Bit of #sun today, though remained windy and cool ( -3C ). Took the opportunity to change the forward lower control arms in the Kia, as one had a toasted ball joint.

Drives noticeably better now, though there is still a mystery noise to sort. Maybe a window bushing? I dunno.

'And people STILLLL buy them': Car expert reveals the real reason Kias end up at the junkyard. It's not what you expect

What is the Real Reason Kia Cars End Up at the Junkyard?

In a viral video, an auto parts seller showed why Kia cars end up in junkyards versus fan-favorites Hondas and Toyotas.

^{Jack Alban (The Daily Dot)}

I was offered a different car, but this was not of the same spec that I wanted, and was not like-for-like. I found another car at a different Kia dealership and asked the sales clerk if there was any way that this could be an option. I was told no. He said he’d look into other options for me.

I contacted the other dealer, explaining to them how I was treated by Reading Kia - and they got me a deal on the car that I saw on their website. I emailed the sales clerk last Wednesday to request my refund of the £500 deposit (for the car that I never got, despite signing the papers) and that I wouldn’t be moving forward with Waylands. I am still waiting for my refund. It has been a terrible experience at this dealership - not even one hint of any compensation or a discount on a different car. Now that I have a Kia, I will not be bringing it anywhere near Waylands for any kind of service or maintenance.

Give me my refund back.

#Kia #Hyundai in Canada could do big numbers if they craft lease packages to value EVs long term.

Leases in Canada are designed for cars that lose half their value on day one.

EVs last five times as long. Gas cars fall apart, are bust apart, wear down from explosions.

ASDUME YOU CAN LEASE AN EV many times.
