Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at 215,651 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The Optima diesel in Europe is a mid‑size saloon with a torquey diesel engine paired to a manual gearbox — good for long motorway runs but can suffer when used for lots of short urban trips. Important diesel items to watch are the DPF and EGR/turbo components; the original Kia warranty (often 7 years) will be expired on a 2017 car, so any major work will be at your cost.
- DPF regeneration history and soot load – check if it has mostly short urban trips which can block the DPF
- Clutch feel and biting point for slipping or heavy wear (manual gearbox and clutch replacement costs)
- Turbo/EGR operation and any black/blue smoke under acceleration indicating oil or turbo issues
- Transmission syncros and gear selection for crunching or difficulty selecting gears
- Rear suspension and wheel‑arch area for corrosion given Irish climate and road salt exposure
