Advantages: Price, Standard equipment Disadvantages: Plasticky interior
I bought a Hyundai Tucson 2 weeks ago and have found it very good value for money.
I've got the 2.0 CRTD CDX version and it is packed with features. Inside, there are heated front seats, cup holders front and rear, and loads of little handy storage pockets. It even has an under-seat storage tray under the front passenger seat. The music system is an RDS/CD player. There's also a very easy to use climate control which allows you to set the inside ... ...standard equipment also includes electric tilt slide sunroof/mirrors/windows, front fog lamps, cruise control, 6 spoke alloys (with alloy spare), auto-dimming rear-view mirror and compass. The little touch which I felt nice was, in the boot, a luggage net is included stopping your suitcases rolling around. As an optional extra, I went for the security glass in the back and it looks really nice.
The fuel economy hasn't been as good as that published ...

Advantages: Great value and fantastic warranty Disadvantages: a little sluggish
I've had my 2L petrol Tucson for just over a year and have had 20K miles of comfortable, trouble free motoring.
Sure, it doesn't burn-up the BMW at traffic-lights, and it's not as cavernous as the rather uglier Santa Fe, - but it provides a pretty decent compromise, and got me to work in the South Wales Valleys through the recent snow and ice.
The Tucson seats five in comfort, and the high seating and good visability helps stop my children get ...

...much but get past the Hyundai Tucson's boss-eyed headlamps and bulbous bodywork and you have a gem of a 4x4.
The Tucson was launched in the UK in August 2004 and built on Hyundai's reputation for producing cut-price alternatives to the mainstream models. Although it was significantly cheaper when new than a Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V some dismissed the Tucson, predicting that poor residual values would mean it would end up costing more in the long ... ...petrol engines and a diesel, Hyundai also offered buyers the choice of five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmissions. The entry-level 2 litre petrol engine produced 139bhp, enough to power it to 60mph in around 11sec and give a top speed of nearly 110mph.
For buyers unconcerned with off-road ability there was also a two-wheel-drive version offering a saving of £1,000 over the 4x4 equivalent. But sales were only modest and used examples ...
