I spent a day driving the i30N around Millbrook a few weeks ago, and it is a very impressive car. The e-diff is fantastic, and gives incredible front end bite in all conditions. The engine sounds good and feels strong, and there's a playful feel to the handling that reminded me of a Peugeot 306 GTI-6. What's more despite a full day of being thrashed to within an inch of their lives, including one car that spent the day being revved to its limiter in neutral by 60 or so people so they could hear the pops and bangs, nothing broke, fell off, or stopped working. The idea that a Hyundai would be mentioned in the same sentence as a Golf GTI would have been laughable a couple of years ago, but this really does do things a GTI can't. Mostly deliver a genuine sense of fun and a level of interaction in the handling that is missing from so many modern cars. It's an absolutely brilliantly set up, thoroughly developed car that deserves to sell as fast as they can build it.

Some say, he can be in two places at once. And he only uses such an ability to race against himself.

And with this, the FWD hot hatch segment is intense.. With the Type R at the very top. Just wish there would be a new MazdaSpeed3 to compete, but the i30N is a monster and the GTI is a performer as to be expected.

the manual already puts up a good fight because of the rev matching and torque vectoring and slip diff. i work for hyundai as well as own an i30n and you would not believe the amount of tech that goes into this cars gear box and engine. it will even put the turbo into over boost if youre just under the power band and you can hear it whistling way above the engine sound until you get in the power band then the engine takes over. in addition it will increase the rate of flow by the fuel pump too. the clutch is an absolute monster because it is built for reliability too and if you put it in second instead of 4th at 90 mph cause im an idiot sometimes the gear box will cope with it very well and it will slow the fuel pump down starving the engine until youre under 7k revs. all in all it is a serious bit of kit and lot of people dont know it in full.

The Hyundai I30 N is a daily driver built by Biermann to be pushed and punished, and that's why Hyundai won't void your warranty if you take it to the track and push it. The GTI is a plush daily driver that will not withstand the punishment. VW now has to up its game, which means better brakes, bushings and suspension upgrades to run with the N.

Golf got so fed up bean beaten up when they are the benchmark that the mk8 doesn’t have a small increase like its predecessors. It’s gone all in with a 300hp model. Where does that leave the R

Brilliant driving skills

The GTI is SA's most loved hot hatch without doubt. Pity all we get from Hyundai about the I30n is a "maybe".

Korean cars are getting very good.10 years back I would not even have considered buying one.And they are great value for money these days.

As long as there is competition in this segment, the customer always wins

I think the i30n still wins but would be a much tighter race on a dry track.
