I do not know what is the market price but for MC5 it sounded low. Cut out the 400 for the rim, the tire only worth 400?

I'm looking to purchase a used Kia Forte 1.6SX very soon  rclxms.gif . Should there be anything I must look out for when inspecting the car hmm.gif ? Will of course bring along a foreman with me to check but I hope to be able to pin point the problems on my own just in case.

Of most reviews I've read so far, nothing states out of the ordinary. To all Kia Forte owners, your input will be much appreciated.  thumbup.gif

Forte is my choice compared to the City & Vios.

Thanks!

which year car?

if still within warranty, if first 2 year from NAZA nvm, if only the remaining only extended warranty from insurance company, please check the maintenance and service record.

even slightly late or slightly exceed mileage for service will void your warranty from insurance panel.

Bro, just some additional tips..
Check to see if the car has been flooded before (i.e. - caught in a flash flood like what happened in Puchong a few months back this year).

This is just my 2-cents. Happy hunting/buying smile.gif

it actually made buying nice used car quite scary sweat.gif

btw...i also using MC5.

really senyap. at 120kmh; on certain road, wind noise is more noticeable than the tyre noise... (if u trust me la..  rolleyes.gif )

just change recently? wind noise become obvious and loud after change tyre. stock really no good.
really great improvement with MC5 even it is biasa biasa tyre only.


now i cannot satisfy with MC5 already after 10K mileage, when sudah biasa with the comfort and low noise, now heart keep looking for lower noise and better comfort.

last time i oso keep holding myself until 8K mileage sweat.gif

ur car still new and feel wow..
if u dont tukar and feel the better comfort, wait till 1 yr or 2 yr only change. really no syok feeling anymore.
more u delay, lower ur stock tyre trade in. brows.gif
unless u travel a lot, <1 yr can finish the tyre thread.

looking at the good side, 2-3 years later maybe change new car already. save on tyre. wub.gif
