Hi, just wanted to get your guys opinion on the 3 gen Mazda3 (2015-2018).
Looking to get one and want to see if you recommend it and other details like maintenance costs etc.
If I do get one it will be the 1.6l variant as the 2.0 is out of budget.
Also, wanted to find out if the 2018 model...
I'm looking to buy my first car and found a 2015 BMW 316i with 126k on the clock for R200k.
It has full service history but my concern is maintenance after the fact. I believe that they are very expensive to maintain give the service cost and parts.
As an alternative I was looking at a...
I want to find out what was the new list price of various vehicles for different years and see how much they have depreciated by comparing them to today's used vehicle prices.
Does anyone know if it's possible to get this info?
Example, suppose I want to see what was the price of brand new BMW...
GOOD DAY FORUM.
I was in an accident over the weekend and the car is likely going to be written off.
Assuming the two scenarios:
Get about a R60k payout for the car
No payout (maybe some cash for scrapping the car)
What would be recommended given the current state of the car market?
Some...
Sorry everyone for yet another what car to buy post but this forum always seems like a great place to get feedback from a range of car owners.
My budget is around R80 000, any cheaper is a bonus. Key considerations are reliability, fuel economy, manual gearbox, reasonable parts and servicing, a...
Hello Everyone,
As per the title, anyone own\owned a 10th Gen Honda Civic 1.8 or 1.5T?
Anyone care to share comments or experience?
I currently have the 8th gen sedan, which is rock solid and never skipped a beat in the 10 years I have owned it.
Thinking of upgrading in a year or 2 and quite...
I'm looking to buy a new car and I managed to find a 2011 BMW 116i 3 DR Manual for R139k with only 85000km's on the clock. IT's from SMG (An approved BMW dealer) and is really in immaculate condition. However, I'm hesitant to even touch a second hand BMW and rather go for a used Ford Focus or...
Hey folks
Looking for some advice from the forum to help guide me on a purchase. I'm looking at buying a 2013, F30 320i (100 000/km) or 2012 320D (137 000/km) off of friends. Looking around I've seen a variety of sources making note of timing chain problems being an issue with earlier F30...

I'm looking at buying a used 2010 3rd Gen Kia Sportage 2.0 CRDi Auto with a full service history and 139 000km on the clock (R150 000). Is this a decent car to get? Does it have any historical issues that usually pop-up and would it be reliable to buy with this mileage?
Any advice...

I ask this (How much value is behind Low KM's on a used car?) because Im about to buy a used car, 2010 Polo 1.6 comfort line, 96 000KM.
Since my first car I have always ached and worried:
"Oh, do I really need to drive my car today, it will just add on unneeded KM's, thus devaluing my car"...
So im in the final stages of buying a 1.6 Polo Comfort line (the facelift model [R6] ) and this will be an upgrade from a little VW CitiSport 1.4i (2008), I really loved my little golf, it was nippy, had that clean Citi sound and gave a satisfying grumble when you accelerated. So no I'll be...
