  • I found myself with a few hours to spare whilst up the coast two hours from home supporting my five year old Daughter at the National Dance finals so I hastily googled 'near by driving roads' and found a Motorbike forum talking about 'Kidaman rd'
    Without doing much further reading I entered the location into maps and heading west to the hills.
    Much to my despair after shoe horning my gear into the hatch, the car didn't start!
    The dash indicated 'key not recognised' but my somewhat tone deaf 'Mechanical Ear' said it was a good ole flat Battery.
    I walked in the midday heat to a Supacheap Auto and purchased a Jump start kit, something I've wanted in my Garage for a while anyway.
    Thankfully the Unit came with some charge already and the i30N kicked into life without any further issues.
    Check out how the rest of the story unfolded.

    Hot hatches have come along way, back in the day it was XR6 Turbos, XR8 Falcons and SS Commodores. Now it’s Golf R’s and GTI’s, i30N Hatch and Sedan, Civic Type R’s, GR Yaris etc.

      I went in to test out the new laser all wheel drive back in the day- laggy, torque steer, no grunt. Got out and into an xr8 manual bought it on the spot!

    I'm jealous haha. That tarmac section looked like it could be a lot of fun. In the UK most of the roads around where I live are in a poor state!

      HNY Richard. Yeh lucky around here. There are a couple of roads closer to me I drive regularly. I’ve made a few videos on them recently check those out. GA

      @@GuysGarage Happy New Year too mate. I will take a look thanks :) I have just part ex'd my current i30n for the DCT. Never thought I would as I have always been a manual guy, but the facelift model is something else. That with the fact if you like to mod, the turbo is different and I have heard the new one can take you up to 350BHP on a stage 1 tune! All the Best!

      @@GuysGarage Oh dear, 'wasn't broken doesn't sound good'. My previous i30n was my first hot hatch, used to be a nuts biker back in the day. I am really impressed with Hyundai and this car. The DCT is another level for me.
