Buying a car at a time when prices are artificially inflated
RoughRider replied to RoughRider's question in Car Buying Information
Spot on iRage?? Current scenario is purely a result of SPECULATION created by those crooks who want "Happy Endings" & is temporary till the hype is over? (simple economics) If Im a buyer, I would invest the additional amount I pay for a "culprit" car sale guy (say 01 mil) in share market (which is performing brilliantly right now) & earn a sizeable return till the car prices return to normalcy within a short period of time? Use your brain, not emotions & be patient till you get the fair price for the vehicle you wanna buy? -

So pathetic & unethical to see how these so called "Car sale owners" are manipulating the prices of vehicles which they have already imported. These crooks try to make super profits by creating rumors in the market. On the other hand, they use their network and contacts to buy used vehicles from private owners and resell at much higher prices with fat margins. It's so hilarious to see cars in the likes of Toyota Allions/Premios which are older than 10 years & clocked more than 100k in mileage are being advertised at 05 million or more for sale?? Don't panic right now if you a -

Hi Guys, Im having GoodYear tyres in the front & the rear tyres need to be replaced soon. I recently came across a promotion for Nex*n tyres (Korean made) offered by RP.(Arpi**) Does the brand is good enough to replace for my old tyres?? Appreciate your opinion!!

Hi friends, Recently I experienced a sudden sound generating from underneath of my car, Nissan N16 - 2000 model, when i started to move from 01st gear. It gradually decreased when i moved into higher gears. After a while I experienced a little stiffness in my steering wheel & this kept on increasing in the same ride making it so hard to turn the car. I somehow managed to drive back home with unbearable stiffness in the steering & wonder why this had happened so quickly since I used to service my car at regular intervals. Kindly let me know the reason for this as I'm clueless about it

Guys, Kindly take a look at the report I got after my car (Nissan N16) went through the Emission Test. To my surprise it failed the test & I was advised to have an engine tune-up to solve the issue. (Actually an engine tune-up was done a couple of months back at a reputed place @ Ja-Ela) Therefore pls let me know what is actually indicated in the report & what remedial action I should take to get the problem permanently fixed.

Thanks a lot for all your valuable comments. I'll upload an image of the emission test report. By the way do you know a good place to have a complete scanning of the engine for error fixing and replace the worn out parts? How about Kle_ _ n Park @ Ja-Ela for a comprehensive service?? Guys who have previous experiences, pls do share your thoughts!!! CHEERS

Guys, I had an engine tune-up done for my car (Nissan N16, Manual, 1500cc) two months back at a place in Ja-Ela & they replaced spark plugs, cleaned injectors,throttle body,regulator valve after conducting a system scanning (Which cost me around 9K ) Recently I took my car to a place @ Wattala to get the emission test clearance for the revenue licence but failed since it indicated an engine issue. I was pretty much puzzled with the outcome since I didn't feel anything extraordinary with my car & they advised me to do an engine tune-up again! Pls share your valuable thoughts on this
