Its not a bluedrive with ISG?
I forgot to mentioned, that the fabric on the seats is different as it is in his i30 or in my previous i30. I don't know how to explain it, it looks more "3D". Maybe it can be seen better in this pic. It just feels more "breathable" - better
Quote from: tla on September 15, 2011, 07:46:08Great pics!In the 2nd and 3rd pics, I noticed what I think are small air dams protruding down along the wheel wells in front of the rear wheels.Is that a new feature in the current model, or did you have those in the previous model?My Beijing-built i30 doesn't have them.As hard as I look I can't see what you are referring to. Maybe it's just the side skirts that you can see???

Yes it looks more textured although the upholstery in Trish's CW which is the same as our old SLX is also of a good quality...
My '09 SLX has those things too.And as for how the car feels as it ages, my i30 truly drives as good as (in fact probably better) than it did when new.Everything is run in nicely, all nice and smooth. I was driving it today thinking how "together" it feels so I agree that the quality is definitely up on older Hyundais.There are still a few areas they need to improve - carpet quality is poor and I think more sound-proofing wouldn't go astray either.Plus certain equipment upgrades of course, such as auto headlights on for tunnels etc.
All facelift diesels here are isg enabled, started in 2010 models. but you have the choice of using it or not, so it doesnt hurt to have. you do a sequence to activate. anyways was just asking because i thought it was default, and noticed the missing switch.
Your car looks great - it really does. Is it just me, or does anyone else like seing photos of different parts of the world as well as the cars?I remember that Hemmi used to put lots of pics up of Iceland and I found them really interesting as a comparison to Australia.
I bought myself a camera last year and really don't use it enough but I would like to get into the habit of using it, so if I do I'll start to post a few photos.I'll have to look for which section is the appropriate place on the forum.

That would be great (like you I really enjoy photos from other parts - both interstate and overseas) If they include your car they go in the Diesel Pix section.. If not they go in off topic (Random Pix)
I wish my steering wheel had had any integrated heating system, cause when an outside temperature is about -25, so about -20 - -25 in the car it is really hard to keep the bare palms on the steering wheel.
@meehalych: last winter in Slovenia temperatures dropped below -20°C quite frequently. My father has heated seats in his car and they make really a difference in the first 15 minutes until the car warms up completely.

They say they are not good for your "fellows" down there..?
