The i30n fastback suspension is different to the hatch. The new hatch now has the same suspension as the fastback which was and is a lot more compliant. Fuel economy is the most off putting thing about the i30n, it's a tad thirsty.

5 year unlimited mileage warranty isn't to be sniffed at. The front 2/3 of the fastback looks ok but there is something not quite right at the rear to me..... A bit Laguna-ish? I haven't looked into it seriously as wouldn't buy one but a 'fastback hot hatch' could be a new 'sub segment'? Maybe only the A Class shooting brake competes though I'm guessing the A250 is the fastest you can get in that. And I suppose the 2 series coupe/type thingy (can't be bothered to look up what it is called).

Clubby's seem to be dropping in price

Wouldn't surprise me to see any dealer stock getting more discounts.... this stock must be killing their cashflow.

The whole motor trade is banking on a huge demand surge when lockdown lifts.... not sure I agree that will happen because a lot of people will not return to commuting... why replace your car if its going to sit on the drive? Does a family need multiple cars?

True, and we are all being pushed towards electric anyway, the government havent thought this sh!t through

The Tesla Model 3 is around the same price as the clubby here in Ireland. I'd have been tempted if they offered PCP...But they just offer car finance through Bank of Ireland at around 5% I think so the monthlies are crazy.

I love technology, you might have all noticed...

Even though everyone says tesla is the milk float to buy I'd not. The things are built like a crappy American built car, panel gaps a go go. That's before you get to the teslarati, who are practically a cult. Weapons grade *******s

I wonder what VW will have in 2-3 years time come end of my PCP term...the most expensive ID.3 here, the ID.3 Max is only €47,223...I'd be tempted to consider it also come time to change.

*Edit: Sorry that price is before grants. Price is €43,730
