My Mum had a Kia, everyone but she thought it was great. As Nick says full of features for the money. She had the deciding vote by driving it at full throttle into a brick wall, neither she or it drove again.  She still maintains it was the car's fault.

The one I drove in France had about 20 buttons on the steering wheel. I had no idea what they were all for and used to press them randomly as I drove about. Nothing ever seemed to happen/change rubschin:

Another good thing is that they don't hold their value. I was looking at some that had been priced at c£18000 when new and had lost 50% of that in 6 months. Good second hand buy :thumbsup:

One of our neighbours has a Sorento. You get a lot for the money and it hasn't broken yet. Been in it but not driven, seems very comfortable.

I think it would give the owld Panjero a run for its money.

Never buy a new one of course, but that applies to any brand.
