Boru---I am asking you because you said that you had a Kia.
For 2002;do you know if they added a bigger engine?When I bought my; Jeep Grand Cherokee;I wanted to buy a Kia.I looked on the web and Kia only had a small 4cyl. for all models.I had an old('84)Bronco11 that I would have jury-rigged to run forever. My wife; usualy drives my Pontiac to work;(dependability)and she&one of my daughters;were bugging me to get something newer and more dependable.I wanted something smaller and of the same body style and while looking at ANOTHER vehicle at a dealers;I spotted the Jeep.It had many options and an unbelievable price($12,900)I drove it;discussed it with my wife and if they didn't raise the price;I thought;I would buy it before they smartened up.The next day,I bought it.It was formerly a leased vehicle;so everything was like new! Thanks,Irish P.S.In my life,I have gotten out of more bad spots with power; then with brakes.I have had a race-engined Firebird and many high powered cars that I built but it's time to smarten up.As my father said:"You can't beat a radio wave!" |
I agree Pje...they handle the road so gracefully...not to mention the vibration of the engine felt in the drivers seat!!! :D :D :D
Now there is a toy I can handle driving everyday!!! ;) :D (((Hmmm...maybee that's why Irish likes his bikes!!! :D :D ))) |

Sharni---Which engine does your Kawi have?My buddy had one
and stopped by my house one day after putting a new Parelli(sp) back tire on.When he left the tire spun through high gear by just accelerating! Irish |
Sharni---Sorry!I just read the thread again and noticed that it said
750. Irish |
Hmmm...
I guess I'm the token starving student. I can't afford a vehicle, so (like David Owiye) I'm pretty much resigned to public transit for the foreseeable future. Therefore, I'd have to describe my dream car this way: A vehicle, preferably with circular wheels (square ones are such a pain), and which ideally would be propelled in something other than Fred Flintstone style (blisters on the feet not being my idea of sexy). Pedals are okay, a motor is better, and one which doesn't require hand-cranking to start is better still... If the whole contraption moves even slightly more quickly than I do on foot, I'm happy! :rolleyes: :D --- sweetstuff |
for Irish
Nope, no new engine for the Kia Rio,
all they added was a new radio and a lumbar support in the driver's seat. That and a few hundred dollars to the price. BORU |
I have to say, I'm in the same boat (or is that bus) as SFC
|
Thats fine Irish.....as for spinning the wheel...it can do that.....most of my bikes power is mid to top range...
The fastest we've had it is 200km/h (Bilbo riding..me pillion)....it still had plenty of go left too....but believe me that was quite quick enough:D Motorcycling is in my blood....i'll never get rid of my baby...ever!:D |
'98 Chevy Lumina (sedan) for me... Husband drives a '94 Dodge Spirit back and forth to work. :)
