Hi all, I am currently looking to purchase a Japanese hatchback within a budget of 4 million. The car will be used for a weekly commute from Deniyaya to Colombo, and needs to be capable of handling hilly terrain as well as city traffic. To meet my requirements for both fuel economy and engine power, I am considering purchasing a car with a 1000CC+ engine and a fuel consumption rate of 12-18 km/L. There are two options in my mind, 1. Demio 2008-2010 2. Swift 2007-2009 (Swift second generation cars won't be affordable in my budget) What do you guys think about buying a pre-2010 Japanese car these days? Or should I go for something like Perodua or Hyundai? I went through old threads for both of these cars. But there are few questions they won't address in those threads 1. Most of the discussions I found were from the years 2010-2015, but those cars are now around 15 years old. I believe that expert opinions and answers may have changed since then. 2. Given the current fuel restrictions and expenses, I am concerned about the fuel economy of most cars and whether they will be cost-effective in the long term. 3. I am also curious about the impact of import restrictions on spare parts for these cars. Is it still possible to maintain older cars these days, or will it be difficult to find parts and keep them in good condition? Thank you.

Need to know a place where to buy a Japanese bikes like Honda or Yamaha. (Manufactured in Japan)
