I'm scottish with a Korean Accent.

Advantages: Spacious and good looking exterior. Also good handling.
Disadvantages: Interior is a bit shoddy!!!

...Right, with uni, a job and a child, it was time to get my own car. There was just no way that sharing my mum?s ford KA was feasible anymore. So, in June 2004 I dragged my long suffering dad along to help me buy my first car. It had been a long time coming. I was 17 when I passed my test and being nearly 20 I thought it about time. I figured out that I had a ?spare? £100 per month to throw around, it would just have been spent on junk anyway and with my dad agreeing to pay the insurance my maximum expenditure was around £4000. Searching. Before dragging my poor old daddy around to actually buy a car, I dragged poor old Drewboy around many a car garage in the rain hail and snow. I know nothing about car?s and would probably be taken for a fool in the car garage!! The Hyundi Accent was always in the back of my mind as my mum had...

Review of Hyundai Accent 1.3

Practice Makes An Almost Perfect Accent

Advantages: Newer models are more comfortable and reliable
Disadvantages: Still not as comfortable as any of the French cars

...UPDATE: Since I first wrote this review, my husband got a third Accent (2000) from work and I started to warm up to these cars. When my old Peugeot finally died on me, I went looking to replace it and lo and behold, what did I buy but a 2002 Hyundai Accent. Yes, over time, Hyundai has improved this product vastly. So below, please find my original review, and my updates - which I have marked with the following symbol § to make it clear that this is the updated part. (By the way, the original title to this review was: They should pay ME to drive this car) My husband has now had two of these cars issued to him from work. The first was a 1997 and now we have a 1998. Believe me, I've tried to enjoy driving this car, but I just can't. Here's why: Comfort: This is the main bone of contention with this car (§ for models prior to...

Review of Hyundai Accent 1.5

ascend with the accent

Advantages: Cheap, reliable, different, fun to drive
Disadvantages: bad image, hard to mod if thats your thing, terrible clutch

...The first time i saw my mothers red hyundai accent 1.3 i was horrified mainly due to the colour and the fact it was a hyundai this was back in the 90's when cars where still round and not square 96 i believe. Hyundai or not i was still going to drive it and when i did oh yeah it was a fun right and the engine at the time was the highest bhp compared to similar engine sizes. I then decided to buy my own but why have the 1.3 for just a few hundred more green ones i could have the 1.5 mvi ( 98) i bought it yellow for only 2500 with only 28000 on the clock best bargian of my life (to date) i love this car have since driven other cars including a 2 litre 306 a 1.6 and 2 litre corolla corsas clios fiestas and all that tat but none compare to my hyundai. the ride is smooth the brakes are ace the engine puts out enought power to...

Review of Hyundai Accent 1.5

hyundai accent 1.5 MVI fantastic!!

Advantages: sporty look, fun to drive, cheap to insure
Disadvantages: electrics can go wrong, underrated!

...this car is fantastic! after searching for months for the car i wanted i fell in love with a hyundai accent 1.5 MVI. its got so many good points! firstly the only way i can describe the drive is fun! a 1.5 MVI dual overhead cam engine in a big small car! its so fun to drive its unbelieveable. change gear at the right times and you'll suprised at the intial accleration from them! not to forget the shorter change gearbox for quicker gear changes and the fun learning to drive round roundabouts, i still havent conquered this one yet! i will warn you though that the indicators and windscreen wiper controls are opposite as the cars from japan, it took me a little while to get used to this much to the amusement of other drivers while i sprayed my windscreen and wiped them to let people out at junctions! another thing is to make sure that...

Review of Ludwig Accent Outfits Drumkit

Definitely an American accent!

Advantages: Great to sing along to and very catchy
Disadvantages: All the songs blend in together and sound the same

...1st of all, I have to point out what catches when you first hear it - the American accent. It is extremely strong much like Blink 182. I love it myself, but some don't. All the songs focus on love and usually a broken heart. The songs do sound kid of the same, but I do think they're all great, so don't let it put you off. The album cover isn't anything to write home about - just an old bike thing. There are 11 songs on the album. It was released on 1st October 2002 and I love it :) Below are the songs on the album, each described: 1. My paper heart (3:49) This song is saying that he has a weak heart, and you shouldn' t play with it. It's upbeat and the catchiest on the album. Good lyrics are 'Please just don't play with me, my paper heart will bleed' and 'tied to a dream of being with you' 2. Your star (4:21) A much slower...

Review of All-American Rejects, The - All-American Rejects (The)

Sixties brilliance with a scottish accent

Advantages: Connery at this best
Disadvantages: You'll think of Austin Powers when you see this

...a truly international cast?. Sean Connery IS Bond; he looks a little older and a little heavier than the previous film Thunderball. What I found interesting is that his Scottish accent is stronger than in the previous four films. Donald Pleasance plays Blofeld, the ultimate enemy of Bond and Head of Spectre. This is the first time that we have seen Blofeld on screen, Pleasance plays him with a scar down the right hand side of his face in a more dangerous and psychotic manner. Akiki Wayabayashi plays Aki, the girl that Bond meets at the Sumo match. Even though she is the eye candy for the film, she does do a good job of being a Bond girl and you do feel that her character and Bond have a spark. Tiger Tanaka is played by Tetsuro Tamba, a well known Japanese film actor. This was one of the only times that he appeared in an English...

Full marks for reliability........

Advantages: Perky peformance,Reliability,equipment,Running costs
Disadvantages: Cheap interior.Mpg could be improved.No diesel in the range

...I am at the moment looking for a car that it is going to get me from A to B happily.I do not own a Accent at present but this is based on a neighbours car which i was planning to test drive.I asked him all about the Accent and he seemed pretty happy with his apart from a few niggles Fuel Consumption: fuel consumption was quite poor and didnt stand up to rivals.As i was looking for a car mainly to be used in town i was look for top marks.His Accent also done extreemly poor in the NCAP crash test.(2 star).The crash test results didnt bother me in the slightest as i was not planning to crash into anything. So far so good.I was lucky enough to borrow it for a week while he was on holiday which was a real bonus!.I was happy with how the car peformed on the road as it was quick from the lights for a 1300cc.The one thing i have to moan...

Review of Hyundai Accent 1.3

Decent chick flick with some dodgy accents!

Advantages: Easy watching, decent adaptation, good characters, funny and emotional
Disadvantages: Dodgy accents, a lot of changes from the book

...Advantages: sad and funny in turns, decent adaptation Disadvantages: dodgy accents, a lot of changes from the book ~~Stuff and nonsense about the book ~~ As Hollywood adaptations go, this is a fairly good one. I've read the book, and did enjoy it and so I was ready to be disappointed by the film. Surprisingly, it made me laugh, and the characters were a good representation of Cecelia Aherns characters from the book. ~~The Story~~ Holly lives with her husband Gerry in New York, they are happy but broke, both struggling to make ends meet and thinking about having a child. Tragedy strikes when Gerry is told he has a brain tumour and is given a short time to live (this is left out of the film,the first scene shows Gerry and Holly arguing and making up, the next is of Gerrys funeral). What happens next keeps Hollys memories...

Review of P.S. I Love You (DVD)

New Sound for a Great Band

Advantages: Very Original
Disadvantages: A few weaker songs

...This CD has two of the most beautiful ballads ever, Southern Accents is a tribute to southern life, and The Best Of Everything is the moving story of a man thinking back to an old love wondering where she is. They both showcase his voice in a way it's not usually used, and it works well. Also making the cut is the highly unusual "Don't Come Around Here No More" which is perhaps best known for it Alice in wonderland on acid video. It is however a very original, and catchy song. Make It Better(Forget About Me) is another track that I listen to a lot in which a frustrated man attempts to break it off with an overly possessive woman to whom he makes the comment, "honey your the judge, they're ain't no jury, and I'm just an innocent boy used to being guilty." Other tracks include the sarcasm laden Spike, in which Petty pokes fun...
