I absolutely rate this car 👌
Make sure you’re subscribed for Wednesday’s video it’s a good one and if you’re not following me on insta yet here’s the link:

Cant wait for the Wednesday video drop I wanna no about that bmw lol love ure content keep it coming
i do like these little kia's. would be good to see a 20-70 in the rs7 calv mate
I have one of these. 😁 had it nearly 6 months. Love it. Really good car that not many people know about.
@@andrewmcgill6659 i wonder what tuning options are available for this car, be good to see one with 250bhp
@@bigmatt2896 people have got 260bhp from just a decat, air filter and remap.
It’s great having content that is low budget and high (ish) budget, it’s makes your videos loads more interesting.
People that slag these cars off are the same guys that can't stand the fact that a Hyundia i30N runs rings around a golf GTI 🤗
Yeah and its broken after 4 laps on a track
@@rossallan6853 evidence of that statement?
I seen 1 at knockhill ,my local racetrack in Scotland. I'm a track day guy myself. And yeah the guy was not amused that it broke. Great car for the road not for pushing hard round a track. Hence GTI wins.
Although it may have been the driver at fault. 🤭
More then likely. Some ridiculous mod that the car doesnt want probably causing gremlins
I’m soo glad you did a video on this car! I had one of these for 3 years, and it was my second car with 1 year no claims bonus it cost me £1500 but for me this was amazing coming from a 1.6 Astra which cost me £3500 for my first year driving, but ye this car is the reason I love cars,driving and anything car related and will forever be the car I should of never sold. So underrated
Is that with a tracker? Im quoted 3.6k-7k depending on the details of the car without a tracker with 1yr no claims
Owned the very same car for 3 years, it’s called GT TECH ie heated seats/ heated steering wheel. Definitely recommend this car, never had any problems, cheap service cost. Well done to KIA.
You need to get a Kia stinger GT-s on channel another car that’s kinda not really looked at but offers great value for money 💰
Great to look at I saw the 3.3 litre model it was epic
It's a good looking car.
My neighbour has one and it's wicked mate
True this, work colleague has one, mapped stage 1 and it's ridiculously quick, like M3 quick, just nuts man haha
Don't like Kia stinger because it looses value so quick
Test drove one at 18 when they first came out, absolutely loved it and wanted one since! They're holding their value well too! Been around the 5-7k mark for the last 2/3 years!
Impressed it matched that tuned TT on your draggy test with quite a lower power to weight ratio. Kia horses obviously still very strong at 120k miles!
I bought an 09 Proceed Zr-7 with 118k miles. About 50k miles missing in the service history but shes at 160k miles now going strong and serviced every 10k. Hyundai/Kia Gamma engines are pretty solid and are everywhere.
I had a 2013 one of these for 6 years and 320,000km and I couldn't recommend it enough. Bulletproof on a 150km daily commute, fun to drive in the twisties and quick enough (especially after I remapped it).
I also firmly believe that it's the best looking hatchback of the last decade by a mile.
Good to hear. We had a Pro Ceed Gt from 2014 to 2018 and it was a cracking car. Never missed a beat, and turned heads all the time. I was really hoping Kia would progress and develop a hotter version but alas, they didn’t. So we reluctantly changed in 2018 to a I30N. You still see very few actual GT’s on the road. Absolutely loved my Pro Ceed GT. and loads of tech as standard (heated seats and steering wheel to name a couple). Great video.
thats exactly the car that popped into my head when i was looking at the pro ceed gt tonight - its like an i30n with a bit less power BUT they will remap upto 250bhp so id imagine once you do that they have a bit of poke... how did you find the handling with it?
my current car, i have a 2014 model, with a stage 1 tune, and a de resonated exhaust , cracking motor, admittedly it does feel a little sluggish at stock, but a tune completely transforms it. and the sound it makes just by cutting off the resonator is insane.
you still got it? how do you find the handling? in my head i have them as like the same sort of car as an i30n - mapped to 250bhp with all the gadgets etc i think its a decent buy!
Really glad I found your channel, your review gave me the confidence to go ahead and buy a Ceed GT, I absolutely love it
how is it holding up if i may ask? Are you still proud with that purchase?
@@RopeIsMyHope Brilliant car
The great thing about your channel is I think people would be more inclined to buy cars from you as you come across as a genuine, nice bloke. So it’s great advertising for your business! Good luck to you
Loving the high Milage performance cars bro, much more affordable for many of us. Cheers Calvin 🙌🏽
Ive got a 12 reg kia ceed 1.6diesel. Bought it as a daily...254k and has never let me down. Decent enough cars the kia now👍
Kia is a very good car i have the same but in a 10 plate
I have a 08 same engine kia ceed never let me down bro very good cars
mines a 12 jd also diesel 1.6 remapped to 170bhp would smoke this gt because diesel torque
254k fair play
Got myself a 2017 KIA Proceed GT in white. It is literally my child in a way. So comfortable to drive, responsive. Looking to change the look of it soon hopefully! 😁
So what you've got there is the pre facelift GT tech, that's why it's specced with the heated seats/steering wheel, touch screen and directional xenon headlights.
After the facelift in 2016 they dropped the base GT and every GT had the same tech.
The GT button itself doesn't have any effect on the drive it just changes the screen 👌
Hadn’t actually considered one of these before... got me thinking now 🤔
Lmao Calvin when you go off topic its funny asf, the puddle and the trees 😅😅
These are the decent little cars which other "snobs" would put down, nice one Calvin!
Same as my 208 gti which smoked countless S line A3s 😂
2.8 v6 turbo sigmum here. Over 100 in 3rd and pulls all the way to 170 in 6th
I've got s pro ceed sr7 having had VW's all my life, this car outperforms all VW's even my Scirocco! Had it 5 years and only had a bulb go on it, great car!!!
Editing on point as always Calv!👏🏻
I had a regular ford fiesta as my first car at 21 and actually bought a Kia Procee'd GT 2 years later (that I still drive). My insurance changed from around £700 for the fiesta to £1,000 on the Kia, nearly 5 years later my insurance on the same car is under £400 with 7 years no claims. I did have one accident that was not my fault so it could be lower still! I've really enjoyed my Kia but I'm ready to move on to something else when the car starts having a lot of issues.
Didn't think you would do a video on this car however I'm glad you did. I own one and can't fault it wanted a little bit of power but didn't want to go crazy and spend a fortune at the time. Only thing that bugs me is the front suspension seems like it's bouncing across the tarmac when you wheel spin off and sounds like it's gonna break the front end off lol 😆
I’m that person, 19 2 yrs no claims. £1000 for the year
That's cheap
Good price
How? I guess it depends on which area you live in, I'm 29 and got £1,737.93 😂
@@Unknown65151 true I got 12 years no claims I'm 41 it's about 600
@@amshgamer9499 Just did another quote with the correct details, 4 years driving and 4 years no claims still came back as £1,418.20 😂Man I live in a rough area haha
I love mine. Had it 8 months now, really good quick cars. Insurance for me at 21 is £502
You’ll probs find it’s got like the auto click in the pedal as that’s for the the speed limit function so if you set a limit say 30mph it would limit at 30mph until you push past that click, that’s what every speed limit function car I’ve ever driven has has anyway my theory behind it 😂😂
Awesome review and great editing/cuts. It would also be nice to see more of the road once in a while. Keep it up.
The amount of people who shudder away at 100000 miles is unreal. Think they are still living in the 80's. My current car 2014 just turned 180000 miles.
Used one at work for a couple of weeks, highly recommend one, if your thinking of buying a fiesta st or 208 Gti these are also a good contender.
I've bought an ST, sometimes I do miss the comfort of something like a KIA
CCD soundtrack would make a good playlist, some banging tunes on the cinematics 🎧🎧🎧🎧
Definitely love to see you get a Stinger now. Been on my radar for a while and on some days i love them and others im not sure - styling wise. Would love to see a video on one of those and see what you think and make my mind up for me. Loving the content, helping me stay sane in lockdown. Much love.
Seeing a lot of youngsters getting these motors now, shame insurance prices are ridiculous, completely unfair how insurance limits what car you get
One sweet spot I’ve found as a young car enthusiast is the Mini Cooper s and JCW 2014-present. I’m paying £750 a year at 19 with 2 years no claims for a 230hp hot hatch. Whereas GTI quotes at £2500 and s3 at £2700
Kia ceed good little cars, my old man has a 1.4 58 plate cee apostrophe d 😂 covered 95,000 miles and feels tight as a drum still. Never had anything other than service items and a coil spring. He bought it new and I use it as my safe get you there car occasionally for bigger journeys. Kias used to represent very good value for money but unfortunately with the more recognition they are getting in the motor industry their prices are equivalent to more mainstream manufacturers...
Bloody love your honest delivery. Brilliant ! I've been looking for a Corsa VXR 2015 onwards for ages (I drive a mapped turbo 1.4) and worry about all the issues,..piston 4 shittin itself, and dodgy gearbox etc etc. I never even thought of the Kia Cee'd GT till I stumbled across your video. I think I'll be looking seriously at getting one of these instead now. 👍🤞
Definitely do it have had one since 2016 and now it's running 330bhp
Interesting to see. I made the jump to Kia back in 2018 for family car duties - Optima Estate. Won’t set the world on fire but it’s the perfect tool for the job. Prior to that I had an XF SPORTBRAKE and it spent more time in the garage than on the road 🤣
Hyundai also impressed me after I drove the I30N- that’s an absolute riot.
P.s your fascination with the puddle was amazing 🤣🤣
it really is a good car for the money! still driving mine low mile since a older man drove it before me. and he didnt do kia service, so i got a good deal! no problem since!
good content cal m8,the older 63 plate kia GT pro ceed which your driving in this good video is a great car if you have a low budget nice looking and its very good value for the money
Great fun and informative dude. love your energy and genuine enthusiasm and knowledge.
subbed man
👏
BRAVO!
You already showed the mileage before when u showed it had no fuel lol !!!!! Life the content
Great content Calvin! Such a good video for anyone interested in one of these cars! 🔥😎👍🏻
The GT button doesn’t change anything but the Speedo, wish it did mate.
Its called the kickdown on auto,s Calvin , that last bit of spring resistance on the throttle . Good vid Cheers
What would you choose out of the Kia to a fn2 type r?
I've got a FN2 type r, Currently looking at these.
Bought one today, im amazed. Got ALOT of car for the money.
Loving these 20 to 70s Calvin. Keep em coming please. Cheers, Jon.
Love the review, definitely adding this to my short list! :)
I have a Kia Rio for a bit more than a year now, it's got 109 HP and I want to upgrade. With only 1 year no claim I can't even ensure it. Need to get two more years
I don’t think that mileage is high these days. Also a car that has been used is often better serviced and more reliable than a car with really low mileage.
I have this exact car, slightly modified, with a stage 1, like you said in the video, it's a good car for the money you pay, great bang for your buck!
Not bad a car.
One that got under the radar as well with me too calvin.
Insurance quote for the kia proceed gt for me.
50 years old.
20+ years no claims.
Protected bonus.
Garaged.
No motoring convictions
No medical conditions.
£250 volantary excess.
Cheapest quote £203.53 by hastings direct.
Halifax insurance not shown up in the comparethemarket.com list for the kia.
I have been with halifax insurance for 3 years now and have had continous cheap renewal quotes.
Just paid halifax car insurance £147 fully comp inc protective bonus for my rare 1999 astra 2.0 sri 16v.
Im happy.
Give them a go.
Great honest channel - loved the M3 vs AMG comparison & found it very helpful 👍🏻
I have a question...
If a person buys a CAT write off & insures/declares it as one & then has an accident at some point in the future & wishes to claim
Would the insurance company pay out for repairs?
Would they write it off (again) if damage was bad ?
Or would they just pay out the original scrap value?
Would the different CAT categories make a difference in this ?
What would happen if the car is stolen ?
I’ve never bought one myself as it all seems too complicated...
Maybe you could do a vlog on this one day as you don’t seem to be bothered about buying them
I reckon lots of people would like some honest enlightenment on this subject👍🏻
All the best Calvin & good luck with the business bruv
I recently got a sportage same engine 174 bhp and it proper shifts for a bigish car there has been talk of these having carbon deposits on intake valves but I think that's at very high mileage.
Nice one Calvin! Loving your channel man.
Keep up the hard work! #ONIT
I’m planning to get this car. Is this an ideal car for maybe 5-10 miles on the daily?
Brilliant cars 👏 best channel on RUclips mate keep the videos coming
Love mine and Kia have always fixed any issues within the warranty
im 18 currently drive 2019 kia rio, very underrated cars not the fastest but very fun to drive
Just got my proceed gt changed from my fiesta
The only negative i can say if the mpg but everything else is nice
popular car on the roads now Calvin might be faster than my unmapped golf gtd .. love the content
Loving the 20-70 mph dragy tests. All the 0-60mph tests on other channels make no sense. I don’t really care if your Ferraghini does 0-60 in 2 seconds if it takes you 20 minutes to find launch control (Mat Watson)🤣😂. 20-70 mph wall of fame please. Love the randomness of your channel, is randomness a real word, I’m sure it might be, or not..... sorry got off track there.......🤣😂😅👍👍👍
I’m a 3rd year driver now and looks at a bright yellow one of these and ended up with a Volvo V40 D3 R-design
Yes mate been waiting for this 👍
Amazing vid Calvin ! ♥️
Little late but I am looking at a 2014 model fully kitted and I think I am going to pick it up, great for 16k (norway pricing always high for cars)
I was pleasantly surprised when I drove a 1.6 turbo Astra H, lagged a little then shot off and took me by surprise.
Cal get a kia stinger. 👍
I've got the 2019 shooting brake... GR8 all-rounder 👍
Concentrate Calv 🤣 if you ever change your RUclips name it’s got to be side tracked Calvin 😂 my dads had one of these. Decent for a Kia great looking cars
Is there a way to put the new steering wheel in this model? Will everything work i you do?
Looks likes a smart little car that. Would never think of considering buying a Kia
Awesome content Calvin, theres something for everyone! Thank you 🙏🏻.The latest Proceed GT is a genuinely good looking car, like a CLA Shooting Brake, but half the price!! Its tempting........🤔😎😎
Have the proceed GT shooting break myself, dct and 200bhp is genuinely more than enough to put a smile on my face on a b road and also super practical to fit stuff in. Loads of kit as standard including heated steering wheel and seats and gets lots of comments from people as mine in the only one I have seen in my city.
Smart little car mate! Video editing on point
The ice tree by the layby was bigger than that the day before and made me stop as well.

I've had a 2013 GT for 4 years and done 60k miles in it. Now on 130k, it's been our family car and has been brilliant. I also have a Mk1 TT so the timing comparison is interesting, the TT 1.8T feels way quicker to drive, especially for overtaking. The Ceed/Proceed thing, i seem to remember that the Proceed is the 3 door hatch and the Ceed is 5 door 🤔
I test drove a few other cars before buying the GT, it was noticeably quicker and nicer to drive than a Fiesta ST of the same age and was a nicer to sit in than the 208GTi.
Would you say the TT felt like it had more power when it came to motorway speeds but the proceed gt felt more lively around town at slower speeds whereas the tt you felt like you couldn’t really use all its power around town unless you seriously broke the speed limit?
@@pjneale being honest, the TT would be quicker around town as well. Especially pulling out onto damp roundabouts quickly, the extra grip from the rear wheels being driven is quite significant. The GT can wheelspin under hard acceleration whereas with the TT you just nail the throttle under any conditions.
120k for a car that new isn't bad tbh, my veloster is on 100k and all I needed recently was a new clutch (and you expect to buy and new one around 100k)
Proper lovely mate!!
Before the proceed was its own model (the shooting brake one mentioned) the proceed was literally just the 3 door ceed, that’s it 😂
plus a completely different rear end
I nearly binned my Clio 182 the other week seeing the icicles from a puddle 😂😂😂
i done a quote on this as 2nd car at 21 with 1 year no clams and got 1200 for the year, really considering this as my 2nd car
It’s a Pro Ceed GT Tech (tech refers to the option pack of heated wheel and sat nav etc)
I got a quote just before this vid with 2 years no claims and as a student for £1000!!
I have recently just bought the new kia proceed gt shooting break, I'm 21 with 4years driving and 4years no claims and I payed £550 so not too bad.
Love it nice lil car Calvin
The last 3 cars I've bought have each had over 100k miles on them when I bought them. The first which I guess was the only interesting one was a 2005 3 year old M3 CS. I paid 14.5k for a 3 year old car which cost the guy before me 56K. No brainer if they've been looked after.
My bora got 217.000 miles on . My mates got a Kia gt and he got 180.000 miles on it still sound as a pound . They are good car . Get a stinger on channel. They are incredible.
I had a 16 plate kia ceed gt for a few years really good cars
2nd car, 0 claims £54 a month, one months time when i change it to my main car £36 a month, full no claims at 35 years old :)
Just found this video and I'm so glad I did was considering buying one of these and now I'm definitely getting one i dont care like it or not 8m going all-out for the shouty yellow one
bought one yesterday for my first car in white, its so nice
I use to have one of them myself, apparently loved it. Also I had a DTUK turning box on it approximately running at 245bhp
how did you find it once mapped? how did it handle? weighing one up..
@@s1dew1nd3r4 it was fine handle really well. I’ve still got the turning box if your interested in buying it off me?
@@martinbaker7097 potentially mate, need to have a proper look and drive/sit in one of these really first i do like the idea of them but i suppose you never truly know until you have a go.
@@s1dew1nd3r4did you ever get a chance to sit & drive one?
@@martinbaker7097did you ever have any clutch issues running it with the box? How long did you have it with the box power upgrade?
Random question but do you know how to reset the TPMS light on one of these cars ? Can’t find it anywhere
i've got one pro cee'd 1st editions , 150 000km , and run always great !
Like so many small cars, not really different-looking enough to be special. I’m guessing it’s the long warranty and add-on service package etc with a new one, which makes them an attractive buy. Second-hand though, bargain pocket rocket 👍
That a Beast of a car only having 200bhp man love the video's calv keep it up and keep #Onit bro my g
Nice car nice to see something different for a change
The front fog lights remind me of the MK8 Golf GTI ones!
You mean this Proceed GT reminds you of the MK8 GTI. The MK8 came after the Proceed/
A 1.6 and you thought it wasnt gonna impress you?
Id love to see your reaction in my 1.4 Cupra Ibiza DSG 😂 230whp 400nm torque, youd love it mate, get one on the channel 👌
Solid remap. What power we talking 300hp+
Didn’t think it was possible having had a look on its gains in other places.
Not that I would recommend one but Peugeot got 270bhp out of their 1.6 for the RCZ-R. Not the most reliable engine but shows that it is possible.
I think the 7 year warranty is absolutely fantastic, something German brands should be bloody doing
They can't and won't cos they build shit cars to make money
