  • 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.

    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.👍

    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.
