i think u can get a 1993 charade...

i sold my charade in 2004 for 8k

Toyota SE and LE has carb engine or Injection?

hahah.. eveyone looking to get cheap cars nowadays... my advice, know what you're getting into... research and talk to people who've owned it... also, join in discussion with modified groups...

then you'll know what's needed.. and what's a bargain..

Which i believe is very prudent! As other forum members mentioned, one really has to take a good look at the car. It may not be good, but if it can take you from point A to B without much hassle, by all means go for it. Use the money you save to invest or save up for a better car later one when the price crash! It's coming

I bought a 1991 Daihatsu Aura costing RM 5.500 from my uncle last year. The car is in very good condition. I'm very lucky because my uncle maintained the car very well. He always change the motor oil every 5,000 KM religiously...

My advice to anyone who want to buy cheap used car is to buy from someone that you know...and trust...


.

Can get kancil 660M '95-96 5speed for 4-5k. Mine was sold for 4k to used car dealer with a new aircon setup, a new set of 4xbridgestones, basically not much problem except a clearcoat-failure boot paint and a dented front left door but both were sprayed with those clear spray paint in tins, therefore no rust

Lets comment on the bargain cars seen here --> http://www.motortrader.com.my/asp/search/s...%5Fid=26&page=1

tell us ur opinions on those cars.

RM5k... Aiya, 3 months late... I sold my Iswara 1.5MPi(A) (UK-spec) 1995 for RM5,800 only. Repairs?

Just Alignment and balancing... But eating engine oil. Need top overhaul. (Pity next owner) coz what I did, I just top up engine oil every 10 days.

Bought for RM32000 back in 2000, after 8 years = RM5800... But my car's not full spec. That would be "PROTON CARES" (93)... RM5k can get...

Else, can get CITROEN ZX 2.0i for RM5k. 1996 model. SUperb confort and ride/handling. Parts aplenty as it's used as TAXIs in China.

dude..are u planning to sell ur car here??wrong section man..

Last month I helped my cousin to purchased a 1981 Honda Accord 1.6L for RM1,800.

It needs some restoration on its paintwork & good sets of wheels+tyres. Other than that, engine is running perfectly smooth & clean as well. 1st owner from year 1981 until now (2008) then sold to my cousin. My cousin has a project plan for this Accord.

I would like to hear some stories of people who tool the gamble of buying a second hand BMW or Mercedes-Benz when they are only a fresh grad starting work.

i bought ke70 wit no engine rusted paint n body rm500 mod n repair paint also need rm5000... lolxxx

even made a good bargain when selling it
