Looking for a used Hyundai i30? - carsforsale.com.au/hyundai/i30
Hyundai products have had a reputation renaissance over the past decade, and that all started with the i30. Since this versions release in 2016, it's seen fantastic sales, gaining a reputation for quality, value for money and a great list of standard equipment.
But a few years on, and with thousands and thousands of kilometres on the clock, does it still hold on to those attributes? Or is there more to consider when buying one.

At ReDriven, we’ll be taking you through the pros and cons of a huge range of used cars to see how well they’re going now that they’re a few years old, have thousands of kilometres on the clock, and are coming toward the end of their warranty, or maybe don’t have one at all.
Plus, thanks to our resident mechanic, Jim, you’ll find out what commonly goes wrong with them and what might need to be fixed.
Most importantly, we want to make ReDriven a voice for the most in-the-know used car experts there are...you guys.. See, you’re the ones that actually buy, live with, love and sometimes unfortunately hate the cars we’ll be reviewing.
So we want to hear your thoughts. Hit us up in the comments, or on Instagram and Facebook.
We’d love nothing more than for you to give us as much feedback as possible, so we can make this channel the best it can be.

I took one for a test drive today and had a couple of gripes, although minor: Shifting 3rd to 2nd, gear stick does require a bit of a shove, to get it over, it doesn't want you to shift down lol. Might be a pest for people with a weak wrist And that centre console lid, every time I shift it makes this tapping noise. Needs a piece of rubber stuck in there, to shut it up. Other than that, I found it just a pleasure to drive around, it was like putting on a well made glove, it just felt... Spot on, a well balanced car, all around. Wife hated that she couldn't fiddle with the infotainment as much as she wanted to, unless the handbreak was on.

I have 3 i30s. A 6 year old Exceed bought for a daughter - just fine. A nearly 5 year old SR Premium with the small turbo engine - definitely a Golf beater (I had 2 Golfs before) - which I bought for me but gave to another daughter 2 years ago. And a 2 year old NLine Premium which I drive. The SR and the NLine are 97% identical but the later NLine is worse than the older SR. It doesn’t have blind spot monitoring or rear cross traffic monitoring which the SR has. And the lane traffic assist is a nightmare because it doesn’t work in tunnels (and Sydney has a lot of them) and it constantly chimes 20 times in a row for no apparent reason that the dealership can explain. It’s probably back to a Golf for me next time.

I have a 2008 I30 SLX turbo diesel which we bought new. We ended up getting the same clunking noise which cost $700 to repair and not long after also continued to make the noise again. Outside of a new clutch and cylinders it has been a solid vehicle. It has done almost 300K and we have had it 15 years - I think that is a good innings, what else could you ask for. That was until yesterday when the power steering stopped working. So we have decided to retire it and have been looking at getting a 2017 model, which is the reason I am here. @ReDriven I also think this is a great channel. It is fine to always review things that are new, but let's face it, not all of us are in that market. It is a good change to have a reviewer looking at the used market and also Australian which is even better.

Especially because the new screen's only physical button, the volume has been moved to the middle maybe to please driver and passenger as well. At least my steering will be leather. :) And the petrol engine of my choice from the new selection is a 1.5 t-gdi i-MT mhev with 160hp.

I have a Porsche Cayman 981 GTS and the Hyundai Elantra GT Sport (I 30 with 1.6 l Turbo). The Hyundai is my daily driver and I am always amazed how good this car is. The value is globally un-matched.... I got the top of the line car without tech package for 20K. It has nice leather seats with red trim. Porsche charges 5K just for Red stitching. I love the Elantra GT sport. It is 100% best value while it also deliveries in performance, driving dynamics (with just a tiny bit of too much understeer), reliability and running cost. It is the superior hatch and daily driver.

I have an i30 Crdi Fd manual. Very near on 300,000 km’s and never done any serious work, just regular servicing. Does 950 to 1,000km to a tank in mixed driving for me on average. Have replaced the alternator, starter motor, and a few window switches (this is expensive because the whole door has to come apart and fitting it it a headache). An interior door handle and sunshine’s also had to be replaced but it sits out in baking sun in summer and rain in winter so you might expect that impacts plastics. If it weren’t for the tacky plastics this would be the most reliable car ever made.

Why not a higher trim level? In the used market there’s barely a few grand separating the bargain basement $25k when new fleet special and the $40k fully loaded luxe pack that makes a Mercedes blush. Personally I find all of those make me more satisfied with the car in the long run as there’s less I really desire in a new car if you already have heated, ventilated, electric seats, rear air vents, bright LED headlights, head up display and all the stuff reserved for the top model.

Just got my 'new to me' (used) 2018 i30 diesel automatic (Active). I liked it during the test drive, but after a couple of months, I love it even more than first drive. I mainly drive it in Eco mode, and the economy is getting better and better (I do a combo of 2/3 freeway and 1/3 traffic). For thrills I occasionally put it in Sport mode, just because! Corners beautifully (as I knew it would even before I got it). Performance is still reasonably good in Eco mode. It is cheaper to run than my smaller petrol Peugeot 206, and the i30 diesel purrs like a kitten, rarely ever going beyond 2k rpm. I don't find the radio volume control an issue, I always use the controls on the steering wheel (as one should). The body styling is better than the previous i30 styling, sleeker and more streamlined rather than angular-looking. Sleek, not 'conservative'. If I have one niggle, it would be the seat. Designed for an average Caucasian man (5'9"-6'0"), so not the ideal fit for an average-sized female (5'5"). Perhaps the higher models have better/wider adjustments? Seating is not uncomfortable, but nor is it ideal either. I would still choose it all over again, such a pleasure to drive. After 50 years of driving manuals, still getting used to an auto (I do miss manual, but so much more traffic and roadworks these days, an auto is the order of the day). Over a year ago, I did test drive a 2012 auto diesel, which was fine. But my 2018 is so much better, and they have come a long way in a short space of time.

The Excel was part of the growing pains of a new car company. It's absolutely pathetic that long standing car companies such as volkswagen or ford or GM, for example, still continue to manufacture substandard vehicles that are costly to maintain over time. Can you genuinely say that about Hyundai presently?

I had one of these a Go variant with the Smart Sense package. Loved that car. They are something like a Korean Corolla. Sadly my I30 gotten written off in an accident at a roundabout because some P plater didn't give way! tsk tsk, silly boy but fortunately both of us were OK I got paid out by my insurance Co nearly the amount I bought it for. So I'm looking for a new car, I've been looking at Mazdas, the Corrollas, another I30, and the Kia Ceratos, they look pretty good.

Your mean about the excel!! I had a late 90s one for about $900 for daily driver and was so reliable. Cost me $22 and hour of my time to change front break pads. Didn't have to lock it when parked at shopping centre lol a new ding? Who gives a flying f#ck 😆

It's frustrating isn't it. Apparently one of the biggest detergents to car jackings in the US is manual transmission.

Not everyone wants to get their legs cramped shifting manual in traffic. I can drive stick but I can see the benefit of the automatic gearbox.

I have driven manuals for 50 years. Just got myself the auto i30 diesel, because traffic (and roadworks) is hard on the old knees. Otherwise, I would still be driving a manual. Getting used to the auto, gradually. Big driving culture shift for me!

Worst TPM system ever, and the door lock button is in a terrible spot. Other than that a fairly solid car.
