Will be getting a car a few months time,budget is less than RM40k,any recommendation for a good car which is not very high in fuel consumption and maintenance as well.Don;t mind a manual but an auto is preferable.Prefer something less or equivalent t0 1.6cc.

Thanks.

Are you single? Do you mind going for 2 doors hatchback? What about the Satria GTi? A used unit will cost you from RM20k+ to RM30k plus depend on age and condition. If not you can try to hunt for some good condition used 1.5/1.6 Wira. smile.gif

Yeap.I do intend to fetch abt 3-4 passengers at times and travel frequently with luagages.
I'm pretty sure.

It's written there:

Hyundai Getz Fully Imported 2 doors
RM43,XXX*

*Price OTR without insurans

Anyhow,that;s an auto.
I;ve driven a Getz 1.3 Manual in Perth,power wise is ok.Spacious and plenty of leg room.

Then the Getz is quite a steal for that price. thumbup.gif

But the Satria GTi is a hot item for car thieves, right?  For the spare parts?

I know, but does that stop anyone to buy cars such as Harrier, Storm, Frontier, Murano and etc that are most popular in car thieves list as well? For a budget of RM40k only, a good condition used unit of those is the most wise choice. The Satria/Wira are cheap and easy to maintain in the long run. Or else used Waja/Gen2/Perdana is the 2nd option which cost more.

If your considering satria then go for the new NEO then because so far I didn't hear much complaints about the NEO considering its from PROTON. Haha...

Don't have to get the H-LINE neo tho..manual one is good enough but the interior space would not fit your requirements.

But isnt that exceeded the 40k budget? Unless the TS still got some room for his financial budget and dont mind for another 10k extra. rolleyes.gif
