instead of improving the after sales and spare parts service and stopping selling low quality vehicles from china,they have turned towards cheap Marketing to improve falling sales? Pathetic!

saw one too I was speechless.

The S660 is a sexy looking car, but i have yet to see a manual one.

yes it is just saw one in the office parking lot thing is probably the best of the kei's that are coming here.... 

You'd be surprised the perks they offer. 

The wine red vezel, the best reminder of 2014

Its like those songs which are attached to memories

not to forget the special ones with the gold badge 

yeah machan what I realize is people don't actually buy cars based on their needs... they just follow trends. Just coz they think the price is a 'deal' they buy it...

There is a significant risk in running a 1000CC car made for Europe, in Sri Lankan conditions. These morons will realize it in a few years' time. I am actually enjoying the 1000 CC threads.

Looking forward to see a lifetime of "told you so" moments in the years to come. Can't wait

can't you use the spare?

I had thrown away the spare that time again hoping to get the bigger set

ahh spares.. they don't come anymore at least not in Honda's fancy little automobiles.. 

The over assisted steering is a God send in the city though. So much so that, I always bounce off opposite lock when I'm turning the wheel quickly, and that cannot be good for the column at all, so now I make a conscious effort to not spin the wheel so fast. Comfort wise, yes it is very much a boat, and the rear suspension becomes way too soft when carrying 4 passengers and their related luggage. And couple that with the quiet interior, and you have a truly calm place to be in during intense traffic sessions. It isn't a car you feel like driving fast, rather one should simply waft with right hand on the arm rest and three fingers from the left hand gripping the wheel while your hand is resting on your knee (that's how I always drive our Axio).

Yeah - it's a bit of a place of 'zen' and the road noise was minimal - I drive a Honda Fit and that thing is raucous and you get  a LOT of feedback - so understandably i felt a little like i was in  a simulator  

Yeah I felt the same when I drove a friends GP5, also the transmission was not smooth like the one in the axio. But it had more acceleration and I felt like it had more rear leg space than the axio.

Not only 3 wheelers I guess! http://www.hirunews.lk/134130/vehicle-prices-further-rise

Ya... I too hate them.

Ha ha! Good one

Yeah turns out Xiaomi/Lenovo banks are available freely. Thinking of going for one of 'em

the local ones are hit and miss, most are fakes. try banggood.com. that's where we buy ours from and they're all genuine.

hey thanks for the info -banggood looks good

These days police seems to take a mellow approach on protesters. Spokesmen spelled it out himself!

Update: apart from the usual traffic on negombo road or near new kelani bridge area nothing out of the ordinary (between 7 and 7.45)

I'm willing to go for a car pool.

The pens work surprisingly well, you can't notice the difference from 2 feet away.

AAAgggh I know the feeling... this is why you need a dog too.. or a cat would do..trust me when there is a cat, a dog won't come closer..the cat and the dog stay at a distance and fight with each other..as in the dog bark and the cat purrs, so the dog won't get the change to rub his ass next time..while they quarrel someone will notice it and chase the dog away..

Most dogs seems to be afraid of cats

@matroska: I bought one of those el cheapo pens frm ebay and used it on my old car and parked it under the sun, but it didn't work. this was a small but deep scratch though.

how much is a i3?

Maybe we should give it some time. I'm pretty sure it will become popular

Saw a fleet of white B Classes at the afore mentioned Sale along with i3s replacing the Vezels and Aquas. @Reckless I think i3 goes for around 5 Mil not sure tho.

Once it is applied, does it looks like it has been covered?

Yes. It becomes shiny instead of its matt finish. But you can enjoy that weird feeling whatever beneath shiny surface is in tact though the surface is scratched.

My Hiace has a huge plastic for the rear doors, the main reason I didnt paste those stickers is cuz of the reason Rumesh mentioned and it could get slippery

The difference is the quick trivia thread is actually popular!

Hmm I see lot of hatred towards the Nissan Presea thread after my 'I sold my car' post..

U mean the 2015 model?

well actually the one i saw was the 2012 one which is very different from the JDM or US version.

I think they cleaned up the older adverts.

since i work in this field let me just say that car dealers are indeed holding back vehicles and also they seemed either stop importing or Hidden the imported vehicles till the budget officials the new taxes

Last week's h#t a# had a considerable amount of ads but most of them the prices were not mentioned

Oh, so you had a car and you sold it and awaiting to buy one is it? what did you drive before, and what are you going to buy? (if you dont mind me asking)

A Perodua Kelisa - actually my wifes but ever since she bought it when we were dating 5 years ago I was taking care of it. sold it off last month

Good boy... a keeper I see, just like me.... The Presea is a good vehicle I would recommend to anyone who is about to buy a car you know

Lol yeah they do that too, slams on the breaks for no reason at all.

I think i figured out why most women slam on the breaks, they dont look far ahead and get themselves prepared. They react at the last moment most of the time

Sri Lanka... a land like no other

<3 sedans forever !

True... I love to see a new sedan on the roads... I seriously wonder what to buy in a couple of years as im a sedan fan too...

IT guys really like hybrids, dnt know why

Maybe because they are only good at IT

i guess the obsession

with all the numbers and indicators and stuff

Lol

What was the 48 year old car?

same way i feel for so many who cannot keep up with a 25 year old diesel automatic. It's not the machine, but the driver
