My best mates parents back home has one of these Joe. Very nice motors indeed, they tow a horse box with theirs and when my mates dad is playing a gig in his band, he'll pile the back of it up with amps and speakers. Takes it easily.

Thought that myself! Seems that the bearing on the Kia can't be removed from the shaft that easily. Can't heat it to take it off as it will destroy the housing! So very hard to get one from a scrapped car. There's only one bearing too unlike the Freebie which has two!
He did join a "Kia Forum"
and ask some questions there. Got a part number from there but apparently it's not a UK part! All sounds a bit weird if you ask me and I thought Land Rovers were bad!! I think I have decided on a Disco 3!!
Sat in one other day, and a lovely place to be in!
Cant afford one just yet though..... will wait a few months and save ma pennies I think!
Spoke to my mechanic, said to stay away from Kia Sorento, nice well made he says, but not designed for the rough stuff, they are too soft, will fall apart putting it to the use I do.
For anyone interested, the Disco I saw was a 7 seater, S model or base, had the TR, 48,000 miles, FLRSH for £12,995.
I could afford the price to buy, but need to be more in a position to run it before I commit!
