Kia Rio/Venga

Folks

Following the idiot driving into wifes car before Xmas (all fixed but not painted) we have been thinking of replacing it. She's had it nearly 10 years so tis fair I guess

Anyway, both quite like the look of the Kia Venga and the Rio, the latter having more affordable finance so just need to know what those who've had Kia think of them. Cracking warranty by all accounts, look well built and £0-30 rfl

Cheers

Simon

Speak to Gordon Riley (GordR) on the forum. He works at kia and would know any potential weak areas. He'd more than likely be able to find you one too!

I have customers with Kias and have been very happy with there cars, no major issues to report.

We've got a Kia Piccanto. It's a nice little car, doddle to drive but needs either a turbo or nitrous

Had several Kia's as hire cars, they've all been brilliant. Well, apart from their 'Chelsea Tractor' one (can't remember what it's called at the moment). It wasn't a nice drive, too big for the engine and a ridiculously small boot. I'm talking to overnight bags to fill it!!

I'd buy a Cee'd in a heartbeat, if I could afford one. I recommended a Cee'd SW to a girl at work, she loves it.

Both Kia and Hyundai are excellent.

In my experience of both as medium size hire cars, go with diesels
