Genesis cars?

[Quartz]

What do OCUKers think of Genesis Cars? They're the luxury marque of Hyundai and Kia but not available from those dealers. They have a dealer-free business model. They're not quite ready to travel as far as Aberdeen.

I had a sit in the G80 Sport and, were it not for the sun roof it would have been very nice. They have a very Bentley vibe, not surprisingly their designer used to work there.

They certainly aren't lookers.

Some weird engine details there. 2l petrol, 2.5l petrol, 3.3l petrol, 3.5l petrol...da furq?

The G80 Sport looked gorgeous.

The G80 Sport looked gorgeous.

Looks like a Chinese knockoff of a Mazda 6

I really like the looks the G70 Shooting Brake looks amazing from the side. The prices aren't actually all that bad either.

I think the looks are great compared to all others at the moment I think they could stir up the UK now they're heading our way!

The ownership model sounds great, especially for the first 5 years.

...but, when I pick one up at 10 years old on the second hand market for a few grand and run it for a further 10 years am I going to be assigned a "personal assistant" to sort out my servicing for me? If the service falls off a cliff for used customers that would have a massive impact on the depreciation, which I assume would already be pretty hefty.
