Ssangyong Korando! Ugly? I don't think so! - Trilogy

I sat in one of these at a local show at Malvern. I have to say this is a good looking vehicle, decent value, designed by Italians. I think we're going to see a few of these about driven by people who might have bought a Freelander, but want to save some £££.

It looks better than the Hyundai iX35, but I do quite like it.

Looks like they took some tracing paper to a Ford Kuga.

It resembles a Kuga to me as well

Anywhere but specsavers! Horrible horrible opticians

Ah, yes, they both have 4 doors and a tailgate.

From side view I imagine they'd have a very similar shape/profile

They both have a grill above and below the bumper

The upper half of the back - look almost identical

Not too bad at all, but after reading the review not too sure about that engine, but warranty decent, still think i would prefer sportage/ix35. definitely wouldn't go for a freeelnader.... to scared of problems..

Warranty period might be ok but how many agents do they have throughout europe to do any work.
