Bad Points
I have no criticisms of the car at all but numerous complaints about the service and broken promises received from the dealership I bought it from in Torrevieja, Spain. I probably made a wrong choice of dealer as friends who bought from other sources received the expected, first class service!
General Comments
The very comprehensive kit included with the Kia Ceed is second to none. It must be one of the safest cars on the road with its 6 airbags and the electronic safety devices. In gear acceleration is fantastic giving safe and easy overtaking manoeuvres. The sixth gear gives very good economy for a 2.0 litre diesel. Comfort and build quality is very good and it's easy for anyone to find a comfortable driving position. The leather seats with fabric insets give comfortable support without the sticking, sweaty feeling normally associated with all leather seats. The load area in my estate is enormous and then the rear seats can be folded down 60/40 or totally to give an enormously long, flat platorm. Of course, the 7 year warranty gives total peace of mind for its ownership life
Overall, I find it very difficult to fault this car and am totally happy with every aspect of it. I would certain recommend this car to anyone.
