The Roomster is using proven German VW parts, engine (I belive it is the Golf Mk 4 engine) and technology.

 

Not to say Hyundie not good but btw Euro and korean wat u choose?

 

On yes, the Roomster service interval is 15000km. No 1k, no 5k, no 10k. Its 15k, 30, 45k etc, u get the idea.

 

$$ saved can be substancial.

 

The Roomster also have a 6 gear triptronic gear box, very smooth.

 

I say test drive both and see which i prefer more.

Actually I like the old Subaru Impreza Wagon but when I was looking for car, it was no more in production.

 

The Legacy wagon lagi power but over my budget.

Both very good choice.

 

Have a test drive n see which one u

 

like driving more.

Agreed. But be sure to check the OMV and calculate the depreciation.

 

Though Roomster's service interval is 15k km, be sure to include potentially higher maintainence costs as well

Actually the roomster is quite a good car. Rides well, drives well...

 

but the roomster will have to compete with the Kia Soul that's coming next year.

Own the Roomster... test driven the i30CW... also owned Opel Astra, my view will be bias towards Roomster definitely...

 

I get more feel driving the Roomster than the i30CW. Not necessary in terms of power ( over/under power ), but more like how it handles.

 

One thing about Roomster is either u like it or u hate it.. ( in terms of design )..

 

after owning it.. I realize the design grows on you.. it looks good actualyl... and the driving feel is nice and smooth.. firm and sure footed.

 

If I want a powered car, there's a plenty on the road... Kelisa is one that gives good power to weight ratio.. :P
