Hyundai Getz (2002 - 2009) 1.1 SE 3d (06) (2006/06) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Probobly that I'm a skinflint. As it costs little to buy and pennies to run. One of the cheapest cars to run I have ever owned.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

All are very impressed. most people comment of the space and the neatness of the cabin. Everyone who has driven the car comes away very impressed with the ease of driving.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes. It's cheap to buy, costs pennies to run and seems very well put together. Perhaps next time I would consider paying the extra for the CRTDi engine as I am now doing more motorway miles than initially planned and would appriciate the extra economy.

What are you likely to buy next?

Poss Getz 1.5CDRDi CDX+

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£5,995

When did you buy the car?

September 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

My car was the dealers demo, so I saved over £1000 off the retail price for the car despite it only having 3000 miles on the clock.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

What was the dealer like?

Excellent. I have purchased previous cars there and will certainly return again in the future.

What's it like to drive?

Light yet solid. The chassis is stiff enough to soak up bumps whilst ensuring reasonable handling and good feedback for a car in this class.

What's it like to park?

The car makes parking an absolute doddle. The turning circle is most impressive.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Loose washer jet replaced under gurantee at first service.

What's most practical about your car?

The boot is a good useable shape with extra storage below the floor. I also like the wide door openings which make access to the rear of the vehicle easy, despite it being a 3 door.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Carrier bag hooks on the back of the passenger seat and in the boot.
