  1. Hi Dinosh, I am currently looking for a corona AT 211. Please let me know if there is available vehicle. My no is 0777889966

    It's a 1980 model is questionable coz the production of the E30 started form 1984. Anyway give-up the idea on this. The Mini is a good choice! Have seen many of them advertised so you shouldn't have a prob in getting a good one.

    What is the manufactue year of this?? is it 1990?? This would have been used by a person who has no care for vehicles which is why there is a Jap engine in it. If you really like an E30 better hold on for a while until you can get reach about a 800k budget so that you can own a decent one.

    I would recomend you to stay out of this. Once these cars are messed-up it is extremely difficult to put them back to what it should be. The total wiring in the car would be messed if it has under gone a Jap engine swap. Also for the owner to fix Jap engine into this you may never what else would have been done under the metal. There are plenty of good looking E30's around, but try to go for genuine one which is in original condition. Sometimes they may have small things to be done (do not forget that these are almost 2 decades form manufacture).
  6. You will need to keep a good alert coz 2 door interplay hatch's are not that common & won't come-up for sale frequently. As a vehicle it's awesome to drive, no regrets! The DOHC 1500 does better than you'd expect. Decent on fuel & part availbility is good as well.

    How about the Mazda familia sportback/wagon. looks good too.
  8. Wish you all the best. have a great day!
  9. Hey Dev now's the time to hit the road for a drive. Being such a small country there are enough & more places to go, that's what i love so much about this country. Can remember Dimantha posting some beautiful pics few months back of some nice locations. Rulshan, thanks for mentioning that route. can include this for our next trip.
  10. Yup, these pic's were from last year's road trip over that area.
  11. Yup, Planning it for this April holidays. sometimes may be earlier. the Gampola Nuwareliya road is great! The Ramboda area is the best. here is a pic of that tunnel Just one more pic captured on the way to Beragala from Bandarawela.
  12. I love that road from Ginigathhena upto Nuwaraeliya. Also not to forget the cahin of roads heading towards Maskeliya/Sripada from hatton, not the best in condition though. One more is the laxapana road which you can reach dikoya after passing 2 small beautiful reservoirs. Need to go on the road form ratnapura to bandarawela. Didn't get the chance after it was done-up.
  13. Yup, these are 4 pot 1.5L DOHC engines.
  14. There is a similar unit in the Mazda Interplay's. It is connected to the air filter box & runs into a dead end over the radiator, i was curious to know what this unit was about but no one was able to calify it for me. Sorry, i don't have the pic of the engine bay to post it to make it easy for some explanation
  15. The Carina Si will be a good buy. Has good value retention as well. Btw do you have a preffered brand to go with??
