Planning to get a 2nd hand car to get me to work from PJ to KL/Shah Alam, since my previous Citra got stolen.
Got an RM25k budget. Not too particular about AT or MT. I've seen a couple of choices:
1. 2007 1.2 Savvy MT
2. 2005 1.3 Getz AT
3. 2004 1.1 Picanto AT
4. 2004 1.3 Kia Rio AT
Any thoughts on the above? Or should I look for something else with my budget?
U may wanna get AT since driving manuals in KL is a chore n tiring. I would pick the Picanto 1.1. If u want boot space, go for the Kia Rio.

1. Proton Persona/Honda City
2. 60k+-
3. New/Used(+-5 years car)
4. Specs.
5. Automatic
6. ??
7. Sedan
8. Fuel Save; long term car, will not change another new car in 5 to 10 years time
I would wanna pick the used honda city for this case. U should know u never know what happen to most Proton cars 5 years and above.

The honda city saves fuel better than persona so pick a good unit and u will do fine.

If u love driving, pick the persona. If u gonna carry 5 people n lots of luggage, the alza will do fine.

wanna hear all tai lou2 opinions,
with average of 2.7k per month, is it normal to buy a 70k 2nd hand car?..this is my 1st exp to buy a car since just started working 4 7 month..
If there no downpayment or min downpayment of 7k only then i advise u not too. My rule of max 1/4 of ur salary for car installment so u only can go max 700 per month for installments.

1. Brand : Proton Saga BLM m-line or Proton Persona b-line
2. Budget : 40 - 50k
3. New/Used/Unreg : new
4. Specs : Full Spec
5. Transmission : AT
6. NA or FI : ??
7. Type : sedan
8. Remarks :
Not sure which one to pick. Price wise, I like the saga. But Persona more powerful and looks nicer. Which one would be more value for money? Is saga more comfortable to drive?

If u looking for comfort n power, the persona has a better advantage. Not to mention more spacious n space than the saga.
