Hey, wheels community! This is my first day on this forum. I'm an office going guy in his mid twenties who currently owns a beatdown suzuki's hatchback with not much idea of how buying and reselling of cars work. I'm currently looking to go for a car on installments, I can do 25ish/month and I see one name standing out with the installment plans in this range
Alto VXL (it would be about 1400k with 400k down payment and 22k/month installment). So I need your advise. The only redeeming factor about the car seems to be its fuel economy with some reviewers telling it gives 18KM/L with the AC on but then I've also heard things like "the car has a lot of engine noise, its under powered, and you can hear the annoying sound of engine everytime it shifts a gear when youre on D"
Now the other options I see are some second hand imported cars like Vitz 2k5/2k6 that I could get a local bank to give the similar installment plan on (1300k to 1400k valuation would give me <25k/month installment which is affordable for me at this point), but again used cars come with their own cons like scams and worn out parts and not to mention youre never sure of their fuel economy.
Id really appreciate any advise and suggestion from the good guys at pakwheels.
Cheers
Edit: PS I have a daily commute of atleast 30KM on shahreafaisal so fuel economy matters for me, as it does for any other salary going individual- pretty much the reason why id not go for an old sedan with better features.
