While I agree they have evolved abit to me they still look like cars for the elderly or loosers, which is the same as before. At least hyundi (sp?) have attempted a few sporty models to spruce up the range and appeal to a wider audience

The Cee'd is a nice looking car. The name is fucking shit and it actually infuriated me just typing it.

Not a fan of any kia's even if they were made by another manufacturer, they all look quite boring.

I'm not massively keen on the looks really, I think they look a bit boring.

And I'm with Eck on the name thing

I've always thought they're not bad because of the much cheaper prices, however as Ben said with their prices creeping up they're trying to compete with the big boys which I don't think they can unless they start building sport models. 7 years warranty is good though, they must be confident.

A lot better but still not well built I'm afraid - feel just as bad as MG's etc inside.

I get to poke around quite a few at the garage I work at in front of Tom

But, yes they must be pretty good for them to have enough confidence to offer 5 or 7 year warrantys in them.

Styling on the whole is still a bit marmite too!

Kia have really taken a hold over in USA. They will go the same way over here at a guess.
