Wagon gets the nod

MY DAUGHTER and her husband are shopping for a four-cylinder wagon and seem keen on a Hyundai Elantra Sportwagon. Are there any major faults they should know about? Or would you recommend another make?

GENERALLY the Sportwagon was a good car with plenty of features for the price. Hyundai mechanics report the engine starts to use oil once it clocks up 100,000km. Look for a well-cared-for car and get it checked by a mechanic. Also consider a Mazda 626 wagon or a Toyota Camry. It's hard to beat the Camry.
