To be fair, it's a reasonable price, go and check, the 1.2 auto has an RRP of £9180, and the cheapest broker price I've seen so far is £8.5K (still 22% more then he paid)..
AT prices shows the 2 cheapest in the country second hand are £7K..
It's only a poor price compared to new if you change the 'new' model to a manual gearbox (did I just say that?
)
No, as on a new one you can get 0% finance. He is paying £9,500 for it, £1,000 MORE than a new one.
I think your obsessed with your car
What has my car got to do with it? Which one?

Lol that's disgusting.

For 2-3k you could have had a fiesta which does the job far better and is just as cheap to run and had the other 7k to spend on holidays ect

A 4k fiesta would do a much better job, have a better engine and be better built than this dross, but mind saying that it wouldn't have the warranty, so if 5.5k worth of things went wrong with it in the next year he would be in trouble.
This one is second best. The camoe scammer thread is the best.- Thread of August 2010 award.
Well you suggested I have only ever owned dross, so didn't appreciate the softness and comfort of seats like yours.....
For a car that spends most it life looking for a parking space in tesco, is comfort and how many buttons your dash has important ?
0% on a new one would have increased payments by over £100 a month, and I didn't really want to pay that
Well to coin a phrase 'as long as you're happy with it!' ...I know I'd probably be crying myself to sleep tonight spending all than on a Hyundai shoe
Yet I keep looking out the window to check that I really did just by a a great British luxury saloon car for less than £7k ...and that it is in fact not a rusty heap with more problems than the United Nations.
I'm not knocking you're car per say, I'm just struggling to understand the thought process that lead you to thinking it was a good idea to spend all that on what is essentially the motoring equivalent of a microwave.
I mean, look at what you 'could' have had! ...I know it's not what you want and isn't suitable for what you want really, but ...it does show how much money you have wasted to basically go to Tesco or pick the kids up from school.

There aren't many thread which have a 100% 'wtf' post record - you'll be going down in OcUK history I reckon Flukester.
Thats the idea
Obvious troll is obvious.Thats the idea
But you HAVE paid that, MORE than that, just over the course of more months/bigger balloon payment/deposit.
You've fallen into the best trap ever.
Basing it on "per month" payments and not at the actual overall cost.
I may be blind, but I don't see the 0% offer you are mentioning? Hyundai are showing 5.9% APR on their new car offers?
And yes, I'm just arguing for the Lulz on this one.. it has to be a wind up!!!
Using this reasoning I would imagine you have plastic garden chairs in your lounge?Is sitting at traffic lights your idea of money worth spending on ?
Sitting on a seat in X car feels much the same as sitting in a seat in Y car, especially when stationary... unless you have a incredibly sensitive *&^
But does a 2200mile i10 drive much worse than a new one ?
It seemed a no brainer to me
