Hi James, before you go to the expense of new clutch on Kia or Hyundai I would suggest checking the clutch damper as the diaphragm often splits. I have an i30 with 130500 miles on it. When the biting point went low, at a friend's suggestion I replaced the damper with a sump plug. Bingo, full pedal travel returned!

What do you use your cars for one shopping bag in the boot. I hate having a small car and finding something I need to transport won't fit in the car. Had to get some roof panels for the shed and picked them up in the mondeo estate also picked up a bed from Swansea. Even got my sons go cart in the boot without even putting the seats down.

Surprised yu don't know the correct way to check the oil in a car. Never do it with a hot engine, and wipe it over & redip it before taking a level. Oil slops around and can rise up the dipstick even just from a short spin around the block. Other than that, it seems you did okay this time out.
