do you have a navigation, rear camera and cruise control in your car?

Just the cruise control.

The other 2 are on the next model up - Style model.

Also, has speed limiter so I can set max speed to save being caught by speed cameras.

I'm sure I read in the booklet that on the blue car they are black.

I thought it was odd not to be same colour.

I make a feedback comment to dealer as I'm calling later in the week to get some touch up paint.

I have just looked through the brochure and can see no reference to black sensors on a blue car.

Show your dealer these piccies

Do you get The Simpsons in Russia?

Young Bart Simpson often says the name of your car.. "Aika Rumba"

yes we do, this cartoon is broadcast everyday on a certain channel
Aika goes from Russian pronunciation of Latin letter "i" (ai) with adding ka.
women use to adding "zaika" to aika in the end, that means hare, but in affectionate diminutive form

I think that I may have found out the enigma behind the parking sensors on the 2012 i30.

It would appear that the only ones to get colour coded sensors are the Style and Style Nav derivatives.

The Active appears to have the black ones as per Lesters car.

Here is an active on fleabay which also has the black ones

bumpkin · **Reply #47: May 30, 2012, 14:43:29**

Having said that however, the non-cost paint option of white on the Active does have colour coded, so the mystery deepens........

And how does this dealer manage to have a Crystal White one which is not available on the UK spec list (a mistake IMO, much nicer than the Creamy White!)????

Whilst at the dealers this morning they had a Style/nav, it had lights on the wing mirror, and that had black sensors.

Must be a typo error.

Just check to see if it was an import from Northern Ireland but they have creamy white also.

Can't be a typo, they have pictures and the pics are definitely not Creamy White

Are those 15" alloys ???

Anybody there ???

Sorry Ogi .. Not sure how this got missed .. pretty sure it is the 1.4 petrol with 15" alloys

Ogi · **Reply #54: October 06, 2012, 18:47:10**

Great car, there is no such front grill here but the classic one... anyway, i think that 1.4 is too weak for that car and 15" rims are too small.
If i decide to buy new i30 sometime, it would definetly be 1.6 with 16" .

Lester had the Diesel in the FD for 4 years but does very limited miles now. He reckons it goes quite well...

Can't complain due to the low miles I now cover.

Averaging 39 mpg which may be below the manufacturers quoted for combined @ 47 mpg but higher than urban @ 35 mpg but given the type of driving I do I think this is acceptable.
