Hyundai - The GREATEST vehicle manufacturer LIARS!

I purchased a brand new Hyundai i20 1.4 Auto Fluid (2012 model) in September 2012, after having sold my VW Scirocco. I was sold at the time in terms of Hyundai's amazing claims of 4.8Litres / 100Kms and every Hyundai salesman I spoke to reiterated the same to me with a straight face! I do long distance travel quite often and I drive at a constant speed of between 100 - 120km/h. Not surprisingly, my 'brilliant' i20 was producing figures of 8 - 9litres per 100kms! I then gave it some time and sent the vehicle in for a service at 15 thousand kms. I now sit in a situation whereby after having done 22 000 kms, with long distance travel, the vehicle still does not give me ANYTHING close to 4.8Litres to a 100kms! If I am lucky I get 450kms on a tank of fuel which is absolutely ridiculous seeing as Hyundai claimed that its i20 should be giving close to 800kms per tank!

Additionally, the vehicle is -8months young and the rear shocks squeak over every bump - as though they are completely worn out!!! I ONLY drive on decent roads and I am a careful driver as well, so what is this Hyundai??? Furthermore, the vehicle has already picked up rust on the body!!!

I am SO DISAPPOINTED!!!
