Mehran
atleast youre getting a brand new product with warranty and an amazing economy........ amazing resale...... and if you drive it safely like a car and not morvin gold rally race it will be a safe option. have kept a brand new one since aug 2010 and am extremely happy with it MASHALLAH.
nothing wrong with pak suzuki and mehran its only mindset of youngsters who have yet to start earning on their own and buying on their own without papas help.
agree that the quality is crap. would be so much better if they give japanese grade quality like they did with fx and alto based mehran in early 90s. so much worth the money.
a brand new mehran costs 6.5 lack
a brand new corrolla costs 17 lack
a brand new city costs 16 lack
a brand new civic costs 20 lack
all of the above have crappy quality as compared to their Japanese import counterparts. start using the civic and city like a donkey on daily runner and then see the total cost born on the buyer in 5 year and minus the depreciation and pathetic resale value..... in case of corolla u still get the base model dubba corolla , worst quality assembly in the world which looses money with time...
with the mehran u abuse it like a donkey , u save up on cheap spares , exceptionally amazing fuel average , and you win in the end with a high resale value.
this is still the poor mans luxury car... and as time is passing middle class and now even upper middle class is opting for the same.
the upper class and the influential will always have best access to anything in life thanks to their power and funds.
i sympathize with your frustration , sharing a similar one i have learnt to compromise. i suggest you immigrate to uae , usa or japan if you really want to enjoy cars.
In pakistan everything is going down the drain.....
