I'll try and deal with your issues in order:

  1. Image:Kia Ceed gray front.jpg is simply not going to survive a challenge to its fair use justification. According to Wikipedia's Non-free content policy, "Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." Since the Kia cee'd has now been available for about eight months, your claim that it is not replaceable is patently false. When one person abuses our fair use policies like this, it makes it more difficult for everyone else, so please do not be disruptive. You will notice that I did not tag Image:Kia soul.jpg for deletion, as it is a concept vehicle, and not yet available to the public. You see the difference?
  2. The WP Manual of Style is very specific on the issue of forcing thumbnail sizes: "Specifying the size of a thumb image is not recommended". Remember that many users have small screens (WP is designed to be viewed on PDAs, web-enabled phones, etc), and users can also set image sizes in their user preferences. Forcing the size of the thumbnail, especially to something like 300px or greater, forces them to view images according to your personal preference. This is why it is recommended not to do so.
  3. User:Zdenka Hersak Krizman was correct to tag Hyundai as {{unreferenced}}, as there are no cited sources to support the content of the page, in violation of WP Key policy #6: "Add only information based on reliable sources." You should not have removed the tag, you should have found sources to support the content.
  4. Your edits to the various MMC images were, frankly, childish and disruptive to make a point. As with the Kia Soul image, these were concept vehicles not available to the public. Further, in the case of Image:Mitsutech banner.jpg, you marked it as replaceable fair use when in fact it was a free image. This is vandalism.
  5. Similarly, your edits to Mitsubishi Motors were equally disruptive. In the event that these issues escalate further, your conduct in these matters will count against you, as you will not have demonstrated (a) a willingness to work within WP policies and guidelines, or (b) an ability to work with other editors in a constructive fashion.
