Kia Sorento 2.5 CRDi XS 5d Auto (5 Speed) (2004/04) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Noothing can come anywhere near it for value and quality. With such low depreciation we bought an ex-Demo as it was not worth going for an older second hand one.
Costs
Beter fuel economy than my previous Land Rover Disco TD5, around 32mpg.

On the road
Driving
A really relaxed drive, with an engine that just has so much torque and seamless gear changes. This is my first diesel automatic and for towing and in traffic it is really excellent. Ride and handling better than Disco Series 2 with ACE.
Performance
Not a rocket ship, but it keeps up well with traffic and will sit all day at 70mph and 2000rpm.

Living with it
Reliability
So far (3600miles) so good, which is a big improvement on my previous Disco Series 2 TD5!
Image
Great looking, attracts attention and amongst those in the know it is considered a great car.
Comfort
Slight hardness over potholes, but interior comforts are all their.

Security and Service
Security
Would have liked an interior alarm.
Service
Dealer in Chippenham was very good and prepared the car well. Too soon to say about service warranty work.
