Hi, How much does it cost for service with oil and filter? Is it 10,000 km service interval for 0w-20 (Sythetic) oil? (Or do we need to replace oil filter every 5000 km) ?

Does the Honda civic es5, es8 comes with CVT.. or just auto .. ? And any comments on Toyota 122 Luxel 2001 model?

Thanks for the replies.. Though Mazda Axela was better than Mazda 3 (Both power and fuel)... Why suggest ES8(1.5 cc) over ES5(1.6 cc) ?

Guys, I'm thinking of buying a new ride. Preferred Budget 2.5 - 3.0 (max), prefer around 2.7. Travels average 400 - 600 km per month Hardly travel on city traffic conditions. Mostly on urban, sub urban roads. Road condition mostly good. Sometime need to travel in poorly maintained roads, for trips etc. Previous car FB 15 1500cc. (Expecting more comfort) Prefer Auto gear.. Comfort - 8 / 10 (Less bumpy, need to have good shock absorbers, some times need to travel in bit rough roads and roads with pot holes) Less maintenance cost - 6/ 10 (Less maintenance frequency, wont mind high part cost) Acceleration - 8 / 10 (Prefer to maintain speeds around 80 - 110 when not in city limits, expects good acceleration) Fuel economy - 7 /10 (Good to Decent is enough ) Re sell value - 5 / 10 (No significant decrease in price) Read the forum and found the following 1. Toyota corolla 122 luxel 2001 - Seems to be good.. But 2001 for that price? 2. Honda Fir GE6 2008/09 - Seems to be good..heard its spacy compared to other hatchbacks (Don't like hatch backs much).. What about comfort compared to others? 3. Honda civic es5 2004 - Beautiful.. Fuel economy? (Is it CVT ? ) 4. Honda civc es1 2003 - CVT issues? 5. mazda axela 2003 - fuel economy? 6. Honda fit aria 2005 - don't know much about this. 7. Toyota 121 , 1.3 Manual 2005/6 9. Toyota 121 LX/ LX limited - 2002 10. Toyota 121 G - 2000 What do you think the best one to suit my needs? Expecting you expert opinion..
