#1 of 10 '99 kia sportage..worth it? by lestat78us

Mar 07, 2006 (11:21 am)

I saw a 99 sportage with 72k on the engine. There is some minor body work to be done and needs a new heater core. Is $2000 a fair price or is there something wrong that I'm missing? Also, anybody know how reliable these things are?

I recommend asking in the Kia Sportage 2005+ discussion (some current owners may be familiar with older models). Be sure to check out our TMV new car prices, used car pricing, used car values at Edmunds feature.

My father wants to know what it would take to put a Chevy Luv diesel engine into a kia sportage. The engine in the Sportage likes to break timing belts so he wants a new one

I own a 99 sportage...It has less than 60,000 miles on it for a reason....I wish I would have read the website "Dont buy a Kia" before I bought it......HUGE MISTAKE!!!
