Well alot has changed in 24hrs with my 2nd car.
The deal to purchase the 2009 i10 Style has changed.
A big thanks goes to Mr vRStu for stepping in, and making a quick phonecall to his brother, who unbeknown to me, is senior Sales manager at Richmonds of Portsmouth.(Hyundia dealer)
Well ive ended up with a Brand new car order of an 11 plate Hyundia i10 Active. Retails at £8700 normally, and placed the order for a total of £7384!!
Ive decided on Crystal White, with all extra's except sunroof. Cant get over what a great little car this is!.This thing has as much room in the back for rear passengers as the golf
This is the new facelift model that was realised on the 1st of March. Has the new engine fitted with VVTi technology. Does an abosolute stonking 61mpg!!, or around 50+ around town.Comes with Full roadside AA cover as part of the package from Hyundia.
Insurance group 2 so its rather cheap to insure
. Road tax is the bit that makes me laugh............... £20 for a full year
. Goes up to £30 from year 1 on. 5 year warranty from Manufactures too. Ive arranged Return to invoice for £110 on the t'internet , which in the event of a right -off or car gets stolen, i get the full price back i payed for it at point of sale. So in a part finance agreement , i wont loose out or be out of pocket, should the worse happen.
All of 85bhp
but as an economical way of city travel, it doesnt get much better.
Ive put down £2000 cash towards the cost to bring re-payments down, which when i added up the sums, is cheaper to do this rather then burn nearly £200 a month in super unleaded in the golf as a daily car.
Phylis is gonna be basically the weekend fun bus, whilst the i10 will do the school runs, take Mrs Saint to and from work everyweek.
After speaking to Southampton Hyundia again today, they checked out the deal that Portsmouth Hyundia arranged, and its made Richmonds -£7
So thanks again Stu for your help, and please thank your brother for the very generous business
