Interesting...

Can't seem to get the image of a Kia Pride out of my head though whenever Kia is mentioned  :o ;D

Doesn't look like it's going to be sold in the UK anyway...

Interesting, some of the latest Kia's have been good looking cars. Could be a deprecation disaster waiting to happen, if they did flog it here.

True, Wouldn't mind one for a grand or there about's  ;D, Don't they also come with somewhere around 5,7,10 years warranty also ?

I'd buy one after it's depreciated to the value of an Omega  :y

Looks pretty decent

Wrong wheel drive, and expensive...

You won't find new ones as that was the last one built/sold in Europe...

Too expensive to be competitive, warranty or no warranty :-\

The autotrader links are fwd, replacement model is rwd and most definitely not sold in Europe...

The Kia Dog in the first link is based on the Hianddry Genesis, which replaced the model in the Autotrader link :y

'Tard

I was clearly referring to the two shit boxes on Autotrader.
It's irrelevant anyways as they're not selling the Kia Dog in Europe, or the Hyundai Genesis that it's based on rwd or not :-X
