hyundai i30

A budget of £15,000 is enough to buy a nearly new family model from many marques – but shop at Hyundai and you can get a brand new i30 and still pocket some change. What’s more, for £14,300 you can treat yourself to a mid-range Comfort model fitted with the firm’s economical 1.6-litre CRDi diesel. With combined fuel consumption of 62.8mpg and CO2 emissions of only 119g/km, it makes real sense – especially when you factor in the
manufacturer’s excellent five-year warranty. And don’t forget, the i30 came out on top in our 2010 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey – so the ownership experience promises to be just as attractive as its price tag.
