Advantages: A wonderfull nippy, well designed and comfortable car with surprisingly a lot of room Disadvantages: Small boot (but it has storage under it)
...In October last year I purchased a new Kia Picanto GS as I needed a small comfortable, reliable and fuel economic 5 door vehicle as I was beginning to do lots of miles for work.
Before I bought a vehicle i knew i would find it difficult finding one i liked as i had a long wish list of things i wanted the car to have, and it had to be disability friendly as i have got arthritis, even though i'm only 25 years old.
In order to buy the correct vehicle I test drove and loaned other vehicles, including; Citroen C1/C2/C3, Ford Ka, Chevrolet/Daewoo Matiz, Fiat Panda, Nissan Micra, Peugeot 106/1007/206, Smart ForFour, Toyota Aygo & VW Lupo/Fox/Golf and others. However not one of these fully meet my needs and i began to look at other makes/models, including the Kia Picanto. At first i was sceptable about the Kia brand, as i knew nothing...

Advantages: cheap, easy to drive, perfect first car. Disadvantages: no power steering.
...i am currently learning to drive and my kia pride is perfect for me to drive around in in between lessons.
i was given this car as a present from a relative, and she assured me that she has never had any major problems with it the whole 13 years she has been driving it.
it is a small, yet perfectly formed little car, easy to drive and relatively cheap to run.
the insurance only costs me £60 a month as a learner, although i know this will go up when i pass.
although this car isnt the most good looking car in the world, i am quite happy with it. it gets me from A to B so i can not complain too much.
the car comes with a cassette player and radio, which can be replaced with a more modern cd player if you wanted....

...Having 5 children we needed some thing a bit bigger than the rover we had. We started to look around and visit web sites for a people carrier. We also looked at the ones that we passed on the road and saw the Kia Sedona. It looked very spacious, a nice smooth curvy body.
We went to our local Kia dealers and had a look at the different models of Sedona they had. We didn’t want a second hand one in case anything happened to it we would not of had a fall back plan. We looked at the Kia Sedona SX and decided that this was the one for our family and us.
We could fold all the back seats down and push them forward and have a large backspace if we needed it, also when the seats were upright and pushed forward there was quite a lot of space in the boot department, which we were surprised about.
The engine is beautiful and runs really...
