Just Czeching

I own a 2003 Volvo V70 automatic. I now qualify for the Motability scheme, which is very tempting. The thought of having worry-free motoring appeals to me. Motability has obtained an offer on the Hyundai i30 automatic diesel (an automatic is essential). You've often reported favourably on Korean cars and to be frank car snobbery has never been my thing. I am 6 feet tall and weigh 20 stones (dieting, honest). I'd be grateful for your opinion as to its suitability. The reliability of the car doesn't worry me too much. Any maker that can give such long warranties must be good. Another point that appeals is that the dealer is local (Torbay) and they operate a delivery and collection scheme for servicing etc. Keep up the good work on oppressive government treatment of motorists.
