Looking at Fastcars 6 page Trax coverage, not one coupe is in sight, between that Yellow/Black Gen3, that Eclipse painted Gen3 and Lidls, I was expecting at least 1 of them in there.

More Gen bashing from a moderator! this sites a "do as I say not as I do" site.
Only one of the 3 cars I mentioned was a Gen1, the other 2 were Gen3s.

I don't do what Donna tells me, so you got no chance. Max Power seems to give them some respect, one of the Gen3s i mentioned was a feature car in there, and they've recently done a Kia in there. But the others, no chance. Theres not even a specialist mag like there is for Ford/Vauxhall/BMW/Japanese cars

 

[thedupleman]

i know im hoping with kia and hyundai getting more popular one may emerge

 

[Burger28]

and they've recently done a Kia in there.

oh? which Kia? got any pics?

 

[ashgen2]

i think the reason coupes are getting snubbed is 2 basic reasons.... bhp and 0-60... alot of people cant see beyond those figures and lets be honest the coupes dont exactly excel in either.... Also the fact there made by koreans who eat dogs seems to be a popular reason why there crap according to the people who have never sat in one never mind owned or driven one

 

[thedupleman]

i say we make ash the british ambassador to korea
"aw hey guys we cant meet today cos sadly you eat dogs"
very diplomatic :lol:

 

[LiDL]

Mags are all about the "in thing" hyundai coupe's and coupes in general arent the "in thing" at the mo.. and would also look silly "euro-style"

At the moment they're featuring a lot of smaller cars, theres been a few 1.4 Civics (the late 90s model) featured recently, Coupe may not be the quickest, but they are quicker than a 1.4.

As for the Kia, not sure of the model, about Golf sized and square. Was at the Max Power stand at modified live (near Maxdaccents car which I missed). As I already said though, Max do feature the odd one.

 

[maxdaccent]

that kia you saw at modified live is MAX POWERS own car. and the model is the SOUL if i remember right.

 

[LiDL]

This badger? I do like dark graphics on a dark car.. I think I should get a black gen3 and put carbon grey graphics on it.

 

[thedupleman]

that would look good

 

[ashgen2]

my neighbour has one of those almost identical to that one!!!! easily the coolest thing on the road.. Bright red interior is like :shock: at first but im really liking it now...

The kia like the golf is the CEED is it not?

 

[thedupleman]

it is.

 

[ashgen2]

 

[eggcatcher]

Ash the Ceed is the 5 door, that pic is the Pro-Ceed, a 3-door model realeased a bit later. looks like Kia are making some nice motors but still need to work on their naming.

The one at Snetterton is like the one Lidls pictured, but was white.
