Thank you for your support @iRage. Yes I checked from carchek. This is a registered car, CAV number. The photo was taken while number plate removed for changing new number plate with province change. Sure I will start new thread for the car.

Thank you very much for your advice and support given. I bought a second hand Toyota aqua car. Please see photo.

Swift hybrid Rs 2017 or Toyota (either vitz 2018 or aqua 2015)

How is your experience over using swift for considerable period? Will it be worth to buy a swift 2017 over Toyota car?

Thank you 😊. Still I am looking for a good one. Preferably swift RS hybrid, meanwhile if I found good aqua, I will go for that 😁🙂

Thank you 🙏

Thanks for your valuable answer... Btw is there various models in Suzuki swift RS 2017 hybrid? 😁🙂

Considering the opinions received from experts and the information gathered through other sources I am thinking of going for Suzuki swift RS model. May be mild hybrid 1300 model or 1000 turbo model. Any specific attention should I pay when selecting swift car? ( Reasons I am not going for vitz , it's slightly overpriced for available features and car could have been over used in Japan/ not going for aqua, difficult to find well maintained car, most available cars manufactured in 2015 which means 8 years old and there could be issues in hybrid battery and ABS /not going for fit gp5 , difficult to find good car,most available cars manufactured in 2015 which means 8 years old and DCT issues could be there) Thanks

This is so informative. Thank you very much. I have seen several fake adds claiming vitz safety 3 edition 3 , 2018.

Can I know whether there is vitz safety edition 3 car manufactured in 2018? I have seen adds claiming edition 3 made in 2018. Btw is there any benefit over paying premium for edition 3? Thanks 😊

Hi is there any specific tyre brand which is fitted in vitz cars when importing from Japan?.I have seen most lower mileage vitz equipped with Yokohama while few had bridgestone tyres. Any idea about average life time ( in terms of km) for factory fitted tyres?

Is there a relationship between colour and price of a second hand vehicle?

Thanks 🙏.. I am looking for buying my first car. That's the reason I am thinking of too much. Most available aquas are above 75k mileage. Few vitzs are available with low mileage. I got to know that the engine of vitz is noicy and low power due to three cylinder 990 cc engine. Whereas aqua has 1490cc engine and motor. My weekday travelling may be arround 25 KM and weekend it is arround 300 KM.

Is it worth to buy aqua/ Prius C 2014 manufactured car with 130,000 KM mileage for personal use? (Battery has been replaced)

Thank you very much 😊

What is the different between Toyota vitz 2016 led and safety 1 package? Is it worth to buy aqua/ Prius C 2014 manufactured car with 130,000 KM mileage for personal use? (Battery has been replaced)

Will vehicle prices come down further as the $ rate movement are favourable?

Thank you for valuable comment. Understood your point. Best thing is to check the service history 🙂

Yes. There's a point

Doubt whether old horse may experience frequent repairs compared to new pony 🐴🐎

Is it worth to buy a older car with high specifications ( before 2015, say old axio/premio/civic/Audi a1 ) or new car with ( after 2017, say new vitz/wagon R) with low specifications. Say the budget is same.

Hi all , I am planning to buy a car arround 7.5 m budget. My usage pattern will be once / twice a month long distance about 350km, and weekend short distance ( arround 20Km) travel with mild traffic, weekdays the car will mostly be idle. I will use the during weekdays very rarely. I prefer the car to be not older than 2015. Reasonable fuel economy and considerable low maintenance cost also preferred. I don't mind whether sedan or hatchback,the design, and available space. Not an issue whether hybrid or petrol. But resale value is considered. I have just saw these cars, Vitz Gp5 Wagon R Axio Kia Picanto Aqua Civic Swift I much appreciate your ideas on suitable car for me. May be one car among above or any other car. Thank you in advance.
