After 7 months and 5,000 km from the day I bought my Hyundai i10 car in Egypt I have formed kind of a picture on the pros and cons of the i10 in particular as it applies to owning and driving one in Egypt.
Pros
What I love about the i10 is its small size which enables it to easily park in small spaces and make it able to successfully penetrate between closely standing cars in a narrow street through which cars with larger bodies fail.
Other things I like about the i10 is its maneuverability, general smoothness of drive and its strong breaks. The i10 simply provides you with good control as you drive.
Cons
Although the i10 is cool to drive and indeed can go fast (I've tried it up to 140 km/hour), yet still it is basically a city car. If you travel a lot or you work far from your home then you ought to aim for a larger more powerful car. The i10 is not designed for travelling or for daily long distances. Yet it could be perfect for in-city driving.
Furthermore, the i10 would drive amazingly smooth on a good read, like in the case of my trip to Ain Sokhna where the road is amazingly well constructed, yet it performs poorly on badly constructed roads which unfortunately is the case in the large part of Egypt. Going over a lot of speed bumps, road irregularities and obstructions makes the ride feel uncomfortable with the i10.
