2005 Kia Magentis LE review from UK and Ireland
"Nice to look at not good petrol wise"
General comments?
Purchased car especially to tow a caravan. Find that it does not know what gear it wants to be in. Very slow to get to optimum revs. Towing a caravan is not possible as it will only do 9.9 miles to a gallon. Driving in town gives about 20 on a good day. Please has anyone any more information on the cars performance when towing.
