Dear @zamza
Why are you trying to buy more than 35 years old corolla .... What exactly you want to do it ?

[CerwinVega]

Dear @salmanshah1

Buying a 10 years old car is not an easy task when you are concerned about reliability and durability .... Normally it takes more than a month to find a clean cultus 2004 or coure 2006 model .... You have to pay extra than market price for its condition and its worth buying

I saw beautifully restored classic Corolla cars on YouTube specially from Triple C Indonesia which really inspired me...

I'll drive and occasionally drifting, i planed for upgraded engine rims and paint job...

What would be worth of a 2008 525d bmw 5 series with 30k on odo. Pristine condition.

Is it worth buying diesel bmw of this age and any issues related to it being a diesel. Like in toyota d4d nozzle blocking is common due to low quality diesel fuel in country.

What will be an approx price of such vehicle.

[CerwinVega]

Dear @zamza
I would not at all recommend you such projects. It will be complete wastage of Time, money and physically and mentally stress ....

The guys demanding 50lac

Dewan maintained and total genuine. by new gear box you mean it was replaced ?

[CerwinVega]

Its a very very Hugh price for a diesel car ....
New gear box means new technology gear box with new style shift stick

Dear @gttx

There are many showrooms in Islamabad for Japanese cars so its not a big issue to find a good BMW.
Secondly I don't recommend you diesel BMW because there are number of reasons .... Go for a patrol 530i or 535i

Can u tell some of the drawbacks for diesel. I want a diesle as i might get some bargain as ppl dont buy it anymore. But if some technical aspects then I will avoid as well.

Sorry for so many questions.

[CerwinVega]

Dear @gttx
There are many reasons
1. Cost of diesel fuel is expensive than patrol.
2. Lots of engine noise as compared to patrol.
3. Due to low fuel quality of diesel engine it keeps on giving troubles with nozzles and cost of diesel maintenance is very very high.
4. Due to poor fuel quality this sensitive diesel technology has less life.
5. In rainy days two of the car engine got seized because of water sucked by the engines by open air intakes ....
6. Low resale all over the world in diesel.
7. Pollution factor

Hey CerwinVega i have question related to buying of imported vehicles.

how one can verify the auction sheet of the car?
how necessary/mandatory the auction sheet is?
What does mean by Grade 4.5 and 4.0 auction sheet.?

One more question how much it cost to register vitz 2010 model? (rough idea)

will appreciate your kind reply.

[CerwinVega]

Dear @kizu
Auction sheet is an authentic document provided by Japanese authorities which sells car through online auctions all over the world .... When you are buying a car online you don't have the actual car in front of you so for ease of buyers they mention each and and every thing about the car on paper.... A normal person cannot verify this sheet because this is meant for traders having specific login and password of the website and buying houses..... Auction grades ranges from 6 to 1 .... Where 6 is for a brand new car and the number goes in descending order with the deteriorating condition of the car

Hey @cerwinvega my 2006 civic vti has started to give problem on petrol. I can't idle. And the rpm goes to 4500 max. It seems missing when I floor the accelerator. But, works perfectly on cng. The fuel pump was ok according to the mechanic. He said something about fuel injector being faulty. Would a faulty fuel inject or affect the performance on cng as well or not? And what should be done? Getting a kaabli injector would be ok or should I get something else?
The car has clocked 180k kms.

Dear @burnoutrevenge

I am a little bit confused because a car with faulty injectors doesnt start and if only one injector is weak then it starts missing but at the same time you are saying car is increasing rpm to 4500 at idling which normally happens when throttle body needs cleaning .....

Please get the throttle body cleaned and properly fixed and then update me with the new status ....

[burnoutrevenge]

No I meant ke it can't stay at 800 rpm at idle. It shuts off automatically. However, when I floor it at idle, the rpm goes to 4500 max. Never higher than that. And goes to 4500 really slowly.
