2002 Kia Sportage Base Sport Utility 4-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is my 02 Kia Sportage with selectable 4WD. I've loved and cared for this car while I've had it, but for me it's time to stop putting money into it and get a car with an automatic transmission. This car would make a perfect fun weekend four-wheeler or regular stuff-mover. Comfortable enough as a daily driver or road tripper, with enough power and agility to work your way through what the road throws at you. The full gallery (27 pictures) is available by request and I can add detail pictures as requested. Please send me a message with any questions. PLEASE READ THE VEHICLE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. This vehicle is being sold AS-IS with no warranty, expressed or implied. It is your responsibility to contact me to inspect and/or test drive the vehicle before bidding. Bid if you are willing and able to purchase the car. This car is also listed locally. I reserve the right to sell the car locally before auction close if the reserve price has not yet been met by bidders. If your feedback is 1 or lower, please send me a message before bidding or your bid may be cancelled. Condition Generally good condition. Very good body and interior condition for its age, drives down the road straight and easy. Besides what is described here, no other known issues. I will include complete records from while I owned it, none were available from the dealer in PA who sold me the car. I had regular oil changes. There is no rust anywhere I'm aware of. Some very minor scratches here and there, one ding on the right rear door. Very minor wear-and-tear. CEL is on. With the CEL on the car will not pass Illinois emissions testing. In effort to track down and repair I have replaced in past month: -Thermostat & gasket, drain & fill radiator -O2 sensors (repl with Bosch sensors) -Exhaust work - repl flexpipe bellows Current CEL code: P0432 While I've owned the car, I also did this work: -Used fuel system cleaner Apr '13 -Repl all 5 tires Jun '13 -Repl fuel filter Jul '13 -Repl air filter Summer '13 -Repl front brake pads & lube Nov '13 -Repl front brake calipers Dec '13 -Repl front wheel hubs with WARN manual 60247 Mar '14 Have complete gas mileage log 3/13-3/14. Features -WARN manual hubs as mentioned for the 4WD. -Car has added RF modulator inline with the antenna to connect a music player using an RCA cable. -12VDC in cigarette lighter and inside liftgate area. History -I purchased the car about a year ago from a dealer in PA on eBay. Item 310624507023 from uncamikey (3347). He had no records, but the history report came back clear. -I drove the car from PA to Chicago where it has been my daily driver for a highway commute usually off rush hour period. I took a handful of trips out of town. In one year I drove the car about 8,830 miles. -This winter has been very cold and long in Chicago but besides the front hubs, the cold/ice/snow left no damage. -I never used the car as an aggressive four-wheeler (most just used 4wd for icy parallel parking) or drove off-road. -I rotated the tires once after purchasing in November 2013 using a rearward cross pattern. That's why you see the steel rim installed and the alloy wheel on the spare mount. Shipping and Payment -Please submit $500 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of auction close. -Full payment is due within 3 days of auction close. Payment must clear before I will sign over the title and hand over control of the vehicle. -I will not give you financing or accept a payment plan.

Dancer who portrays Kia hamster guilty of disability fraud
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Tisk, tisk, dancing hamster. Kia's trio of anthropomorphic rodents may be down a member as the actor that portrays one of the dancing hamsters has been arrested on charges of disability fraud.
According to The Huffington Post, 27-year-old LeRoy Barnes accepted over $51,000 in disability payments following a workplace injury in 2010. While accepting the money, he's accused of performing under aliases, in addition to his costumed work for Kia.
"Fraudulently collecting disability benefits is not only illegal, it disrespects legitimately injured Californians who are unable to work," Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said in a release obtained by HuffPo.
Provo concept name has Kia embroiled in terrorism controversy?
Fri, 08 Mar 2013In the relatively lengthy press release that Kia composed for the launch of its Provo concept car at the Geneva Motor Show this week, the company never mentioned where the name came from, or what it means for the car. A very basic web search for "Provo" reveals that the inspiration for the hatch could have been a city in Utah, a township in South Dakota or a village in Bosnia. The name could be a reference to either an American (Fred) or Canadian (Dwayne) football player, and Provo might also accurately reference a "Dutch counterculture movement in the mid-1960s" or a ship in the US Navy. More likely than any of those, however, is that the Kia designers of the concept - a car that was wholly a product of the Korean automaker's design studios in Frankfurt, for the record - meant it as a play on the existing Pro_cee'd hatchback.
What the designers and Kia executives that signed off on the Provo almost certainly did not have in mind was a reference to a street name for the Provisional Irish Republican Army. That "Provo" was, according to TheDetroitBureau.com, an outlawed army faction that was blamed for some 2,000 deaths in Northern Ireland during a period stretching from 1970 to 1997.
And yet, it was that association that led Gregory Campbell, a member of parliament from Northern Ireland, to introduce legislation that would ban Kia from selling a car under the name Provo. Kia, quick to realize the sizable gaffe it has stumbled into with the name, has reportedly already promised not to use the name for a production vehicle.
