You're asking of a 21 year old car,.

The car was awailable with a multitude of options and accessories,. had a face lift mid way through it's life.

looks good from any angle with pinifarinna design.

aQ: where are you looking to get the car from? SL market models are only station wagon and saloon. rhd manual with 1.4 petrol + diesel.

Regardless of the body shape, the auto box kills efficiency.

As for servicing, a couple of specialist Pug joints have popped up .

if your question is about an actual hatch back instead of a wagon. there is only about 4 cars in Sri lanka. one is sedan converted to a hatch.

you are thinking of a 15years old Euro and your biggest concern is the cost of Service?

Don't buy because its cheaper than the competition of AE110s.

If you really fell in love with the car, would suggest to have 0.5-1 million aside to bring it back to showroom condition.

In these early 2000 models,I think there was an issue with Auto transmissions overheating. You can search more in the forum about joints that repair this.

This is my first car I am gonna buy. I thought rather than going for fb 13 n all. I can go for this for my budget. But I concern about the fuel consumption and services where I should not worry in future. I think rather than going for Hyundai Accent or Kia Rio. This is better. If you can hep out with this, it would be a huge help

thanks

2 wrong reasons to buy a 15 year old Euro.

But if you buy it you will get the driving pleasure,ride quality,Handling,Attention that most Japs wont bring you.

You will lhave to spend some time in the workshops,looking around for parts.

But you will learn a lot about how cars work and the 0.5-1 million spent on repairs would be equal to what you pay for interest on a Lease for a newer Jap car. In the end, you will have to find someone fanatic enough about Euro cars to sell it to.

My Budget is 13 lakhs. Can you please suggest me some cars

ajm · June 18, 2018

Sorry I have only experience with old Euros. But use the "Search" function in the forum and some other members may be able to support you with suitable older JDM,Korean,Malysian models. Not only budget, you should mention other factors like space,fuel consumption you expect.
