What sort of balance preference do you lean towards?
Generally our i30s will understeer when pressed hard but do you find it too much?
If so, have you made any suspension mods to alter the balance?

Please tell us about it. In the telling indicate whether petrol or diesel, hatch or wagon and if you don't have your country flag set in the profile, where you are from as different countries can have different suspension setups.

Full story here.

Automotive News reports BMW and Hyundai are currently engaged in talks that may lead to the two companies partnering on engine development.

I have done a 'towbar' search here and read the threads but have some questions that i30 owners may be able to answer.

I have a genuine Hyundai (hatch) towbar with genuine Hyundai wiring harness lined up to buy for a good price.

Previously I shied away from the idea of fitting one to my 2010 diesel hatch because I have read that you need to remove the rear bumper and then having to cut out a section of the bumper. (OUCH!!! and OUCH!!!)

Has anyone actually done this as oppose...

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

NEW HYUNDAI i30 STYLE 1.6 CRDi 128PS BLUE DRIVE 6 Spd Manual Hatch

PREAMBLE

I have now enjoyed a few days with my new car which is finished in sleek silver.  As you can deduce from the above photo showin...

Its original i30 - the first Hyundai designed in Europe for European customers, and the car which gave the company's now-current naming system its debut - has been replaced by something significantly different.

You know this World is complicated and imperfect and oppressed
And it’s not hard to feel timid, apprehensive and depressed
It seems all around us tides of questions ebb and flow
And people want solutions but they don’t know where to go

Opinions abound about who is wrong and who is right
People need a prophet – a diffuser of the light
Someone they can turn to – as the crisis’s rage and swirl
Someone with the remedy – the wisdom – the pearl

Well they should ...

Hyundai have now finalised the specs and prices for the March 12th launch of the new model in the UK.

These are

I have now spent several hours at the Silverstone Race Centre attending a customer user experience with Hyundai to test drive the new 2012 i30 and give Hyundai feedback of my opinions about the new car. The previous few days had been taken up with dealerships being afforded the opportunity to be shown the car and it was only at the last minute that Hyundai had decided to extend the show by a further day to invite selected prospective customers to be given the same experience.
