    Hi,

    i own a Kia Sorento as one of my vehicles and my partner has a hyunsdai suv - as sister marque of the kia brand.

    anyways, they are imho -

    decently made, a bit plasticy inside, good value for money on some models,easy to service, parts not too dear nor not to cheap either - overall a decent purchase but whaty i have found with mine, is that it is uber reliable.

    re; the cerato - god, i dont like those side,front and rear spoilers. also, at 12.5k - it may seem priced ok, but the depreciation on this car will drop like a stone and will probably not be worth more than 3or 4 k in 2 or 3 years time.............depreciation on this model will be wicked........have you tried a ford focus?.....good car..good interior and ride in contrast to the kia cerato... good residuals too.......

    think it over well.

    best of luck with your purchase.

    my Dad choose a Sorento over a Megane and is very happy with his choice. Much better value for money. I'd like a sporty Cee'd myself but I think its just the 7 year warranty that I'm after. That one you are looking at on carzone, personally I think looks horrible. The kit is terrible but that's just my opinion

    The Sportage is a lovley motor and a 7 year warrenty to boot:eek:
    7 years warrenty, speaks for itself

    the 7 year warranty is just up to 100k...........so its clever marketing.....but a good deal none the less.

    also, i'd like to know is it the engine and gearbox thats covered up to 100k or 7 years - or is it the whole suv?
    Does anyone know?
