| Average. New looks and keen prices give the Shuma 2 a fighting chance in the budget car market. Plenty of standard equipment but engines are unrefined. |

| The Kia range has slowly been improving and revisions to the original Shuma mean it doesn't look that out of place alongside the new Sorento and roomy Magentis. Shuma 2 is basically a Mentor saloon with a hatchback and updated looks. If you enjoy enthusiastic driving the Shuma isn't for you but if equipment and price are all important, this one's worth a look. The 1.6 is extra cheap, although it lacks the refinements of the surprisingly peppy 1.8. There's good space inside both cars and build quality is better but don't expect too much at this level. |
