Man I love this car. Hoping to get one used in about three years time with some decent warranty left on it. Great review too! I was just surprised by the somewhat abrupt ending. 😌
Hello Like the video, just would like to say, I have a 12 year old Cee'd , still going strong not failed an MOT yet !, , since I have had it and that's over 10 years ,great choice .
That’s very kind of you mate! 😊Unfortunately at the moment my insurance doesn’t cover me to drive other people’s cars so I can only do stuff from manufacturers or dealers currently 😞
I've just popped over from your moto channel. I've had a BMW 335d (E92) for years and years, she's been a wonderful car, but the time is coming for her to go. I've been living in France for a while now, so I've been looking at 3 - 5 year old cars on the French used market...but there's a problem here! For some years now, the French have had a ridiculous government policy, whereby you pay a one-off tax when you buy a brand new car off the showroom floor, that tax is based on power output (and engine type, plus some other minor factors). You'd think that emissions would be the primary taxation factor. As a result, cars are expensive here, powerful cars are eye-wateringly expensive and used prices are inflated, as a result of first owners trying to recuperate some of those tax losses. A 3 - 5 year old 335d (Touring) is unattainable for me, I'm not spending 60,000€ on a three year old car. So, I revisited what I like in a car, small/medium in size, hatchback or estate for my current practical needs...and plenty of power. I've always liked the Ceed N, so I took a look, it turns out that Kia only brought it to France for a couple of years, then they stopped, because nobody wanted to pay 6,000€ in tax for a Kia. Long story, still very long, it looks like the best compromise of setting my wallet on fire, having the right car body shape and power is a 4 year old Volvo V60 T8. I know this comment is a load of waffle, but my rant shows a bit of engagement on your new channel which will be good for the algorithm. You're welcome🤣 Great review by the way, keep at it and I think you'll get some good viewing numbers👍
I had a 2006 Kia Sedona. Worst vehicle I ever owned bar none. Transmission self destructed just out of warranty and cost me $2k+. Leaked oil from everywhere an engine could leak and I ended up dumping it for $800. That being said, it does appear that Kia have upped their game lately. And their prices.
Just been in my mates Kia Stinger. Wow what a car - pity they don’t make them anymore.

Great review, looks a nice car and heated steering wheel and seats are great in the Winter for sure 👍🏼
Totally agree!
Great to see you do cars as well ! I love your presentation style already, so you can review a lot of things !
Thank you very much, hoping to do lots more car content 😁
Great video thank you 😊
The Stinger is the only Korean car that excites me.
Brilliant video again mate , channels definitely gonna blow up if you keep videos like these coming 👍
Thank you buddy!
It's just a Gt package for the interior and exterior i suppose because there is also a Ceed Gt with 204hp.
Darcy if you ever want to do a review on an E85 BMW Z4 2.5L then yr more than welcome to have mine for a few days....stunning cars 😊

Wow I never knew it was that complicated in France, that sounds ridiculous! And I very much appreciate your help with my algorithm 😁

Yes I think over the last few years Kia have massively upped their game
Hi, looking forward to the new channel. Will you be doing some classic content and is the Ol 'Man going to join you?
It’ll mainly be me but he certainly may feature on the channel! Would love to do classics at some point!
You need to add negative points as well otherwise it's a commercial not a review.
I only add negative points if there are any 👍🏼
@@Darcysdrive I bought the 1 liter turbo Kia Ceed 2023. Super happy with the car! :)
Eyebrook ?👀
Sure is!
