Hi

I will be picking up my 1.5 CRDi Rio Strike Special Edition this weekend.
 
The main reasons I went for this as my new car (replacing a 02 reg Ford Ka Luxury) were
 
1. Recomadation - My sister also has a Rio
2. 7 Year Warranty
3. Price
4. Nice Looking Car
 
I am new to Kia, is there anything that you seasoned users can recommend that I buy as an accessory when I pick it up that does not come with the car as standard? (Ipod Cable, car mats?)
 
Cheers

Ricky

Welcome to the forum Ricky.
I to have a Rio diesel and I bought mudflaps all round for it. I must say they are a bit on the short side but I think the car looks good with them. I would go for a set of mats and maybe a boot liner if your a mucky lad. I used the ones out of my previous Ceed they sort of fit but I might treat myself to a Rio set.  If you go on to the Kia site they show what accessories there is for the Rio and give you prices. VikingPaul on here will give you a discount on these items just ask him.
CEED 1.4S, CEED 1.4SR, RIO 1.5CRDI BAGS MORE FUN. VW LT35. FAZER1000 Even more fun.

Do you know if the car comes with the cable to connect my ipod nano or do I need to buy a new cable?

I think I will buy the Rio car mats from the dealer when I collect, they look smart.
 
I will post my reviews on the car after a few months as well
 
Cheers
