Buying new Hyundai i10
On your recommendation, we bought a new, top of the range, 2009 Hyundai i10 Automatic with the Kappa engine and 27,000 km later are still delighted with it.
Dimensions and turning circle suit our restricted parking and it's great on 1500 km runs.
A little cash has become available and we could now buy the updated version. Are the improvements real or do they add complications that could bring future problems?

The car is pretty much the same apart from the styling. Also worth checking out the Suzuki Splash 1.2 auto and the Vauxhall Agila 1.2 auto that are a little more upright and very easy to get in and out of.
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.
