Final fling for Kia 4x4

07th August 2009

THE welly-boot set’s favourite just got street-smart! A makeover by German tuner Irmscher has given Kia’s Sorento a last hurrah before it’s replaced next year.

Finished in silver or black, the model comes with two styles of 18-inch alloys. Side bars add a chrome highlight. Inside, there’s black and tan Irmscher-stamped leather and a drop-down rear DVD screen.

The special edition is available only in Germany. However, UK buyers can save up to £5,700 on the standard diesel Sorento, starting from £14,995, while £4,000 has been slashed from the lavishly equipped Titan, dropping its price to £22,195.

The new Sorento is due in March and will boast seven seats, plus a monocoque shell.
