Question 3

What should I check when buying a used 2017 Hyundai i30 in NZ?

Accepted Answer

Request as much service history as possible - regular servicing matters more than promises from the seller. Test the automatic cold from startup — any shudder, hesitation or warning lights on first takeoff should be investigated further. Inspect lower sills, wheel arches and underbody for rust - especially on coastal or South Island cars. Check all electronics work - climate control, infotainment, reverse camera, and any safety tech fitted. If it says N-Line or 1.6T, do a cold DCT take-off. If it is a 2.0, enjoy the ordinary 6AT. Confirm AEB/lane functions and CarPlay on the screen. Run a PPSR check and review WOF history before buying. Compare condition and service records across listings - the best-value example is often the best-kept one not the cheapest.

Question 4

Is the 2017 Hyundai i30 a good used buy in New Zealand?

Accepted Answer

The 2017 Hyundai i30 is the third-generation PD sold new in NZ. The family car is a 2.0-litre MPI with a 6-speed auto. N-Line adds the 1.6 T-GDi and a 7-speed DCT — a different ownership proposition. ANCAP is 5 stars (2017) with AEB standard.
