Overall:
FORGET THE BADGE this is the one for a Diesel sports car looks at an excellent price and economy, pity Hyundai, sister company, didn't do the same in the Coupe, put their diesel engine in it.

Plus Points:
WHITE is the colour no other colour works for the WOW factor. Have had this car since April, very pleased with it, good value for money, good package, all the toys and drop dead looks, sleek low sporty firm ride, great to drive, even VW Scirroco owners give it a glance. Build quality good. added reversing sensors a must since hard to judge when reversing. Bumper to Bumper 7 yr warranty hard to pass by, especially when selling on after 3 yrs leaves the new buyer with 4yrs left, but rememeber service by KIA ONLY so as there are no comebacks, you will pay a few pounds more BUT well worth it when warranty issues arise. nice touches one finds out in time, ie child safety windows, put the window up stick your arm out and when it touches your arm it automaticlly goes down. Automatic central locking when you drive off, climate control, cruise control, blue tooth the list goes on and on.

Minus Points:
Have had a few niggles have had to have the Bluetooth and Stereo replaced, looks to be a common problem as the dealer had to search through a few sets to find my replacement. EXHAUST either side would have totally completed the looks department.
