You'd have to go some to do a gasket
after two years pottering about no matter how roughly you treated it. Manufacturing defect, I'd have thought. Dodgy part or dodgy practice. Not a great sign, either way.

Bollocks off, you're drawing your conclusions based on 1 incident.

And you're attempting to argue with me
based off no knowledge whatsoever.

I'm not attempting, I'm pointing out, quite correctly, that you've based your dislike of a car based on one incident
I'm not saying they aren't shit, but unless you have multiple bits of evidence you're just spouting bollocks.

Well, I'm saying that it'd be tough to break a head gasket
in a two year old car however it was treated. Which is true. The fact that it did go is indicative that something else wasn't up to scratch.

I don't have an opinion on the car.

Yes you do, you ahve clearely indicated that because one possibly defective head gasket made it onto a vehicle
that all Kia head gaskets are shit quality.

OK, yes, I did. Fair enough.
You don't seem to understand that breaking a two year head gasket is hard.

However I will, if it'll make it any better, say again as I did in the first post, that it "could have been a freak accident".

True
any slight coolant leak and someone in the habit of clogging up the motorway at 100 or so every day could probably blow any car though.
