Good Points

Cute looks. Five doors. Spacious. Comfortable with plenty legroom, shoulder space and good headroom. Fantastic visibility. Good turning circle.


Bad Points

Although interior dash and door cards look well it does not appear to be hard wearing.
Scratches starting to appear.

Small boot but sufficient for my needs with lots of little storage places.


General Comments

I am an Approved Driving Instructor and purchased this 1.1 automatic to replace a Hyundai Amica.

Small engined as it may be the Kia has more than enough power to climb the hills round here, do a days work as a driving school car and return 38.9 mpg.

At motorway speeds it is surprisingly civilized, not too noisy and keeping up with the other traffic.

So far with just under 1000 miles I am more than pleased with the little car.

BTW my other car is a BMW 525 auto and I positively enjoy driving the Kia just as much as the 5 series.
