Sounds like you found the perfect car for your windsurfing gear! Have you looked into any accessories to make loading and securing your gear even easier?

@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Hi, All boards, sails, are in bags,, you can run cables padlocks, if on roof, just cover up inside car, in 40 years, its worked so far"" 😀, Always looking for suggestions ", Great vids and rev

Strangely, when it was launched it had a space saver AND the under boot storage...id suggest thats a cost saving. Although they have added rear compartment and boot 12v power outlets.

A great summary of the specification but very few negatives pointed out. Presumably OSV use these videos as promos for leasing of cars, so that's possibly why? It just seems odd to skirt over the fact this car doesn't offer a dual clutch auto anymore nor LED headlights (absolutely pathetic in 2022) or any of the niceties of the previous GT Line S spec (pan roof, jbl sound system, 40:20:40 split folding seats and so on). The GT model has been dropped too so KIA are massively cheaping out with the 2022 version of this car and it just seems wrong to not highlight any of these points. Like I say, great presentation of the spec as it is on paper, but not really a critique. And not to be too critical as I still like your content, but I can't imagine many people care about the history of the Proceed or what it was like in the 90d and when it comes to the mpg, my belief is no one would care what KIA says it should do on the WLTP, they'll surely be more interested to know the real figure when you've test driven it.

Hello Hector 👋 thank you for your honest feedback. We've passed this onto our video team and will take this on board moving forward.

[@slugger7440]

@@OsvUkVehicleSupply no worries, it was more of question of what you intend to achieve with your videos. They are great, but are they meant to be reviews or are they more promos for the cars? No worries if it's the latter, just not very clear on that. Learn a lot tho.

I'm pretty sure that Kia aren't cheaping out. Rather scaling back, again caused by the current chip shortage. I'm sure the GTS and 1.6 GT will be back. Now, to the Honda Civic, that's personal taste and again depends on the model chosen. (The latest Civic looks lovely, to me that's a first). You're probably right, the Civic is probably the better drivers car, but I think Kia are trying to bring something a bit different to the game with the Proceed. I think the GT line Proceed in Nerla Black (think that's what it's called) looks amazing and it does drive really well. I'm up for it anyway. Who knows, when the GT comes back (I'd take the Red accents off), I might have been inspired to get one of those... Happy Christmas to you all and happy car hunting.

It is alright but there are better alternatives. The new Honda Civic although a bit more expensive is the better car.

[@Kevin-si1es]

Yes but some people can't afford the civic
