I have been on the market to buy myself a new car, and I was looking for a vehicle which was economical to driv. I was looking for a cute, fun, dependable car that packed a punch- something like my personality- that is when I decided to get a hatchback.

I searched many car dealerships and came across a hatchback that I really liked: the Indica.

I am a woman and the majority of us are not too concern with the intricate details of a car, just as long as it is reliable, has low fuel consumption and has a good price tag, so needless to say I was really excited about my find.

The Vista on the outside is just what I had imagined a smallish car which is well rounded and appealing to the eye. But when I took a peek inside I liked the interior even better. The speedometer and the petrol gauge were in the middle of the dash board, which makes the car seem very. The car is a manual 5 speed gear box. The car was oddly more spacious than what I had expected, and it almost leads me to think of those circus acts where they try and get 100 clowns into a small car, that the car must have been a Vista.

The driver seat is height adjustable as well and so is the steering wheel. All Vistas I am told come with power steering, air-conditioning, and child locks. I am also told that the Vista has been launched in 3 variants in South Africa; the Ina, Aura and Ignis.

I am also informed that it has great fuel economy. You can choose between either diesel or petrol versions. The handling on the car is great and going up steep inclines is a breeze, the engine is really powerful. Another thing I love about my new car is that there is no engine noise, it is just pleasant, no noise, smooth sailing all the way. Happy times ahead!
