The KIA SORENTO (2003-10) 5DR SUV 3.5 V6 192 XS AUTO5 is a large, five-door family SUV with a raised driving position, roomy cabin and automatic gearbox. Now a budget used-car choice, it suits buyers wanting space and presence more than a compact commuter, rather than prioritising low running costs. Mycarcheck.com recorded 74 checks covering 37 VINs. The average private-sale value was £1,100, with average recorded mileage of 93,000 miles and annual mileage of 3,000. Vehicles had around 5.6 previous keepers on average, making careful history and condition checks worthwhile, so check records and inspect each vehicle carefully before purchase. The 3.5-litre V6 feels strong, though fuel use may disappoint beside a Hyundai Santa Fe or Nissan X-Trail. Best for families or leisure users seeking an affordable, roomy automatic for trips or towing, the Sorento feels substantial; check upkeep costs and condition before buying; consider age and service history too.
