  1. @matroska as you said can i know more about this variant ? i mean i have seen much 141 corolla in the market with lower mileage. is there any particular reason for it ? like fuel consumption ? Or any other reason ? where the same 141 axio variant is higher with mileage and higher in price. im wondering what choice is the correct
  2. any more reviews or experiences on Hyundai Elantra ?
  3. Yeah true. your point is true when it comes to the highlighted text in ur comment . any suggestion i can go for ? other than mazda 3? cause im little bit worried that 1. resale price 2. parts and maintenance 3. people who knows about the car to get stuffs done
  4. Can u please suggest some vehicles that i can get on this bugdet. even though my mind setup for the mazda 3, person who is so much with cars ( i would say a car seller ) who is a friend of mine. advice if you go for the mazda 3 forget about the resale price. and since there are less no of vehicles, it will be hard to find parts, people who know to maintain that car where i have to be depend on the company only FD1 is good but petrol consumption is every low. + as u said the ground clearance. i drove one which is one of my friend's and very time I put into a small pit my heart stopped. lol I was looking for a SUV cause me and my family goes on long rides as well. where i felt so packed with those cars type where had to put those stuffs in everywhere. + the ground clearance and also the comfy. as i said im ok with mazda 3 but in the same time afraid of the resale price ( i dont need to sell it for higher price but need a fair depreciation ). and the parts and maintain resources
  5. Hi Thanks for your advice, i would like to know why u not recommending diesel suvs? can u please share your insights or the experience? and you are saying its not really good for colombo trips cause of why ? maintain cost is high? or any other facts?
  6. 1. Yes and No. I choose mazda 3 cause of the elegenent look which is all new type of sedans has, and the good reviews over the country im living in. and also it is in my budget of 4.5 mil. and it has some highlighted features im looking for ( such as newer vehicle, comforty, fuel consumption) yes of course it is in another segment. but when it comes to sedan this is one of my choice and when it comes to suv the sportage. so its like one or another even though its different segments. 2. im buying mainly for my family and occasionally my wife drove thats why im looking for automatic. also im frequently flying back n forth to sri lanka and need a good drive when im in sri lanka for trips and long distance comfort travel + other than that vehicle will run each and very day with short distance in colombo.
  7. Hi All, Sorry for asking this question again ! Please Im looking for some opinion as im not much touch with the current sri lanka vehicle market and the vehicle models ( as im living in aboard) So i would like to ask the same question that what is a good choice when it comes to 4.0 -4.5 Million ( max looking for is 4.5 but can stretch to 4.6) What i prefer as follow Fuel Efficiency ( something where it is manageable ) Non-Hybrid Suv or Sedan ( prefer SUV ) Prefer some new technologies ( such as traction control, cruise control whatever it look smart ) Automatic transmission Some Ground Clearance Need to have room for 5 people ( to travel comfortably ) not a hacked vehicle if SUV with some Off Road capabilities ( not extreme or hard off road) Not so Old Vehicle Not a hatchback ( except Mazda 3) Currently I have in my mind ( i will update if i get any other good choices ) Mazda 3 ( 2014-2015 Model) Sportage 2011-2012 ( Diesel Tiptronic - 4WD ) Things i dropped Civic, GPs, Vezel Hyundai Tucson ( i dont like the design) Santa fe ( old version 2008 ) Premio/ Allion ( most are hacked, over priced same like 121) Chinese brands ( eg Tivilio) Ssangyong Questions i have Any other suggestions? or recommendations ? Do u have experience or anything to share regarding mazda 3 and its maintenance experiences ? Do u have experience or anything to share regarding Sportage 2011-12 and its maintenance experiences ? Pros and cons with Mazda 3 ? Pros and cons with Sportage? Any related experience over the cars/suvs on my budget ? Im sorry again if i ask this question again. cause its really hard to find a updated thread regarding this topic !
  8. Go for viva elite !! i have used viva elite from 2014 and still using it. it never failed me. good fuel consumption. ride is good also and also since i do fast driving i have seen that quick boost of the pickup is available with viva elite. where ac compressor is getting detach on sudden increase of the rpm which is damn cool where you get more power and shifting gears fastly. ( automatic) and also you can customize the car with stuffs which is looking decent. i remember i have drove more than 1000 km on 3 days continuously (of course i slept on night). and mine is about for 100000km and i did the small small repairs at the correct time. my only most expensive repair was ac which was around 20,000. Thats the maximum cost i have spent and still running like a baby. highly satisfied and highly recommend vehicle if you are looking around that amount cause you need to think about maintenance and fuel economy too.
  9. I'm also having the same questions mentioned above. im also looking to buy a sportage from 2011 onwards. what should i consider? what are the common issues that sportage gets? and also the fuel efficiency? how about the maintain cost and the parts availability? Any other tips that an experienced kia owners would be highly appreciated !
  10. thankz @Praboda Fernando for your suggestions and for the safety please refer this
  11. Thankz @matroska nicey explained most of my points what are the unique problems which are for swift ? And can you please tell me the pros and cons for lancer cs2 and bj5p ? Yes vios is bit above the margin (i mean a well maintained one ) and there is another option it is kia picanto . And suggestions about that ? Normally 2011 models going around 21 agree with your view on patta gahala senario and yeah old ones cannot compare but i feel like 110 and fb15s are damn old and interior are already recked. GD1 , aeria , city (malasiyan ) are in my price range but seems it doesnt have a value in market dont know why can you explain more information about cvt problem and its symptoms?
  12. Hi @kusumsiri , @Jor-el i have read those. and even facebook got shared those. in those elakiri forum it has a battle between used Japanese car owners and new indian vehicle buyers. i went through closely with those mentioned points . most are not valid since they do not compared with same catergory vehicle ( obviously you cannot buy a high end, high safety vehicle for a low budget value ) and i research on those points mentioned with mechanics , people who already have these , people who had this for more than 8 months who lives in india etc. so comparing to those main problems are not one signal light , hand brake leaver is not straight, two speakers , head light leveler is manual etc but there is a doubt with seeping water into cabin area engine noise and performance issue when it comes into fully load ( 54HP ) Front axle is not painted there for it will tend to decay oil container is plastic and no skid plate in here main problem will be the seeping water into cabin area which is a manufacturing issue for some cars ( still Renault India , Renault Sri Lanka doesn't response to this issue.
  13. Yeah good comment @gayanath and thanks for the comment. Im my case i dont personally like alto and vivia elite not cause of car is not good it my personal favoration. Any other options?
