We have now formed "MOTORCADE CARS SL" a Spanish Company which does exactly the same concept in Spain.

At the end of lease ( between 3 to 4 years normally ) the vehicle is returned to a holding depot and has a thorough engineers report carried out, " A SGS REPORT " ( which we have access to ) and are graded A to F, If the vehicle has any issues the driver or his company are charged , So hence there is a strong emphasis on the driver to look after his vehicle, PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE OUR VEHICLES WITH DAILY RENTALS WHICH TEND TO HAVE LOWER KMS BUT HAVE HUNDREDS OF DIFFERENT DRIVERS, THESE VEHICLES ARE STOP/START ALL DAY LONG AND GET PARKING DENTS ALL OVER AND CAN BE BADLY ABUSED AND IN AWFUL CONDITION, ( we have all been on holiday and hired a car !!! ) WE NEVER BUY OR SELL THESE VEHICLES, Our vehicles come direct to us with ALL DOCUMENTS & "CLEAR TITLE" needed for immediate resale , ( road tax, i.t.v, Permiso de circulacion, & Ficha tecnica ) The transfer process can only begin with these Documents, We use a qualified Gestor, Alexander, from Prymar SL email address paquiseguros@live.com phone no 0034 952469 035 ( also an AXA ins Agent so insurance can be arranged if needed ) in the selling process and the following clear readable copys are required from the purchaser before we can release /deliver the vehicle, Once we have following documents the customer is given a " OFFICAL JUSTIFICANTE PROFESIONAL " ( cover note ) from the Gestoria which proves the transfer of ownership is in process, A vehicle cannot be driven without this document ( required by police if asked ) This is Spanish law. 1.

FF layout The Kia Carnival is a minivan manufactured by Kia Motors, introduced in 1998, now in its second generation and marketed globally under various nameplates — prominently as the Kia Sedona.
First generation models remain in production (e.g., in China). Second generation models have been marketed since model year 2006 — including as a rebadged variant[1] in the United States, the Hyundai Entourage for model years 2007–2009.
Beginning in 2010 certain global markets (e.g., the UK) of the second generation model began receiving updated equipment, engine choices and Kia's new corporate grille, known as the Tiger Nose, as designed by Kia's design chief, Peter Schreyer.
In late 2009, Kia announced plans to cease production of the Carnival/Sedona in 2011.[2] Contents 1 First generation (1998–2006)

Kia Optima (facelift)[citation needed] The Kia Sedona first generation was marketed globally, for example as the Naza Ria in Malaysia. The first generation model is currently manufactured and marketed in specific regions, including under a joint venture in the Chinese market with Dongfeng Yueda Kia Automobile Company.
In the United States, the first generation Sedona competed with the minivan segment of Toyota Sienna, Honda Odyssey, Ford Windstar/Ford Freestar and the Chrysler minivans — and was Kia's top-selling vehicle when it launched.
With a 3.5 L V6 engine making 195 hp (145 kW) and a 4-speed automatic (later a 5-speed automatic transmission), the Sedona lacked features that other minivans had such as power sliding doors and power liftgate, a fold flat third row seat, navigation system, rear-view camera, and backup sensors. Early Sedonas were rated at 15.6 L/100 km (15.1 mpg) (city) and 10.9 L/100 km (21.6 mpg) (highway), but the numbers improved slightly to 14.8 L/100 km (15.9 mpg) (city) and 9.6 L/100 km (24.5 mpg) (highway) for 2005 models.
In Australia, the Kia Carnival went on sale in 1999, with a standard 5-speed manual and 2.5 L V6 producing 177 hp (132 kW). A 4-speed automatic was optional. In 2001, it outsold the Toyota Tarago, becoming the top-selling minivan in the country. It was sales leader again in 2004 and 2005, when sales peaked at 5,259 units, which in itself was a record for any minivan. 2004-2005 Kia Sedona LX (US) In Europe is available only with the 2.5 Rover KV6 engine[4] 24V petrol with 163 PS and Euro 2 standard emission level and the 2,9 litres turbodiesel engine with 126 PS. From 2001 Kia Motors introduce the 2.5 KV6 Euro 3 with 150 PS and the new 2.9 CRDI common rail diesel engine with 144 PS. [edit] Second generation (2006–present) Second generation Also called

Hyundai Entourage Kia introduced the second generation Carnival/Sedona worldwide for model year 2006 — in short (SWB) and long wheelbase (LWB) models — with a 2-inch-wider front track, 3-inch-wider rear track and reduced turning radius[6] than the first generation. The SWB model shares its platform with the Kia Magentis[7] — and was specially designed for the European market,[7] where it falls in the large MPV class.
With a lighter engine, greater use of high-tensile steel in the body, and a lighter transmission and rear suspension, the minivan lost approximately 400 lbs in the redesign.[8]
In certain markets, Kia offers the minivan in both wheelbases (e.g., in North America, Australia) or in other markets, simply as the short wheelbase configuration (e.g., UK, France). Globally, the minivan has been offered with four engines as well as manual and automatic transmissions.
Equipment content varies widely by market — including such features as six airbags (front, front side and air curtain), Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with Traction Control System (TCS) & Brake Assist System (BAS), dual or tri-zone heating and cooling, 'walk through' aisle between the front seats with fold-down tray, tilt/height adjustable steering wheel, ISOFIX anchor points, rear side sliding doors with 'hold open' locking feature (to prevent an open door from inadvertently closing), second row power roll-down windows, third row 60/40 fold-in-floor seat (LWB only), power sliding doors and liftgate, backup sensors, and in-dash navigation.
In European and Asian markets, the SWB models offer a full-range of options and available equipment, with a 2+3+2 seating configuration (an essential format in a large MPV for Europe).[9] By contrast, in the U.S. the SWB model is offered only in a base equipment level with a 2+2+3 seating configuration — and high-end options exclusive to LWB models.
[edit] United States Kia Sedona SWB (US) Kia introduced the second generation Sedona to the North American market at the 2005 Chicago Auto Show[10] for model year 2006 offering a single engine/transmission choice, the 240 hp 3.8-liter V6 Hyundai Lambda engine with continuously variable intake valve timing and a five-speed manumatic automatic transmission.[10] 2011 Kia Sedona (US) Initially offered only in long wheelbase (LWB) form, the short wheelbase (SWB) model followed for model year 2007.[10] Trim levels include Sedona (SWB), Sedona LX (LWB), and Sedona EX (LWB). The van was updated for the 2011 model year with a new grille and taillights, a more powerful engine and a six-speed automatic transmission, but dropped the short-wheelbase version because of poor sales.
A rebadged version of the Sedona was offered from 2007-2009 as the Hyundai Entourage. See: Kia Sedona reveal rendering for the 2005 Chicago Auto Show The American configuration earned a five-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for all seating positions in frontal and side-impact crashes. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety also rates the Sedona “Good” — its highest rating — in front, side and rear impacts. The IIHS has christened the 2006 Sedona a “Gold Top Safety Pick,” making the Sedona (and the similar Hyundai Entourage) the safest minivan currently tested.[11][12]
[edit] United Kingdom
The Sedona has been the second top selling large MPV in the UK market, and in 2010 received a new grill, new equipment (including a reversing camera built into the rear-view mirror) and a single engine choice, a 192PS 2.2 CRDi I4 replacing the 183PS 2.9 CDRi.[13] The Sedona is marketed in three trim levels (1,2 & 3) with a 5-speed manual transmission or six-speed automatic gearbox. Trim level 1 includes air-conditioning, electric windows. Trim level 2 receives alloy wheels, rear parking sensors incorporated into the rear-view mirror, and climate control. Trim level 3 adds electronic stability control.
See: 2010 UK Sedona with 'tiger nose' corporate grille by designer Peter Schreyer.[14]
[edit] Australia
The second generation went on sale in Australia in January 2006 as the Carnival and Grand Carnival — continuing alongside the first generation model until joined by the SWB second generation model. The new model features a 3.8 L V6 engine, standard seating for 8, and a 5-speed automatic with manual shift mode. It is priced almost 25% higher than the existing Carnival, which continues with a 2.7L V6. Australia has yet to see the 11-seater model, and no information is available on when it will be released (June 2007). A 2.9L turbo diesel version was introduced in March 2009.
[edit] Reception
The Kia Sedona (Carnival) has received the 2007 MotorWeek “Best Minivan” award in its 2007 Drivers' Choice Awards and The Car Book's 2007 “Best Bet” distinction. Overall, Kia models improved 22%-in J.D. Power and Associates 2006 Initial Quality Study (IQS), and-improved twice as much as any competitor in the last 3 years.[15]
The Kia Sedona ranked 4th the “20 least expensive 2009 vehicles to insure” list by Insure.com. [16] Edmunds.com names Kia Sedona as one of the “Top Recommended” Vehicles for 2010.[17]
[edit] Reliability In the 2007 reliability report published by TÜV, 1st generation (1999–2005) of Kia Carnival placed 113th out of 113 in the 2 to 3-year-old cars category, with a defect rate of 25.1%.[18] In the 2008 TÜV report, 1st generation (1999–2005) of Kia Carnival placed 116th out of 116 in the same category, with a defect rate of 19.70%, and also placed 111th out of 111 in the 4 to 5-year-old cars category, with a defect rate of 27.60%.[19] According to MSN autos reliability survey, 2006 Kia Sedona reliability rated as good, overall 5/5. It rated as "Minimal Problems", and comment as "Infrequent problems reported, all with low repair costs."[20] MSN Autos use industry-leading Identifix for reliable data on all automobiles.[21] According to MyRide.com reliability survey,[22] The MyRide Reliability Ratings are collected from visitors and past customers of Autobytel Inc.'s websites (Autobytel.com, Autoweb.com and CarSmart.com) who own vehicles from model year 2001 and newer via an online survey conducted by an independent third party. Durability scored 86 (Industrial average 80)
Mechanical Quality scored 89 (Industrial average 80) The 2009 Kia Sedona's JD Power reliability score is same as the 2009 Honda Odyssey [23] and 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan.[24] [edit] References ^ "Hyundai Entourage and Kia Sedona: American Pie From a Korean Kitchen".

""The Kee concept that we showed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2007 was the first car that introduced our distinctive new grille – the ‘tiger nose’ as it’s now known,” explains the 57-year old German. “When we started on this tiger nose,” he reaches for pencil and paper and begins to sketch the Kia face with swift and assured strokes, “I wanted a powerful visual signal, a seal, an identifier. The front of a car needs this recognition, this expression. A car needs a face and I think the new Kia face is strong and distinctive. Visibility is vital and that face should immediately allow you to identify a Kia even from a distance.”"

Read the full review $32,990 - $37,290 Kia does the seven-seat MPV thing in typical style. So, it's boring to look at, dull to drive, tedious to talk about and a residual black hole.

SUVs/Trucks/Vans Kia Carnival/Sedona MPV Review Kia's Sedona has Plenty of Features to Enjoy Jan 2, 2010 Sam Domett Kia Carnival or US Model Sedona - author While it's known as the Carnival LTD in New Zealand, the model is essentially the same as the Kia Sedona EX in the US In a world of cars in which you get the standard number of seats and windows etc, MPV’s can have all sorts of surprise and delight features and the NZ$53,990 Kia Carnival LTD diesel has all sorts of secrets hidden in it.
Power Operated Doors
For a start there are the rear doors and tailgate – they are all power operated. Then there’s the third row of seats which fold flat into the floor. Even with the seats up there’s plenty of room for luggage behind them, especially since there’s access to the recesses they occupy when stowed away. With the rear seats folded away there is a huge space, and there are still five seats available.
Three Rows of Seats
The third row can seat three at a pinch, making for a total of eight seating positions, but since the centre position is lap belt only from a safety perspective it can’t be recommended as anything but an occasional seating position. Of course the middle seats fold up as well, and owners take them out and swap them around if required. The driver’s seat is power adjustable, using a door mounted switch identical in shape to the one Mercedes put in their cars, while the LTD gets full leather interior.
Rear Seat Air conditioning
To keep an eye on back seat passengers an extra rear view mirror folds down out of the roof and to keep the rear cool there’s a separate ventilation system for the back. About the only family friendly thing the Carnival does not have is a DVD system, but it should be on the options list. There is an Infinity MP3 capable sound system which is particularly impressive.
Safety Features
The Kia Carnival LTD also has ABS and EBS and a reverse warning system, along with a full complement of six airbags, including curtain bags. The petrol Carnival has been around for a while, but the diesel one has proven so popular that it’s sold out until early 2010. Read on 2010 Kia Soul Review
2011 Kia Forte Koup Review
Kia Cee'd SW Diesel Engine
While not available in the US, the diesel is a 2.9-litre unit which produces a healthy 134kW/343Nm, running through a five speed automatic gearbox but while it’s a good engine there’s something very wrong with the accelerator. A push on the accelerator is met with a leisurely response, and then the vehicle goes from hardly accelerating at all to rapidly gaining speed as the turbo spools up and a large amount of torque is produced.
It’s a real disappointment that such a good family car has such a flaw, because in all other respects there’s no reason for anyone shopping for a large MPV to avoid the Kia Carnival. Copyright Sam Domett. Contact the author to obtain permission for republication. Print Article

Several structures in the dashboard presented a hazard to the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. The brake pedal moved rearward by more than 100mm, posing some threat to the driver's lower legs and ankles.Side impactThe Carnival/Sedona scored full points for its performance in the side impact and pole tests.Child occupantThe passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward-facing child restraint to be used. However, information provided to the driver about the status of the airbag is not sufficiently clear. The label warning against the use of a rearward facing child restraint in that seating position was only on one side of the sun visor and could not be seen with the visor stowed. The presence of ISOFIX anchorages in the rear outboard seats was not clearly indicated.PedestrianThe bumper and the front edge of the bonnet scored no points for the protection they offered to pedestrians' legs. The part of the bonnet likely to be struck by a child's head also offered no protection. The protection offered by the bonnet to an adult's head was predominantly poor.
