On my previous searches I found severel CUVs (outlander, old montero,rav4 and prado) but bound by my budget and fuel/maintenence cost, only sporatge cought my atention (not looking for a chelsea tractor or in SL terms "sallikara mudalali" SUV). I will not subject it to harsh 4x4 but rough unpaved tracks. Imagine a trail leading thorugh a rubber/tea plantation. Sporatge is a AWD and has Differential lock. Yes I am aweare of the depreciation rate but it won't go higher than 1 - .5mil in 5 years would it?

Thanks, that search result brought up some informative threads. Too bad I used Autolanka search instead of this the first time. I've heard KIA has gotten better but I just wanted honest opinion facts from somebody who is neither trying to sell me a KIA nor sway me away from one.

Can anybody comment on the reliability of this vehicle. I am raising this question because of the stigma "KIA" brand caries("Apo Korean ne, ayi oya ganata japan ekakata noyanne?) among local car salesmen.

So... I have selected a proper CUV for my needs...? Any comment on price?

Hy everybody, I am interest in buying a secondhand Kia Sportage (2012 Diesel). Could you guys give me pros and cons of this vehicle. I will be using this vehicle for, Daily suburban commute. Family trips. (will do more than 300km in a single trip.) Occasional 4x4 in wildlife parks. Reaching remote destinations on unpaved trails. And how much is the going price for a one that has done below 15000km and maintained well under company warranty.

Can somebody describe this new tax change and how it compares to the old scheme in layman's terms? And how it will affect future car buyers.
