Personally get a good condition Kelisa or Kenari, parts are cheap and easy to be fix by any mechanic. Axia lately my mechanic got few come back for major service, the parts are more expensive than Kelisa/Kenari. Especially engine if spoilt, 2nd hand use half-cut near to 5k just the Axia 1.0 engine.

sure onot... getting gud axia is ady tough.. finding gud kelisa/kenari definitely much harder..
any engine spoilt is confirm few k ady.. no matter what car..
just a matter of how one treat their car..

am using axia since 2015 and I think many more ppl using much longer than that so far no engine issue..
just make sure service on time and use proper engine oil lor... just like any other car..

Do you need this car immediately?

If can delay, then wait until the launch of EV from both P1 and P2. Then you will have a field day choosing lower priced pre-loved cars, I think.

I personally think, if you can maintain your car service on time, its worth every single cent. If aint broken dont fixed it.Keeping it under good condition also one of the factor you need to thinks as well considering that parts and labour price. Which it is, based on my understading.
