I heard government planning to increase both patrol and diesel shortly after the provincial council election. Also heard percentage of patrol hike higher than the planned hike in diesel and kerosene. With steady increase of crude prices in world market (there was huge drop in last 2 months) government cannot keep the prices steady as dollar rate increased around 18% due to rupee depreciation from the last fuel price revision. it has believed that CPC lost hedging case in London and USD200M is due and Deutsche Bank’s arbitration will start in the September add up to the bill of patrol consumers. Apart all this, government claimed huge loses in CPC due to all mismanagement which ultimately end up in price hike.

You all have different opinion about Toyota Prius car. all are welcome. You are forgotten plus points of Toyota Prius Hybrid already sold more than 2.5 Million units in more than 70 countries worldwide. They cannot sell so many units if so many millions in world are dump ass and not smart as you guys. I am not a prius owner but i drove 3rd generation car few times. no prius owner downgrade the car after start using few days. I met few prius owners when i took my car for service and all are very much happy about their car. one guy doing tourism said he previously owned allion and after took his prius he is even more happier than allion and he was very proud about his car. (that guy had basic silver color 3rd gen prius car). my next car is definitely a toyota prius 3rd generation but still its not affordable to my budget. There are three categories of mentality i identified 1. pople who are jealous of prius owner and who spend less than half they spend at patrol sheds 2. car owners who cannot afford to buy an new car and criticize some revolutionary product coming to market (but of course they buy prius or insight if they can afford) 3. people who think they are pundits and nobody else does know much as them and whatever they do or believe is correct Finally if millions are existing owners and millions of future hybrid owners are smarter as some people in this forum (above three categories) all car makers will shut down they hybrid production lines and you pundits will be recruited to develop next generation bull cart

WHAT IS THE RELIABLE SOURCE. DO NOT SPREAD RUMORS. IF YOU NEED TO BUY A CAR GO AND BUY IT. HEARD YOU BOUGH A JAPANESE SPEAKING CAR FOR REDUCED PRICE

IT SEEMS YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SELL.

OMG. Do you know why do you need S gear in automatic. All automatic cars have S or L gear similar to 1 & 2nd

You can import Original Honda fit black glass from Japan. But it could cost you little more due to shipping and handling cost.

yes. check fuel station at the grand hotel junction

indian swift and alto have big difference when compared with japanese one even though indian ones comes brand new. 1. suspension - indian suspensions are too rigid and therefore experience is closely resemble to a three wheeler 2. cheap low quality plastic interior 3. corrosion comes to door locks and interior metal elements easily 4. lots of noices after 2 years of use in sri lanka i had bad experience three years ago with maruti alto. same thing experienced in maruti swift car purchased by my friend.

Your figures are same as mine

Insight is actualy doing very close to prius 3rd gen. 12-15 estimate is inaccurate or that person is not driving technically.

civil hybrid does somewhat lower than insight. it using same technology and same engine. but civic hybrid is more heavy therefore doing less. insight does around 19-25 depends on driving and civic does around 17-22

some sellers, i know very well imported few hundreds of vehicles and now selling for 7-8 laks profit. see how enormous money they will earn.

Yes Its annual fee. If they bring this, we can see the true face of this leftist government.

Permit holders have to open LC in his company name. pool of importers is not much use. there will be a import restriction for each permit scheme. some say 10M for 200 vehicles.

Government preparing to gazzete a new law related to vehicle imports. government introduce new permit scheme starting from Rs. 10M non refundable annual deposite to obtain vehicle import permit. no one else allowed to open LC or allowed to import vehicles into sri lanka. this law is bring to the satisfy few importers who held monopoly in vehicle sales in last two decades (very big ones in sri lanka- you know who) actually there are two vehicle importers assiciations in sri lanka and y@ga p#re#a represents above stated one. other vehicle importers association is represents largest number of members representing small scale importers in sri lanka which challanged to the monopoly of giants and represents largest market share in sri lankan car trade. Once this new law is gazzeted, car price will be skyrocketed and GIANTS will be dominiate the industry again. no small sellers could efford to get the permit by paying Rs. 10M. GIANTS will add permit prices also into the final price+ huge profits thanks to the monopoly. Today evening there will be a media conference to educate public. EXPECT GIANT PRICE HIKE VERY SOON!!!! AND CLOSE DOWN HUNDREDS OF SMALL BUSINESSES who sold cars for reasonable prices.
