1. Brand : any

6. NA or FI :
7. Type : sedan
8. Remarks : save fuel, safe and low maintenance fees. first car, few yrs experience regular driving short/long distance. highly likely will upgrade as financial gets better

so basically what car should i get cheap cheap i can settle in 3 years

tq!

how about hyundai i10.

size wise viva < i10 < myvi
but 4star NCAP airbags all inside.. safety wise this is the best among all 3..
handling also better
Kappa engine 1.25cc good pick up
FC a bit on hi side, can get 10L/km
maintenance also abit hi..

2010 onwards can get 20 -25k thats like 50% of the new price.
is that cheap? but memang korean car low RV because less popular

ok or not? never sit on one though..

mind sharing how much u get? see on the road not very common, quite nice i think.. what makes u choose i10 over anything else?

I put a range there how come u say exactly that price? Haha
Yea.. Never test drive..
What makes u like it above all else?

hi its me again..

im thinking to buy a car, cash around 7k..

fr what ive researched i can get 15yrs wira
summore ive used a wira for a few yrs before.. but for a car that old, is there any limitation to it i should consider?

planning to use it for few yrs before upgrade to better car..

i understand i will need some maintenance i should always keep 1k cash in hand to replace whatever there is to be replaced.

is this wise or i should get better car with bank loan..

pls advise.. tq

bump..

any body care to shed some light?
ppl around me some say ok some say not...
still confused

i think we all are more or less in the same shoes lar..

first i went to book a new kimchi compact car.

n then i book a 2001 wira.

then i settled for the wira

how about u?

around my budget.. 7k+

condition

exterior new paint,
no noticeable weird sounds,
although still not satisfied yet i never get to see underneath.. u know all kind of metal rubber connection down there..

interior pretty bad
plastics disintegrated here n there, loosening parts aircond vents also bad bad
seat also koyak in few places

spent 200+ so far for service beltings n tayar balancing alignment. planning for grounding works soon.
got engine ok ady then only take care of the cosmetics.
if i want to that is. otherwise pretty good so far i would say

haih what to do, the thrill of taking care of old buddy

good luck on ur car hunting

About the price also in any online market

Bought it from tct automotive sri kembangan. U can find a thread people complaining about it. Mine included

My friends see the car they said OK LA, in fact they are the one influencing me making this decision. Just do sufficient preventive maintenance OK dy. But no gaya LA, haha

Hopefully we will be together for long time

yeah got one already..

thanks for all ur advice, ur blog also very informative adressing my kind of requirement.

thank u again
