Hyundai i20 hatchback

The Hyundai i20 is the forgotten car in Hyundai's small car range but like its siblings, the i10 and i30, it has a lot to offer, especially for someone looking for a small-to-mid-size supermini. The i20 received a facelift in 2012, which gave the car some much-needed sparkle and some welcome character. The interior is still more focused on function than style, and while some plastics look and feel a little cheap, the cabin is logically laid out and easy to use. Now coming in four versions, with prices starting at £9,995 - and including the super-efficient Blue model - the Hyundai i20 is worth a look if you are after a credible alternative to the likes of the Suzuki Swift and Nissan Micra. It's especially great value for money when compared to the updated Ford Fiesta, and there are great deals to be had.
