Hi there,

Let me take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Marty, I'm from Brisbane, Australia, and I'm currently awaiting the delivery of my brand new Hyundai i30. For the past five years, I've driven a Hyundai Getz and the little fellow never let me down. I don't mind the badge snobs who might look down their noses on the Hyundai brand. It's just value for money and design-wise they've come a long way!

Cheers,

Marty

Welcome to the forum.  I had a 2002 Hyundai Accent, a 2008 Santa Fe (still own) and just bought a 2012 i30 FD SX.  I havent had any issues with any of them.  Great waranty too.

Welcome aboard Marty,

Glad you're happy to drive Hy brand vehicles. The other brands are just not value for money IMO.  :neutral:

Thanks everyone!

Just got a phone call from my dealer. Tuesday morning my new car will be ready for pickup. I didn't know that the purchase of a new car could be so exciting!
