Car options

[Wilmslow]

Been looking into the fuel economy of my car – 45mpg.

Compared it to a Hyundai I-30 diesel 1.6 which reports to be as below.

On 30K miles per year, and with the unlimited mileage warranty, the annual fuel cost goes from around £4300 to £3100.

Can get top of the range with a third off as they are changing models for around £200 a month for 4 years if I trade in my gas-guzzling Focus. (£12,000, or pauper versionfor £10K, but I need cruise for managed motorways with average speed check).

Just wondering if anyone has any I-30 experience and can advise if 60mpg on a hilly motorway does look rather realistic or not….

EC Urban (mpg) 53.3
EC Extra Urban (mpg) 68.9
EC Combined (mpg) 62.8

You posting that here is like us posting on the Hedge Fund Managers Forum what cheap champagne tastes like.

Person A: "So, what car do you drive?"
Person B: "I've got a Hyundai..."
Person A: "...Urm, just remembered I've got to wash my hair. Bye!"

Enough said.

If your going to get a car for fuel economy and you live in wilmslow at least get a Volkswagen or Honda/Toyota or some other mid-range car. Talking about Hyundai is permie talk.

considering where you live and where you work a helicopter is the way to go.

Good way of weeding out the gold diggers then.

Hyundais/Kias are now as well built as Honda, Toyota and better than a Focus.
Designed in Germany, built in Europe, the only "dodgy" thing is the badge.
Still I suppose there are morons who don't understand how the car industry workd and/or have small penises who would spend £5K more for a Focus.
HTH
