    The SWs are actually more sought after than the hatchbacks.

    Great engine in those. Genuine little rocket. Interior is a but plastic fantastic but it is a good machine. Brother in law has one and they really do stand over the warranty. No questions whatsover, if it is an issue, they will fix it under warranty.

    That's 125k miles which is above average for a 4 year old diesel car. Obviously that mileage means the Kia warranty has expired, what sort of service history does it have? It could be looking at replacing some expensive consumable parts such as the clutch/flywheel, DPF, etc around the corner.

    The Ceed estate has an awful problem with front shocks. Some people have had to have them replaced 3 timed within 150,000km under warranty.
