2008 Hyundai Elantra Usados en Venta

We have owned this vehicle for most of its 90k miles. It has always performed well. Aside from maintenance, we have never had to do any major repairs on it, except when we've damaged the body of the vehicle (e.g. two accidents with other vehicles). The vehicle does not get as good of gas mileage as it did at first. At first it was up to 30 mi/gal. Now, it averages about 25 mi/gal. There is hail damage on the vehicle, but since we owned the vehicle at the time of the damage, we were able to use the insurance money to buy a business, instead of having to fix the car.

I purchased this vehicle brand new in 2009. It was a very reliable car for the first 8 years. I used the car primarily to regularly drive long distances. I was driving 160 miles, round trip, five days a week to go to college. It was the perfect car for these commutes. It is comfortable, though small, perfect for a single driver. For many years the car drove very smoothly, and other than general maintenance, it required very little upkeep. Unfortunately, the car is in a state now where one thing after another is breaking down. I was expecting this car to run smoothly for a lot longer than 8 years, and I am disappointed that purchasing a brand new car does not ensure that it will last longer than even 10 years. Had I been making payments on the car, it is likely I may not have even paid it off yet, and I am already finding myself in the position to have to buy a new car.
