well i feel like a traitor, was looking for a 4WD and ended up getting a 99 Kia Sportage.
Was looking for a Jimny or Sierra must be no earlier than 99 and around 2 litre and must have a low range so that left the pretend off roaders like Rav4 etc out ,but could not get a jimny and the only available cars were all vitaras or sierras V6, and i just don't like V6, if I am going to have a V anything it will be a V8, and the kia came up cheap, is about the same size as the sierras etc. and has a lot of accessories for the price,will find out how it performs off road soon. Very bouncy on road i was told they are supposed to run at 38psi in the tyres which sounds ridiculous to me, haven't checked the tyres yet but if anywhere near 38 psi will be going back to 30 psi.
Should be ok, was talking to few people first they all liked their Kias.
