Hello everyone,
I am Smudgey, a teenager and fellow Kia Forte owner. My car was purchased and subsequently given to me in June 2011 as a used vehicle that had just come off of a six-month lease with someone else - one of about 30 Kia Forte EX sedans sold at Napleton Nissan over several days.
The car was purchased with 6,934 miles and as of today is about to breach 11,000 miles. I cherish my car and wash and maintain it religiously, to say that he (affectionately referred to as 'Cub' because of his Tiger Nose grille) is pampered would be an understatement, haha.
Due to my age (and, by extension, lack of funds and freedom), my car has and will have few modifications. I bought OEM Mudguards a couple of months ago and just today installed a VG II Shark fin. Once I replace my alloy wheels, I will probably call it there... (I don't like to do anything permanent).
Thanks for your time, and I can't wait to become an active member of this forum!
