I'll give it a go.
they have the i10, (which is more like the Getz I guess, same kind of size & power) , then the i20, and i30, which go up in size and power, though not by much.
I went for it mainly because , well it came with more, seemed a better buy, after-sales package seemed strong, 5 years parts etc.. and because I'm scrapping my old car, my old nissan, I'm getting a 2500 discount off it.
I looked at the new Nissans, Fords, VW, all nice , but there's not much in it these days, and I found myself asking why they cost so much more, some almost double. Took a few out to test drive , and didn't find a huge difference to be honest. I found that really what I was paying for was more the name than anything else.
As for money I'm trying to be smarter, I guess, plus I live in London, I don't need a big salon, just pointless no room to park them anywhere, I've grown accustomed to driving smaller cars.
I was so very tempted at the new Mini Coupe, hehehe but I am trying to save for a deposit on a house, so, its kinda one or the other.
I did try to convince Wifey we could live in it, but she wasn't convinced :p
