Kia Magentis Review


The Magentis is Kia's flagship saloon and since its introduction around 175,000 have been sold worldwide. It was voted 'Best Family Car' at the annual AA/Association of Scottish Motoring Writers (ASMW) Scottish Car of the Year 2001.

We tested the 2.0 litre ICE special edition which comes with ABS, all round electric windows, dual air bags and air conditioning. At only £9,995 the Magentis ICE is excellent value for money within the competitive saloon market.
