A FERNDOWN-based car dealership is supplying a free Kia to a Poole family – to celebrate their baby’s arrival in a Kia Carens car.
Baby Kia, whose parents intended to call her Tilley, couldn’t wait to get into Poole Hospital before making her entrance into the world.
Kia Motors (UK) Ltd offered the couple a new car after reading about Kia’s speedy arrival and subsequent name in the Daily Echo.
The newly registered 2009 top-of-the-range seven-seat Kia Carens is valued at £17,995.
Mum Samantha Smyth said: “I’m just so chuffed. At the moment we only have a four-seat car so this will mean we can get the family about in comfort.
“Thank you to Kia for arriving and to Kia for the car!”
