PROUDLY WORKING WITH
When Kia first started making cars in the mid-1980's, their quality was questionable. Now, this Korean brand is well-known for their reliability, stylish design and great build quality.
Even though Kia offers a 7-year warranty as standard on their vehicles, every driver must do their part to ensure their car remains reliable. The most important thing you can do is book a Kia service regularly.

Should I Book a Manufacturer Service for My Kia?
While a manufacturer service is the go-to for many Kia drivers, it doesn’t have to be your only option. Booking a service through BookMyGarage or SecretServiceTM is an equally valid option which may provide more value in the long run.
Here is a comparison of the three types of car service to help you choose the right option, based on the needs of your vehicle:
Manufacturer Service
- Prices vary, but can be more expensive
- Limited but necessary checks
- Manufacturer approved parts & oils used
- Specialist technicians
- Protects warranty
- Carried out at a franchised dealership
- Service book stamped

Kia Service and MOT
You can save yourself both time and money when you book your Kia's MOT and service together. While there is no legal obligation to book a car service, you must have a valid MOT at all times to drive on public roads in the UK. When you book the two together, your vehicle will always get the level of care and attention it deserves.
Plus, many Kia garages offer a significant discount on your MOT when you book it alongside a car service. This gives you the best deal and makes your car maintenance as stress-free as possible.
