I'm looking for a budget car
My budget is 10 lac estimated
I am not a big fan of Suzuki as of now
What is the best car I can get
Fuel average should be good
also need to go out of city sometimes like from Karachi to Islamabad
Opinions needed from experts please to help me decide

at this budget, being fan or not doesn't matter much sadly : (

your options are a Cultus old model or Mehran if you want good condition cars.

but if you have a lot of time to spend going to mechanics, then maybe you can also find a Liana, an old old city or corolla too.

Which model of cultus should I dive into?
As Fuel Average is my concern
I've kept Cultus 2006 but the average was too bad. like 8-9 km/l

I've heard corolla gives good fuel average but not sure if its a high maintenance car or not

corolla is not a high maintenance car at all, but the problem is finding a good condition corolla in 1 million rupees : (

the rates have skyrocketted so much now ..
the 2006 one was carburetor engine 3 cylinder car..
try to find a good condition EFI cultus... anything from 2008 to 2010-11 whichever comes under your budget, but make sure it has good engine and overall condition..

and what about Cultus EURO 2?
pardon if I'm asking silly questions

Massive_One (Massive_One) 2022-06-15 21:18:32 +0500 #6

yes, euroII is the one with EFI engine, VXRi VXLi , Euro2 all are with 4 cylinders EFI engines .. which were launched in late 2007 onwards

what would you suggest for Coure Automatic?
Is it a good option to with as per my budget?

Cuore is a good car comfort wise,
but the problem is,
the automatic gearbox has only 3 gears, so i am not sure how good it will perform on highway speed ..
we have one manual cuore in our family... the fuel avg. is terrible for an 800 cc car... it gives roughly 10-11 in city and 14-15 on highway : (
