Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video, I'm having a go in the Hyundai i20N. With small hatchback slowly fading away, can this 200bhp Korean hatch be our saviour?
Watch the video to find out - enjoy.

This i20N is a nice surprise. Really good fun to drive, good standard equipment and more importantly…. It’s got a HANDBRAKE 😎🔥

Loved your sideways grand entrance and loved the rest of the video too, my goodness, I love i20n's, mine makes me smile every day 😊😊😊
I'm not sure at which point in time I wasn't paying attention but one minute a brand new hot hatch could be had for less than £17k, now they're £10k more than that. Great video and these look like an absolute hoot to drive but even 2nd hand they're fetching daft money.

Proper consumer journalism mush! Good stuff
You told me someting really important 'the bolster's could be a bit tighter'. This is massive for me, I can't fit in ST seats as I have a wide ribcage, no amount of dieting will change that. I had a Focus ST that I returned after 2 days due to issues with the seats causing shallow breathing. So these seats could work really well for me, great to know. Love your presentation style, I think you're a natural.👍
Great review. I love mine. Makes me chuckle every time I drive it.
Good review and agree those points. Had one for 6 months so know what it’s all about now.
As always bro nothing but quality from you, keep up the amazing content. ❤❤

Nice Sid way intro what a treat
Not the only reviewer to say they prefer the little 120n over it's bigger brother 😀

@@Stormagaming Good and fun drive, I guarantee over a year you will be love i20N also 😀 More fun you get only in 911 (manual:) but its another world and Porsche 911 is not a daily car, but i20N can be. First oil better in 1500-2500 km, (normal by 10.000, but i change by 5000 in my dealer, by 10.000 oil and service). And dont turn N-mode on cold engine on, better wait to 80- 90 C engine temp.
Renault sport rebranded as alpine. The A290 is coming out next year and is the electric hot hatch varient for the renault 5
Finally got your hands on one
nice bro, are you able to get your hands on a golf mk8 gti for review? maybe a nice-ish modified one.
Love mine - same colour too Not that fast in a straight line, but pulls 1g laterally around round abouts on three wheels Its hilarious
A great Video Iam glad you enjoyed I have one on order 😀 👍

The weird thing is, if you open the window a smidge, the sound is better from the engine and exhaust. The fed in sound isn’t that loud anyway. Pointless yes. A negative? Meh, I barely notice it.

@@patrickbateman7122 I don’t think anything would replace what it does. Unless you want bigger and comfier or something faster on a drag strip, I’m not sure what would be better. When the tunes and mods really start to come in over the coming years it’s also going to be giving bigger hot hatches costing over twice as much more than a run for their money 😉
