Description

Do not ask if available. The ad will be taken down as soon as it's sold! Open to any reasonable offers, but I will ignore any lowballing (e.g. "I'll give you $1000 cash today", etc). Mileage may still go up a bit since I am using it as my daily driver.

2008 Hyundai Accent L (2-dr hatchback) 5-speed Manual Transmission

It's a great little fuel-efficient car (full tank for about $50) and for learning to drive a manual.

Was oil sprayed...underbody and frame in excellent condition, which is rare as most are rusted or rotting out (see photo of underbody).

Maintenance done in August of 2024 (216,000 km): 4 new tires (only 2000km put on them before the winters were put on), alignment, front pads and rotors, rear shoes and drums, spring kit, exhaust flex pipe and O2 sensor, front wheel bearings, timing belt, power steering belt, air filter, spark plugs, new windshield, new gas cap (I accidently walked into the old one), new driver's door handles. I also bought a cargo cover since it didn't come with the base model.

What needs fixing: Left side mirror (swivel was broken in the accident, hence the tape...replacements are about $30 avg on auto-part, but shell is transferrable). P0650 code (I can send a screenshot from my BlueDriver app): Air bag light is on, but no SRS codes...it says it can be fixed by replacing the bulb on the gauge cluster. No other fault codes.

Shouldn't need anything else for safety.

Was involved in a minor accident in January, but only minor cosmetic damage on the driver's door and mirror. No structural or major damage (see below; I can send pictures if requested).

Oil changed every 3000 km. Latest oil and filter change at 227,886 on April 23rd, 2025.

It would make an excellent delivery car. Very cheap on insurance. CD player and comes with Winter tires on separate rims (depending on sale price). Spare tire in the trunk. The clutch is still in good condition.

Selling it since I need a bigger vehicle.

Can throw in a few extras (depending on the selling price): Aftermarket head unit with wiring harness adaptor. BNIB NGK iridium spark plugs and SKF timing belt kit (for next maintenance interval). ______________________________

Compatible with Beta II 2.0l Engine swap (could make an excellent little sleeper with this and a mild turbo):
