      Thanks guys I went ahead and did it on Friday. @Dee Jay Yes the temp license is valid for a month hope they will post it before it expires. Online licenses will get piled up, I sure hope they won't screw it up. Things will get complicated if I had to explain all this to the police. Once a police officer stopped me and when I gave him the temp revenue license he didn't have a clue what it was 😀

      Thanks. I'm concerned about the delivery of the license. Someone actually need to post the license physically and the postal services are not working.

  9. OPINIONS WANTED ASAP.I gave up the idea of moving to a new car for a few months.But suddenly a relation of mine said that he is going to sell his 2013 Allion due to the reason that he bought the new Eclipse Cross for the permit.The car was very well maintained with KW plates imported on permit,in Maroon colour.Not met with any kind of accidents.G plus package.Only problem is that it had done 110000km.The running is almost based on highway and around colombo with good maintainence and he is quoting around 5million.For me he would most likely to reduce the price a bit.I know I have to stretch my budget to the extreme for that,but the car is in good condition.He said that he did repared the AC and an interior cleaning is needed,since he has two kids.Does it seems to be a good bargain?Sometimes he is likely to reduce the price further.Should I grab or let it go?Since he is very famous around the family for maintaining cars very well,I’m a bit hesitant to let it go?

      That's a nice looking car I like that color too. Its a 2013+ alright you can tell from the side mirrors. The allion has a good ground clearance but you might have to be little cautious with the bodykit when driving on really bad roads. One of my friends allion has a bodykit, he has got it hit several times when going over pot holes and uneven terrain and now its cracked.

      @alpha17 Did you buy the car? I'd also say to go for it, its a good choice. You probably wouldn't get another chance like this. Like matroska said if you could get it for 4.8m or below it would be a bargain.

  17. The gaskets and the head of my Cefiro Engine blew off.. Searched the whole country for a Singa Version engine and all I could find was a Jap engine (which is completely different to the neo engine including the mounts). So returned the new engine back and sold the car without the engine for dirt cheap. half a million loss.. Now looking for an automatic Presea again and do another presea project.

      Sorry to hear that machan. What was the cause for the gasket to fail?

  19. I recently came across an electrician meddling with a vehicle's side mirrors

    When the mirrors were retracted, it failed to stop at the normal position, instead the left side mirror kept moving towards the front of the vehicle. 

    The electrician mentioned that the mirrors have 'gone out of timing'

    Apparently this happens if the mirrors get knocked or bumped into. He folded/unfolded the mirror which had the problem using his hands couple of times and the issue was sorted out

      And Hiace side mirrors cannot be damaged by bikers because its mounted higher up. My axio side mirrors auto fold every time I lock the car and auto unfolds when I unlock it. Don't think it could be stopped without a modification, but I find it very convenient some times.

      Mine got knocked by a biker when stopped at traffic and it folded the other way, I was furious that he had broken it and started yelling, there is some kind of a locking/stopping mechanism and if it breaks the mirror will rotate all the way. But luckily after pressing the retract button it corrected it self. But I still kept yelling at the biker, he was stunned :D Using excessive force to fold/unfold is not recommended. Btw my axio hybrid has a problem with the driver side mirror, when parked under the hot sun for few hours the driver side mirror fails to unfold, I need to give it a small push while pressing the retract button. When the temperature drops it starts working normally.
