Toyota IQ (2009 - 2014) 1.0 VVT-i 3d (2012/12) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Another iQ or similar.

Yes

What price did you pay?

£11,500

When did you buy the car?

June 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Just over £100, 2 free services and free mats. Not to mention the 0% APR finance plan.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

High quality small car. Good all-rounder.

What was the dealer like?

Great! The test drive was just the right length to get to know the feel of the car and they were very friendly.

What's it like to drive?

Handles like a much bigger car. It's quiet and refined. Very comfortable to drive on the motorway and will even punch above it's weight in the fast lane. Just remember to drop down to 4th for big hills. You can reach over 65mpg (I've hit 70mpg at one point), without having to try at all.

What's it like to park?

A doddle. This car can fit in spaces which most other cars can't even consider.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nope!

What's most practical about your car?

You're not going to buy this car for practicality but the door bins are huge, there's a cubby underneath the rear seats and another one under the boot. Depending on your height you can fit someone behind the driver. I'm 5' 7" and I can sit behind myself in my driving position (just).

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The sound system is superb. Crystal clear clarity and a very well balanced sound.
