First of all hi everyone !.

I picked up my new silver i10 classic today.

First of all the i10 is a really easy car to drive with a nice light clutch action, ideal for city stop start driving.

The steering weight is just right, not too light not too heavy.

The car is refined for such a tiny car.

The cars 6 speaker CD player is very good for a free stereo and the radios signal strength is excellent.

The air con is very good and is quiet and blows out very strong on full power.

One thing that really astounds me is the interior space !. Someone who is 6ft like me often finds in cars that their head touches the roof ( really annoying ! ), but in the i10 there is lots of headroom. The front seat passenger has an enormous amount of leg room, I don't know how they have managed this one !. Rear seat passengers can travel in comfort as well. The boot space is larger than you would think and can easily take a very large food shop in it.

All in all I think this is the best value car on the market today. The spec is amazing for the money and with a 5 year warranty you can't go wrong.

I haven't had a chance to try out the lights, wipers, heater etc but I will report back in a few days with an update.

Yeah I know ! i've been driving cars with 2L engines and above and my fuel bills have been horrific at the speeds we drive at over here !. So I thought I would buy a 'sensible' car this time !.

Update -

Headlights - Nice and bright and the range is very good.

Wipers - Work very well nice and smooth action.

Heater - Seems to work well, but its not cold enough yet to properly test.

So all in all I can't find anything wrong with my i10 ! highly unusual for me with a car !
