Re: Up to £2000 off Sorento's

OK, so several wise guys disapprove of the Sorento. What do they approve of?

The Sorento is a fine car. Just read any independent review.

The gratuitous ribbing of Sorento owners, the merciless shaming of Sorento
purveyors, the ridicule of those that believe independent reviews are just
that.
The use of Sorentos as land fill, sea anchors, artificial reefs, ballast etc
etc
But seriously, I would love the Sorento if only I could get it with Burberry
velour...think Kia missed a trick there!

Be honest. You can't afford a Sorento.

(Not a Freeloader owner, perchance?)

I can't afford to be SEEN in a Sorento - my clients would think I'd fallen
on hard times.
But since you're asking I have an Oyster 61 (Hint: it's not a car)

Not a desperate Kia franchisee perchance ?

How does it tow? I can go to about 1300kg at 85%, would it do or is it too
heavy?

At 30,000kgs It doesn't get towed...

NB. there is nothing in your post that obviously suggests coming from
caravanning (apart from your statement).
Judging by your reply you are equally unaware that mine is from
uk.rec.sailing.

Twas intended as a light-hearted response. Maybe I should have added a
smilie. I looked it up on google before I posted, then posted pretending I
thought it was a caravan.

I was partly trying to highlight how difficult it is to keep on topic for
such disparate groups and partly just joining in the general silliness.

His original link was faulty because as well as being a spammer, he's a
really stupid spammer and it didn't work anyway.
So his bank are probably laughing at HIM right now.
Anyway if you feel so strongly about a bit of humour aimed at this tw@, kill
this thread, then you won't burden yourself with it.

Careful Martin! If you don't watch out Alan Holmes might killfile *you*
as well and then you'll be in the same tragic situation as poor ACC.
