Sounds like a V6

In no way would I buy one just came across it while searching for V6 cars (was curious lol)

If its anything like my mates Hyundai Matrix parts are either expensive or nonexistent. Presuming Kia is similar to Hyundai. :-\
-
Cant say i've seen one of these on the roads either, Must be exclusive :D ;D
-
A good mate used one a few years ago as a taxi. He had no specific problems with it ....... if only he could say the same of the Easytronic Vectra that he'd just got rid of.
-
Oh deary, deary me ::) better off buying an Omega and saving the rest for fuel :y
-

It could be mechanical issues or just the cost of running it but cant see any rust on them :-\ Cheap as chips ...

Figures for the 2.5 V6.
-
Oh dear god no, that's FUGLY :o
-
I've seen 4 year olds draw better cars than that ;D ;D ;D ;D That thing is so ugly-its funny ;D ;D
-
That is a gopping car!
It's like they came up with something with about as much character as a Toyota Avensis and the boss told them to go away and stick some more chhrome bits on to "make it look posh". ::)

It is pretty much a Mitsubishi Gallant, mechanically excellent and very very fast in V6 form....... :y :y
-
Nice info mate... :y... Maybe I can recommend this to my friends :)
-
These are bad cars, took one in as a P/X before, never again.

OH really? Thanks to you :y , you save the day! I supposed to recommend it to my friend, he is looking for car brand new or used.
-
A friend has one, comfortable seats, ride not to bad, abit wallowy, interior abit bland, but at least it doesn`t fall off, but goes like the clappers, can be picked for not alot of money now, worth a punt for a year or two`s motoring, like any motor you can get a good one / bad one.
-
Cant comment on the bigger Kia engines but the smalelr ones are SO bad, very unreliable, trying getting a good second hand one (always a bad sign!)
-
Now this is a bit of alright and a large engine 3.3 V6 ideal and only 3k for a 56 reg
http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201302055206570?atmobcid=soc3
And to be honest it's a better looker overall over that KIA
-

But they are much much better looking, as iv bought a twinturbo spec ;D ;D :y

Looking again at those links I think I like the 02 model more than the 03, only ever seen 1 in the flesh about 4 years ago..... :) :)

Just looked on eBay and Autotrader the 3.3 V6 is rare, most likely not many sold when new :-\

Personally i like the look of the Hyundi more. Probably the Lexus is the better car.
-
Has anyone ever considered one of these ?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEXUS-LS-400-4-0-V8-4-DR-SALOON-PETROL-AUTO-/310536523386?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item484d6b4e7a
Granted they ain't that good looking but they seem well put together and have nice enough interior and the best bit a 4.0 V8 under the bonnet. They seem to hold their value and do galactic miles.
-
This one looks a tad better and looks well equipped.

Not that long ago when someone mentioned Kia it always reminded me of one of these :o

Strangely enough there's only 1 on AutoTrader and none on eBay that I could find, They were really common around here.
Looks like it might become a collectors car at this rate.
They Just Didn't have any Pride...

It wouldn't look half bad with some decent wheels. They sound good too.

I've spent many an hour on forecourts looking at the LS400 'uuuummming and aaaahhhhing' over whether or not a 30 yr old could get away with driving one.
As yet, I've not parted with money. They are extremely nice, comfortable barges though.
