WIITTRY FRFE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30. 1985. PAGE 27 Hyundai Stellar From Hyundai, comes Stellar. The car that ad- ds a whole new dimen- sion to the meaning of luxury. The cost of luxury has never been lower. Stellar's body design is by Giugiaro, the genius who bas created a number of outstanding European cars. Stellar's engine and transmission are proven performers because Stellar is already a hit in 21 coun- tries around the world. What lifts this car into the luxury class? The finishing touches, both inside and out. The cut- pile carpeting, for example. The Michelin all-season, steel-belted radial tires (including spare). See ail the luxury features that are stan- dard on the Stellar SL, and even more on the GSL. Here, at last, is the luxury car you can af- ford. To mention a few: Side window demisters and tinted glass all around. Michelin all-season, steel-belted radials. Childproof door locks, a lockable glove box with lamp, aluminum coated muffler, styled steel wheels, rear window defroster, rear seat heater ducts... All standard equip- ment. The top-of-the-line Stellar GSL model has more. It is truly a mar- vel for the money. Front bucket seats are fully adjustable and reclining, with a driver's seat lumbar support. The AM/FM stereo cassette player comes with four speakers. There are power windows, central power door locks and a digital clock. Rear seat passengers even have their own reading lights. The name is Stellar. And the word is luxury. The view from the driver's seat is im- pressive. Stellar's in- strument panel has been designed with great care so that every bit of information you might want is positioned perfectly for quick reference and quick ac- tion. But enough of this talk. Waiting for you is an overhead cam 1600 cc engine, rack-and- opinion steering and power-assisted brakes with front discs. Slip behind the wheel and take Stellar on the town. You'll appreciate the smooth acceleration, the crisp cornering, the sure braking. You'll find the ride to be beautifully quiet. After all, this is a luxury car. The truth is that some of the world's most celebrated automobiles don't offer all the features you'll find on Stellar. How come? Because the Hyundai people have a very basic business approach: of- fer something extra for the money. That's what they've built a car that is unquestionably a fine performer, that is dependable, reliable, comfortable - and luxurious. It has the finishing touches. The extras. The little things that should put the price way up, but don't. Tips to Avoid Unexpected Trouble 'Be sure your cooling system is in good con- dition. You may have made it this far, but the advent of weather changes could bring about failure of a hose, belt or other componen- ts. How long has it been since you checked your anti-freeze/coolant? •How about the con- dition of your tires? Heavy loads at high speeds is hard on tires. To avoid failure make sure they have plenty of tread and are properly inflated. Check them in the morning, when they are cool. •How's your oil? Oil is not only a lubricant, it is a coolant as well. And clean, well-filtered oil will help your engine survive the heat. *Check your tran- smission. This is especially vital if you are towing a trailer. Most automatic tran- smissions share their cooling system with the engine. If you are towing a trailer, you should consider adding a transmission cooler, an inexpensive device you can have installed at most service outlets. •Pay special attention to your battery. Be sure it is properly filled, fully charged. Don't cut your battery's performance. eIf you drive a late model car equipped with a catalytic conver- ter in the exhaust system, avoid parking on a dry, grassy area. The converter (which can get quite hot under even normal conditions) can build up enough heat to set tall grass on fire. (1) Fill the gas tank full and make a note of the mileage on the odometer. (2) Keep a record of all gasoline added during the test period. (3) At the conclusion of the test, again fill the tank full. (4) The gas added during the test plus the gas required to refill the tank at the end of the test is the total used for the test. (5) The gas mileage is equal to the number of miles driven during the test divided by the total gas used. For accuracy, the test should be con- ducted over 600 td 1,000 miles, or three to four tanks of gasoline. MARK /f AUTOMOTIVE & INDUSTRIAL SUPPLY ff (A DIVISION OF 451702 ONTARIO INC.)
