I don't know if anyone has one yet, but the price is well up on it's predesessor.

The Taxi Center is not best pleased, but implied that the price will go down in a years time. In other words don't buy one now for £12/13,000, wait till next year.

Or at the moment you can buy a Superb cheaper. That makes sense doesn't it. :sad:

There seems to be a bigger gap between the petrols and diesels - the petrols are still reasonably priced.

But you're getting more car for your money.

I think current Skoda drivers should consider the Hyundi equivalent.

I really like the idea of a 5-year warrenty. :D :D :D :D :D :D

Don't buy one of these Kia things, a mate of mine has had umpteen problems with his. Latest fault was the gear stick came off in his hand, I think the warranty covered it, but he was off work over a week, and the warranty don't pay the finance company do they?
