You must be joking, with all the threads relating to Corsa problems and heavy petrol consumption on MyBB. :whistling:

?runs for cover as Rouxy will be furious.
They drink petrol like a fish... and mine is maintained in tip top condition :/

Corsa B and C are thristy with questionable build quality. Corsa D and the new E are class leaders.

Sadly my parents aren't into private deals, more for buying from dealerships lol.

I saw a suzuki! It looks cool

Your parents are right :D

Gotta know a lot about cars to buy one privately.

BTW happy birthday and enjoy your car. Drive carefully dude.

Lol true, dealerships are better I believe.
Suzuki is so small though and doesn't seem like a car for a guy :(

Something to take into consideration perhaps is cost of insurance, get a couple of quotes for different cars you like, no point in buying a car for R150K if the insurance is 2,5k a month.. Second hand cars usually have cheaper insurance also.

Kia Optima looks great. Price may not be so great lol

I like cars that have some cool design like that.

So you are saying your parents cant really afford it but you want them to buy you a car for R150k?
Doesn't make much sense to me, you are a student, get something cheap. You can buy yourself a car when you are qualified and have a job rather than taking the money from your parents.

I meant my parents can't really afford to get me a too expensive car, I didn't say they can't afford one at all. I would never ask my parents if I knew they couldn't. I'm not that of a mean or ungrateful person. After all they are helping me with my studies and yes i might work next year too.

150 is like a maximum, it's not like I would really go for one at the price.
