Kia Rio 1 basic motoring

We recently part-ex our two company Hyundai Getz 1.1 CDX for two six-month old Kia Rio 1 1.4s. While this car is basic and is designed for the emerging world, we have found it to be ideal as there is very little to go wrong (no central locking for example).

You are right. That generation of Rio was quite a good car. At the end of its run now, though.
