We had one that we kept for 18 months. It went because I needed a 2nd car for a 20 mile each way commute and I am 6'4 and didn't fit in the i10 - it gave me hideous back pain as the seat is too high and we had the top model with a sunroof.
It is a good city car but not so good on faster roads - a journey over over an hour was uncomfortable for the driver (even the Mrs found her ankle starting to cramp up). I got 44 MPG from it which was a bit lower than expected and probably because the little engine had to be worked hard to get it up to speed when joining the fast A roads. The seat material quality is not great and the glove box plastic marked easily but that was the worst of it. The heated seats were nice and the specification was otherwise very good. We also only lost £450 in the 18 months of ownership...
All of the above problems (except locking yourself out - which is just stupidity) should be covered by the warranty.
