Kia Wins Against German Rivals

I’m not going to labour this point but whilst thumbing through a recent copy of Auto Express I saw the comparison reviews between the VW Tiguan and the Kia Sportage, their versions of small 4WD cars similar to the Rav 4 and Honda CRV. The Kia won hands down and yet whenever I’ve offered Kia’s to potential customers as a great alternative to some of the better known names people generally turn their nose up. According to Auto Express the build quality was more than adequate but the look of the Kia, both inside and out, was a major difference along with the standard equipment for much less.

I think it may be time for people to widen their choice beyond the German cars, most of which are built in 3^rd world countries less known for their car production than the poverty of their inhabitants. Off the soap box now! By Graham Hill
