Up for grab this gently driven family Kia Sedona being offered "AS IS", without warranty, expressed or implied, with the buyer being responsible for pickup or arrange for delivery.

The good:
LF tire brand new, RF tire has about 25% life left, rear tires both about 40%.
Engine has AMSOIL synthetic oil that should be good until odometer turns 200000. (AMSOIL is only changed at every 25000 miles)
Motor runs very smoothly, the inside of the van is clean, non-smoker used.
Fresh transmission flush.
Comes with 2 keys and one clicker (remote car opener)

The bad:
Armrests of the seats are not staying in position - at least not all of them.
Hatch (back) door handle needs to be pushed back into position to operate properly each time you open it (missing a spring?)
Needs new parking brake cable.
Obvious rust spots and dents several places on the body (see pics).
AC has slight leak, needs top off at beginning of each AC season.
Front and rear plastic bumper cover is cracked - fixed with white duct tape by previous owner - it never bothered me enough to buy new ones but they go for about 150.00 on ebay should you so desire. (You will only need the plastic cover not the whole bumper)
Transmission has a very slight jerk on long roads once in a while. My mechanic says it could mean that the transmission started to go bad, but he had to take the van for a test drive twice to even notice it. I have no way of telling how long the transmission will last, but right now it is a great daily driver. In city traffic no one can detect any problem with it. Speeds up and shifts nicely.

Test drive and a look trough is strongly encouraged. Send message through ebay to arrange one!

It would be a good daily driver, or could be parted out (and I still might do that if it does not sell), but I probably would not take it cross country.
I am willing to deliver the van to you in a 50 mile radius (from Fairfield,Iowa) for an additional 50 bucks.
Good luck with bidding!

Next Kia Sedona minivan spied

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

After skipping the 2013 model year and returning for 2014, the Kia Sedona is getting a full redesign for 2015, which we see for the first time in these new spy shots. The new Sedona isn't going to look as much like the 2011 KV7 Concept as we had hoped, but we definitely see some key styling cues from the Kia concept minivan.
Even though it's covered in heavy camouflage, we can see that some of the KV7's cues on the 2015 Sedona include the vertical front marker lights, the horizontal taillights and the pinched beltline starting at the C-pillar. Kia's trademark Tiger Nose grille is present and accounted for, as is the telltale dip in the windshield.
All in all, the next-gen Sedona already looks to be a significant improvement over the current, generally boring model, which dates back to 2006 and has a striking resemblance to the Ford Freestar. There is no word yet as to what will power the 2015 Sedona, but our spy shooter said that this prototype was most likely powered by a 2.2-liter diesel.

Is Kia working on a sporty convertible?

Mon, 03 Jun 2013

It's been a number of years since we last heard rumors about a drop-top Kia, but as the South Korean automaker continues to grow into new segments, why not stir things up again? Fan site Kia-world.net got its hands on what is claimed to be an exclusive drawing (click to enlarge) of the Kia Pro_cee'd GT Cabrio.
This rendering looks exactly like what we'd picture a topless version of the three-door hatchback to look like, but until there's any official information, we'll keep this filed under "we'll believe it when we see it." The idea of a Kia convertible sounds good to us, especially if it looks like this, but we're still waiting for the sporty model that lead designer Peter Schreyer said could happen "sooner or later" back in 2010.

What a strike in Korea could mean for US Hyundai and Kia buyers

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

A prolonged factory strike at Hyundai-Kia factories in South Korea could mean that US dealership inventory of certain vehicles, such as the South Korea-built Hyundai Accent and Kia Soul, could dry up in the coming months, depending on the length of the strike, reports Cars.com's blog, Kicking Tires. The two brands together rank sixth in US sales and fifth in global sales.
Kicking Tires gives fascinating insight into how a production stoppage in South Korea might affect vehicle sales in the US, considering Hyundai-Kia has two factories in the US that build the Kia Sorento and Optima/Optima Hybrid, and the Hyundai Elantra sedan/coupe/GT, Sonata/Sonata Hybrid and Santa Fe/Santa Fe Sport. The only one of these vehicles that's built solely in the US is the Kia Sorento, with the rest of them sharing production with South Korea.
Be sure to read the piece, especially if you're in the market for a Hyundai or Kia, or just interested in global economics.
