My observations were:
The 308 was nice to drive and engaging at normal road speed. But deceptive at how quickly it went from say 50-80kph. It's very capable but the gear change is sloppy.The golf is completely well rounded. But requires more speed to feel anything. Has a reassuring feel about though.
The i20... It's like an old school hatch. The interior would have been ok a decade ago, but it feels cheap. But then I kind of like that. It was the most engaging, but I suspect that's because the chassis was the least comfortable and most firm.
For context, my 306 is the perfect car (in my head)

If you're using the 308 regularly, then 3.5k brake change doesn't sound sensible.
Between the Golf and the Hyundai, is the Hyundai really going to be more exciting? Or just slower and less capable therefore invoking a feeling of difference.
If anything, the manual gearbox in the Golf will make it more engaging.
