New Hyundai i30 N-Line Test Drive 

No

N Line does not add any equipment - it just adds sporty look. All the systems and comfort features are available only in N Line Plus or in the Style (non N Line) version. At least here in Slovakia.

If you want a huge bill at some stage, then yes autos are the way to go.

@@Benzknees _" If you want a huge bill at some stage, then yes autos are the way to go."_ Seriously? What huge bill would you get in an auto that could possibly compare to having to replace your EV battery?

@@jiminverness - What's an EV got to do with manual gearboxes?

@@Benzknees _"What's an EV got to do with manual gearboxes?"_ Well, you warned that you thought by choosing to buy an automatic rather than a manual, that one would potentially be up for a "huge bill" (presumably for replacing the transmission). EV's are being pushed madly by governments, and quite a lot of people have been buying them. They only have a single gear, so no significant bill for transmission issues. However, their batteries are immensely expensive and don't have a huge lifetime, and worse, a number fail qutie prematurely. I'm essentially saying, your bill risk for choosing an automatic over a manual is nothing compared to choosing an EV over either.

@@jiminverness - Well yes, but your OP was about autos being a better choice than manuals. A pal of mine specialises in auto gearbox repair & has advised me never to get an auto gearbox, due to the rate of failure & high cost of repair. Plus manuals are more economic on fuel, offer better engine braking & more control.
