Hyundais are a recession car I think. Cheap to run, cheap to buy and you get to hold onto your superiority complex for driving a bigger car

Before the recession it was all Land Rover Sport Vogue with PRNDLtronic gearbox because you was too good for such a lowly activity for plebs as changing gears yourself
