Hi [mention=3710]Crosswind[/mention] What's the ATF you're using?

Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying a Honda Fit GP1. Can you please advise on the following. 1. All GP1's in the market have a mileage of between 75,000-100,000km. Some people say that the battery needs replacing after 150,000 km. Is this true? 2. Should I be expecting any immediate repairs? (if there's any known repair that occur at for ex. 100,000 km etc.) 3. What should I check when buying a hybrid car? Any recommendation of a place to get a technical evaluation done before buying it? 4. What's the difference between GP1 & GP1 Navi Premium? Thank you!

Yes, it is for daily city use, not for off-road purposes. Didn't think SX4 would fit in that category anyway. Any idea about this Picanto? Leg space aside, is it a good drive? (in case if I couldn't find any GE6)

All the advertised 1300cc Vitz are over 3M. But will have an eye out for it, in case if I get lucky

Got it. That explains it. "has a bit of pull" -> like that one. Thanks mate!

I saw people have recommended GE6 in few threads as well, but didn't find any available to purchase within Colombo (so far only looked online). Will definitely go out there and look for this one. Thank you @matroska BTW, between FIT GE6 & SX4, which one do you think is better?

Thanks @Quiet what do you mean by a fun car? Appearance/features? It usually does at-least 8 km/l right?

Thanks @JMahesh. Sorry I forgot to mention, I do not want to go for a 660 cc or a 800 cc.

Hi All, I'm new here. I'm looking to buy a car between 2-3 Mil (Max 3M). Following are the ones I found in that range and appreciate if you guys can help me narrow down the list. So the options I thought are as follows. 1. Mazda Demio 2008 (1300 cc) 2. Toyota Passo 2010-2012 (1000 cc) 3. Kia Picanto 2016 (1000 cc) 4. Toyota Vitz 2007-2010 (1000 cc) 5. Suzuki Swift Beetle 2008-2009 (1300 cc) Basically I'm looking for a car with automatic transmission, hopefully not older than 10 years and does around 10 km/l (from what I've read so far all the above do somewhere around that mark, give or take. If it's more than 10, well, great ) and have at-least a little bit extra leg space than in an Alto or an Elite. I'm not particularly looking for hatchbacks, but couldn't find any sedans not older than 10 years within this price range. Can I know which one has the lowest maintenance cost after I buy it and start running day-to-day? (given that the car is in a good condition when I buy it and I maintain the same of course) I've also being looking at Suzuki SX4 2008 (Hatchback model-1600 CC). Can anyone tell me how the fuel consumption is and maintenance costs of SX4 compared to the above list? Should I be forgetting the rest of the list and go for a SX4, though I might have to stretch the budget a bit to find a one in good condition. If you think any other make/model would best fit my requirement, please let me know as well. Thanks everyone and appreciate any advise you experts can give.
