Korea move

We decided that our 04 VW Golf needed replacing whilst it still had some value, but VW was not able to offer a reasonable deal, so I remembered your recommendations of Hyundai. It was easy for me to remember as, many years ago when I was with the army in Korea, I passed through the village of Hyundai each week. We went to the local dealer in Hull and after a test drive in an i30 were very impressed and quickly did a deal. We have now had it for 3 months and remain impressed with its comfort, handling and comprehensive equipment. Thanks.

It's actually made, not in Korea, but in the newest car factory in the world, near Nosovice, not far from Ostrava in the Czech Republic.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
