Overall reliability

Brilliant to drive, economical, and has every possiblefeature although design doesn't stand out from the masses.

I have only ever seen 3 Vengas on the road in the six months since I bought this car and, for some unaccountable reason, it is rarely featured in Kia's advertising. Yet with satnav, reversing camera, heated front seats, full size spare wheel, Bluetooth, etc. etc, it is packed with features and, at 36mpg, it is actually more economical than our Hyundai i10. Firm on the road, it is fun to drive, especially with its high seating position like a 4 x 4. Drawbacks? Minor ones. I would have liked tinted rear and back windows and a lever rather than a turning wheel to recline the driver's seat. Also, its shape is indistinguishable from a million other cars so it isn't a car to turn heads as you drive by. But for value, comfort, driving experience and reliability (plus the 7 year warranty), I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
