I am going to graduate from my uni and have to purchase my first car to get around with pretty tight budget. I desperately need help on this.

1. Brand : Any other than kancil.
2. Budget : around 20k plus minus 5k
3. New/Used/Unreg : used
4. Specs : Standard
5. Transmission : Manual
6. NA or FI : NA
7. Type : Compact
8. Remarks : If possible, no earlier than year 2000. Good FC is very important even if its a 2nd hand car. Low maintainance.

Have you got any suggestion ?

roundedfly,

I mean to say basic model, which is the J model / version / spec. This costs around RM 72k.



Added on March 23, 2010, 7:11 pmI'd check out the Kelisa 1.0 . But this car is not being manufactured anymore.

If you are willing to increase the installment a bit and get a loan of 9 yrs, the Viva is my all time favourite small city car. My wife paid RM 500/ month.

Savvy is good also but the maintenance is high thanks to the renault engine. It is a very good car but there is a lack of qualified mechanics in Malaysia for this technology. I used to have 1. I enjoyed driving it up and down from KL to Penang.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

Does buying a car that has stopped manufacturing actually cause much trouble ?

Like the spare part and all will it be difficult to find and expensive even if its found ?

Cheers.
