it's rear wheel drive and there are two versions 4 and 5 foward. The red beeding model is the top of the range with RPM meter. but beware, there are converted red beedings also in the market.

Options as far as I know, are only air conditionning and AM/FM radio cassette player.

by considering the price ranges, I think it's better to go for C11 or C12 simply because there's an overlap on the market pricess but features and technology wise you get better cars.

Thanks Buddy..

C11 / 12 goes about 1lkh higher than box in the current market.

Most says lancers ( both Box + C11/12 ) are very bad in fuel usage. True or False?

not really, i've seen some boxes quoting in excess of 350,000/- where as some C11 and 12s goes at 300,000/- or lesser. Fuel consumption is not too bad but lesser to other brands of same era. There was a thread where B11 and Lancer is being compared.

Yeah machan , Boxes are there starting from 2.3k+ - to 3.5k +...

It seems worth looking 4 a C12...

B11s are good but seems hard to find a gud one below 3k...

If anyone knw C12 or BoX in gud condition to sell... let me knw..

C11 is the first version both wagon and sedan. dash board is bit different and there are some differences on the lights, shell, side repeaters and bumpers. C12A and C12 came subsequently in that order with better options, changed/upgraded dash board.

Hmmmm.. thnks for the valuble info... Think better try for a normal condition C12...

Hope availability of spares ( body / Engin ) is avarage and not too hard...?

Heard tht there are few issues with finding original CARBULATORS n Engin parts...

any comments...

frankly not sure about the carb, but had to rebuild the engine due to a T-belt failure, and found an original piston and connecting rod for 2500/-. Saw quite a bit of engines at the same shop. So can't be an issue but then again it depends on the engine. Mine is 4G15 so it could be something to do with the engine.

C12A, this rebuilding is nothing to do with the wear and tear, Just my bad luck T belt gave up before it's time.

Its pleasure to hear tht parts are avilable with not much dificulties..

Hows the fuel usage on yours?
