2010 Hyundai i10 1.1
Summary:
Great little Korean
Faults:
A/C stopped working.
General Comments:
This small car is worth its money. Comes with most electric conveniences like 4 electric windows and mirrors. Sound system is adequate. It's a fun car to drive wildly around town, but with its very powerful 50kW/99Nm you will hardly get into any trouble with its sharp brakes and handling. It is however terrible on long distances. Overtaking requires you to put the car into sports mode, which is engaged by sticking the gear lever into 3rd and flooring the accelerator. That is the only thing I don't like about this car.
It is very well built and hasn't given a day's problem save for the A/C that packed up.
Changing a headlight light bulb requires you go to the dealer. I wanted to do it myself and did, but the car manual states (you won't believe this) that the front bumper has to be removed. I struggled for 2 hours to remove the headlight housing.
Overall it's a good city car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
