You are absolutely new Corolla is does not drive or ride like a Corolla. It is in par if not any Euro that are common in SL. Typical Corolla fans will have issues with the ride which is focused towards handling. Rear seat space which cannot accommodate 3 adults and two children. And of cause boot space which is not sufficient for the annual trip with 5 adults and two children. It is let down only by the CVT

Agree 100% my car came with a Japanese ceramic coat worth over Rs. 250K. Recently three wheeler toppled in to the front. Not a single scratch as it was the fabric area that came in to contact but extensive damage to bumper, bonnet and a front light (dents no scratches) Insurance claim will be over the cost of the tree wheeler.

Porsche service with the agent has is usually less than Rs. 80K once a year or 15000km Even a major service with spark plugs, filters and gear oil change will be around Rs. 200K

I would also suggest X3 or GLC 200 considering it is not a daily driver. You will get proper 2.0 L turbo with adequate power rather than a 3 port in X2 Both models do not cut corners in quality too

You need to take in to account the risk factor. Some one running in to you head on. Or the moron in the motor cycle / tuk tuk. And also the toll cost.

There is a place in Pannipitiya (Hokandara Road), There is one in Piliyandala I have no personal experience though

Could be a cooling issue, keep an eye on temperature gauge. When engine temperature goes up a/c is automatically shut down to decrease the load on the engine. Why don't you take the vehicle to the agent and get it checked it might be worth rather than going and replacing sensors trying to sort out the issue with out proper identification of the issue.

GLS has has few additional features Better seat material, Multi function leather steering, projector beam head light, wooden/ carbon like finish inserts in the dash and front doors, 6 speakers instead of 4, factory remote key with remote boot release. GLS will be Rs. 100-200K worth over GLX

It is manufactured in Thailand and most likely will not be offered in Japan. Likely hood of 1.2L (CVT) may be remote. Even for the Corolla 1.2L offered in very selected markets outside Japan

From the looks of it seller is not bothered about any of the 6 All that can be managed legally but will take lot of time, effort and money including fines. Budget for everything if you are keen on the vehicle. Most expensive would be luxury tax arrears and if the receipts are missing.

Buy the Vitz, Audi will not meet any of your requirements besides reversing

This is about right for 141

Are you in this world, vehicle imports were stopped in March 2020. So this so called price list does not exist.

Octane rating has nothing to do with fuel quality. There could be poor quality 95 too.

requirement 92 You can pump 95 and support the govt. by way of higher tax if you wish to do so

You need to change oil at least once a year 10-15K on synthetic is no issues. Sri Lankan conditions are harsh but not severe to warrant 5K changes.

141 do not have climate controls so my understanding was it is just a thermostatic control like in the good old days. May be I'm wrong here. Original parts for 141 are generally cheaper outside as there are people who get them down directly from Thailand you may be able to source the compressor through them.

Brought a Fiamm twin snails sometime back from online store W**i.lk sometime back. for about Rs. 3K good sound and works without any hitch.

I had a 2001 CS1 and the original front shocks gave in at 30K km and the agent quoted Rs. 54K. in 2003. Got down KYBs from T**S for Rs. 17K for both and they were good when I sold the car 4years later at 115K Some times the agent rip you off on parts and repairs.

I know of one car which has done 140K with only a replacement fan for hybrid battery.

Fortunately my one got written off by a bus driven by a moron. Can vouch for the safety of the vehicle.

Buy if you want to make a statement. Does not make any economic sense. Cost approximately Rs. 8 Mn. assuming you keep the car till end of the battery warranty of 8 years you will most likely end up with a vehicle with next to nothing residual value. That is approximately Rs. 1 Mn./ year

I don't see any on the road these days

You will need to do an annual service irrespective of mileage (20K km or 1 year) depending on age and total mileage cost of this would be Rs. 60-100K. Ok for a premium Euro for a year. Average Toyota / Honda could cost same for 1 year / 20K km (4 services) If you opt for the hybrid you could have issues with the generator and battery both will cost millions of rupees to put right. There are no used parts and even if you get them down you will need to reprogram the ECU for the new part and I cant think of anyone who will be able to handles this. On plus side you can get a extended warranty for a fee up to 10 years. Most of the cars have this and if you get a 2013-14 you could have 3-4 years of peace of mind. Good luck after warranty expires. There could be few vehicles where these were repaired recently which could be a plus as they could last may be for another 3-4 years. Generally these cars were brought by enthusiasts and only few by rich/ politico morons find a car from the 1st category you will be safe. Generally they are reliable compared to other Euros and wear and tare is much better, when it comes to trim, leather seats etc.. Majority are low mileage less than 5K km annually and mostly parked inside day/ night. There are few specimens around, suggest you get in touch with the agent as they will be able to help you out.

I would seriously think on lowering a Allion/ Premio as even the stock bottoms up with 4 people.
