Default Can anyone tell what car this is?

Saw it on the M5 yesterday, and weren't able to get pics from the front.
Had a sign on the side saying no photos.

If it's in a public place they can't stop you taking pics

Edit............

According to the RMS site it's a 2016 Silver Hyundai Hatch/Sedan.

My first guess was a VW. Then looked at the body lines & thought, "Probably a Hyundai, a new I30"

Scroll down, and there we go.

Thanks for the replies.
I didn't know you could check the rego on the RMS site, thanks.
I thought maybe Subaru based on the wheels and front guard.

Definitely the new i30. Australia is the biggest market for the i30 in the world, so important that a lot of testing is done here.
