Replacing an ix20 is surprisingly tricky because it's small MPV, which most car manufacturers have largely stopped making in favour of SUVs.

To match those requirements we'd suggest the impressive Honda Jazz. It feels just as airy inside and has a high seating position for easy entry. Look for the EX or Advance trims as many come with a large panoramic glass roof, just ensure you check that it’s the opening version, as some were fixed glass. It's self-charging hybrid with a smooth automatic gearbox and it's very easy to drive. It also features Honda's Magic Seats where the rear seat bases flip up like cinema seats, perfect for tall plants or shopping.

Before writing off the ix20, have you looked into dashboard/ECU cluster repair specialists?

Companies like Cartronix or ClusterRepairsUK can often strip your existing unit and replace the failed internal components for £200 – £350, providing a lifetime warranty. It is significantly cheaper than a new unit from Hyundai and avoids the need for coding the car to a new part.
