Title: Hyundai i30 CRDi Automatic- First Impressions.
Post by: alan2938 on May 05, 2011, 15:34:16

Just bought the above car, it's one year old, my first impression.

Handling, very good, but to as good as the KIa Ceed auto diesel.

Seating very good/ excellent, better than the Ceed.

Quality of car, very good.

Fuel consumption, lowish at the moment as I have only done 50 miles.

Stereo, again very good.

Acceleration- good.

Diesel noise, worse than the 1.9 Diesel Space Star, but not problematic.

Car appears to be heavy for it's size. (not bad)

Ride in rear, car seems to find every pot hole., but on the whole good.

Brakes, excellent.

Steering a little light, but OK.

The car was supplied with U.S. air con, now fixed by dealer.

Service carried out by dealer before delivery, but  body work warranty, book not stamped, now fixed.

Excellent safety features.

Value for money, excellent.
