Thumbs up

Good on you vankia08!

Just in case; you should make sure that the dealer did all the dealer's preps. Make sure they got all the tape marks off, the fluids are all topped up and gassed up. And go over the car with a fine tooth comb....

There is a check list the dealer goes though get it and make the dealer go though each point step by step. I toke the morning off work to go though the delivery.

Good Luck and have fun with you new car.....

KC

PS Who was that dealer again???
BAY CITY KIA

Despite the unhappy buying exprience from the dealer, I love the Rondo. It's the best car I've ever in so far. It feels so smooth to drive and so comfortable to sit. It is not too big, not too small, not too heavy, not too light, not too cheap and not too expensive for me. And all the Rondo owners I've met online or offline are all nice people, that's important ! I'm loving it


So buying you guys a beer if you come to BC

By the way, you could have got 0% up to 72 months. You did not have to go all the way back to 60 months.

Narvo I did question the sales about the 0% up to 72 months when I saw a BIGsign in their store saying 0% up to 72 months on all 2008 models. The sales then told me the 0% for 72 months is only avaible on selected models. For 2008 Rondo, they only offer 0% financing up to 48 months. All in all, the Kia Canada's ads are so misleading this time.

Congratulations on getting some degree of satisfaction. I do know that Bat City are charging $500 for tint which is, I agree excessive. There's a guy within 8 km who'll do it for $280.

And, as far as that beer is concerned, I guess I'm the only one close enough to collect on that one! I live in Coquitlam.

But as the others have said, don't let your purchasing experience spoil your enjoyment of, in my opinion, a pretty good vehicle.

Thank you for all the support! The deal has set, so next is to enjoy the wonderful car. You are in Coquitlam? That's very close to me. We can have a little Rondo party someday, of course beers are on me
