LIANA Lxi/Sports 2007, in between 650K to 750K with CNG.
New CNG conversion costs around 60K these days. So evaluate yourself for Petrol only car.

I still didn't upgrade, will take around a half a month more
And for updates from my side, my AC compressor clutches got screwed up and started making weird sounds. Over inspection last night it was found that only the bushes needs to be changed and upper side minor adjustment.
Thanks God I was saved from changing the compressor at the very last moment after making the deal
Today will go back to assemble the system after office and will tell you peolpe if the worked as before, or I have to get a new compressor.
Can anyone suggest me the prices of Sanden and Success Compressor new? And which one will be better these days amongst? I have the Sanden original setup of the stock car.

the circumstances i have been through in the last 1 year or so have changed my thinking a lot.. today i cannot spend much on maintaining a vehicle in top notch condition.. to me cars now only mean to take us from one place to another in a rather respectable way, thats it i have experienced recently that ignoring the looks of a car for a while, a 2.3 lac car can give me much more pleasure than a 4.5 lac Baleno and more importantly i have enough left in my pocket! i believe just like good times don't last forever, bad times don't last forever either.. perhaps when things get better, it might change my opinion on maintaining a vehicle in top condition once again

shqamar (shqamar) 2012-01-25 05:30:00 +0500 #2926

i utterly agree with usmanansari , car is meant to take us to one place to another and we care about them in a respected manner , but now a days life is too fast , our requirements are way to big and our earning is limited and than we have a family to take care of aswell so in all that things we are paranoid and sacrifies our passion to its limits , we pray for usman and every one around that GOD give them enough to fulfil all there wishes and requirements !!

zank (zank) 2012-01-25 05:30:24 +0500 #2927

I wish you good luck here in that.

By the way, it is not easy now to maintain in top notch condition, atleast to me, due to the declining curve of savings vs earnings. And most importantly the gap between the 'need' and 'want' is widening very fastly.

i am using motorcycle nowadays, never ever ridden a motorcycle ever in my entire life.. i take out the Lancer only when i have to take my family along!

I have sold my ride at 770,000 Rs. May Allah shower his great blessings on the one who has bought it and may the ride serves him the best.

I drove it for 43100 KMs. Never incurred any sort of mechanical problem. MashAllah all the years passed with it were a gift.

regards,

here I am. Alas the ride is gone. Yes the life is fast and things are changing. There was a time I had mehran. Then I had Toyota Corolla 86. And afterwards brand new 2008 Cultus Vxli (My first brand new car). And now its time for another upgrade.

zank (zank) 2012-01-26 05:12:40 +0500 #2935

^ What are you going for this time...?
Wish you good luck all along for your progress, hope you keep sailing smoothly.

zank (zank) 2012-01-26 05:18:57 +0500 #2936

@Shoaib: As you were using LCD, I want to ask which touch screen is better these days in economy. My main purpose is not watching, but listening to DVD music mainly and attaching a reverse camera and GPS.

syed-shoaib (syed-shoaib) 2012-01-26 06:15:06 +0500 #2937

Many many jazakAllahs for your prayers. May Allah keep showering greatest of his blessing on you too. This time I am going for Toyota Vitz 2006, 1.3L, Fresh import. inshaAllah.

syed-shoaib (syed-shoaib) 2012-01-26 06:22:10 +0500 #2938

I was using a simple TFT LCD Monitor. It was not a touch screen. If you want an indash touch screen you can try some chinease versions like rockmars. That screen will be small as the cultus dash board has little room. If you want to listen only to DVD music and do not want touch screen then go for Kenwood or poineer DVD player.

I am not an expert in this regard. I had kenwood DVD player with an on-dash LCD. It was not a touch screen and it didnt have any navigation in it either.
