I am looking for a 2nd car preferably not P1 or P2

Some models I have in mind.. please advise which is worthy or any other brands

Year: 2014 and above

Models:
Lexus CT100H (I can chage battery as it is around 8k only)
Mazda CX-5
Honda CRV
Toyota Corolla Altis

Thanks in advance

altis, crv and cx5 doesnt suits 'leisure ride'. lol. they are daily workhorse btw

CX5 or CRV in my opinion. Lexus got battery cost coming. Altis, shape and tech kinda dated.

Lexus CT200h battery costs around 8k all including installation from service center...

civic 1.5T?

Will add it to the list

Why do you want to incur and incoming cost of 8K. If you use this cost for petrol, service for the other cars, how many years can 8K last you.

Given the battery average life span is 8 - 10 years, but you wont use this 2nd car that long anyways as its second hand now as well ( some years being used ).

Leisure ride...VW Beetle or Merz A-Class for me.

Crv

RM8k can get about 2 years worth of petrol @ 36k km

budget?

average 2nd price for Lexus CT200h around 60K and you wanna spend more than 10% on it? It's like going to buy a car that the engine has to be overhauled

70k la

depends on wat u look for & what's ur priority.

if wan good fc & fun to drive, mazda.
cheap maintenance parts, honda.
old tech proven to last, toyota.

lexus checks non of the boxes above.

2nd car or second hand car?

Toyota altis is quite nice. Sat in one, it gave me a good impression

get CX5 2.5 Japan CBU.
then spare some budget for soundproofing then would be perfect.
Bose speakers somemore

Both purposes

plenty of options, but you do have to narrow down whether you need an SUV or a sedan

Which year they stopped bringing in CBU units ?

Mercedes slk 200

Precious gen Lexus GS300 or IS250.

volvo suv

Golf GTI ftw

get a bike... harley 48..

No way..risky

how you determine whether it is a leisure ride or a daily workhorse?

All the 2.5 version is the highest spec Japan CBU.

But over ts budget

CX-5 should be good enough.

More expensive 8-10k.
Get bigger rims, Bose surround sound. Better headlamp

80k can get? Biar betik

Owait. 70k below also got d

maibi

falali oso have to give way

err Altis is not the race car , try Toyota 86

no conti cars?

new or used also ok?
budget?

2nd car mostly is for "yourself" only.
get a driver centric car where you can enjoy the drive.
