Title: They are a bit behind the times in Derbyshire
Post by: diablo on November 28, 2011, 19:47:08
Apparently the diesel models have only just reached there -

Maybe they'll get the 2012 model in 2017 ?  :D

It would appear to be an old article which has been pulled from the archives.   :confused:

It's an odd time for it to be published @ 11:26 pm on a Sunday:

Must have been a slow week for news in Derbyshire.............


Shambles I've just read your comment.

Be interesting to see if you get a response...

Not really - he speaks of testing the 6 speed manual, which used to be in the 2.0L model (now discontinued). Plus the picture is of a "10" plated facelift comfort.

I seen this article myself, i tend to do a search of google news with 'Hyundai' everyday (rather pathetic maybe, but you find cool things out) seen this article and was expecting a 2012MY review... hmm idk,

Maybe Derbyshire are still on the old 56k Dial Up connection, and this article has only eventually uploaded from the server... 4 years later.... even though there is next to no images..

Keep an eye on their site, they will soon be publishing Michael Jackson's death...
R.I.P :)

Let's be serious. Only thing Derby could win would be a toy from one of those game machines that you are guaranteed to win something from.... even at that..

The guilty website is based in Chesterfield - not Derby

Chesterfleld is most noted for its crooked spire. In the case of this website crooked spyer might be more apt.

Theres times i wish i had got the 2.0 crdi :(
but at the time of only being 18, the insurance was near £3,000 and obviously higher tax, slightly lower emissions put me off the idea..
