2000 Kia Carnival review from Australia and New Zealand

What hasn't??

Currently on its 3rd engine.

2nd gearbox and needs a new one as we speek.

Fuel pump failure.

Warped brake disks replaced numerous times.

Exhaust system broke off from the engine.

Seats are worn seriously.

Engine mounts broken.

Gear selector snapped.

Hand brake cable snapped.

Only 56000Kms old.

Worst car ever made. I should have stuck with a japanese brand like Toyota, Honda or Nissan, but the cheap price swayed me.

Has trouble going down the freeway at 110Kph, and once a hill comes up, you need to pull it back to second gear and crawl up it. Even semi trailers go past me.

Handles so bad it's not funny. Worst body roll of any car ever.

Zero to 100 in about the time it takes to put it on the back of a tow truck and then let the truck move it.

It has left me stranded around 15 times, and about $3500 in towing fees alone.

In the time I have owned this pile, my other car (a Nissan Maxima 1998) has had not one problem at all with it.

Shows that Japanese know how to build cars and the Koreans don't.

Only a fool would buy this car.

Next year I'm buying a second hand Honda Odyssey. and I know from experience that it will perform faultlesly. I should have gotten it in the first place. (Kicking myself now)
