Well, I was given a Hyundai. I won it in a lottery

Dealer offered to swap it for something else if I wanted, but my wife and I drove it and liked it well enough.
It had two power steering failures (which as the dealer told me were the only 2 cases for all the hundreds of I10s he sold) but otherwise it is trouble free, and surprisingly roomy for such a small car.

Plus the feeling of driving around in a free car is invaluable

IMHO current Hyundais are not worse than Japanese cars, and often better than their European counterparts. JDPower etc. confirm that.
