I see price all cheap2 below rm10k pun ada. Worth to buy for used as 2nd car or pasar malam car or not? Mentenen kos tinggi? Hard to jaga?

And rekemen me a model.

When you go for old cars, you need money to replace wear and tear parts.

Yes, spare parts are lots but you still need money to buy it.

I used to own old Benz, never ending problem with power steering pump, pneumatic pump, brake pump, brake booster etc. It does come with spare part kits, but quality is soso, other problems are radiator cracked, bearing broken, rubber brittle, leaking rain water, petrol smell, engine mounting, screw broke on engine, aircon compressor kong.... That's just part of the story. And the worst was rust, and shops really dunno how to stop it even with antitrust coating. The old metal they use is not like nowadays tin milo. So more difficult for bodyshop to work with.

I got de-rust my old car before. I think why de-rust doesn't work.

Cuz when it rust kawkaw on one side, the other side of the sheet metal also rust.

Yes it rust on both sides of the metal, you can only stop it from rusting if the other side is clean

Yeap because JPJ charged per cc.. imagine S320 (3199cc) is 400cc more and the roadtax cost is RM3050.. S350 (3499) roadtax is RM4380

100L so you no need to refuel so frequent laugh.gif

based on OP looking for continental car price below rm10k,
so i say the W201 will be more than $10k

got one advertised in mudah for rm79k,

should have bought years ago when was less interest for this model, especially the cosworth

Can. But the wiring and electronics will fail first.

Buy cheap, and spend another RM 16k for 1JZ upgrade and another RM 4k for minor repairs. Still better than brand new car.

Old conti need love and faith want, else sure complain no power, not fast, rust, sini rosak there rosak, spare parts mahal, air con not cold enough, ....

Play Conti car must have at least some knowledge, where to source parts (cheap and good), then need bengkel support. else you buy liao, then above complain all keluar, money burnt, then cakap conti tak sedap play.

some ppl play shoik shoik, W201 play till W211, then play E30 till E60, less complain, because people got jalan and kangtao and also LUCK.

6k W124 can buy lah, but expectation need put very low, anytime will breakdown halfway, or manja.

90's Merc is the most reliable car, running in tough conditions in Mongolia and UAE even.
E36 BMW have great handling, good build quality and generally reliable as well.

Talking about play conti car mindset:

i use Alfa Romeo 156 selespeed 2.0 as example.

1)Alfa car seat/driving position = Normal people cakap weird,
but you cakap its Alfa characteristic.

2)Gasket keep burn = Normal people cakap not reliable,
but you need to cakap its designed like this, and you dont mind to repair.

3)Overheat = Normal people already start want get rid it,
but you tell you wife, pratice monitor the Temp gauge frequently, old Alfa Romeo last time lagi susah jaga, this one still a good one

4)timing belt, gearbox (selespeed) = Normal people wont buy anymore, and will demotivate other people too.
You still tell your friend, the engine really powerful, and sound good, gearbox dont play so much, slow and steady drive, if gearbox kong, i got workshop can help you....

Normal people = Japanese car, PPAG.
Conti Car Kaki = Always have solution, no matter how bad the situation. smile.gif
