Vehicle Reviews

"So far, it has been an excellent first car that is easy and cost-effective to run."

"Small but doesn’t feel that small when u sit in it. The back seats are comfortable too. Very good on fuel economy. Happy to have purchase this car."

"What was important? Having low mileage was important to us as we keep our cars for their lifespan, so we have an expectation for the vehicle to last body wise and structurally for at least 10 to 15 years. We purchased a newish towing vehicle last year, but have since moved 80kms out of Dunedin so could not justify the fuel expense or wear and tear on that vehicle long term as its primary use is towing our horses around. While this car was older in age than we had planned on purchasing we felt that the low kms outweighed the age of it, as the car condition wise looked like a new car and we travel 160kms 3 times a week so will quickly rack up the kms on it. How is it performing for us? So far the car has met our expectations saving us around 30% on our weekly travel costs. We have used our first tank of fuel and we travelled 603 km's and it cost $70 in fuel to top up. In town and around our village it happily drives in EV mode. It is a nice car to drive, very comfortable as driver or passenger in the front (we haven't travelled in the back seats), has sufficient power to hold its own on the open road and the boot is a reasonable size for the average shopping trip. The stereo we paid to upgrade to is also excellent. What are the not so positive points? The only negatives in the car is it is very hard to see the front bumper for parking so you have to get to know your distances, and the reversing camera is not as sophisticated as our other car which you can see to within a centimetre, but again that is something that you just get used to, and as these cars are not towing vehicles it is not important or worth upgrading the camera for."
