so we have another idea here that prius drives by grand pa..

Welcome to the AL forum..exactly correct mate.

it can be changed to what ever the way you like..I have changed it to KM/L if we want it can be changed to MPG as well

Yes you are right mate.But he's asking about 10 km/l .Those cars would do 10 km/l in the city ..in fact cefiro won't do that much..

Machan If your budget is 4.5 million isn't it worth for you to buy a brand new ssangyoung korando from micro..it's 5 million only...

You can't go for unregistered ones with your budget..but you could easily go for following options for your budget. Honda. 1.Honda Civic ES8 2.Honda Fitaria GD6 3.Honda City GD 8 Toyota (lesser than your budget) 01.Toyota Corolla AE 110. 02.Toyota Carina AT 212 03.Toyota Sprinter CE 110 Nissan 01.Sunny FB15 02.Bluebird FG10 03.Cefiro A33 Mazda 01.Familia BJ5P

ahaaa..you fixed an Apsara unknowingly to anyboday neda?...

the door jab states the tire pressure for the standard tire comes with the factory fittings..If you change the size of the tire it won't be the right pressure..normally 205/60/15 goes as 32 psi..I know this as i have used the same tire size previously..BTW ..whats the car you use?

Have you heard a saying that "Kele Maru unata kotiyage pulli maru wenne ne" ?? thats just simple as that ...

Bro..I really accept the fact that the prius is not at all a fun car to drive with.But, there are some ways you can make it fun by getting into small driving battles like what i'm doing.For me upto now the most fun driving experience i have ever had was driving a Cadillac CTS in Taiwan in rapid highway road..huh..that was great. .My bro is a fan of euro cars and he got his E46 which is my favorite which i used to borrow from him for shorter travels..

I read the article too.what an unrealistic article.

Yes mate..even i didn't meant that you told that to me... just made a explanation coz you have quoted something i have written.. If you have had a very bad experience with prius drivers..those drivers are ridiculous coz prius is not designed to go slowly..it's designed specially for highway driving..and performs reasonably well even in the mountains..I also can't understand why some drivers behaving like that..is that they think so much on the green environment? or is it the greediness for money?..when i drive fuel figures counter says that it's 18-19 km/L ,when my wife drives it's mostly upto 24 km/L..but she's also drives an average speed of 60 kmph..the only difference between us is .If somebody pass me if it's a vehicle in the same range of engine i will definitely pass that..and there will be a driving battle for some time, whereas my wife ignores those passing ones..that might be difference for the fuel figures..anyway machan if somebody drives at 30 kmph thats lunatic..

Ha Ha well said peri..you got it spot on...

@ K9master, Ok..since you have quoted one of my answers given to some one who asked whether it can be driven totally from hybrid system, i would like to explain this to you..honestly i haven't met any of those kind of prius drivers..and I'm a person who drives at average speed of 70 to 80 kmph..I live in kurunegala and haven't seen much of prius here like kandy and colombo..I'm not a hybrid lover..only the two reasons i bought a prius are ..Fuel efficiency (I'm doing average 120 km per day most probably (Kurunegala dambulla kurunegala) when i'm in Sri Lanka..so prius is the most economical option for me..and space is enough for my family..the second reason is my wife wanted to try a prius too..I'm not rich enough to have two cars for my enthusiasm and for wife's preference..so naturally i opted to a prius..Frankly telling you all dudes..some axio, and allion drivers always wanted to have a challenge on me while i was driving to see how prius performs..I have never ever allowed them to pass me at any circumstances unless i had to stop somewhere..I have done maximum 123 kmph on A9 road from Malate to Dambulla ...so those 30 kmph ..thing is not applicable to all prius drivers..so your "some" hybrid drivers quote is may be applicable to those stupid drivers who try to save the fuel by going at 30 kmph...

So you said that..good..

Yes machan..even the figures for prius is so unrealistic ..even though it says 50 km/L i haven't met any person who got more than 26 km/L from Prius 2008 and 2009..not sure about the third generation

Yes something wrong somewhere.. coz for the time i used the axio i used mostly to outstation travel at average speed of around 60 kmph..it did maximum 11 km/L and some times even lesser..

Prius advertisement says like that...

waste of money..I don't feel any difference with nitrogen and normal air..just tried once and never again..

don't worry mate..your figures are right..thats the real figure you are getting..I used an Axio for few months and got the same figures as you..I don't know why people cannot admit the real fuel consumption figures..

As i have heard the sensor issues & rattling noises are the common issues for rexton..yet i haven't heard anything in that nature about kyron..anyway..it's better to talk to a person who's using it now for some years..otherwise you will feel like "Hotu geni deela kehi geni gaththa wage" BTW... i accept that ssangyoung SUV's very handy in design..

I'm not sure about the engine..but transmission for sure...

Not sure about the cost..but it'll be available in Delkanda for sure.

Mate..It sounds like you have actyon and kyrons behind your mind..I have no idea about actyon as i don't have any close friend who's using it..but my uncle was using a kyron ..and don't know the reason he changed to a lexus..but i think the second hand kyron (2008-2009)is well within your budget and actyon is not good looking as kyron i suppose..your topic heading says "as a Sri Lankan" so why don't you try a kyron and see how it works???...A Sampath Bank branch manager whom one of my friends told me that they gave more than 15 leases for rexton and kyrons and when they asked from the owners, they are very satisfied with the SUV they have got...so think and get a wise decision..

good luck mate..
