I think you can buy a 2004/2005 Civic in this budget, I'm talking about a not so well maintained Prosmatec.

My friend was selling his 2005 Civic Prismatec a few days back for 1350k with transmission issues and overall the body was in a relatively bad shape.

I'd suggest staying away from older cars, getting a post 2012 Cultus (I've read somewhere they updated/added a catalytic converter in 2011 or 2012) could be a better deal.

Hey everyone! I'm still looking for the best deal on a used car. I raised my budget to 1.4 million and checked out a lot of cars on PakWheels. I reached out to sellers, but only a few got back to me. I also found it hard to find time to visit them.

I took my cousin with me, and we looked at a couple of Civics. One was all rusty, and the other had frame damage (I saw the inspection report, so that was lucky). Both sellers wanted 1.5 million.
Since I'm not a great driver and haven't driven a sedan yet, I'm leaning toward a vti oriel Prosmatic.

Right now, my big problem is that I don’t know much about cars or anyone who can check the engine and suspension for me. I can’t afford to pay for inspections on every car I visit. I tried to do some research, but I still don’t really know how to check for engine or transmission problems, a blown head gasket, or suspension issues.

Can someone share some key things to check first when I go to see a car? This way, I can get an inspection before making a final deal

Right now, I’m looking for a car just for myself, not for the family. Six months ago, I wanted to buy a 2008-2009 Cultus EFI, but then I started seeing a lot of them on the road with their hoods up. The Cultus is a good choice, but its dashboard doesn’t have a spot for an Android panel

I have android infotainment installed in my 2011 Cultus, so yeah it's possible, that too without any modifications. But I'd still suggest staying away from Pak Suzuki. Generally aything with a T or H on it's front grill is much more reliable.
