2000 Kia Carnival GS review from Indonesia
"CRAP!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This MPV gave me constant problems. Starting from loud noise coming from its engine through all the interior and exterior components.
Brake system constantly gave me problems, starting from brake pads, leakage, disc brake, etc.
Power steering constantly gave me headaches, oil leakage were everywhere.
This car was really really crap as it made me poor by always brought it to the mechanics. It seemed that everything was crap.
The car was very sluggish although it consumes much more fuel.
Fuel consumption was very high compared to other MPVs, it only run for 4 km for 1 litre gasoline.
General comments?
The car is very unrecommended to buy. I bought the car in 2000 and sold it in 2005 with only 20% of its original price. What a wrong decision I made!!
