If you plan to drive long distance... New saga have its perks like warranty. buy, drive and go.

Almera i say only go with the 2015 models onwards. Just save some extra money to change the suspensions set (whatever thats connected to it), Spark plugs, tuneup and cleaning of throttle body. The rest is just change oils. as after 100k km/4 years normal wear and tear.

After warranty general maintenance Almera is cheaper. For parts of course proton is more affordable.

Space and comfort Almera. Driver feel & pickup Proton. Test drive then decide yourself
