Hyundai Santa Fe 2001: Is it good for touring?

IT SEEMS you've bought a well-maintained car in good condition -- a great start. It's impossible to say nothing will go wrong with it, but the Santa Fe is a generally reliable and robust car so the chances are minimal. I strongly recommend you have it serviced.

Diesel will do you

THE diesel will be fine with an auto, and I haven't had any bad reports about Hyundai auto transmissions in recent times.

My first car

BUYING used is not going to cost you as much as buying new, but you need to know about cars or have the help of someone who does. Otherwise, buy new and get the security of a warranty. The new car will also be safer. Generally they have more safety features built into them and will probably use less fuel than an older car. Look at the Mazda 2, Toyota Yaris, Nissan Tiida, Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Getz and VW Polo.
