In their own words

I bought my Hyundai Getz as a cheap run around while looking for a nice car. I have always bought Mercedes and it takes a bit of time to find a nice low mileage one so while I was looking bought a cheap run around thinking it would last a few months get me to work and back etc until I found a Mercedes. I have had this car now two months and during that time it required an MOT well no problem went straight through wanting nothing not even a windscreen wiper - amazing. The Getz starts first time every time, i can leave it safely anywhere train stations etc and not have to worry. My little Getz is a silver 3 door and while not the biggest car is very easy to drive with a smooth gear change and light steering. Its easy to park to because you can basically see pretty much around the car. The boot is on par with similar sized cars such as Clio's and Micra's etc. It is very cheap to run £20 for the month admittedly i do not go far but it returns high 40's to the gallon. Tyres are cheap to so is insurance group 2 I think and road tax not the cheapest but the rest make up for it. Everything still works except the wing mirror which is my fault I knocked it off. The seats are OK but as you would expect not the most supportive but if you want a town car thats cheap to run and insure with low repair costs and reliable then the Hyundai Getz is definitely worth a look because they are a bargain and well under rated. i would buy another one and currently have reduced the amount of searching I am doing for my next Mercedes deciding instead to wait and see what happens with the Brexit and then start looking again. I would recommend this car to students or townie drivers it will get you where you want to go and do it quietly and reliably. Very impressed with this little car
