2006 Kia Picanto EX 1.1 petrol

50,500 km, windshield cleaner replaced, rubber was noisy and scratching the windshield.
General Comments:
I like this car, everybody in the family uses it. I see a lot of these Kia Picantos, some are newer models. The price was right, and it's the EX version with A/C, air bag, hydraulic steering wheel and automatic transmission, as well as leather seats.
It's really comfortable, but internal space is small for rear passengers, despite not using this car for longer commutes where people need to sit in the back.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
