Hi all,
I am thinking of getting a 2nd-hand car and is looking at Sonata EF 2.0 Gold Edition 'cause it is like jaguar-esque. lolz! I think it can be purchased at about 38k for a 1.5-2 year old. However, I have trouble finding the brochure / specification for this model, so would appreciate if anyone can direct me to it.
Other than that, this is also my first time buying a car, are there anything anyone would like to enlighten me on? Specifically, on FC of the car, safety, warranty/parts availability and all the red tape when transferring the ownership.
CHEERS~~!

Hmm, you buying from a private seller or from those car marts that sell 2nd hand cars?
Normally if you purchase from private seller, one of the few things you must note of its the servicing history of the Sonata. Make sure servicing is done regularly and note the mileage of the car. Others to look out for is the condition of the exterior, esp if the owner says he has nv been in a accident b4. A quick glance at the surface will tell you, its easier said than done and sometime requires abit of skill to note the smallest dents, uneven surfacing etc.
As for spare parts, Hyundai spares shld be realtively cheap and widely available given that there are quite a number of Hyundai's on the roads nowadays.

If thru agent, then normally either the selling party pays the agent comms or the comms has already been factored into the selling price.
