buying used car involved additional processing fee, insurance and puspakom charges.

i haven't mentioned much higher interest rate. also, definitely you need additional RM5k easily to change the tear and wear parts in a old car; when the car mileage is exceeding 200k mark.

do not expect 0 repair on used car.

buying rm33k axia auto is a much wiser choice.

Tq for the advice.. im still in doublt .. bcoz im kind of big.. axia is not suitable for me...

SlamberGamer of course when used car get the car they will clean the engine bay, change to the new tyre and so on... but who knows the real problem when u drive the car for a few months or maybe week...

its not engine bay.. its the inside engine when we open the engine cap.. it look very shiny.. i dono maybe the owner just overhaul the car or what.. or just very well maintained
