The Mrs is buying a Kia

[barryogen]

yep... she's gone all Korean on me.

However, she works at a Kia dealership, so got a damn good deal, and being the finance manager, got a pretty good rate :lol:

And for an 1100cc hatch(Kia Picanto), it's actually pretty good(as long as the AC is off).

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


You need to supercharge that now

or even better use the Kia engine as a superchager for a real motor

Parents just brought a hyundai Excel sprint over here

100hp of brutal Korean acceleration.

[barryogen]

yeah, the manual says 57kw, so thats like 80HP ish... I bet thats at the engine.

Quite a cool little car really, I was surprised to hit 140km/h 8O
(on a closed road of course)

I mean it was revving the snot out of the wee thing, but I can see why they race them overseas.
