We have gathered all of the most frequently asked questions and problems relating to the 2014 Hyundai I30 in one spot to help you decide if it's a smart buy.

What wagon should I buy?

Your choices are limited. An i30 of around 2014 would handle your towing needs and fit your budget. You could also look at Holden Cruze or VW Golf wagons.

 

Hyundai i30 or Hyundai Accent: Which is the best first car?

Either one would fill the bill for you, the Accent being newer is likely to last a little longer, but if you really like the i30 then go for it.

My Hyundai i30 is blowing smoke

You don’t say if it’s a petrol or a diesel, but no, it’s normal, although there are reports of smoke from the i30.

What would you recommend between a Volkswagen Golf GTi and a Hyundai i30 Elite Premium?

Value of Hyundai i30?

The i30 is great value and a very good car. It gets The Tick from me.

Alfa Romeo for stylish car?

Hyundai quality

Your long-term experience reinforces what we already know from our time with all the latest Hyundai models.

Globe-all warning

A globe upgrade is always good with a quality brand like Philips. However, I would really do the homework before trying an HID conversion as factory units involve a lot of engineering work.
