    meaning buying a newer car with small engine is a down grade
    hmm. even though 121 is a old car still it had a good pickup and comfortability. I feel like I will miss those if I buy a new small car.

    Yes that regret is not worth the new car smell. You will also miss relatively cheap straightforward repairs also. I mean if you have enough budget go for a newer car by all means but if not just hold on to the 121.

    You have a 121?

    I'd definitely keep it over an aqua or a GP5 especially if you bought it relatively new. It's next to impossible to find a 121 in good condition and I feel a used aqua or a GP5 won't have much to offer you over a pristine 121

    Gp5 එකනං සුපිරි. ඉඩත් තියෙනව, හොඬේ අකුලල අලියෙක් උනත් දාගන්න පුලුවන්. ක්ලච් අවුල තමයි ඉතිං කේස් එක...
    ඇක්ව එකත් වාහනේ අවුලක් නෑ...
    ඒකෙක් හොන්ඩ එකේ ක්ලච් වගේම බැටරි කේස් එක එනවනෙ ඉතිං...

    ඩේලි දුවනවනං, ඇක්ව එකට යන්න.
    ඉඳහිටල දුවනවනං gp5 එකට යන්න...

    121 is a straight forward no bullshit car which is good on your purse in the Long run. if i were you. i would restore it to the former glory and keep it. we had a Corolla 122 Luxel 1800CC Model Back in day with the family. Interior is a bliss compared to the later Axio 141 and Hybrid models.. Materials are far better than newest cars..

    Saw a 2019 petrol only Axio for sale in fb. Interior is basically a vitz.

    I don't think you can even do this with modern hybrid systems and CVT transmissions

    You can't rebuild these units with brand new internals and make it run like it did out of the factory after 20-25 years of use like you can with cars from 2000-2010 era
