Hi all -
Ordinarily I wouldn't look at either Hyundai or KIA cars.
BUT....
KIA has frecently come out with an unusual car - a sort of "mini-mini-van" that challenges the Mazda5.
I'd actually been very interested in the Mazda5 but soooooo many of its details are waaaaay off for me.
The KIA Rondo, on the other hand suits me PERFECTLY - overall size, interior room, performance, safety features etc.
But KIA's quality history leaves me apprehensive. The showroom salesman says things have improved greatly in the past year or two; auto journalists LOVE the car - but they only get the car for a week or so.
So, does anyone here have a KIA product? If so, how would you describe reliability, longevity of parts (brakes etc), fuel consumption etc.
Thank you.
Howard
