I'm looking to buy my first car, and after tons of research, I narrowed down my search to four vehicles which I think will suit my requirements best,
being a hatch (limited parking space available)
decent gas mileage (will be travelling from Panadura to Bamba twice or thrice every week, plus some casual driving on the weekend)
hassle-free car so I can spend less time in the garage
Not too crammed up inside
Budget around 3-3.5Mn
So these are the cars that I would like to get my hands on based on my requirements,
Toyota Vitz (2005-2008) - Highest priced among my choices
Toyota Passo (2004-2008) - Least priced, but looks the worst as well
Mazda Demio (2007-2009) - My personal favorite
Nissan March (2007-2008) - Same as the Passo, I guess
I've read most of the threads I could find on these cars here at AL, but most of them are outdated. Hence, I need your insights on which car would be a better choice given the current market condition and the running conditions. It would be great if I could get the fuel figures for these cars now, now that they are 12-15 years old.
I am open to any other recommendations as well that fall within my budget and satisfy my requirements. Thanks in Advance!
Nissan might close down operations in 12 -14 months? https://www.carscoops.com/2024/11/nissan-exec-says-we-have-12-or-14-months-to-survive/ Are we going to see more companies shutting down or is this a one off. So much for the new GTR and the new Patrol.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
Does anyone know how exactly this is supposed to work? They haven’t really started brand new imports again right?
Pricing seems relatively fine in the grand scheme of things, given how 10/15 year old cars are still pretty expensive in our market
A guy advertises a mileage blocker on the quick site saying that his device blocks the vehicle mileage from changing on the odometer. Is it legal to advertise stuff like this?
