(At least compared to other manufacturers)
A really nice drive, not fast no, it’s only 105bhp, not crashy or noisy. Yes you will only see 37-39 mpg until you are just on motorways. Tax is £120, insurance is cheap.
Never had one single issue in the 3 years
Just traded it in for a top spec mg hs exclusive at 7 months old for £23,000.
I paid £5300 for mine in 2020 and got £3900 as trade in
Car snobs will insist you don’t buy them but they are very good.
Drove it as a courtesy car for a day.
I would not pay 20% of this price to have it. The handling is terrible, I was going to get sea sick driving at 60-70 miles per hour. The fuel consumption of the car showed average 38 miles per gallon, the car had done only 450 miles. The plastic interior is very cheap. The sound from the “infotainment” system… I haven’t heard anything worse than this!
You get what you pay for

Also, it's bigger in size compared to car in this price bracket. And they have 7 years warranty so not bad either.
I bought kia because I had good experience with hyundai before ... but this car is not bad as some people think or say.
Its the kind of car that looks really impressive on a first look, but you'll be finding flaws with it within a few days that you cant do anything about
Eg : the android auto regularly lags for a few seconds behind (had like 30 seconds of lag at points). The cruise control is placed perfectly where you constantly hit it with your knee as you use the clutch. The boot covers consistently came out of the hinge. Seat was okay for 20 min trips, but any longer and It hurt. Etc.
For a cheaper one I assume you have to get it built and wait. (edited)

Poor sub 40mpg for such a small and weak car, high road tax, horrible handling and feels really cheap
Dacia sandero for same money is a far superior car, this might be cheap chinese junk but the romanians can produce a better car for the same money (edited)
