Lancer GLX sport handling and caring

[rickbath]

Hey folks... need some advise.

 

Might be a n00b question as i m just getting my first car after passing my license. 

I have looked at a whole range of cars... from the old skool Civic ESI, swift, Impreza, Altis, Colt.

 

I finally nailed it down to the GLX or maybe an EX left 1++ 2yrs on the COE

Is there anything which i should look out for ? 

 

I have been told that best is to send it to a mechanic for a second opinion. Anyone knows of a good mechanic well versed in GLX ?

Hi bro,

 

I just bought over a manual GLX in a few months ago.

Renew it for 5 years.

 

When took over, had changed the normal wear and tear parts and normal full maintenance (timing belt, etc)

 

So far running well.

 

FC is around 12-13.

 

Only thing i dislike is the car and headroom is low. Lower than my previous Kia Pica....

Find it a bit hard to get in/out of the car due to the low level, esp for my old parents.

Bro may i know why u renew 5 instead of 10 years??

 

isnt 10 years better deprecation for this workhorse?

Never take the ESI.

Old cars are a mixed bag,more so when potential for modding is high.

Impreza,cry in one corner when you see your petrol bill.

 

You should buy a Hyundai Elantra (Avante) or a Kia Forte.

These are good cars that are better than Jap in Vfm.

 

(For any new car owner consideration)

Yes 10 years is better.

 

But I dun want to take a loan.

And use the remaining cash for some other purposes.
