Great review , in Portugal only German cars are considered great, but there are alternatives. I would like to see more interior images of the back seat space.

Great review Bob, always enjoy your good honest reviews. It would be nice if you could have a drive around the Westport and Castlebar areas would bring back a few nice memories for me!

+stendec Stretcher I was over there earlier in the year. I love Westport and the surrounding area.

Hi Bob, really enjoy your videos. You seem to automatically pick up on and highlight the things about cars that I imagine are important to most of us. You also cover a wide range of vehicles, something for everyone I suspect! Cheers man, keep up the good work. tony

[@BobFlavinVideo]

Thanks Tony, I do try to review a car from the user experience.

This looks so much better than the sedan. It looks more balanced. Too bad we do not get these estates in the US.

[@patkelly7999]

Great as always Bob, food for thought, and this is from a vw fan :)

Kia is closing in

[@AndrewKNI]

Classy car and good review. Thanks Bob.

Bob, I like you're sort of rambling style of reviewing but please include more in dept analysis. Were the larger than usual tyres a problem with comfort?how was the infotainment system and SAT nav ? was the level of kit better than a similar priced Mondeo or i40?

Production for the Optima SW PHEV starts in april.

Diesel still emits less co2 and thus the simplistic Irish (and other EU zone) tax laws favour diesel. cheaper fuel also helps sway as everyone over estimates their mileage and future mileage in their new car..We now know actual diesel emissions even with adblue exhaust treatment are way over the test results. Petrol engines are getting lighter (Ford ecoboost 3cyl) whereas work on modern diesel's are to make is less truck noisy, rough and disposed to not failing in urban driving. Note not many hybrids/phev are allowed to tow.... If you are towing, 4WD would be a better choice

[@charliegutierrez8728]

I want one of these.

[@TheMiniatureScenes]

Looks class. Kia will outshine Audi and BMW yet!

[@noeleenobrien6145]

Hi bob really thinking of buying a optma s w for a taxi,? Bought a Octavia combie 141 on your recommendation, should I stay with skoda

[@asifhecares]

Hi Bob, how would you say the Optima fares against the Superb?

[@jimquinn6296]

Bob, did you do a review of the Niro yet?

[@danhamjam]

Amazing isn't it, all people wanted was diesel, diesel, diesel now its swinging back to petrol. Crazy world.

[@fmsantoscar]

I can never get the mpg in a petrol car than what i get in a diesel even in stop and go city traffic.....I'm talking about a new diesel engine...not a diesel engine from 10 years ago....plus diesel is cheaper than petrol in Sweden

[@francismcnulty2195]
