Hi from Cyprus

#1

Post by AshCY »

Hi folks,

Ash here, Ex Pat living and working in Limassol, Cyprus.

I've always really wanted a Hyundai Coupe but never really got around to it in the UK. Now I'm here I thought why not! So picked myself one up.

It's a 2004 which I think makes it a Gen3, for which I paid an eye watering €3,500 (£2,750 in todays exchange rates). Used cars are a lot more expensive over here but to be fair I'll get €3,000 for it in a year so the depreciation works for me too.

It has a couple of niggles but overall is in good condition (Only 65,000 miles) and she's lovely to drive. Thirsty as hell though! Not too much of an issue since Cyprus is small.

Anyway, here she is!

Yep there's a couple of them around. Mostly Gen 2, seen a couple Gen 3 but none of the Tiii ones.

Doubt you'll be able to hire one sadly, can always take mine for a spin, some truly incredible roads in this country! I can basically drive 5 minutes from my house and then drive on roads that make the alps look poo for about 150 miles...

I've driven in Cyprus a couple of times. Fantastic roads and scenery.
And they drive on the proper side :happy-partydance:
