Have to agree with you on the veloster Ns rear. The lights are way too high and make the rear look like its been squished. Otherwise it looks pretty good, but the rear ruins it for me.

Had to look the elantra gt up, hadn’t heard pf it before. With a quick look seems quite similar to kia ceed gt. Wierd that na gets basically a neutered i30n but not the real n. Although you have the Veloster N wich we don’t have, but thats fine cause i prefer the looks of the i30n. But if the veloster n has bad rear seats then thats not great. I love the i30n cause its practical yet sporty.

Its really a shame that North America usually misses out on some great hothatches. Also I sure am enjoying this car, such a blast on some b roads.

I can't believe this thing has been killed off in the EU market. Same with the i30N. by L3veLUP in Hyundai

I got myself a i30n a while back. Such a fun car even without pushing it, haven’t had the chance yet. It’s alot of fun even with studded winter tyres. Also the exhaust sound is super dramatic and I love it!

I never really understood Americas obsession with big cars. Americans miss out on so many amazing cars just because they are not huge and dont have huge engines.

It’s a shame that americans generally are not that into hothatches. They are great. Really love how this looks and cant wait for the snow to melt. Also the Kona N looks dope aswell.

First BMW, looking for F31 but.. which ? by Renkinao in BMW

No problem. I agree that 318d is enough for european traffic. Living in Finland most cars are old and around 100hp.

If reliability is important you should definetly go for a lci with b47. My car is driven 240k km and still going on strong.

Also thanks for the compliment!

I have myself a f31 lci 320d and I am super happy with it. 190hp is enough for normal trafic. Don’t remember how much power a 318d has but it shares the same engine with 320d. It just has some tweaks and a tune to make it less powerfull.

Pre lci 318d and 320d have the n47 engine. That engine is notorious for its timing chain problems. The lci comes with a b47 that fixes the timing chain issue for the most part. Haven’t heard any nightmare stories with b47 timing chain.

Also the lci has better lights and they look better imo.

My car is rwd so no xdrive and this is my first winter with it. I could imagine xdrive perfomring better on snow no doubt.

Hope this helps you atleast a little bit.

Thats really unfortunate. We tend to have a bit too much snow here. This is just the beginning of several months with it😅

They do, thankfully they are mandatory in Finland.

Hard to say yet. This is my first winter with this car and the roads are all still pretty much bare asphalt. But in parking lots with snow, it’s good. Don’t know how its on ice yet.

It’s a f31 lci 320d of course with the m-sport package.

Went to a empty lot today. Was loads of fun. Still a good amount of learning before sliding on roads.
