Annnnnd just like that, itās (somehow!?) been a whole year of i30n ownership! š„³
I canāt lie, this car is FUN. I was worried, quite wrongfully, that I might get too āusedā to it- worried that I might not get as giggly and excited as I was in those first few months everytime I turned it onā¦
Thankfully, oh my good god, was I wrong.
This thing is just such a wonderful beast to own. Everytime I drive it I get to smile just a little bit harder than the time before & itās made even the most mundane of trips into something really special. Turning it on & fighting the urge to let out a full librarian style āshhh!ā at the sound of its cold start incase the neighbours wake has become one of my favourite parts of early jobs.
From a technical point of view, itās fun to drive and is built rather well yes, but from a very basic human point of view, this thing, quite simply, makes me happy. And hey, I think that counts more than anything when it comes to loving cars right?
So, Evie, my wonderful blue i30n. Thank you for 365 days of utter joy! š«¶
