What are 2008 Hyundai Santa Fes like? We need a seven-seater as we have four young kids. Is the automatic ok?

Hi Garry,
It’s a really good car – reliable, roomy and not at all bad to drive. You just need to watch a couple of things – the stereo system can go a bit haywire from time to time (not recognising radio stations, or spitting out CDs, that kind of thing), the third row seats are pretty tight and quite small and the automatic gearbox, although fine to drive, does significantly drive the CO2 emissions rating up, so check and make sure you can afford the annual motor tax first.
