Aiyo, how u can compare a 12 years car vs new cheap axia? How much the altis asking?

For toyota car, even is a 12 year altis, is much more comfortable than a perodua.

for al years altis, basically nothing to worry, spare parts are reasonable priced and easy to get.

few thinds u can do,

1. Get a good paint job. The most important in a paint job is sent to a garage with oven and make sure a second layer of protective coat is laid with good qualltytype.

2. If car service regularly, no need to worry, as long as every 7 or 8k km are serviced with at least semi synthetic oil, then forget about overhaul.

3. Mostly, all used cars,  will have oil leaked in engine block, get the engine cover gasket changed, cost about 100.

4. Alternators, conveyor belt, suspension, engine mounting, cooling fan, spark plugs, original air filter, cabin filter, once get changed, ur car is as smooth as new car.

toyota car is reliable.

Perodua Axia is actually a daihatsu, which is also means it is a toyota family member.


so, from your above post it means axia better than 12 years altis because they are both toyota.

your point 2,3 and 4 are valid for any car, even an aged ferrari. so might as well tell him to get any car laugh.gif
