Hello everyone.  Another new member from Scotland.  Bought an ex-demonstrator i30 estate estate last week having agonised for ages as to what my next car should be.  For features, running costs, utility and performance the i30 won over the Kia Ceed and Ford Focus that I had also considered.

Decent fuel economy over the first week.  I re-set the Trip last Saturday and do mainly mixed town/dual carriageway driving.  The economy has now increased to 51mpg which I think is good when you consider my average speed over the week has only been 20 mph.

Great forum and am looking forward to reading the posts and making occasional contributions.
