yes I contacted them and they wouldn't go under £34k for cash for PB dct with standard seats

Might be worth taking it out on finance and then paying it straight off, that way you benefit from the £1000 contribution too.

can you do that? I thought the idea of finance was that they make their money back from finance so why let you pay it off 100%
and they make nothing from finance? I thought they give you £1000 but you pay back £2000 on interest?

I decided to get mine from local dealer as the phone calls I made to the dealers known for their discounts was as i said around £34k
for pb dct standard seats.......maybe a year or so from now discounts will be better? just now it's an easy car to sell
 
Here's my review! Its a big improvement on the previous one!

Glad I've bought it, wee bit worried it wouldn't be that much of a change but it is!

Yes you can do that, I was advised to do it by the dealership when I bought my Fiesta ST, literally phoned up the day after and paid it off, if I can remember rightly I didn't even have to pay any interest because it was paid off so early, there may have just been a fee to settle the finance but I know it wasn't much if any fee at all!

Looks great and congrats!

Can you elaborate at all on what you find is a big improvement over the last model?

I almost bought the original i30N but something about it didn't quite get me across the line. I've ordered the new FL and am pleased to hear it's a significant upgrade. In the absence of any professional reviews yet, I'm keen to hear some more info on what you find are the most noticeable improvements.

I ordered mine with 0% APR deal over two years. Got the £1000 dealer contribution - that was it.

oh, that's annoying, didn't know PCP finance was at 0%, my local dealer said nothing about finance or this offer but of course I'd already told him i was paying cash.....this is what i saw when I looked at Hyundai's website.

Oh, wow - they've removed the 0% offer. I hope my dealer still honours it. You had to pay a minimum 30% deposit to be eligible for the offer. All I've paid is a £500 deposit as when I ordered a few weeks ago, you still couldn't officially place an order.

Of course, not in order of importance and compared to a 19 plate performance

All lights are upgraded, much much better looking and brighter

Camera is now at the licence plate and doesn't get as dirty plus you can view it while driving :)

Wheels are better

Ice is better

Front and rear is cleaner looking imo

Suspension is better

Brakes are better

Power delivery is better

Safety features are better especially blind spot assistance

Cruise control has been fixed, you can now see the speed it's set at

Exhaust is better and louder

Seats are better - both types

Feels better built strangely

One negative is they've stayed with pirelli

I'll probably think of more but in the absence of real reviews hope that helps
 
Hey potential Aussie owners of the new FL model!

I just spoke to me local N-Pusher, They confirmed that the vehicle is sitting at the holding facility in Melbourne. With and expected delivery date between today and the 6/7, however this could be extended up to 2 weeks based on a phone call with HMCA!!!! I wont say the choice word used on that bit of info.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Official launch first week of July, no year stated... 😉

And still a big secret on the DA pricing, but told my N-Pusher I do have a limit, both financial and my patience!
 
You chose the best colour. I'm going for Polar white again but this time trying auto. Yes not the best turning circle but you will get used to it. Where did you get yours from?
Today said goodbye to i30N and hello to new FL i30N Auto and N lite seats. Got what I think was a good deal with the low rate finance and even got GAP and tyre insurance thrown in for free.

Agree with above and following my 1st 150 miles mainly motorway I would add the first thing I noticed was how it felt more agile / responsive / lighter? compared to previous model I think the steering (cornering feels better too on motorways at higher speeds). I haven't driven many autos before so haven't got much to compare it with but I'm liking it there is a slight delay at some speeds/gears but it picks up very rapidly and at higher speeds the changes are seamless. In reality it seems faster than my old model manual. Hardly used the shift paddles as the auto mode seems excellent. It was also a pleasure to be in an auto stuck on the M1 in a very slow moving traffic jam!

Hopefully put the car through its paces on some good Yorkshire country roads soon.

UPDATE went for a blast on some twisty and undulating country roads and yes it is better than the old model. I think the ride is improved and softer over speed bumps.

PS it doesn't come with spare wheel or jack so guess that makes it a bit lighter too but the user manuals weigh a ton!

Sorted blue link eventually.

Yes it was an i30N. There were about 3 other new ones being prepared whilst I was there. If anyone is interested they still have a few available unlike most dealers I contacted.
