Used hatchbacks for sale near North Chicago, IL under $249,968

This is a fuel efficient and modest car. It achieves 98hp has a 9 gallon tank and an automatic transmission. The LS has crank windows and old fashioned key-lock doors. You can haul a reasonable load in the back seat and hatch or even three other people, though it might be somewhat cramped. It appears to be designed for urban commuters, but I've driven it some decent distances and in all seasons now and it seems to up the challenge of all weather and (paved) terrains. The onboard technology (radio, backup camera, and internet connectivity--with Apple Play and Android Auto) is surprisingly good. Its small size makes it fit easily into small spaces. It was discontinued in 2022, so there should be parts for awhile and prices are coming down. If you need a second car, give this one some consideration.

Buying a car at this dealership can only be described as stress free. Ed was extremely helpful in every way, including not selling the car out from under us in between making an appointment and us arriving to look at the car. He immediately made us feel comfortable, as if we were his family. The car, a 2010 Volvo S80 T6, was very clean with new tires and an oil service already performed before the sale. Again, Ed will not let you down and I fully recommend his dealership!

Purchased 2015 used and I love it. Leather seats, plenty of room, rides like a Cadillac. Small issues I fixed myself (yes, I am a girl), no engine issues. Drove it 800 miles to Calif. in 2016, now it's for work and fun.

2014 Ford Focus. Best car I have ever driven. Fun to drive and I look sexy driving it. Passed it on to my daughter, 177000 miles and still runs great.

I absolutely recommend this car if you need a workhorse to drive you back and forth and not to die on you. A couple things about this car --- 200k miles with multiple total-loss level accidents because my jobs at the time had me on the road most days. Still running strong. I just took it on an interstate road trip and it doesn't miss a beat. This car is hard to kill. I don't know how this thing was built by Toyota but it is seriously impressive value for the money. Worth literally every penny for what I've squeezed out of it so far. Cons: the disrespect you get is insane. I've driven other cars and the hate that this car receives in particular is laughable. Also the performance is ridiculously bad, which everyone knows. One way to sum this up, I had a friend of mine once say, "It's hard to look another man in the eye while getting out of a Prius."

Ford had a great idea in the C-Max hybrid. So many places we travel don’t have the plug ins for electric. We have many trips with 40+ to 50 mpg. Ford missed the mark when they discontinued manufacturing the C-Max. Bring back the car and make us look toward the future !

I live in Michigan and was nervous about driving to WI to buy a car that I was pretty sure had been totaled. The listing was for a 2018 Ford Focus with just under 8,000 miles for about $8,000. The KBB is over $15,000 on that car, so logic told me there was a catch. I emailed to see if they would send before and after photos, which they would not. They just asked me to come see the car. That was kind of annoying, but I figured if the car was totalled (which it was) they knew the photos might scare me off. They wanted me to come in and see the car instead. I knew I might be wasting a day of my life, but as a man who is willing to take a risk for a great deal, I did it. Dave greeted my wife and I (and our baby) and was cheerful and has a great sense of humor. I took the car for a test drive and thoroughly examined it. I could tell the hood, front bumper and fenders had been replaced. Rick (the owner) showed us the photos of the damage before their rebuild and...yep...it would have scared me off. But I'm telling you, you these guys know their stuff. They did a really good job with the rebuild. The frame was solid and this car drives great! I just took it to PA and back and it drives like a dream! I wanted to wait a few thousand miles before posting a review just to make sure the car was legit. If you want a new factory car with a factory warranty, don't buy here. If you are willing to take a risk, as I did, for a great value, Geneva is a great option! Rick was very honest and they handled the process very professionally. As others have noted, they could use a few more hands on deck, as they are very busy and have only a few staff...but that means they are selling cars. I would definitely buy from them again. Also, if there is a small issue after purchase, call them, don't write a negative review. I had a question (not a car problem) and Dave called me right back. I believe they will make sure you are happy, even after purchase. I did also buy the $399 aftermarket warranty. Hopefully I won't need to use it, and hopefully it works, but it makes me feel better knowing the engine and tranny are supposed to be covered for the next 100,000. I had my doubt, but this worked out excellently for me. Love this car! Thanks guys!

I've had my 2016 Focus SE for 9 years this year & will drive it until one of us dies. I've never had a problem with it. It gets great gas mileage, is comfortable & roomy. I've hauled many things that others thought wouldn't fit but with the back seats folded down ...no problem. I would recommend a Focus to anyone looking for a reliable vehicle.

I would like to sincerely thank the entire service team at Star Nissan for the fantastic support I received during my recent visit. I’ve been a loyal customer of this company for many years – both for service and car purchases. Each time, I can count on reliable assistance and professional guidance from my trusted sales consultant, Olga Soltysiak. Olga is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and kind – she always makes the buying process smooth and enjoyable. Her dedication and personal approach truly deserve the highest recognition. Special thanks also go to Mark Yalda, who has consistently shown outstanding commitment and genuine care for customers over the years. Mark always finds the time to help, offer advice, and ensure every visit is stress-free. He’s truly a gem and a shining example of top-tier customer service. I’d also like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to Deshon, who was equally kind, helpful, and attentive during my visit. It’s important to mention that almost everyone I’ve interacted with in the customer service department has been fantastic and incredibly supportive. I don’t know all their names – and the list would be long – so I want to express my heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you. Your kindness and professionalism make a real difference. During the repair, I was given a loaner vehicle, which made things much easier – another example of how well the company takes care of its customers’ comfort and convenience. I highly recommend Star Nissan to anyone looking not only for reliable service and trustworthy sales but also for a company that treats people with care and respect. Thank you once again to the entire team – I always come back with a smile!

Love it everything we expected the drive and handling is perfect we love how it looks and works. We highly recommend this vehicle wished had purchased sooner.

This car is meant to perform. With regular maintenance and wear an tear items the vehicle has been great and reliable. Been doing Volkswagens for over 20 years now. Even though I work on them myself and for many others in my area these cars are amazing and fit my personal needs for performance and style. As well as luxury.

This car is fully loaded and had low mileage very comfortable ride beautiful interior everything you need in a daily driver it’s not a speedster but it will get you to where you going comfortably and in style I highly recommend this car.

I sure tire of the "free energy" postings. You honestly think your utility company comps you for the extra kilowatt usage? These are great little cars, even took mine on a Minnesota to Texas and back road trip with decent comfort at full highway speeds and no, it didn't look as if I was lead car in a funeral procession either. You can honestly cruise all day at 80 should you wish to do so. Reliability? If this Prius is like my 2008 then I can expect to get a trouble free 218,000+ miles out of it and then see its current owner still tooling about the area. Take a look and see where these are made. In a country that still values quality of performance and strives for perfection.

This is the best car to cruise around town in. Drives great with plenty of power. Everything in the engine is easy to replace except the turbo.

Max and Sam were very helpful and accommodating. Answered all my questions and provided information. I did a test drive and liked very much but eventually thought the vehicle might be a little bigger than I want or able to fit in my garage. I would definitely recommend Little House Of Cars.

We love the prius after owning a 2007 model. The 2015 is a step up and we got it at a good price for low mileage to hold us until plug-in mile range improves.

I purchased a car in early April and I had a pleasant experience. Mike the owner/manager of the facility ensured that any concerns that I may have had were addressed promptly. I’ll for sure look to purchase here in the future.

It's a nice car, considering the deal we got on it!!! It runs really good and hopefully, our daughter will be able to drive it back and forth to ATL

This 2013 c-max hybrid has absolutely stood the test of time , unexpectedly driving excessive miles daily for years without having any mechanical problems, we did replace worn tires and always kept up with the recommended sevice maintenance by Ford. I am really impressed by this lil car. Now being sold to continue driving a hybrid car. I defiantly would recommend the c-max.

I, and my wife bought a 2018 Chevy Cruze LS Sedan in February 2018 brand new right off the back of the delivery truck. We simply take very good care of "PIP" as we call him, and he has and does take very good care of us. The key is keep up with all of the maintance before it is needed! Great car overall, only 41, 767 Miles!

went it to look at a car that i saw online, called to check if it was available, the moment i stepped in they made me feel like i was family and took really good care of me. Great customer service, and very friendly

Never had a single problem with my car in the 6 years I have had it! Extremely reliable every month of the year. Great car.

Bought a 2009 BMW 3 Series 6 Months ago and wanted to review after I had the car for awhile. I wasn't sure buying from a smaller dealer, but everything worked out and the car is still running great. I would definitely recommend buying from this dealer. Thank You Max!

GTI's do almost everything well. Economy, performance, flexibility, holds value, road car, back roads car, safety, comfort, feature-laden and now almost $10K less than the price of the average new vehicle. Two minor flaws IMO. All GTI's should have Golf R climate controls. Standard controls too confusing and fussy. Rather set it and forgot it. DSG is "still funky after all these years." Don't get me wrong, the lightning quick shifts and in-traffic ease are compelling, but DSGs can be clunky and feel strange at low speed and can't yet read all of your intentions correctly, thus some odd decisions/shifts on occasion. Not a fault, just a thing. Otherwise brilliant. GTI is among the contenders for "best" mass-produced combustion engine car of all time. Yes, that good. If shopping the used market, I would strongly suggest one try to get a Performance Package car. Much better brakes that won't need brake service as often and stop better. Also, the electronically controlled differential aids both traction and handling.

Nice xars -nice service-Okay prices.the cars were clean.to me some were over priced

7 years old and I've never had a single mechanical issue. Just maintain it per factory specs. Great gas mileage. Not a car to pick up chicks with.:0)==-)

Bought this car brand new and I really like for an economically standpoint. It's just as spacious as the Camry. Totally Love this car. Highly recommended.
