Just picked up i30 GD2 Trophy Diesel

Golfmic · **June 30, 2014, 12:01:41**

Hi all.....

Having had several new cars over the years, I was forced to get another as our company recalled all our cars, leaving us to go get our own. What to get? After many hours of research, and reading drivers comments on sites like this the choice was easy, so I have joined you all with a Trophy diesel.
Picked it up this arvo from Castle Hill, and drove north along the M1 home. A very good car, comfortable, responsive and a joy to drive.
I drive 200+ k's each day so the oiler was a no brainer.
Thanks to all who post here as your comments help when honest opinions re required.

Golfmic... The series 1 Trophy wasn't available in a diesel, glad they saw the light this time... That little Diesel motor definitely punches above it's weight...

Great little car you've bought.
Enjoy.

I do 200 + kms a day too so have the diesel (non-Trophy) as well.

Good choice and enjoy the, erm, wisdom available on this forum.

Not many asylums allow such free access to the outside world as this one does
