So i was on the look out for radiators for my Hy Sonata, the one already installed has previously been fitted with a copper tank (comes plastic from factory) and that seems to be leaking pretty bad (Audible hissing sound). a brand new unit of the same costs around 22K at panchi. so before heading out for that, just wanted to get some information on reconditioned units, which are like 12K.
How are these reconditioned radiators sourced for sale? (Parted out units or units that have been broken/Leaking and now fixed and sold)
are these reconditioned radiators reliable? ( im not expecting B/N reliability, but i also dont want to get my self a patched up, ready to explode radiator....i guess thats the catch here!)
so anyone with the knowledge and expertise about these reconditioned units please do leave a comment on what these reconditioned units really are. are they units that have been parted out, or are they ones that have been leaking and patched up? because if its the former, then i am willing to give it a shot. as of now, i just dont feel all that confident on how the term "reconditioned" sounds in our country? your advice is highly appreciated.
I'm going to buy a car in SL for 2 mil while being in Germany. Then I'm going to put up a public raffle draw and pick one lucky winner to gift that car when I have 600 participants registered in the raffle draw. Registration fee for each participant is Rs. 5000/-
Why didnt I think of this before
So for a spirited convo like this old times; ?BYD
My father has gone ninja about getting one, despite being the new hype/fad here these are common across the world and I've seen a few cross 100,000km in Nepal and Australia.
Seal - Looks nice, very premium interior but too low for my applications
Sealion - Very Premium, feels very well built, BUT that 1.5L on that reasonable chunk of car with a measly 18KW battery seems like a recipe for trouble, incase they sink in value at least the fuel economy must justify that (They say it's a BYD engine - though the lore is it is a hyundai engine)
Atto 3 - Most sold from their lot apparently, common af, Seems to be the best bang for buck IMHO, Its electric since BYD is famed for that, Interior is kinda good, the thing is larger than a vezel but not too large like the Sealion, cheap mobility I guess with less things to go wrong
Dolphin, almost a smaller atto and again too car like and not suited for my application.
JK nailed it on the price and distribution but the only guaranteed thing here is the lot are gonna muck up the aftersales. The Kandy center staff behave like the crew from a Govt. post office.
What are your thoughts and opinions? Could this be the next Wagon R or is this a passing fad like the Micros of 2000s-2010s?
I have an empty parking slot at home previously occupied for 6 years by the starlet and 3 months by an AD wagon -what would be a bang-for-the-buck fun shitbox? Preferably auto as I live in a crowded suburb that has sapped the joy of stick shift out of my system.

Hi friends,
