I assume u must travel a lot since you're sales person, hence i think you'll need a low Fuel Consumption car.

But there's plenty of selection with your stated budget..

Honda City I-VTEC - Better performance than the I-DSI model, hence higher FC compare to I-DSI model.
Honda City I-DSI -  Best fuel consumption among all of these three cars.
Toyota Vios
Toyota Altis

No idea on both Toyota cars...  sweat.gif

I would suggest u to look into the 2006~2008 model of Honda City, the I-DSI model for it's low FC. Best choice for those sales person that travel a lot with their car  icon_rolleyes.gif

Remember to check all over the car before making any purchasing, best if u test drive it !

Hope this helps..  icon_rolleyes.gif

My sis is 26 years old and looking for her working car (also same as me, sales ppl) with budget around 50K++, the following is the brand & car in her mind.


2nd hand
Toyota Vios G spec (2004)
Honda City VTEC (2004)
Nissan Sentra 1.6 (2004/05)

New
Proton persona 1.6 M/H-Line (manual/AT)

Remarks: Auto/Manual is doesn’t matter for her as long as SAVE OIL.

She did not consider about proton saga blm & myvi, since both cars are too common & under power for her. ( as what she told me tongue.gif)

As what we always consider is FC, performace,maintenance cost…etc. she travels a lot in Highway & City, sometimes even outstation…a reliable car is very important for her… nanti d car break down suddenly she also don’t know how especially kat outstation… rclxub.gif

Previously she was thinking to buy viva 660 by cash so that can jimat interest. But end up she had changed her mind & increase budget for her next ride. Coz viva 660 is under power for her blush.gif


Please advice this lady. With little money but demand a lot sweat.gif . Thanks smile.gif

Get the Elegance.

Because once u bought the older Persona, the value drop instantly once u got the car keys.

Of course the Elegance value drops too, but not that much compared to older model.

I've booked one unit Elegance wink.gif

The price difference is definitely bang for bucks, get the H line for more safety features like ABS,EBD and leather seat / trim drool.gif
