Though I dislike the AP King, I bought a Kia Forte 1.6 SX recently simply because it's the most affordable C segment non-national car around. I took delivery of the car on Christmas eve and had done 700 km so far. It's a nice car to drive, quiet, comfortable and powerful ( at least by my standard) but I must admit that the fuel consumption is quite frightening. Doing 10.5 litres per 100km in city drive and 8.4 litres city cum high way drive. May be the engine is still tight, hopefully the figure will improve, I have my fingers crossed. Anyway, I do enjoy every moment while driving the car. By the way, a very happy new year to all of you out there. Keep on bashing for as long as you could, no one has the right to stop you.
