1 1.4 3dr Hatchback

Fantastic value

Bought this car at 6 months old and 1500 miles for an excellent price from the Kia main dealer. With 6.5 years warranty left I've got a good few years of great value motoring left to go. As a car, it's not quite as good as the very best you can get, ie the interior isn't quite as good as a golf, the ride/handling isn't quite as good as a focus etc. But it's not far behind the best in any area I can come across and it's ahead in some. The engine is brilliant - A 1.4 with 89bhp is never going to be quick, but it can keep up fine and is so flexible (fourth gear will take you from just over 20mph to 70mph (and more I guess!) without complaints). It's reasonably economical too (45mpg is the best I've got). And it's a lot quicker than a 1.4 golf mk6 I've had on hire before! I've read of complaints of rearwards vision, but it's not bad for me, but I am tall. Not had any problems with the car, servicing is not that expensive, but varies a lot from dealer to dealer. The longer I've had the car the more I come to like it - It is an excellent car. Overall it is cracking value - You get a lot of car and a lot of warranty for the money
