I'm 70 and have wanted an iQ for years. I just bought a 2014 model and pick it up next week. It's good to see all these positive comments on the car.

I'm 28 and had my iQ for four years, this car is definitely a joy to motor around in and I love that it appeals to all ages!

I'm 48. I've had Mr2s, MX5s, an S2000 and a Audi TT 3.2 amongst other cars and the IQ which I've had now for about 7 years has been my best and favourite car.

Nice to see another positive comment about iq, thank you ☺️

I tested an IQ when they first appeared and was amazed by the turning circle . I managed several 200 mile trips without dis comfort. I believe they a diesel variant was available in parts of Europe . Accident wrote it off.

Just bought an IQ and I LOVE it.....

It must be catching. I'm 43 and I've just bought a 2012 1.3 litre IQ. One owner, 22500 miles, full service history, great little car. I'll just have to wait a few years until my son grows up, (and my bank balance) then I'll get a fancy German sports car.

Hi, thanks for comment 👍, yeah this little car has something what only iQ drivers can understand.

Very nice video. Love this little car. The best thing is the electric folding mirrors. Such a nice thing to have on a small car. There are some much bigger and more prestigious cars that do not have this function. + marks for Toyota.

I had a latelife crisis and changed my 20 year old Corolla for a 2012 IQ. I love it but there are some issues. Blind spot as you mention. Vibration and rattling. And I have never managed to work out how to set the radio! Perhaps you could do a video on that as I have not found anything online that helps! Thanks a lot.

I love this car! I'm in my 60th, (in mid age crisis), thinking to buy one of this iQ, only concern, how other people would be react for this, I'm a big guy. What you think? 🤔

What are the adjustments allowed on the steering column? thx

90% of my driving is around town. I've worked out that if I swap my Corolla for an IQ I'll effectively give myself a £1000 a year pay rise because that's how much cheaper it will be to run. Sure it's a compromise but £1000 in my back pocket is good compensation for lack of carrying ability.

@@AutoStartTest Ok) Very easy. Pull dome light out. Unclick all parts carefully. You will have in your hands separate board with led chip, and other small pcb board with 3 resistors and one diode. On that board you you solder little wire bridges on the back side. Because we dont need voltage reduction any more( original led is 3v) Cut wires which goes to led chip pcb board. Thats rubbish now. To those + and -" wires you solder(polarity not important) G4 led bulb. Brightness 200lm and more, dimmable type (thats very important)colour temperature up to you. I prefer 3000k. In original black plastic led chip casing you drill the hole( same diameter as new g4 bulb) all they through. Put it all together and.. Voila!

I want to buy a mini car for tight city parking. I already own a Honda Jazz, but I can't fit it into hmm... irregular parking spaces. I am considering a Smart fortwo, which is ideal size wise. But the IQ is cheaper and probably a better ride. What are your experiences people with parking in historical city centers? I see that it has a great turning cycle, but it is 30 cm longer than the Smart. On the other hand, it's one meter shorter than my Jazz. Advice is appreciated!

Great little marbles these IQ's. Question; how tall are you? I guess quiet tall +1.90m? Thinking about a IQ myself but I am 1.94m. Read on a forum you can do custom adjustments to the divers seat. Als different IQ years seem to have different drivers seat adjustments?

Hi, I'm 193 cm , unfortunately my iQ doesn't have up/down adjustment, but I'm still not touching roof lining in the car. The highest position is little bit uncomfortable when you driving more fast on the corner. Btw I'm waiting for hip joint replacement, so at the moment I'm ok with higher position but after operations I will be change my driver seat.
