If the original Hyundai i30 was a game-changer for the South Korean brand, it’s inevitable its successor is faced with great expectations.

It was a small car that transcended Hyundai’s then limited reputation as a builder of good-value vehicles, with a well presented interior, good build quality and competent, if uninspiring, driving manners that took the challenge to Europe’s pace-setters.

There’s already something more dynamic about the second-generation Hyundai i30 that was designed by the company’s European contingent in Germany, with the hatchback’s styling morphing from a conservative shape to the more adventurous chiselled lines of the company’s ‘fluidic sculpture’ form language.

Welcome to the forum, nice post.

I like this bit:

"Prod the soft material of the upper dash and upper door trim, run your fingers over the high-gloss black finish of the centre stack or smooth hard plastic of the window/mirror switch surrounds, and there’s a clear sense that Hyundai has set out to imitate the segment’s benchmark cabin that’s inside the Volkswagen Golf.

Same goes for the sense of quality consideration when you depress buttons or rotate switches."

I dont care.
My personal experience with my "old" series 1 (well if BMW can say it with their i30 copy) has been brilliant! I love the car... feel a strong brand loyalty because it does everything well...

Always starts, never misses a beat, gets me where I'm going in decent style and, in my personal opinion looks really good... in a non Eurobox way.

Top marks Hyundai for providing me with a top car... Lovinit.com!!
