Bought this for half the price of its competitors - Now have 120,000 miles with few problems. Service centers are mostly good ( one big exception & on big ticket items like air conditioning it pays to shop around ! ) Ask Kia sportage drivers you meet & almost all like their cars. Hardly ever see one for sale - people keep them until the cows come home. Recent changes to big & fancy models made the KIA SUV just like all the others.

We've had this car for some time (81,000 miles),and have only had a few minor issues. Master cylinder (warranty)rear window motors (warranty). Runs great, and though it will not accelerate very quickly, due to gear ratio and automatic trans, the top end is well in excess of 110 mph. Michelin's make a difference, handles like a top heavy short wheel base narrow track vehicle it is, pretty damn good, lots of fun. Inexpensive fun s--t box.

A list of fact/impressions with my 2001 Sportage: + Reliable + OEM tires sucked--go with yokahomas + Love the suspension--take road humps at 40 mph + Love the manueverability--turns on a dime + Styling inspired by 1950s cold war military--good or bad + Well designed seating--I'm 6'4" and I have plenty of room; also, elevating the rear seats makes riding in back not- so-bad BUT... + Could Kia have found cheaper materials for the interior trim?! + Like the power windows and the base accessory set BUT... + need to redesign front cup holder and rear tailgate + affordable maintenance and easy to repair--both at body shop and at home
