Kia Sedona (2006 - 2012) 2.9 CRDi LS 5d (2007/57) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Man with three kids that need to be delivered to school whilst not sitting next to each other.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Great, especially the tinted windows black with black paint work!!

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes, good price and lots of room.

What are you likely to buy next?

Another one but with slightly better fuel consumption. Hopefully in a few years Kia will bring out a more fuel / green engine. The diesel does not perform as the book predicts, perhaps no surprise but we would have expected a bit more from the diesel around town. This is the only negative we have about the car and the fact the removable seats are both heavy and sometimes hard to refit. It also doesn't have some of the nice features that other MPV's have such as air temperature and radio/CD on a stick, these are minor niggles but not a real drama.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£17,000

When did you buy the car?

November 2007

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes good price. managed to get a competitive price with DVD player from a dealer comparable with online prices

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Best MPV that we sat in. Would have liked another old style Previa because of the space etc. New previa did not meet our requirements.

What was the dealer like?

Great

What's it like to drive?

Enjoyable to drive on long journeys, does pitch a bit but what would you expect for a large MPV, its not a sports car!!

What's it like to park?

Great with the parking sensors but it is big / wide unlike my wife!!

Have you had any problems with the car?

No, although slight intermittent problems with electric doors. Told it is because we park on a slope.

What's most practical about your car?

Space and electric doors, DVD keeps the kids quiet on long journeys and parking sensors for my wife!!

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Electric doors, DVD player, parking sensors
