Summary
What does this car say about you?
That I'm cool haha!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Some love it and some hate it. The ones that love it think its a nice looking car and that its cool. The ones that hate it think its too low down and that it's not practical.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Probably not, not because I don't like it. I love it, but I love my cars too much, who knows when I'll settle for just one!?
What are you likely to buy next?
Audi TT, there's no question about it!

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I think its fun to drive! It's not as speedy as some other cars, and the last car I drove (Mini Cooper D) was definitely quicker. But its still not a standard boring car and I do love the way it drives. Also going over bumps is brilliant compared to the mini so I'm not complaining!
What's it like to park?
It's definitely harder to find a parking space where I live because its longer and its all parallel parking, but its not hard to park! You can't see where the car ends but you learn how big your car is anyway!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
It currently needs three of the auxiliary belts changing however altogether the belts will cost about £30 to buy and it will cost me nothing to fix, so for me thats fine!
What's most practical about your car?
The boot is gigantic which is lovely for all my stuff! And the front seats are comfortable and spacious.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
My Hyundai has red leather, which to be honest may not be a big deal, but it is beautiful and I get a lot of comments on my sporty red leather seats! I also love that it locks itself after 5 minutes of being unlocked and no one getting in and how if you leave your head lights on they turn off when you leave the car!
