Hi guys!

My name is Siammon, I am from the South West of WA.

I am a long time Hyundai fan, my first car was an x3 excel, which I bought unlicensed and (with help from my father) fixed up and
got re-licensed. I have owned a few early 00's Accents and elantra's since then.

I have recently gotten a job as a delivery driver for Dominos and my VY Commodore ute was just costing way too much on fuel
so I had decided to go back to a smaller car, that is where I found my 2009 diesel i30 which can be seen in my profile pic.
I got it at a steal of $3750! Since purchasing it, I have only done a few mild modifications, the most interesting would be installing
my Alpine W554ABT 2-din head unit. It is a scary experience cutting your dash to fit the fascia, hoping the template was lined up correctly.

Anywho, enough rabble from me, I look forward to meeting like minded people who can help me in learning more about my car and posting my experiences as I go.

That's a good price for the car.
Tell us more about it: kms, condition, etc?  :)

It has done just over 250,000km. Runs like new, only 6l/100 city driving, over 800k per tank. The body is almost perfect, no dents, rust or scratches. It looks almost new.

It is the SLX model, so it has the factory alloys, full electrics and traction control.

Fantastic buy.    :goodjob2:
I used to own an FD SLX diesel manual before the GD I have now.
My GD has done 183,000 kms and climbing quickly.
Properly serviced, these diesels just go and go.
