Haven't been on here for a while, life has been busy.
We had our third child two weeks ago and even before that it's been a madhouse lifestyle. We're moving to a city 2 and half hours away in 2 months time due to work promotion.
With three kids and two of those in capsules/booster seats, the Sporty was getting a bit cramped. We only really took notice after my son complained he was being squashed. So, a vehicle swap was on the cards. We looked at the options of upgrading to a larger 4x4, ie. Sorento, but we just haven't got the funds to upgrade to that extent. So, with some regrets we traded the KIA for a Toyota Camry V6 as off-roading won't be a regular event for a while. On the plus side though, work is providing me with a 2007 Toyota Hilux, 4 door ute, 4x4, V6 turbo diesel. So, I may drop in to the forums once in a while but under a different banner.
It's been a great pleasure to be involved in this space and I give thanks to all of you who contributed to all the aspects of what the KIA Sportage is capable of.
AdsKIA - great video, you must be so proud. Shows the Oz spirit through and through.
Flyboy - Thanks for helping with the MAF, it's been brilliant ever since arriving down under.
Whoever gets our car in the future will get more than the 40,000 km that we enjoyed over the last 3 years.
Cheers, best wishes to all and catch you on the flip side.
