kia`s fine for what it is it`s not the most economical car but its comfortable and goes on the first turn of the key
missing the Mondeo`s power and economy more than the car itself
probably keep the kia for another 12-18 month done 12k in it now only cost me £150 in parts (discs and pads all round front ball joint and rear links)fitting done for free by the mechanic at work next job is a new clutch still on original at 97k thank god there is no dmf
