  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I am on a three-week trip to the Czech Republic with a couple of days in Poland. Hyundai and Kia have a growing presence here, with a number of models that compete very well with their native Skoda brand, that is now owned by Volkswagen.

The Hyundai and Kia models sold here are not available in the US, but they are doing very well. Last year at this time I was here and rarely saw anything from Korea and nothing from Japan, except in Prague. This is an amazing feat in a country where the Skoda brand is like a national institution. Their models range from sub-sub compacts to luxury sedans used by diplomats, and their main factory is the oldest auto plant in continuous production in the world.

Way to go, Hyundai (and Kia)!
