Hyundai i10 Hatchback (2008 - 2013) 1.2 Active 5d (2011/11) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

We're of an age where image is not important. So what this car says about us is not important. But we would hope that all people start to realise that size does not matter when it comes to cars. And the i10 proves this, especially with its spacious intereior.

We have a very tall neighbour. When we gav e him a lift, he was very surprised by the amount of interior space and headroom.

We would definitely buy this car again. It has all of the bells and whistles that we would ever need.

We'll be keeping this car for many years, so can't say what we might buy next. But we wouldn't rule out buying another i10.

Down-sizing and for my daughter to learn to drive affordably.

The dealer was the most approachable that we've ever experienced. No hard sell and excellent customer service. This definitely swayed us in their favour.
