Best Diesel Suv For Permit

[Kim]

did u sell the new BM as well? is it?

[DCL]

You might be able to get Sunny 1.3 or Corolla 1.3 petrol

Hilux diesel is available and price will be around 3-3.5 Mil, Unimo hasn't finalized the Mitsubishi prices yet.

I talked to the one of Car sale guy, He's saying that We dont have to take what Toyota lanka Import.If we have some one who can shipped a brand new car from japan, we can Import it through Toyota Lanka.We just have to Register through toyota lanka.

Is this true?

If it is we can reduce the Toyota lanka Commission right? There will be only the CIF & Government commission.

Any Idea when the Toyota Lanka is going to Finalise there offer?

I doubt that the information you've got is correct. Coz, In*** Traders told me that I have no option but to get the car from agents. Also Toyota Lanka's comission is the lowest, only 150K.

Hey, If toyota Lanka Commission is 150K. The price of the Corolla 121 1.3 Should be =

CIF 11500$(Rs.1288000)+Government Tax 25%(Rs.322000) + Toyota Lanka Commision (Rs.150000) = Rs.1760000

BUT they are saying it's abt 2Mil. Then how come they are onlt keeping 150K as there commison?

[madmax]

The 25 % tax of the CIF value mentioned in the circular is only the percentages of duty and vat. Apart from that there's a cluase saying other taxes will be applicable, meaning endless taxes like port levy/ social reponsibilty tax will be added on top of this.

For the diesel 2.8 ltr category the addition of the total taxes will be around 112.5% of the CIF value. Also keep in mind the normal duty for a diesel vehicle is around 300%.

I would say the government has given the permit just for the sake of giving. They haven't paid attention to whether average person can afford it or not.

This must be because Toyota Lanka is owned by Toyota itself, am I correct ?

Best thing is be satisfied with what they gave, you don't always get the best things in life. That's life!

Thats funny, both hatch and tghe sedan going at same price???

[roadrage]

The Reason the Corolla was not advertised is cause they are planning to offer the new version and it still has not been launched

According to sources they will launch the 2007 Corolla Axio (NZE 141)

Any one knw abt the Toyota Avanza? Is it fuel efficient? 2nd hand market? etc?

Avanza is a pretty decent vehicle. The 1.3 VVTi engine manages to haul the load, has dual A/C and is reasonably comfortable. I was impressed with the rear seats which although are not full size but offer just enough space/leg space for the average Sri Lankan (big improvement from the SUV jump seats).

Haven't done a fuel test but going by all things VVTi from the Yaris to the Camry it should give decent fuel figures.

Second hand will depend on the recons coming in. We should see Singapore imports coming in soon.

My bets are on the Yaris which will take the place of the Corolla as the new Corolla (Axio) is expected to be priced in the 4.5 mil range.

[madmax]

Mitusbishi has advertised thier petrol range for the permits today.

Guess what, they are offering the Evo X contempory Lancer!

Thx due !!

[DCL]

Any one knw what's the offer for Rav4 from toyota lanka?

And how abt Suzuki Vitara?

[Watchman]

Guess what, they are offering the Evo X contempory Lancer!

How is this different from the regular Evo X? I guess we just might see a few more evos on the roads then

[Pericles]

He means the base lancer. The one the Evo is supposed to be based on.

[sharkster]

saw this in today's paper... 12000 US which is decent but it isn't exactly a diesel SUV is it

[gpmac]

Any reason why the agents r not selling the 1500cc model of the Avanza, is it purely a tax issue
