I had a fantastic experience with Select and can't speak highly enough of Adam Brooks. When I first spoke to Adam I had an idea of the car I wanted but my priority was a short lead time. Adam took the time to talk through what factors were important to me in my choice of car and gave me several different options - including some I wouldn't have thought of. He was incredibly responsive and kept me updated throughout the whole process. I've already recommended Adam to a colleague and would have no hesitation in recommending Select and using them again.

Small SUVs are some of the hottest cars in the country right now, and just about every manufacturer has something to offer prospective customers. The Stonic is Kia’s entry, and it trades on plenty of features as standard, sporty handling and some smart looks. Sure, some rivals have more interior space and a more comfortable ride, but Kia’s banking on the fact that your heart will go for the Stonic’s jazzy image and overrule any interjections from your head. Those that follow the heart are unlikely to be disappointed with the Stonic, as there’s plenty to like about it, although when it comes to small SUVs, it’s always worth checking out the opposition, as there are some very good rivals.
