With 30-40k, looks like you're going for '12 model if I'm not wrong. Hmmm

Correct sir , from paper it does seemed to ticked a lot of boxes such as equipments, safety , ride and handling , good performance, spacious and looks good( IMHO ). Hence at this price range , it does looks like a pretty good bargain ,on paper at least. Only question left is how reliable the car is and how’s the maintenance like for the car , which is the reason I started this thread and I appreciate all your inputs smile.gif

Got battery problem one for ‘19 model.
New car bought less than 2 weeks, new battery (changed) cannot start at all. Bring back to service centre check, after 2 days cannot start again. Bring back to service centre for third time only can start.

yes, in this case I would rather drive a "boring" but get the job done car that get me from A to B any day,
than a "fun" car but gives me lots of headache. Thanks all for the advise smile.gif

Which car are you going for? Peugeot?
Most local cars are good enough, if you want to get job done

Trust me on this, VW is much easier to maintain compared to Peugeot sweat.gif

My peugeot has been in and out of workshop for few times every month since oct 2019. The VW last workshop visit was July 2019.

Once the MCO ends immediately the Peugeot needs to be towed to workshop to have it worked on, VW also have to visit workshop as well but only some issue that does not immobilise the car and still can be used now during mco period.

PS: VW can get many quality OEM parts, Peugeot not so much, u have to stick to the originals

Heard that Peugeot and workshop always come along lots of problem will rise one after another and their maintenance ain't cheap either

I've a friend that was a Peugeot owner, never seen his car before everytime we went out for a drink, btw he bought a secondhand Peugeot he said it's cheap so why not

End up selling it at a loss including maintenance throughout his ownership
