Someone tell me why I shouldn’t buy the KIA Seltos. And why it’s crazy that I’m thinking Korean (KIA) > German (VW).
rhouses Someone tell me why I shouldn’t buy the KIA Seltos.
The axles are quite flimsy
rhouses because it’s a piece of shit SUV / 4×4 / twat panzer, the kind of thing only driven by people with tiny, tiny, tiny genitalia.
rhouses depends if you value gimmicks and an extended warranty over performance and design. They may be practical but Kia cars just look so damn ugly
rhouses Kia’s are good cars these days. We’ve got an q4 etron at the moment. Decent enough build quality but the sat nav etc is bab. With the exception of Porsche, VW group are crap at writing software.
I’ve got a Touran which I love but if I didn’t have that I’d go for a Kia any day of the week. Many friends with family swear by them and they really upped their game over the past 10 years.
NasserAlazzawi I know a few people who’ve bought a KIA in the last few years and speak very highly of them as well.
What’s wrong with a TATA Nano 😀 😀 😀
Dubman lol. Or I could go with the Tata Jaguar. 😛
The thing is with Kia, as shit as they are, you get 7 years warranty. Rhouses last clown mobile that he posted still makes me laugh. Proper birds/old dears car. 🤣
Edit - Sure enough the Seltos is a birds car. Man the fuck up Rhouse.
I ordered a new EV in April. Just an MG EV 5, via a workplace salary sacrifice thing. It’s been delayed 3 times now and the latest estimate is late Jan 2023. I’ve decided that if it gets delayed again come January , then I’ll cancel the order. So I may be looking for an alternative, interesting to hear the good reviews about Kia
gcw problem is industry wide pal, we where waiting a year for our Audi. Silicon shortage.
There’s a young lad who lives near me who has one. Looks quite young, probably his first car. Must have been taking some stick from his mates as he’s debadged it.
My Mrs has just bought a mitsubishi asx with 10 year warranty. 14 months she had to wait. Seems nice enough, bit small and a bit plasticy for me like all mitsubishi but again, with 10 years warranty you can just throw the cunt away at the end and it’s still cheap motoring.
Don’t think the Seltos looks that bad really. What about the MG HS Rhouses?

It doesn’t look bad but it’s still a birds car. Mg’s are notoriously badly built. My mate is a mechanic and he’s said they are the worst cars he’s ever worked on. Like all the shite churned out in China it’s a massive swerve.
Cankles-McJeggings Quite liked the look of the Haval as well. Another Chinese job.
mono-stereo Kia’s are good cars these days
Kia head hunted the chief designer from Audi a couple of years ago, that is why they all look premium . Alistair, unsurprisingly is talking through his hole when he says they are ugly.

@gcw
Cancellations are your friend.
Picked up my new motor by looking for dealer cancellations.
Not sure how that would work with a salary sacrifice thingummy though
Ford , Hyundai, Kia and Mitsubishi are all over a year here. Or was.
Had a Chevrolet Captiva for a short while. Tank and all the warning lights kept coming on lol.
Jeep are the same. Absolute pipe.
Cankles-McJeggings interesting. Kia’s branding is good as well.
Good that we have the likes of them and Tesla if nothing else then to push ze Germans to up their own game a bit.
Cankles-McJeggings they’re really popular in Australia, but then again so is racism. Calling a black male a “chimpanzee”. I mean how the fuck did that go unchallenged on here!

The mechanic I’m on about just bought a fancy ford thing 4 wheel drive Ute kind of thing full spec. He waited 16 months and now he’s got it he says they’ve already updated it for a far better model/spec and his is top of the range.

Interested to see why you down voted this hursty, are you a Jeep owner? Jeeps are renowned for having all kinds of ridiculous and often major electric faults. They are all well known to leak which inturn causes electrical faults. I know someone who bought his wife one as a present , it was an absolute disaster. I think Jeep actually took it back and gave her a refund. From memory there was things like the windscreen wipers coming on when indicating and it was full of water every time it rained. They had it in countless times then just gave up themselves. I also know someone who owns a car rental company and they had a few wranglers and they were all exactly the same. He ran them for a year and gave them up because they were always in the garage getting fixed. The parts here are also a nightmare to get an often have to come from America after being ordered sometimes taking months.
Yeah it’s nuts. Waiting times for CDJ 3000s now into next year.
