On test we have the Kia Carnival SLi 2.2L CRDi Auto. The initial impression when you approach the Carnival is just how little it looks like a van based people mover. On test I had a number of moms come up to me and ask to check it out. They all were impressed. It’s almost like they could read the minds of the thousands of moms out there with larger families.

Remember that while the X4xDrive30d is technically an AWD SUV, it definitely isn’t designed for virtually any sort of off road driving.

The 2016 Mitsubishi Triton Single Cab GLX 2WD Trayback Ute has been the superstar in our renovation. We would have struggled to do it without. I think I have sold about three similar Utes to trade people turning up to do quotes. Unfortunately the good people at Mitsubishi actually wanted their Ute back [Read More]
