KIA Clarus 00 - junk or worth it?

[elwis]

Hello all!
I've been a happy Picanto owner for three years now, and since I'm very pleased with KIA and the service as well I'm of course looking their way when it comes to cars.

The thing is, I need a somewhat bigger car since I bought myself a place in the countryside. The picanto is not very good when you need to take stuff to the recycling station or step by the local hardware store to get material for a new garage..

I don't want to buy a brand new car for this purpose (nor do I have the economy, a new garage is expensive but I found some used cars, and one of them were the Kia clarus at what seem to be a reasonable price. It's big enough, but since it is 8 years old, I don't know about the quality back then, if it were as good as it is with the newer ones?

Any hints or advice is very welcome!!
Cheers from Sweden

Hi there, I guess it is too late , but let me give you a "worth"!
We have a Clarus 00 since March this year and we are very satisfied till now.
May be we had luck with a second hand car, but it didn't need much repair, just couple of usual things.
My husband says that More he drives that car, the more he gets addicted to it
Anyway, our next will be Picanto because I need a small one...
Good luck!
