I love my Kia Pride

Advantages: Economical, Simple and low mainteance expenses
Disadvantages: not so stylist

...has one unit of 1997 Kia pride Lx sedan model available on his garage. At first i was hesitant to buy this car because i am hearing a lot of confusing things and advices from my friends but what the heck! this is the only decent car that would fit my budget that time, and so i took it. I named it "Adrian" and treat it as my first born. You can't expect much from it since it was a second hand and an ex-cab. Yet, it surprise me by its performance. ...
...speed exceeded my expectation. My Kia pride is just a simple car and it look better if you just let it that way. The maintenance wont give you a headache (unlike what my office mates gets from their car). Every thing is affordable with Kia pride. This car consumes fuel economically and its size is a huge advantage when driving in traffic. ...

Review of Kia Pride

Kia Magentis 2.5 V6

Advantages: Fast, comfortable, looks good. On a motorway surprisingly good on fuel. Wonderful value.
Disadvantages: Economy about town

...more goodies inside although mechanically the LE series are as good. Best part are the mechanics, the original Kia 2.5 litre engine is very robust and reliable engine giving a very acceptable 0 to 60 in 7 seconds, for a car of this size and weight is very good. ...

Review of Kia Magentis 2.5 V6

I could not ask for more

Advantages: great mileage, smooth drive, cheap insurance
Disadvantages: bland interior.

I have had this car for 3 years now and I have got nothing but praise for it. I have never had any problems and the insurance is very cheap due to the low insurance group. I have not replaced the standard stereo or speakers because I have never felt they needed upgrading, the sound quality is impressive for this type of vehicle. I live in an area with below average roads and the Cerato handles them perfectly, the ride quality is extremely pleasant. ...
...I cannot remember owning a car with as good mileage as this. I use the car for the weekly shopping run and I always find I have enough room for the shopping. I have even managed to get a set of golf clubs in the boot! The standard seats a very comfortable and I always manage to fit people in the front and back. The interior is the only real disappointment in this car, its grey and plastic which is never a good combination in my opinion. Others ...

Review of Kia Cerato 1.5 CRDi

Long term reliability of this little car.

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful. With good comfort for a tall bloke
Disadvantages: None really.

I bougfht the car from new after my previous car was written off. My daughter was just coming up to start driving lessons and I wanted a car suitable for someone to learn in and have as a little run about afterwards. In fact she has now grown up and gone but I have kept the car rather than trading it in for something more "macho" something Clarkson wouldn't snigger at. I would agree with all the people who said this car is excellent. It has a raft ...
...plays mp3 discs so you can put something of the order of 8 or 9 cds onto one mp3 disc and play the lot. It has all round disc brakes, ABS, Electronic brake force distribution. Fuel consumption is supposed to be about 50 mpg. I get nearer 45 but most of the miles I do are commuting ten miles to work each day and ten miles back so it doesn't really get warmed up. On longer runs it is a bit better. The one thing I really liked about it was the headroom ...
