    You're doing a great review in your own versatile way, mainly focusing on in-depth details, as you mentioned about the steering response in the twisted corner, which is precisely what I felt when I was test driving this car. Keep it up, mate!

    @@coolmanu55 Hi mate, mine arrives in a couple of days. It's not the fuel type you should be too concerned about, it's the transmission type. Go diesel, majority of reviews seem to be disappointed with the petrol version with it's DCT (dual-clutch transmission) due to it's clunkiness and prefer the diesel which is semi-auto. Additionally, an ex-mechanic mate of mine advised if given a choice between cars, stay away from cars with DCT for road use if it can be helped.

    I've ordered a GT-line. You didn't mention towing capacity. 1900/1650kg Diesel/petrol is good but terrible towball download maximum 100kg. To achieve the desirable 10% download (for safety) you should only tow 950kg. Not good enough Kia. 150kg towball weight should be offered.
