Kia ProCeed (2008 - 2012) 1.6 CRDi 2 3d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Our previous car was an Alfa Romeo 147 2.0 twin-spark lusso, a great car to drive but absolutely useless towing a caravan. We bought the Kia ProC'eed when it was only 8 months old and had 22,000 miles on the clock because we liked the look of it, it had a 1.6 diesel engine with a 6 speed gearbox and it still had over 6 years warranty left on it. The first time we towed our caravan with the Kia we were amazed at how well it towed and how economical it was. Towing the caravan from Redditch to Glastonbury it did 32 mpg, whereas the best we ever got out of the Alfa was 30 mpg and that wasn't towing. Without the caravan on the back we regularly see 65 mpg on the Glastonbury run. Servicing, road tax and insurance are all cheap. The car is reliable, economical and a joy to drive, what more could you want.
How reliable do you find the car?
only 1 issue, 1 of the front coil-over suspension unit springs broke when the car was 5 years old. Fixed under warranty , no questions. Other than that 100% reliable.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
On motorway runs averages over 60 mpg. Tows a caravan beautifully, the 1.6 diesel engine has plenty of torque and on motorways rarely need to change down from 6th gear.About their car
