Hi all. Im a recent graduate, and is looking at getting my first car after working for almost 2 years. Im looking for a car that i will only use during weekends in the city, as i spend my weekdays working in an area that doesnt have road connection.

Im looking at getting a Saga LMST, since its cheap, cheap to maintain (cheap spare parts), and cheap to repair (old uncle mechanics like fixing old cars like saga).

I would love to hear any advise about my choice - would you taikos here support, or advice me to get other cars? and if the conception about SAGA LMST (cheap price, cheap to maintain, cheap to fix) holds true.

and finally, for a LMST round 2005-2007, what would the price be like? im seeing from as low as 9800 to 18500. its a bit confusing.

if it's for ocassional weekend use, super cheap, you can't go wrong with iswara smile.gif i doubt any cars in the market today have lower maintenance/repair cost than iswara.

i'm using iswara 99 so i'm not familiar with saga lmst, wait for others to comment.

If i'm not wrong saga lmst 07 model should be between 10k to 15k. I had a thread on tips for buying used cars, maybe you can get some ideas there.

Guys, I what's the market price for the lmst's condenser? I was quoted around RM 400 ++ for a larger condenser than the ori one. Planning to change it since the air conditioning isn't that cold any more.

engine oil does not synchronize. they can be synthetic based.

also, do calculate using avg km/l or liters/100km instead of Malaysian "rm10 how far ah?"

Hi sifus. Also want to ask the same question. For LMST the stock exhaust system is using 4-1 extractor right? Would a 4-2-1 extractor be better for pickup? I'm looking for better pick up especially in the 3rd and 4th gear.

Also any recommendations on the extractor brand and exhaust piping size? Plan to change the set from extractor to piping but want to maintain the original muffler as I don't want any change in the exhaust sound tongue.gif
