2021 Kia Stonic GT-Line Hybrid SUV

Description

So, I’ve been keeping this car for a bit now — it’s a 2021 Kia Stonic GT-Line, 1.0 T-GDi MHEV petrol hybrid with manual transmission. It’s a five-door hatchback, Euro 6 compliant, and has 118 bhp — not flashy, but plenty for the job.

I bought it a couple of years ago after being really impressed with how smooth it drives and how efficient it is on the road. The hybrid bit means it’s not a huge fuel guzzler, and it’s got a lot of tech for a small SUV — like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a 8-inch touchscreen with navigation, and even a 4.2-inch display on the dash.

It’s got all the modern bits: parking sensors, reversing camera, cruise control, LED headlights, lane-keeping assist, and a whole bunch of safety features — including front crash avoidance and automatic emergency braking. The seats are comfortable, and the 17-inch alloy wheels look sharp, especially with the GT-Line body kit.

I’ve used it quite a bit — mostly local trips around littleover, Derby — and it’s been reliable. I’ve also got the original owner’s manual, and the keys are still in the box.

I know it’s been a previous keeper — might have had a few hands on it — but it’s been well looked after and no major damage. The service history is solid, and it’s been regularly maintained.

If you’re looking for something practical, tech-savvy, and not too flashy — this one’s a solid choice.

I’ve got it ready to go, and I can arrange a collection or delivery anywhere in the UK. Just £99 to reserve it — that’s fully refundable if you don’t end up buying it.

I’ve been working with Essex Car Company for a while — they’ve got over 200 cars on site, and I’ve actually seen the staff in action. They’re a family-run business, with three generations involved, and they’ve got a real track record of customer care.

They’ve even got a TV show on Channel 4 — “The Dealership” — which I watched when I first got into the car trade. It’s not about flashy sales — it’s about real people, real service.

If you’re thinking of buying it, I’d say go for it. It’s got good value, solid features, and they offer a warranty — even a free three-month one — which I think gives you peace of mind.

I’m based in littleover, Derby, so if you’re local, it’s easy to check it out.

Price is £12,595.50 — but I’m not going to say that out loud, because it’s not the point. What matters is that it’s ready, it’s reliable, and it’s just waiting for someone who needs a smart, practical car.

Let me know if you’d like to see it — I can get it out there for a quick chat.
