Yesterday’s trip to Farnborough to drive the
all-new Hyundai Santa Fe was notable for two reasons. Firstly, it took me three
hours to get there across the morning rush hour, and then more than that to get
back in the mid-afternoon. No obvious reason, just volume of traffic on the M25
and A1. I’ve concluded there’s no such thing as the morning and evening rush hour anymore, just all-day chaos. Let's hope today's trip to Aston Martin goes better. Thankfully neither road is involved. The second thing was the Santa Fe itself, which is a
very impressive five or seven-seat SUV. It’s easy on the eye, got a functional
but attractive dashboard layout and masses of practicality. The only slightly
let down is access to the third row of seats, which is pretty tight. As I’ve
written before, it’s model that’s pretty popular in rural Suffolk. With the
MkIII now here, I suspect there will be a good few MkIIs on the used forecourts
pretty soon. It’s the Hyundai model with the most repeat buyers.
