  1. I would reccomend the Honda GP1 anyday. Realy nice car. And since its a Honda its a awesome drive with cool handling(personal experience...) Also the car looks good and the interior is also nice, where as the Wagon R looks like a loaf of thin bread.. I have seen the perodua as well..It just wasnt right for me, was ugly and much smaller in real life than those adverts show it... Regarding the Aqua.. well its a good car,its reliable.good car to get here and there,but it has no driving pleasure.. since your gonna do a lot of driving,specially outstation you need a car which is fun. Or you'll fall asleep if its boring as hell. ( happend to me in a maruti 800).. soo I would reccomend u a Fit GP1... But pls dont get the silver. Looks crap... This is my opinion.. Go for what makes u happy,not friends and neighbours, thanx, sorry for the long rant...
  2. Guys can I fix night breakers into the Alto? Whats the bulb type It has?
  3. Hmmmm Thanx guys for the info. @magnum no idea mate. I thought they had separate outs. I think Ill buy one from SL. seems the units are cheaper here. And theres the risk of custom checks as well. Buying from here is better anyway cos I can personaly select a good one with options I want and can check for audio and video quality with a good interface... Pet#o will be ok yeah?
  4. Machan Is it only for me, I dont see the light on the road? I mean it looks sorta dim in the pic of the car lighted also.the two walls are lit up. But I dont see the road lit up. see TIVs pic, u can see that the road right in front of the vehicle is lit. Maybe u need to align em.cheers EDIT- I think u need to lower the light, towards the road. Even in the alto its the same, it has a smal switch, when u put it to 5 the light is lifted up. That way the whole area is lighted,but its aimed at mid air, when u put it to 0 the light is really lowered to the road, the best setting is 3 and 4. That way it lights up both road and surroundings.thnx

      There was this era where they had those "Head Turning Dogs" (Oluwa Karakena Ballo) as ornaments in cars, but now those are never to be found.. Wonder what happened to them... How about one of those if you managed to find one :D

  9. HI all. My sis is coming down from the states next month. She agreed to get me a audio video unit. she has no idea on brands and models, so I have to select one myself. The specs I need- DVD/CD MP3/MP4/WMA/3G Full range tuner USB Reverse camera IPOD/IPHONE Bluetooth Remote shud have 4 speaker plus 2 tweeter connectors. And a input for a sub... Need a quick suggestion guys, shudnt be too expensive.. doesnt have to be a top model either. Thanx. BTW Preasea bro u wanted something from states ryt? Drop me a pm if u still need it
  10. Thnx mate.yes we enjoyed every minute.. The ride was so comfy.we dint feel lyk getting down. Town limits I have no idea machan cos we used it for outstation only. Yeah it had the NEO 2000cc v6 engine. Its not so bad on fuel as people say.. It has so many options as well. We had leather seats with electric seats,climate control,temparature meter. Its a real luxury car.yeah resale is sorta bad. But not soo bad,there are people who value that car.we sold our car within one month.I would reccomend one any day. I myself myt go for the newer Cefiro next year. Thnx
  11. We had a Cefiro some time ago, It did 11 kmpl with AC on a round trip. We started from Colombo to Matara via highway. From mathara we went to Katharagama. From Katharagama we went to Bandarawela. And came to kandy from there. And we came back home to Colombo.. AC was on the whole time with medium setting and temparature lowered To give maximum cooling.Speed was always above 80.That trip cost us only 6500 worth of fuel. It was a real plesure to drive, sooo comfortable, the engine roaring at high revs were music to my ears, It was packed with many features that still dint come in japs. I highly reccomend it

    Well If its so expensive as preasea bro says better go for alloy wheels if you spend a bit more, Im not talking about the crap alloys, good ones, You can get peugeot logo on the center.. just my two cents
  13. Personally I would go for the cruze. Its the newest of the lot also. BTW wht about a Fiat punto?
  14. Thanx everybody for the replies, sorry I could not reply all of you early.. Firstly I respect everybodys opinion. Though Im not happy that the cant be upgraded. So Iv decided to go small and takle bit by bit, first Im planning on a brake upgrade. Can anybody point me in the right path because Im nil on these types of upgrades, so far all Iv done are common classics. Thanx.. Btw I dont want a premio break unit in my car lol,,,, definetly not wanting a 2c engine either.
  15. Da Fuq U should be killed man. Here I am trying to make a eco car into a fast car while u buggers take cool cars into shit boxes, I hope u had the balls to make your own kids with ur wife, U look like the type who would marry a divorced woman with a bunch of kids because its cheaper than making ur own, I really hope ur aqua battery would die in the middle of no where since soceity needs to be rid of Assholes like u.sheesh typical srilankan mentality(no offence, most guys are like this)
  16. thats not the point bro, its my sisters car. She doesnt want to sell it. Upgrading is fine with her. Anyway I like to make something Unique. I know its not very safe but Im willing to upgrade strength somehow( need help on this).. Thanx for the advice
  17. Double post. Can somebldy delete this pls
  18. HI People, No this is not a thread about fuel or oil changes and crap... No Im not a hypermiller. I have been a member since 2012. Yet I post very rarely. But I read all em threads daily, I have had a lot of help from U guys in the past as well. Okay enough on that... Its like this, we got an Alto 2015 for my sister(not my choice as I personally like Italians,Euros and american vehicals).Reason we went for it was brand new, reliable and economical.Her money so I dint go against it... we paid and waited 6 months for it. That was also a month earlier than they promised. I even called Komi once bcos he was also going to sell an alto he ordered for his wife. Sadly I lost his number.. Now here is the real deal. Its economical to the core, BUT its bloody boring as hell.Only in bends in the hill country you can get some feeling. But if u keep doing that Im gonna fly off. Handling is horrid,tires are shitty. After 3rd gear it takes ages to speed. Max I've done is 120.U wet urself not cos its fun, it feels really unsafe. As if ur gonna lift off Into the sky and into Gods arms..(Not funny).. And the BREAKS, MY GOD THE BREAKS... A mountain bike stops faster.. so far the only thing added is a spoiler. Oh and got it tinted.. nope I dont want a neon or integra stickers on the windshield... I want to make it faster,more fun to drive and do something unique on the outside. Only tuks are more visible in roads than altos now.followed closely by vesis. I saw somebody has done a Turbo convo on a k10 alto. My God thats awesome.. I want help from all u experts to make the car a a (beast?) Roughly what I think It needs- Engine upgrade, break upgrade, suspention upgrade,interior and exterior upgrade..pls help me everybody No I dont care about resale value. Selling and buying something else is also not an option. I have a weird taste in cars. Hate common cars,this is very common.. But I like to make it a unique Alto. Thanx in advance. Sorry for the long rant Heres a pic of her free image hosting
  19. does any one know who ordered the 2014 Alto 800 and is willing to cancel it?pls let me know.quite urgent!!!

  20. Do you mean the blue square badge saying GM? Try Mag City. They bring down Chevys...
  21. Happy bday mate!!!
  22. Open the bonnet and see.. Its not that hard is it? Shud be DIY
  23. Hey everybody.my sister is thinking of buying a micro panda since the prices are down. she will opt for the 1.3 because fuel consumption is not a big issue. driving pleasure is more prefered... she will be buying brand new... She asked me how it is... I have read almost every thread on the internet. watched hell lot of videos in youtube as well.. thing is all of them are outdated.. can someone give me the current situation of these cars? how r they coping up? is the customer service better now? do the cars being imported recently still have the factory errors? eg- p.steering rack... value a quick answer because she wants to buy asap.. Oh BTW they say they will deliver the 1.0 liter model in two days.. couldnt ask abt the 1.3 model.. unless it takes a long time to arrive we will go for the 1.3.... thanx all. hoping for fast answers
  24. the alto would be economical and reliable since it is brand new...but the starlet would give u more driving pleasure. Personally I hate the looks of the alto. looks like a rat rather than a car. its upto you to decide.but keep some cash if u buy the starlet bcos u would need to do some repairs bcos most starlets are abused now
