Hello,
I just thought I'd join and say hello! I bought my Touring (i30 in Europe) and am really enjoying it I just thought I'd join here as where I am there are very few like mine (one other I have seen) and as it was just introduced this year it I thought that keeping in touch with you all will be my best avenue of information!

A big welcome to the club Kitedemon, from Manchester in good old sunny rainy UK :)

Not many i30s round here either so it's kind of an exclusive club :D

Shambles,
Hey thanks for that! I know what you mean about the rain... it has been here for most of the month... at least it has been mostly warm! I to date have only seen one other one (the same one spotted twice) oddly enough he lives around the corner. He stopped me in the street a while back and told me he bought his after seeing mine. I tried to get a referral fee from the dealer but oddly they didn't go for it!

Welcome Kitedemon..Nice to have another Canadian Member.. I just did a search under Canada and we appear to have at least one other Canadian  :D

If you go to the google map link on here and zoon in there may be more.... Canada also gets a few other mentions so you may want to put Canada in the search function up the top and check them out...

Our members are a very friendly bunch and we just love new members..

I assume yours is a petrol are you enjoying it ...?

Thanks all!

yes Dazz it is a petrol I asked about a diesel but the dealer here didn't know that the i30 is the Tourings sister and was avaliable in diesel and quote, "why would you want a pokey diesel anyway"  :rolleyes: typical actually, I really wanted a diesel but they only option was a jetta wagon and it was out of my budget! I actually have been getting fairly good milage however! Better than I expected!

Welcome. May I ask what part of Canada do you reside? I've got a friend who did a backbacker holiday down the west side of Canada for a few weeks and said it was fantastic.
