2010. The point is to know how well the owner takes care of the car. One glance at the engine bay and you'll know whether it's well taken care of or not..
Mana ada 1 year... 2010 lo..

I see. ok, 2010.. noted with thanks smile.gif

But some of those car sellers also cuci the engine bay til cantik cantik n clean clean already.. hard to spot from engine bay if not buy from direct owner
