Used 2006 Kia Sportage for Sale near Nanaimo, BC

I bought this car brand new in 2006. We have 90K miles on it, and have spent money only on routine maintenance items to keep it running. It has plenty of cargo room in the back for packing luggage for a long trip, groceries, and for our 90-lb. labrador retriever to lay down. This model is a five-speed 4-cylinder engine, so gas mileage is better than I expected for an SUV (close to 28 mpg HWY). Since this is a 5-speed manual transmission, acceleration is quite easy, even when running the air conditioner. For a base model and being a 5-speed, there are many unexpected options: cruise control, automatic windows and locks, front and side airbags. My favorite feature is the air bag weight sensor in the passenger's seat that will turn off the front passenger airbag if the individual sitting in the passenger's seat is under 100 lbs. This allowed for booster seats and smaller children to sit in the front at times. Handling and breaking are as expected. If I could change anything, I would find a way to reduce the road noise and get a different colored interior. Black interiors are way to hot in this part of the country.

for the size it is reasonable on fuel and it goes anywhere.

I bought mine new and had it til my son wrecked it in Jan 2017. Best purchase ever! Nothing went wrong in my Kia, just regular maintenance. Gas mileage not so great. I had the 6 cylinder 4 door automatic. Drove to Calif and Nevada (from Wa state) several times. Had some road noise, I wish the heater had more oomph in the foot area; air conditioner was A-1. I give the 2006 Kia Sportage 500 stars! I loved my Sportage so much I am looking for another one just like it!The optional netting for the cargo area is another fantastic idea, can be used many ways.I would add the little water guards that go over the tops of the windows if I ever get to buy another Sportage.Best car EVER!!!!!!

Love the interior and exterior of the car. Handles like a dream. I get many compliments on the car.

This is a fun and dependable suv along with easily maintainable! I use it to commute to work during the week and have safely made it there during various weather conditions with my children as passengers. My family has expanded and I needed to get a larger suv to accomadate our expansion.
