Hello I am a shinRed i30 from Norway .


I finally got my new car not more then 1 month ago , so its still a WIP .

I just wanted to share my car with you all I know its nothing compare to the people here but you might know that in Norway cars are 3 x as expensive then in any other country.

I got this car for about 24 ,000 dollars and its CHEAP very cheap compare to the prices It is originally about 30,000 dollars, and it has about 48,000 km on the clock and its a 2008 model so not much milage at all.

I got a 1,6 CdRi CW wagon for me and my family and i have great plans for it for the summer.

Right now its stock but I love it , its a great car with low milage and extremely low diesel consummation.

Its a great handling car for what its worth it has loads of features like EPS , ABS, ASP etc ,loads of goodies.

Its a great looking car I think with loads of potential and I made a small render of what i might look like when summer hits.

I work for a commercial design company where we create car vinyls , signs and stickers and much more.

This is a stance in the making soon! =D



This is just a render for now made in Corel Draw,
But I will add real pictures of it later.
This is how I want it to be for the summer



So hopefully it will be but the wheels are SO expensive so I need to save up-

Hope i did not bore anyone ,

here are some real pictures of the car




Night


Regards Glac







Will post more pictures of it as it is now soon.
Right now its at the bodyshop for full respray as the tools that had the car at the shop pained some panels wrong colours, door , front fenders and bumpers .lol


regards Glac

Hello Glacius.
Welcome to the club.
I see you're lucky to have i30CW merchandised in your country along with those railings on top, as neither of that is available in Russian market.

I own i30 hatchback, so there is a little chance I would be able to fit the railings, anyway if you are so kind to send them to me, I would accept such a honorable gift and sell them  :winker:

If you're sending railings I've been wishing mine had them. :)

Oh, and welcome to the forum.  I too recently (three months ago) got my i30cw (they call it an Elantra Touring in North America) second hand.  Still lovin' it!

the red looks good on the cw,but our hot sun would turn it a faded shade of pink after a few years.  :'( the rims in the top pics look great.  :mrgreen: :goodjob2: :goodjob:
