That was until I was introduced to the charms of the second performance model from Hyundai in the UK - the N version of the i30
Fastback.
The roadster costs PS28,095 and the folding hardtop
fastback RF PS29,895.
THE latest model in Hyundai's new sporting trim, the i30
Fastback N Line, is now ready for the road and available from dealers with prices starting from PS20,495 rising to PS24,760.

On mountain roads at the car's launch in Gran Canaria we saw an average of just 20 to the gallon while on the track consumption rose to single figures with the
Fastback N showing just 9mpg on its trip computer.
AN ESTATE car is being added to Peugeot's flagship 508 range - and it drives even better than the
fastback on which it is based.
Meanwhile, the
FastBack Revolution OMS System combines the seasoning performance of the patented dynamic AccuFlavor[TM] Tumble Drum, the efficiency of the Modular Dust Collection System, and the advanced
FastBack 260E-G3 into one compact, cost-efficient, standalone unit designed to overcome seasoning challenges at the weigher.
So I am putting that right this week with the new i30
Fastback Premium - and was looking forward to adding the Korean car maker to my new car tick list.
"i30 N, Veloster N and i30
Fastback N have the same performance gene and share a strong character," said Thomas Schemera, Executive Vice President, Head of High Performance Vehicle & Motorsport Division.
