KIA CERATO (2004-08) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 CRDI 113 LX
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The KIA CERATO (2004-08) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.6 CRDI 113 LX is a compact five-door family hatchback from Kia’s 2004–08 range, aimed at buyers wanting practical everyday transport rather than a premium badge. In the UK used-car market it sits among affordable alternatives to familiar rivals such as the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra, with a useful shape for town and longer journeys.
The 1.6 CRDi diesel engine makes this Cerato a sensible option for commuters and drivers covering regular distances, while five doors and a roomy hatchback layout suit small families, couples or first-time used-car buyers. The LX version offers straightforward, practical motoring; its appeal is value and usability rather than sporty style or luxury. As with any older diesel, condition and service history matter more than the badge.
