    GO1,

    Pls. access this: http://www.kia-forums.com/41453-mtmkia.html. mtmkia, I think, is one of the biggies at Kia Quezon Ave. I have the impression, from how he responded to questions from customers and prospective customers of any Kia product, that he is a knowledgeable and highly approachable person. He is also actively involved with the Sorento Club of the Philippines. Send him also a pm when you access the site of kia-forums.

    Kia Sorento owners,

    What's market rate for Kia Sorento 2.5 CRDI Jan 2005 model? around 12000 kms. My only experience with KIA is the Pregio 1997 model. I wasn't really happy with it, but I heard that Kia and the Korean cars are much better now.

    I'm really looking for a Trooper 2002 but I'm considering a 2005 Diesel SOrento if the price is about the same. What do you guys think?

    Sir part time ba or full time 4wd yung Sorento mo. The part-time system should never be used on paved roads po kasi. Yung mga local po kasi puro part-time, baka may gumaya. hehehe.

    Otherwise you might encounter the binding phenomenon (nangyayari din ito when travelling straight on some vehicles): http://www.4x4abc.com/4WD101/def_turn.html



    Btw, Kia Quezon Avenue has a Tomato grilles and badges.

    there are tomato grills and badges at kia pasay also. that's where we got our unit and those items too.
    have not tried 4hi at 100kph since no need on paved roads but glad to know it handles well on the terrains you mentioned.

    i think the market price for that would still be in the 1.1M up range. bagong-bago pa yan. ours is a Nov2005 model with 12K kms on it already and i would not part with it for a price lower than that. but if the owner is in a hurry to sell, you might get a bargain.

    mas roomy ang trooper so if interior space is your preference, mas ok ang trooper.

    ganda handling ng sorento. walang garalgal ang ilalim sa mga lubak and rough roads. and with its powerful engine, parang hindi truck yung dala mo. magaan ang pakiramdam.

    I went to the Kia event last Sunday to test drive the new models. Am really quite surprised at how fun to drive the diesel Sorento was compared to my Fortuner! The Sorento maneuvered like a sports car while the Fortuner felt like a ten-wheeler truck. My only negative comment about the Kia is the rattling dashboard when we passed through some rough patches of asphalt, guess someone at the factory missed out on some spinach? The interior was "classier" than the Toyota, more substance and style. I'm very satisfied with the Sorento, and pray my dad will get one next month!

    All the bins and drawers of the Sorento have dampened motions. And all the cubby bins have felt lining (so your loose change doesn't rattle). The glovebox even has a strap so your manual won't flop around.

    gregg, wala akong masulat tungkol sa Sorento ko. Never had any problems with it for over 3 years now that I've owned it. I'm really very happy and very satisfied driving this SUV. I've tried driving my in-law's Fortuner and frankly speaking, I still prefer the feel of Sorento's suspension, steering and space since it's more wider than the Fortuner. Yong wife ko, nagiging car racer na din pag drive nya ang Sorento. I remember one time punta kami sa 9 waves resort night swimming, Sorento drive nya at civic sa akin. Dalawa dala naming car since 15 kami katao. Man, hirap ako humabol maski na 10 sakay nya. Yon nga lan pag madami na sasakyan, doon ko naman sya naiwan kasi mahina sya sa singitan eh....he he he
    BTW, na pa install ko na pala ang angel eyes sa Sorento ko. Ganda pag gabi. Mas maliwanag pa sa angel eye ng BMW. Saka latest bili ko para sa kanya, 30GB na apple IPOD
