Too sad in EK no one looks for Cars such as Puegeot 406 , Ford Mondeo, BMW e36 under 1.8 million :(

people are scared to try out new things ban....just see how sri lankan people would like spend above 2m for older toyotas...some of them now look like walking carts....they are scared of repair costs..

    Repair costs are not that much big if you maintain properly :) Even i cant believe people buy cars like viva elite for 2.0 million. when i was looking to buy to a 406, 70% people said NO, its very hard to maintain blah blah....
    Now i am using it for more than one years there was no heavy repairs

    I never ask others when buying something ban...what others prefer is not my preference ne...i just try out my luck...good for you not even a 121 can come close to a comfort n luxury in 406..:yes:

    you don't know how much people forced me to buy a toyota 121 G when i was in love with a mazda 3...I just brought the mazda and now i'm the happiest person on earth...1 year not a single repair,I may not wil be able to sell it for 2.8m after 5 years but i can sell it for at least 2.3m after 5 years of sheer enjoyment...

    sirawata even AXIO cannot match to the comfort of 406...
    The only problem of 406 is second hand market, you cannot sell quickly as other Japanese, but one who buys a AXIO for 35laks could buy a 406 for 17 or 16 laks and put remaining 17laks in a FD..

    If you drive it for long time period its better to buy your dream car ;) thats what i did :) even 121s depreciate according to the economy of country and purchasing power of people, its all about how quick you can sell it :D

    yeah machan most of EK3s and EG8s are ruined by tuning and modifying :baffled:
    no machan I bought a Peugeot 406. As i know EK3 is little bit expensive to maintain with compared to other japanease sedans, but you can't compare it with N16 FB15 AE110.

    :yes:
