The KIA MAGENTIS (2006-11) 4DR SALOON 2.0 139 GS is a straightforward, spacious four-door family saloon, sitting in the larger mainstream car class rather than the small hatchback or SUV market. In the UK it was a less familiar alternative to popular choices such as the Ford Mondeo, Vauxhall Vectra and Toyota Avensis, so today it can appeal to buyers seeking roomy transport for modest money. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 34 look-ups covering 23 different VINs: a useful snapshot, though not a huge sample. Those checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,400, average recorded mileage of 93,000 and around 4,000 miles driven yearly. Vehicles averaged just over two previous keepers, suggesting many examples have had a relatively simple ownership history; always check the individual car’s records and condition. It suits families and commuters needing comfort and boot space, offering a value-led, no-fuss alternative to newer rivals in today’s used market.
