Title: Hello from a newbie and first time Hyundai owner
Post by: motormadmarc on April 26, 2017, 16:38:46
Hi all  :)

Just joined this forum as I've recently bought my first ever Hyundai after 38 years of driving. The model I chose Is a 2010 1.6 i30 edition In shine red that has covered only 45k In total.

However, after driving my previous Seat 1.9 TDI 130 for 11 years, this car really took some getting used to I can tell you. Especially the fact that Its only got a 5 speed box. It just felt like there was a gear missing (well there Is I know) but It still felt quite weird, especially on the motorway. Apart from that, I think the car Is great. A nice smooth 16v zippy engine with apparently 124 bhp as well. The engine Is spotless and the bodywork Is also very good too. Here's a couple of photo's of my new motor,

Thanks for the reply Sean. I'm really quite pleased with this car as I've already stated, even the engine was spotless when I picked It up,
