I'm glad I bought this automatic as it's absolutely wonderful!

My last car was a 1.6 Ford Sportka which was 18 months old when I bought it used with 12,000 on the clock. This 1.3 Hyundai Getz automatic, my first, was bought used in January 2019 - one year ago at 14 yrs old with 15,000 on the clock and a private number plate. It has sailed through every Mot with a clean bill of health - that's 12 in total with the most recent one having no advisories!

Concerning fuel economy, it's a 4 speed automatic which can be set to be a 3 speed. However, since 4th gear is o/drive that would be pointless as the handbook recommends using 4th to benefit fully for fuel economy purposes. My last car returned about 28mpg overall. Both insurance and road tax are cheaper than my last car and I would have no hesitation in recommending this model to anyone as it came with full service history - most important when buying second-hand!
