Cerastes 204 Report post Posted May 13, 2018 I have been reading and watching lots of information on this car. Definitely looks like a fun car to drive. If I could afford to have 2 cars this would be my second car. Might try and get a test drive one day. Finally a decent car advert too; aimed at petrol heads. No silly music, no dancing cars spinning around, no more SUV's etc etc and they drive on the correct side of the road in this advert. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gavin_t 184 Report post Posted August 1, 2018 I like these a lot. There is one that has appeared in the car park at work. Good looking car as well enough to look nice but not OTT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get them in other colours thankfully. That colour is just unique to that model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Varelco 211 Report post Posted August 2, 2018 I saw one of these on the road last week. Definitely looks more high end than you would expect from a Hyundai but my god it sounded completely awful. Cross between a tractor and a leaky exhaust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Car reviewers have been saying it's similar sounding to a rally car, with the ASBO pop and bangs. But yes, I can't imagine the engine sounds that great being a 2l turbo.

will300 812 Report post Posted August 2, 2018 I managed to get a place on the Hyundai driving experience for the i30N, I'm hoping it'll be a good day out not a 5 minute test drive. (https://nthdegree.hyundai.co.uk/) 1 Deacon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted August 2, 2018 Cool, I had the chance to get on that but difficult to get time off work. Hope you have fun, let us know how the car is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted August 12, 2018 New video by EE. Interesting. It's about the veloster N, which I'm 99% certain is the same as i30n only it has got a different rear end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luke 193 Report post Posted October 5, 2018 It's a nice enough looking car but I wouldn't say I'd rush to the dealers to pay twenty five thousand for it. Basically the same as most hot hatchbacks available today. Same boring inline four cylinder turbocharger fart sounding car that pops and bang like every quick car these days. Stupid emission laws have manufacturers all making the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shippers 30 Report post Posted November 18, 2020 Driven a couple of them and they are fun. It is a hot hatch and not a sports car so it depends what you are after though. Comes with a ton of kit and the pops and bangs are a bit addictive, even if a bit childish 😂. 1 Rocket Panda reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocket Panda 175 Report post Posted November 18, 2020 😄 I totally agree with you. I'm your biggest fan and supporter of the GT86. Both cars come close on the fun factor. The i30 might just have the edge on practicality when ferrying your elderly relatives! 😁😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
