This video makes me miss my 2006 kia(Naza) Citra... Its such a perfect car, despite people saying its unreliable and hard to maintain, that car was like a tank. Had so many accidents with that car but it still runs like nothing ever happened to it. I really built an emotional connection with that car, sadly my family had to sold it because we were getting a new car😢.. still miss that tank to this day😢❤

I had a Kia Magentis (Optima) for 7 years until recently. 2.0 crdi with a 6 speed manual. 3 years ago I looked for an off roader and encountered the ONLY manual Sorento in Israel (it was imported here as private car of an employee of one of the embassys). I didn't bought it because the neighbour of the owner was quicker than me. Eventually we bought a 08 Grand Vitara, and lately the Magentis got replaced by another unique car here, that was belong to another foreign employee. I still regret not buying that unique Sorento. You can watch some videos on my channel about my collection anyhow.

Well done Comrade. Still looks a solid car for 20 years old, and fully loaded too. Engine maybe a little agricultural but cant be too bad with 236,000+ km's on the clock. These are still for sale in the UK for around a €1000. KIA must compare with DACIA for good value. 😎 👍💯🇬🇧
У меня точно такая же машина даже цвет точно такой же. Глядя на нее я вам могу сказать что она довольно в не плохом состоянии! Отличный и очень крепкий автомобиль! Я на своем таком объехал половину России 😄
In the US these had the 3.5L V6 and were somewhat unreliable vehicles, you don't really see them anymore for this reason. The V6 was prone to spinning bottom end bearings and they also suffered various little issues, crazy to see something this "new" already rotting in a barn
In Germany most customers chose the Diesel engines. I also heard from a collegue at work that he had a V6 and a lot of issues with it. I have a 2017 2.2 CRDI 16V PLATINUM EDITION. But that is a totally different car and you can't compare it with that in the video. The biggest problem with the first generation of the Sorento is the rust. I'm currently with my caravan on a campingsite in North Germany at the costal aerea. A neighbour has a 2018 Sorento GT-line, but he told me, that he is still owning a Sorento of the first generation. He is a company owner and has to tow sometimes heavy trailers. The towing capacity was about 3.5t and the following generations had only 2.5t (manual gear) or 2.0t (automatic gear) like his one or my one.
@@Flexiny oooh okay that makes sense, i just love that it just goes to show that you can save almost any car if you know what you are doing, seeing a car going for scrap would be heart shredding for me.

Hi, Flexiny. What are your plans with the car? It is in very great shape. It has a V6 diesel engine in it. And for the mileage it has; 146,908 miles (236,426 kilometers), it looks like new.
Sorento was purchased in 2004 and was scrapped after 19 years of driving. In Korea, due to exhaust gas regulations, this old Sorento can no longer be driven.

Σήμερα ρατοφειλο
한국에선 2002~2008 생산된 1세대 2.5l crdi 쏘렌토 입니다 아마 전기형인듯 합니다.
Estonia has run out of old cars. Bro fixed everything
🤣
A new set of tires, brakes, and fluid changes in everything and that car will be mint and ready to see the road again!
I just picked one up that sat for 3 years. 3.8 V6 2WD. Added fresh gas, alll new fluids and a good wash. Runs great. Very smooth.
Здравствуйте. Этот машина просто супер. Не смотря стояла 3 года, до сих пор работают как надо. Спасибо за труд ❤

한국에서도 이제 보기 힘든 차량인데..외국에서 잘 달려주니 멋지고 기특하네요.
저렇게 늠름하게 자리를 지키고 있는거 보니까 낭만있네요 😂
저 04년에 출고한 구형 쏘랭이 지금도 잘 타고 다님요.ㅋㅋ
아직 현역 많아요..부속도 나름 구하기 쉽고 고질병이 브레이크 + 오무기어..
부친께서 04년식 2.5LX 10년가까이 소유했었어요.
차 정말 튼튼하고 좋은데 급출발때 아이신미션 1~2단 튕김현상이 있었어요
That's a really cool Kia! Especially with the bumper guard and driving lights! Still really nice! Good job getting it running again! 👍
I had its sister, the Hyundai Santa Fe which however had a 2.2 CRDi engine with 150 horsepower. I have good memories of that car

I neighbour still has his Sorento that he has bought new in 2003. Looks like it is just three years old, held up really well for a cheap korean car!
Remind me to get a 1st gen. You still can't beat the quality.

Even though I don't like SUVs and regular diesels, it's still a healthy machine that would give a lot of benefits to the next owner.
I love it when you test everything :D And then everything Works
Kia Sorento, It's very nice South Korea's SUV!

A little cleaned up and ready to sell. 👍

Now it's rare in Korea
Why was it abandoned in the first place? It drives so well
انها سيارة جيده جدا احسن من الشكل الحديث بالف مرة
Ну прям совсем свежие машины начали оживлять. Весь утиль уже в строю. Теперь осталось по отдаленным районам страны собирать машины.

Great video flexiny, great work, another car running 👌,and on the road 👌👍😀
사랑하는 아버지 차였던 쏘렌토
50만km를 타도 엔진 미션이 버텨주고 잘나갔던 차였습니다. 다만 하체 부식 및 매연은 고질병이었죠
한국은 배기가스 규제가 있다보니 DPF가 없는 구형 쏘렌도라 결국 폐차했지요
Another day. Another flexiny video!
That looks in great condition, hopefully underneath is good too! Sounds like it will make a great towing car again 👍
16:18 surprise 😁
i've always wondered how do you guys find them cars.
It is different with every car. Sometimes we find it for sale, sometimes somebody offers, and sometimes we help somebody get their car running again.
@@Flexiny oooh okay that makes sense, i just love that it just goes to show that you can save almost any car if you know what you are doing, seeing a car going for scrap would be heart shredding for me.
@@Flexinywas this Kia from USA? Because the gauges are in miles / km
Парни, да это просто новая машина. То что она простояла 3 года в гараже, ее не испортила ни разу.

What a nice car. Would be a perfect tow car for your channel. It should also have enough torque😊.

Be careful with the fuel lines. Remember kia/hyundai cases that caused fire due to bad quality fuel system parts.
Only in the USA
Koreans cars are amazing🇰🇷💪
yes, because it's a copy of Mercedes, this one here.
그 차는 믿고 타도 됩니다.
Parece que a Sorento ganhou um novo lar...
3:55 It´s funny how the engine cover mimics a V6 while there is nothing more than an ordinary four-cylinder underneath it.
Dead giveaway: the engine cover says 16V and you can't divide 16 by 6 and get an even number...
에스토니아 인가요?
Отличная машина!😊
Abandoning these types of cars is a crime... In some countries, these types of SUVs are worth more than $18,000 😪
Hi, Flexiny. What are your plans with the car?
It is in very great shape. It has a V6 diesel engine in it.
And for the mileage it has; 146,908 miles (236,426 kilometers), it looks like new.
Inline 4 diesel not v6
It cleaned up really good, is it something you guys gonna sell or use ? 😄
Thanks, but its not our deal. We helped owner to get it running again and now it is in workshop
Почему не показываете ремонт колес?мне очень интересно, особенно если сохраняете родные шины...

Owner of it sent it to workshop now and it will be back on road.

Thanks! Owner is not selling it
this car is basically done just a little dust and thats it
