Guys, I am considering to buy yaris full spec at 83888.
But saw carlist have some selling cerato new 1.6 at 83k...

Considering a few factors such as
Reliability
Resale value


Based on the two factor which will be a better buy yeah? And I know both cars are in a different segment, but just need some input


Ps: bootspace is not a concern, and will be hardly used as a 'outstation' car

Thanks alot

If you are looking at features , Kia Cerato is definately a value buy, being a C segment car, and loaded with :

Multimedia Infotainment System with Built-in GPS
Auto Climate control
Start-stop button
Smart Key
Audio Remote Control on Steering Wheel with bluetooth
Drive Mode select (Eco, Sport , Normal)
6 SRS Airbags
Active Head Rest
6 Speed Auto Transmission
Paddle Shifter
Rear Display Room Mirror (Reverse Camera)
Electro-Chromic mirror (ECM)
Cruise Control
Impact sensing door unlocking
Driver Seat Height adjustment
Puddle lamp & pocket Lighting
10 way power driver seat
Memory Seat
Black Glossy bezell Radiator Grille
Projector Halogen head lamp with Fog Lamps & DRL
17" Alloy Wheels
Auto Head Light /Escort Head Light
Front brake - Ventilated Disc, rear - Solid Disc
Tyre 215/45R17
LED Side Mirror with auto folding
UV Cut Windshield
Chrome Door Handle
4 point Parking Assist Front Sensors
ABS (Anti-lock braking system)
EBD (Electronic Brake Force System)
TCS (Traction Control System)
BAS (Brake Assist System)
ESC (Electronic Stability Control)

U alrdy got the answer

comparing a c segment against a b segment at any given time, c segment usually will be at upper hand.

Reliability - Both cars are reliable
Resale Value - might be Yaris since it's a Toyota

any owners here changed their headunit?
any recommendations?
mine is the 1st batch of skd cerato, small HU

Sometime back, there was this WinCE touch screen head unit in the market for upgrade. But I don't think there is any more stock since the new facelifted K3 now comes with built-in large head unit.

Besides that, you can also consider the original K3 head unit from Naza, but the price is quite steep, somewhere between 4-5K if not mistaken.

Even branded ones are much cheaper. Naza hiked up too much

anyone facing folding side mirror issue?

hi @Buydirect, do your outlet sell cerato door visor / rain guard? what models you have ? i prefer a narrow n small type

still waiting for new 2019 Kia Cerato..

any offers on car parts during august ?

time for me to change brake pads

Anyone know any accessories shop that sells Cerato LED Headlights in Klang Valley area?
Been searching for quite some time but unable to find 1.

So sorry, already out of stock and haven't restock. Door visor is no longer a trend these days.

hi, I'm planning to get 2013 secondhand kia cerato demo unit with 40k+ mileage. May I know how much servicing fee would cost per year? and is the spec expensive?

On average, if you service at every 10,000 km or every 6 months interval, the total cost for 2 Times service in a year will add up to about RM1000 to RM 1200 per year or every 20,000 km. However, since a 2013 unit warranty has ended, you can choose to service it outside and it is a lot cheaper.

thanks for answering. one more question, why some cerato has k3 label on the back of the car while some don't?
