Toyota Vios Vs Ist

[Shezi]

Hello Guys,

I am new to the forum. I thought this is the best place put my question.

I am planning to go for a Vios or IST 2003/2004 with a budget of 2.2 - 2.3m. Which is the best car for:

1. Fuel efficiency

2. Comfort (specially on long trips, i used to travel Kandy)

3. Re-sale value

4. Maintenance (less trouble free)

5. Space (More space)

Expect your valuable inputs for me to take a better decision

Thanks,

Shezi

i would recommend u to go for an IST. its a good looking car with large interior room...

within colombo rush hour traffic it easily does nearly 10kmpl & the pulling power is also good since it has a 1300cc engine

its obviously a trouble free & has a better resale value since its a Toyota

yeah IST is better me thinks... if u dont have a problem of lacking boot space,go for a IST

and from what i've heard,vios doesnt have a good leg space....

Jaff, RoyalKalana & Tikiri, Thanks for your valuable comments...

After inspecting few Vios and IST, I also thought of going for an IST.

But in the meantime I checked some unregistered (2007 - KSP90) VITZ too, which is selling around 2.5 - 2.7m.

One of my friend who is doing vehicle importing, telling me that he can bring down a VITZ 2007/08/09 (KSP90) for less than 2.4m.

So I thought of going for an unregistered VITS. but i will have to wait for 1 and half month for the new car.

Anyway thanks again guys.
