1989 Hyundai Excel

Everything works but needs new light bulb for 1 taillight and 1 headlight
167,175 kilometers
Manual transmission
Good engine (was replaced shortly before we aqcuired the car)
Passed emissions test (most recent was last November)
Official gas mileage is 26 kilometers per liter, but I've never bothered to see how close reality is to "official."

We have driven this car for 4 years without problems... it's a reliable vehicle.

Located in Suwon

How much for the 600,000 won?

[3baekwon]

I'm really sad. It took me forever to get that. ... Time for a long vacation out of the country, I think.

Anyway, my husband says I've asked too much for the car. I tend to add my own personal value to things I want to sell. (Which is why I still have an extra refrigerator and washer/dryer - I couldn't bring myself to sell either of them for the price the buyer was offering. So now they just sit here in my house taking up space.) Sorry.

So 450,000 anyone?

where are you located? I am not familiar with the city that you listed.

[3baekwon]

SuWon is a city on the outskirts of Seoul to the south

scrab it. its too old.

[3baekwon]

We might.... But it still runs well and hasn't ever given us any problems. It seems like a waste to just throw it away. If no one is interested in it, that is exactly what we will have to do though. We just haven't told her (the car) yet. I'm not sure how she'll take the news....

Well, come this month around the twenty-fifth I'll give you 375 for the car If no one else buys it. I live in Suwon too

[internjim]

A 20 year old Korean car?!

Restore that baby and $profit$!

Look what's going on with the Hyundai Ponys these days!

[zakuta]

Won 200,000 if no one else buys it. I can come over to Suwon to pick it, live in Seoul. Would not scrab this baby if i were you

[3baekwon]

Ok... We have 400... Going once. Do I hear 425?

PS. The red warning light that you see in the photo is not a problem - it's because the key was in the ignition but not started. Hmmm. Or it could be showing that the door is open. Anyway, it's not a problem. Notice also that it's not an empty tank of gas.

I would love to keep this car and fix it up as another poster suggested, but I think we'll have to wait quite a few more years before it does what the pony has done. There aren't tons of Excels on the roads, but it's not that rare to spot one, either.

[3baekwon]

Going twice...

[zakuta]

200,000!!!
