2001 Kia Rio LS review from Costa Rica
"A good business"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Distortion in the speaker's sound in the driver's door.
Problem with the injection system.
General comments?
In general terms, I am very satisfied with the car.
The problem with the injectors was not important since it was solved quickly and it was caused by a bad cleaning of the motor.
It is a very comfortable car, with good suspension, speedy and strong when it is required.
It is very economic, either in city or in open land.
The car has a very modern line that gets the attention, sport without falling in ends.
