Hi and happy new year to you all . I am picking up a i30 crdi 1600 active on a 13 plate , And as a newbie to the forum and Hyundai I just wondered what you all think about  the i30 as I have only driven a demo model. 
                        Kind regards Twotone

One of our members has just gone from an i30 to a fiesta  (long story, go figure  )

Like you say an i30 is a man sized car ..

Welcome aboard two tone

Hiya two tone! Welcome to the friendliest Forum I ever joined... And that's a lot!
Watch out for some of the Aussies though 
I'm the member Daz refers to who switched from a 2008 i30 to a 2013 1.0 Ecoboost Zetec S Fiesta. I make no apologies for that, great move for me, which Fiesta did you have?

My 1.6 petrol i30 Premium was an amazingly reliable car and probably the best car I've owned in 42 years of driving. I had lots of Company cars though lol!

Daz bought a Toyota... go figure as he says... 

Oh and I don't consider the size of my car represents my masculinity like some do!

[Dazzler]

@ Keith... I knew you would take it in good spirits.  (as I have) 

Didn't take you long to find it! 

[Keith]

Welcome, same car I have

I don't know why people buy petrol, they're slow with crap fuel economy (just jk)

You will love it, it just does everything so well. First tank of fuel averaged at 5.2l per 100km

I swapped an i30 diesel and some cash for an i30 diesel.
