Summary
What does this car say about you?
I like funky, good looking cars. I refuse to drive a dull dour VW Group box. It's a smart buy, too. 5 years warranty coupled by the low running costs. Clever people buy Aygos. Zombies/sheep buy German cars...
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Like it. Some mock its size. More fool them!
Would you buy this car again and why?
Probably not. Tad small for my growing family.
What are you likely to buy next?
A Yaris maybe. Dealership must improve though.
-
Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£10,040
When did you buy the car?
October 2012
Did you get a good deal and why?
Meh. £400 discount.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Impressed by previous Aygo. Needed a five-door for new baby.
What was the dealer like?
Garbage. Delivery was late and car's condition was poor.
-
Driving it
What's it like to drive?
A slick gearbox and a light clutch makes driving easy. Steering is too heavy for a city car though. Corners okay but struggles on hills due to the engine's lack of torque.
What's it like to park?
Doddle. Visibility is great.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had Aygos for three years and not even a rattle. Faultless.
What's most practical about your car?
Running costs. Zero Tax and 67mpg. Can carry 4 in comfort. Boot is small though.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
LED lights. Air-con and alloys.
