Hyundai i10, Tiny hit

The time seems right for the volume Korean brands with already keen pricing mated to the government scrappage incentive seeing people rushing to dealers in their old cars. And the i10 seems to be the car everyone's after, its sales increasing by a quite staggering 662 percent in Germany when a similar government scrappage scheme was introduced. Another small car winner then for those wanting diminutive, economical transport, with the government and Hyundai's scrappage contribution the i10 will be available in Hyundai dealers for less then £5,000.

Even before the introduction of the scrappage scheme Hyundai was doing very nicely in spite of the economic conditions, buyers recognising its value-laden package and brilliant warranty offerings. With the i10 and its larger relatives also all offered on finance packages you could drive home in a new car leaving your old one behind for as little as £85 a month.
