Hi All,
Ceeds, and other  KIAs, are getting very popular in my neck of the woods.
Within a 500m radius of me these have arrived (there could be more) in the past 6 weeks.
Ceeds     4
Ceed SW 2
Pro-ceed 2
Picanto   4
Rio          5
Soul        3
Sportage 2
Sorento  3
Venga     2
Plus an older Carens and a couple of Shuma's.

All the latest ones, except 3, are from the same dealer.

Think I'll start my own branch of the Owners Club Smile

I am also seeing a larger number of Kia's on the road. 

Must be a smart man's car Smile

I've only ever seen one pro on the roads around my area. But the soul!! It's like the Italian job they keep coming in threes! There everywere. Think the lack of pro's is down to my local dealer only having the 1. And not showing off the higher spec variants. Compared to some of the higher spec ceeds people tend to look more at them

Since my original post on 19 Oct 11 I've now counted a further 31 KIAs', on an increased radius from me to 1000 metres.
This past week I've had my White Ceed2 on the front drive while using the garage to repair the granddaughters rust bucket and two people have asked over the front gate "how do you find it" while an 'elderly' lady knocked on the door to ask "can I sit in it, please'

Counting KIAs' for a hobby !, sad innit

That's great, I love the attention mine gets - I've seen 3 other Pros at work :( and numerous Ceeds on my drive to and from work.

Really funny is before I got My Pro 4 , I didn't see any in my neighbourhood , only a cuople of Carens , & a Sorento . But I now know of another 2 Silver Pro's in the neighbourhood . Don't want them to be too popular , don't want them to become like a golf ! LOL

Now to start counting the Optimas. That should be really interesting as only 1600 are coming into the country this year.

That 'elderly' lady who asked to sit in my Ceed 2, she's 7 yrs younger than me BTW, stopped me while out walking the dog today to inform "I've ordered a Ceed 3 in blue"

In our area there are many more Ceed's, Sportage's and Soul's
than I've ever noticed before.
Kia are selling an awful lot of cars here anyway. That's for sure.
Happy motoring,Ian.
