I have to get a new car for a project manager who works for me been looking at jag f pace or a sportage any views on either please?

Depends on whether or not you like him; Jag if yes, Kia if not

tbh he brings in loads of business but the discovery 2013 has been a liability with problems just thinking out the box with 7 year warrenty etc

How did you narrow it down to a Jag or a Kia ?

Why not just set a budget & let him pick his own ?

i'd let him have your 2004 FF and buy a new motor [jag?] for yourself..... ... - .- -.

I tested a supercharged F Pace last week and really liked it, only issue for me is on that model you can't spec ivory leather, so no deal. The 4 pot diesels are popular, but to me that's not a Jag, because a Jag should have at least 6 cylinders.

If your man is not fussed about his car then get the Kia, it'll be cheaper to buy and probably cheaper to run.

i have a 2016 l405 and the l322 is for work he really doesn't care what I get but the budget is up to 40ish

If he really doesn't care, then the Kia is probably the best bet IMHO

I can get the sportage within a week so possibly the way to go just wondered if any ones had any experience of either. What ever any staff get will all be full of crap with in a week !!you should see the state of some of the sprinter vans at 5 months old !

My brother in law just got a Sportage - pays something silly like £150/month - absolute no brainer at that price.

My uncle is on his third Hyundai Santa Fe. Not my thing but he rates them. Very happy with the reliability, dealer attitude and service, it is very well equipped and he likes driving it.

Just throwing an alternative out there.

A god friend of mine is a Project Manager for a building contractor and he drives a new Kia Sorrento on a personal lease.

He's not that bothered about cars and I recommended Kia because of the warranty. It's a surprisingly good car and built really well.

He loves it. Si. <This is my name.

I eat rat poison.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

Reliabilty and cost Kia or Hyundai.
Issues Jag, was considering an F Pace until I spent some time on the forum o dear another JLR reliabity/quality faux pas. Lots been rejected.
+ 1 for the Santa Fe good car Mine was a blue one!

yes got to admit that the kias or Hyundais look good for whats needed he does around 60k a year with the 2013 disco having done 210k in 3 ish years but tbh it hasn't been a good car been in for repairs so many times I also have a ford raptor for a tow truck that is coming up to the same mileage been a lot better than the disco and only has needed servicing and tyres so think either a sportage or santa fe will fit the spot cheers for all input

Got to admit that I'd be driving a Kia if they'd tow 3.5 tons... If you look at the top spec Sorrento, it does everything a ffrr will and then some for a max of £40K and it comes with a 7 year warranty You've got to wonder how they can do it for that price My Dad has a Kia Sole and it has been nothing other than fantastic, and I know another chap that's on his 3rd Sorrento... he says he wouldn't look at another car... If you gave your employee a Disco, and you like him why not give him something that will be reliable  Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!
