  1. Fixed deposit interest rates have gone down to 5-6 % .
  2. the problem is in the 200-300M drive try to take it around more when you do get a chance.
  3. Well I find the Vitz uncomfortable too (don't hate, my butt cheeks and hands must be very sensitive ), never driven a corona though.
  4. Or all the Honda's are riced up and Lowered that they hit the Jacks stands
  5. Driven one to Hikkaduwa and back it is OK spacious not very comfortable if you hit a pothole you can count how many rocks are there in it as you feel every little pebble on to the steering wheel. One thing I've noticed was when you close and open the power windows the upper part where the window seals up tends to move about dono if its badly made or its some engineering thing that helps the windows to seal up properly.
  6. Who the duck are you to call that man an idiot ? You clearly shouldn't restore a car of this significance as from what I see you don't understand the connection that a person has with a Classic car. It is not to just restore and show around. Go and spend your Shekels on a 1970s Lancer or an Celeste.
  7. Non of the vehicles you stated are PROPER offraod SUV's, that would be a Jeep Grand Cherokee, Toyota Land Cruisers, Range Rover. What you are talking about is widely know as the 'Mahathaya Model' these have very very reliable engines but now 98% of them are shagged and the other 2% are 1st owners and they will never sell them off. I would highly suggest you to go for the early 2000's these aren't bad might be slightly comfortable and more technological as well. Mind you the Montero's what ever the year they are utter Shi* at comfortability. And don't forget these are 20 years and older the number of spare parts begin brought in are reducing I know in fact our 16 years in the family toyota Hiace LH103 we had to go to a walk around to find some parts as we did a re-build recently.
  8. You should buy a Premio good sir
  9. I would say very. Usually when the valves are loose it creates this rattling rather unpleasant noise but It's not simply a matter of being noisy; the quiet ones are the ones that really have to worry about. Valve train lash that is too loose will beat through the hard coating on the lash adjusters, cam followers, or cam lobes over time. This can be expensive to repair. Valve train lash that is too tight (the TOO quiet part) can burn the valves, valve seats, and in some cases ruin the cylinder head if the situation is bad enough. Not to mention rough running and lack of performance. Valve clearances get out of spec due to the valve face seating and dishing in over time, wear on the valve seat, and valve stem stretch, the latter of which is generally true of the exhaust valves. Lack of regular oil changes and wear on the valve train can cause excessive looseness.
  10. Well here you go, Karranna onee , they do an oil change after the first 1000 km to remove the metal particles that was rubbed off the engine parts during the break-in period so yeah better go do it. If this metal are not removed then it can cause parts to faster wear in the engine
  11. Thank you all ! Decided to not buying it, the second hand market for this even though its a Jap is pretty low as well.
  12. Lovelys I'm talking about this, in case any of you all think its the newer version - Not this bullcrap-
  13. OMG you guys are so meaaan! lol , Thank you for the reply fellows really appreciate it. For what I've heard the Engine is legendarily Bullet proof the 4D56's. The lag can be easily fixed with a little tweaking with the boost screws as said by a mechanic in Panadura because most of them were over boost ? This is something I read online -
  14. hey, I'm planing on getting rid of the Rav 4 2003 soon and was looking at a alternative. Rav4 was pretty bad on fuel economy it had a D4 petrol 2000CC was fun to drive almost like a subi but was a little too small sometimes.. What I have in mind is the Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2007-2008 rage the Permit Diesels 2.5 TD, I've never used any other Jap's other than Toyota so was wondering it's durability ( spare parts) ? reselling value? and off road capability ? well know faults ? Thanks
  15. Anyone know where I can get the ((X)) Letter Air Freshener from ? Can't seem to find it anywhere not even on Ebay, still have it on our rav4 lasted a long time and it looks cool too want to get one for the Car as well, the ambi pur brand I got for the beamer sucks I got it from Arpico for 600/- this was the 3rd failed air freshener I've bought since I got the car .
