2009 Honda Insight 1.3H Hybrid Hatchback

Description

So, I’ve got this 2009 Honda Insight – the 1.3H IMA ES-T version, 5-door hatchback, petrol hybrid with CVT – and it’s one of those cars that actually feels like it’s been built for efficiency and smooth driving. It’s a Euro 5, has 102ps, and I’ve had it properly serviced recently – just done a full check-up at my place.

I bought it from a private owner, not an auction – which I’m pretty happy about. It’s one of the first generation ones, so it’s got that classic Insight charm – clean lines, good space, and the hybrid system works well. It’s got heated seats, electric windows, cruise control, sat-nav, heated mirrors, and even ESP. Air conditioning’s a bit of a beast – keeps the cabin icy even on a hot day.

MOT expires July 2026, and I’ve just had new rear brakes fitted. The wheels are 16-inch 7-spoke alloys, and it’s been professionally valeted and detailed. The service history is solid – I’ve checked it through HPI, and it’s been well looked after.

I live in Saltash, Cornwall now, so if you’re local or coming from the west of England, it’s a short drive. I’m happy to show it off – you can come and take a look anytime. I’m not a big fan of sales pitches, so if you want to inspect it with a mechanic or just check it out yourself, I’m totally up for that.

I’ve got a three-month warranty on it, and I’ll happily help with finance options – no pressure, just straight info. Credit and debit cards are both accepted, and I don’t charge extra for debit.

If you’re looking for a reliable, low-maintenance hybrid with good specs and a solid history, this one might just fit. I’ve had it for a few years now, and it’s still running great.

If you’re thinking about buying a used car, I’d say go for trusted, hands-on dealerships – especially if you’re not sure about what you’re looking at. I’ve been in the car trade for over 15 years with my wife and two kids, and we’ve built a reputation for being honest and not playing games.

You can find more about us online – just search “Peels Wheels Saltash” on Facebook or Google. We’re not a big chain, just a family-run place with real people behind it.

No auctions, no shortcuts – just real cars, real checks, real value.

And yes, I’ve got a good price for it – it’s not cheap, but it’s not overpriced either. If you’re serious about a car that’s going to last, this one’s worth a look.
