Bought an i30 for the missus after years of using Hyundai’s at work. Never had any major issues, a couple of little things like a sticking button on the steering wheel, tailgate release button rubber cracking. All replaced under warranty no questions asked.

Our i30 had a really minor paint defect in a door. Was tough to even notice it but decided to get it looked at. Booked in for a week with Hyundai, courtesy car supplied, i30 was serviced at the same time, both drivers side doors resprayed at reputable body shop , completely sorted in 3 days. Extremely accommodating, no stress.

The car itself has been brilliant. Good power, great gearbox, excellent on fuel and very comfortable. Heaps of tech even for a base model. Will be keeping it for a very long time I’d say. 25,000kms in just over a year. Did look at the Cerato, just didn’t like it quite as much as the i30, plus the Cerato has a less powerful motor compared to i30.
