2021 Kia Sportage 1.6T GT-Line Estate

Description

So, I’ve been keeping this car for a few years now — it’s my daily driver, and honestly, it’s one of the most reliable ones I’ve ever had. It’s a 2021 Kia Sportage 1.6T GT-Line Estate, owned by just one person, and it’s had only 26,640 miles on it. That’s not a lot for its age, and it’s been properly looked after.

The engine’s solid — a 1.6-litre petrol unit, Euro 6 compliant, and it gets you from 0 to 60 in about 8.9 seconds. Not a rocket, but it’s smooth and responsive when you want to go faster. The GT-Line trim gives it a bit of a premium feel — LED headlights, parking sensors all around, and even parking assist. I’ve used that a million times when parking in tight spots, and it’s saved me more than once.

Inside, it’s comfy. Keyless entry, automatic air conditioning (dual zones), and the touchscreen nav with traffic updates is a real help — especially when I’m driving through Wales or the countryside. I use Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the voice control works pretty well. The seats are heated, and the driver’s seat has manual height adjustment — I’ve actually used that when I’m tired or just want to make the drive easier.

It’s been through a full AA inspection — that’s the one with the 128-point check — so I know it’s been properly tested. The service history is there, and it’s been checked for any major issues. There’s also an immobiliser and alarm, which I appreciate when I’m driving around at night or in the hills near Welshpool.

I’ve been living here in Welshpool, Powys, and this is just how I’ve been keeping things simple — reliable, no fuss, and actually drives well. The price is £14,395.50, but I don’t feel like I need to talk about that much. I’m just happy it’s been a good fit for me.

If you’re looking for something practical, safe, and not too flashy — this one’s got it. And I’m happy to chat or meet up if you’d like to take a look. Open 7 days a week — I’m around during the day, mostly.

No big changes, no major repairs — just a car that’s been well cared for, and I’m happy to hand it over.
