Am certain you brother is happy with his choice.

I have no business under the hood of a bought "brand-new" vehicle, be it kia rio or innoson sedan unless wen its due for servicing in accordance with the owner's manual.

Eyop:
brand new vehicles are sweet but it depends on which of them compared to a Used vehicle.

Eyop:

My brother was happy when he initially got her but after that mechanical issue,kia or any other korean brand doesn't wow him again. Don't get me wrong chillex8,brand new vehicles are sweet but it depends on which of them compared to a Used vehicle.

#Team 1999certified used lexus over a 2014 brand new piece of junk engineering with only 2 Airbags.

The 2014 Kia Rio has 2 airbags?? That must be the upgraded SE spec. The Poverty spec model comes with 0 airbags.

#team 2014 kia rio over 2003 lexus rx300 whose parts are worn off.

Brand new kia rio is sweeter than lexus rx300 2003..

Its unacceptable to compare NEW to USED... They don't mean the same thing..

How about the brand new Kia VR7 that lost 1st gear after a few days of ownership? And Kia are doing their best not to honour a warranty claim, telling the owner to "cover a 1,000 miles" before they would consider rectification?

Poor brand, poor post-production quality control, poor warranty, abysmal customer service.

Bross e don do allow others comment.

How many airbags have you ever used? No lie o! If yes And when they poped were you happy or sad.

I know what airbags are meant for, but I'm guessing OP lives in lagos, crawls to work at an average speed of 30-40km/h and back if his airbags ever did pop it would be caused by a fender bender and he would be a sad man that day.

Guy you for tell us nah!!! lomomike,siena. Eyop........... I'm now with u, this man needs good ground clearance he practically swims to work.

Sorry OP you need an SUV don't even try the kia cause the bumper will fall off in the first week. Please consider the RX330 and forget the 300.


Doroboss.

lomomike:


If na river him wan cross, make him better take highlander or RX300. RX330 is lower in ride height and is over stuffed with sensors, electronics, and ECUs down to their tyres.

Eyop:


Lomomike you better re confirm from the OP again to ascertain the type of river. Whether na Lagoon to better recommend a pick-up .

Whether its a brand new kia picanto over a used BMW..

Nothing beats a BRAND NEW car..

Those that are have bought a brand new car will understand why I say so..


Check all the threads on car talk about car issues

Most of them were not bought brand new..

All cars are liabilities...
Once a car leaves the showroom, it depreciates in value.

Why would one consider a used car over a brand new one if he can afford one with four year warranty

Haba, make we no lie for here..

@ Op, go for the kia rio if you can afford it, and forget about car issues in the next 4 years or even more...
