Title: How many km's is normal on new i30?
Post by: mantaray on January 10, 2010, 00:59:45
As title says, I was wondering what sort of Km's seem to be on cars when they are picked up, as I am due to pick up mine soon.

Mine had 12kms on it.....

I have seen new cars com with more than 150kms on them, In Australia i thinnk the national standard is no more than 200kms at time of delivery.

About 35 klms.
They had two identical ones in the yard and by the time I had finished my test drives one had 90+ klms on it so they gave me theother one. :cool:

If mine had 150 kms on it, i think they could keep it and get me another one.

Exactly the same here (miles and fuel), even though it's supposed to turn up with a tenner's worth of fuel (this is included in the on-the road price).

mine had 15k as they had to drive from service department to showroom, & would expect a few k's on it getting it on and off boat, then onto truck. at the time i got mine, the Diesel sold like hot cakes they had a waiting list, mine arrived and i had it a day or so latter so not much time for them to run up k's it would not have bothered me that much anything up to 30k would be ok but over that i would not take it as new i would only pay demonstrator price.

hey eye, surprisingly this dealer sold mostly prestege cars and service department was not close by, they did have storage area but not service department.
funny thing was i got a lift to the dealer in my lunch hour as did not have any other time i could manage to get there to pick it up. and while being driven there we followed my car back from it's preservice, did not know but though it was probably my car, and turned out it was.

My SLX Diesel had 15klms only,  but had to go back after 2 days with a sticky brake pedal.  All good now, love that car.

Welcome to the club..The SLX diesel is the "pick of the litter"in my biased opinion...
