If you need a car that can carry seven people, tow a caravan, climb a hill, and still look respectable parked outside a golf club, you’ve just found it. The Kia Sorento. This is the 2.2 CRDi KX-3, which means it’s the proper version. Big diesel engine, all-wheel drive, heaps of torque, and a spec list that makes most German rivals look stingy. Leather seats, heated everything, gadgets everywhere – it’s basically a living room on wheels. And here’s the thing – it’s Euro 6, so despite being a big diesel, it still sails through ULEZ zones without costing you your sanity or your wallet. On the motorway it’ll return mid-40s mpg, which for a seven-seater SUV that weighs as much as a small house, is nothing short of witchcraft. This one has been properly looked after. Service stamps at 15,128, 44,537, 59,191, 67,439, 78,239, 86,845, and 95,769 miles. Oh, and the big one everyone worries about – the dual mass flywheel – that was replaced at 80,374. Which means you don’t have to. So what you’ve got here is a family bus with enough space for kids, dogs, shopping, camping gear and still a bit left over, that’s been cared for, sorted, and ready to drive away. If you want a sensible, reliable, practical SUV that can do it all without breaking the bank, the Sorento is it.
