10 years to the day since I ordered my first i30, I bought a second   :scared:

They must be doing something right.

Afternoon Daz, Shambles et al.

Hi Lorian...it's great to hear from you again!  :razz:



How many km did your FD end up doing with you at the helm?

Mine is coming up to that same time (another 10 months or so).

1.4T Dazz. We don't get the 1.6T.

Its a good experience, a little less torque than the diesel, but overall a bit quicker car. The handling is much better, as you'd expect.

Cheers, Wouldn't be too bad on fuel for a petrol either I guess. My 1.6T averages 7.2 overall (with a K & N air filter). The 1.6 T has a very similar feel torque wise to the old CRDi, which is understandable (265 NM V 250 NM with a similar rev range)

I didn't think you guys got the 1.6T but when I said that in a recent post, a member said that Europe does get it (but must be only selected countries).
