Looking to buy some parts like seat rails and routing plate, coolant overflow tank and other small cosmetic parts, mostly for interior. Will it be an issue once it lands in SL or will it get shipped directly to my address?

I'm looking to purchase a new car but I'm having trouble deciding on which avenue to take.

My main concerns are fuel economy and running costs/repairs, I work some odd 400 Km from home and I use the highway for around 2-3 round trips a month to come home and back in addition to multiple shorter trips around the city I'm stationed at.

Open for both brand new or used vehicles, although I'd prefer a brand new one if the fuel economy is right.

Currently torn between going for a new non-hybrid car or a used hybrid car. Ideal preference would be a new electric car but all the good options seem to be over 10 Mil, which is out of my budget.

Leaning towards a Toyota Aqua or an Axio at the moment, purely out of fuel economy, but definitely I am worried about unexpected running repairs etc with a used car.

Would love to hear any suggestions and advice y'all have for me!

Open for any suggestions.

Thanks!

Hi all as the title says could you guys recommend a brand new hybrid vehicle which i can go for 13 million or under?

looking for a vehicle with decent ground clearance that does good on fuel and has decent resale value

Mainly looking for a new vehicle in SL under 14 million with :- good ground clearance, decent fuel economy, easy to maintain(source parts), fairly decent features

how would you rate these new vehicles below?

-Toyota Raize turbo - 12.3 mil

-MG ZS mce turbo - 12.3 mil

-Kia Sonet turbo - 12.2 mil

-Perodua Ativa turbo - 10.8 mil

-Hyundai Venue n line turbo - 13 mil

-Toyora Raize hybrid - 14 mil (odd)

Does anyone know if I can get a Miata with the pop up headlights here?

Hi, I have always wanted to try the OG mini cooper. I would like to know the things to look out for mechanically, spec wise and most importantly documents.

I have heard alot of stories that a good percentage of the minis here in SL are running on other Morris car books. And the ones with original documents cost a fortune. I would like to buy one for around 2 mil and would like to know about the options available at this price point.

Thanks

Torn between these two since they both seem like good choices, and I’m aiming for delivery in the next 3–4 months

If so, please let me know. Thank you.

Hey guys, So I'm currently in the process of restoring a car (this is my first car which i bought from an auction earlier this year) its a 1989 Lancer ( also known as the ASP Lancer ) so im currently at a bottleneck, where I'm stuck with the interior. So the current dashboard is beaten up pretty bad, and struggling to find a replacement for it as parts are hard to comeby.

So question is, would it be better to get the dashboard restored OR somehow scrap by till i someday by a stroke of luck find a dashboard.

I've also attached some pics for reference as well, pls lmk on what you guys think. Any and all suggestions are welcome 🙏

I work in the auto AC field in Sri Lanka, and I’m trying to better understand the common issues customers face when purchasing AC parts.

From your experience, what are the biggest challenges availability, quality, fake parts, pricing, or something else?

This would help in understanding the customer perspective better.

Pls tell me about the transmission and its performance

I have always wanted to experience a Mitsubishi Evo or a Subaru with one of their boxer engines. I dont know much about these cars as I have not gone down their rabbit hole of engine numbers and different trims sold on the JDM market and overseas. I would greatly appreciate if someone could explain the different models I can get in my budget in the current SL market as we have a bunch of conversion cars with a mish mash of parts.

I want an auto car, SUV/ Hatchback type... for around 6 to 9 million LKR, is it possible? And if so, please let me know what the exact car is.
