G'day everyone. This is my first time here. :happydance:

I just upgraded my i30 CW CRDI 2012 to a brand new i30 2.0L Petrol PD 2017 hatchback

WOW. for the base model, it is a sexy car. So far, I'm finding it much more zippy than the diesel model. But this could be for many factors (smaller car, bigger engine).

I find the touch screen a bit fiddly. I stick to the steering wheel controls. The Apple CarPlay is a bit of a novelty IMO. Plus it doesn't have Google Maps (only apple maps...) Much prefer to stick my phone in a cradle and go from there.
