Feeling I'm 20 Again with our new car! Hyundai i20

maglev · 30th June 2009, 23:52

Congratulations Corsa Love, the I20 is not only the most good looking but also amongst the safest cars in the country to be in. (Its got a 5 star euro NCAP rating)!

BTW Did you buy the one equipped with 6 airbags or 2 ??

jaygeetee · 1st July 2009, 00:27

Congrats CorsaLove!!!

Keep the info coming about the car, I am also looking at the i20 and any information will help.

And yeah, don't forget about the pics

+1 on that, I had bought my car from them, the ICICI agent attached to them goofed up on my car loan, but Trident did a good job till delivery then service was done also good.

congrats corsalove. i20 is definately a nice car to have with good amount of features. I'm sure eventually you would start using that car for your long trips as well. Its inevitable. Also interiors are to die for.
good choice mate and all the best for your car. Afterall you deserved it!

Congrates...

Mine was delivered on 23rd June, sad that my internet at home is down :-( :-( hence have not yet been able to upload any photos.. mine is dark metallic gray.. I am enjoying the car to fullest and also the looks the car gets on the road. Once you step inside, you will never feel like you are driving a compact car, my friend who has a corolla even envies the finish quality. Try not to drive too much in the second gear, it drinks oil like water without churning out too much power... and the 3rd gear is enough to drive in anything above bumper to bumper traffic. I always wonder how have the designed the gear box, I can go easily in 60 in 3rd without realising, in 4th I can reach 90 without getting the engine feeling harsh, and the 5th gear can kick in from 40 and take you easily to 120 without any glitches!! Have not tried to go much high because it is in running in period.
After 2000 rpm, you can take on any car on road, including competition compact car(s).

Cheers! and Drive Safe, specially when you are soon going to have an addition to your tribe. My daughter is now 6 months old :-)

Congrats on the new car and doing well professionally. Especially in these times.

We look forward to a detailed ownership report + pictures.

Congrat on i20.... This is the car I wanted buy....
Test drove the same at E-city as my friend decided to buy after I explained him what it has and what others has.
To me it is the best looking,great interior,built premium Hatch back... Only thing missing is diesel engine and hope we get that soon..

Anyway,, enjoy,,, I do envy you....

cheers

Thanks for all the wishes guys. Thanks GTO.

I'm going to post the pictures and detailed report this weekend. As I hinted before, after the car, my targets are increased by the company so dont have enough time to do anything else I guess
