UKHAC
UKHAC stands for UK Hyundai Accent Club. It is currently operating as a website and forum for Hyundai Accent owners in the UK, although the forum also contains members from many other countries including the USA and Malta. The club offers free advice and support for Hyundai Accent owners, whether their car is of standard specification, or has been modified.

History
The UKHAC was created in October 1998 after it's founder Phil Monk decided that there was a need for a specific owners club for the Hyundai Accent in the UK. The lack of a Haynes Manual for the earlier Hyundai Accent's and the cost of dealership charges were some of the reason for creating the club. The original website contained just a forum (using phpBB) which was free to join, but was unfortunately hacked and "wiped" several times over the next few years. In 2005 the control of the club was taken over by Stuart Black and in 2006 the forum software was changed (due to the problems backing up and restoring the phpBB forum software) to the YaBB forum software. Since the software and owner change, the UKHAC has still remained free to join and relatively bug-free.
