Title: Buying a used 2009-2012 i30 Wagon
Post by: Kymbuz on February 17, 2021, 01:50:59

I am currently looking at purchasing a 2009-2012 wagon. Have seen both SX and SLX, both diesel's and petrol models. I am hoping to find one with not far over 100 thousand klms. Would appreciate any advise for both diesel and petrol and longevity of motors :)

My partner's 2011 1.6 CRDi has now done over 335,000 km and is still going strong. Other than regular oil changes and a couple of aux drive belts, the engine hasn't been touched since it left the factory.
