  1. Seven is excellent, good that you kept a count
  2. I guess only around 3-5 donkey (Sorry DFSK) 580 owners in Sri Lanka exist and I have seen one on the road. Strange thing is nearly 50% of the owners are in this forum
  3. How strange, not an owner and not from UML, and interested in some unknown sh#t. And the write up.
  4. I think that bus was sponsored by Micro. I remember whe it was initially launched we could see peoples legs from outside
  5. Vitara will have a higher depreciation say in2 years time. So if you are ok with a lower re sale value versus slight reduction in rear space go for it
  6. Saw similar one that looked like a Jeep Wrangler from the front at Hokandara today morning,
  7. Do I smell a doctor from UML doing some guerilla marketing
  8. Thnx
  9. I manually change gears in traffic to prevent frequent shifting, specially up shifting. Will that help or will that increase wear and tare?
  10. Hi guys Simple question, what are the options to prevent rodents getting in to the car. During last two months they have eaten wire harnesses in my car twice. My problem is I cant use any poison pellets as my dogs roam around the garden and garage. Thnx in advance
  11. I thought the maintenance minder is based on no of Km or days from last service.
  12. I know few people who do the oil change etc from the agent so that they can put "Agent maintained" but all other maintenance is done from outside with cheap part and duplicates. I sold my mazda more than one year back with 40K on the clock. Would you believe its now on sale is the fast site with 42.5K reading and agent maintained ? the guy has only run 2500K in 15 months. 166Km per month. Considering the round trip from Kany - Colombo - Kandy for agent service i presume he mustv used the car to purchase bread at Handiye Kade. So in short, agent maintained is no really something to bank upon.
  13. two vehicles selected indicate investment purpose rather than the utility. in current context buying a vehicle as an investment is not advisable, even KDH
  14. I would think your vehicle real mileage would be more than 80K. Have you changed transmission and clutch oil.
  15. I would stop at microfiber cloth
  16. Well i now drive a Audi A5. However i regret letting go of my Mazda because of sheer driving pleasure it gave me compared to the Audi. I did not have an issue in selling my 2016 car. Of course i did have to take a hit compared to my purchase price but thats depreciation

    Toyota Vitz 2016

    Doesn't the Vitz have a oil burning issue after 100K, not sure but saw it somewhere.
  18. keep additional cash in hand, especially for clutch replacement if you decide to buy
  19. Call Ranjan Ramanayake
  20. ? that's why most cars come with reverse sensors and optional revers cam. and not this bird shit
  21. Wow, normally issue comes after 75K are you sure you changed DCD oil
  22. Dont know about Honda, but in my Audi - heated mirrors are useless unless you are in Nuwaraeliya i guess.
  23. My two dogs were no help. Last week they have eaten the wires of Air Bag sensors and took one day ant 5K to replace
  24. Bought one in 2015 (2014 manufactured) , sold in 2018 did 84,000/-. No issues at all and only brake pads, battery and tires was changed. (Stafford maintained) Cheap vehicle to maintain and run. Only thing is it very uncomfortable, specially the rear seats. DCD failure is a very high probability, fuel consumption was 13-14 Kmpl on average. Reticently Vezels seem to be loosing value pretty fast. I guess if you have spare cash for a dual clutch unit replacement only you should go for this.
