I am quite serious about getting a car. I told you earlier in the thread that main drawback in Lancer is "Resale" and expensive spare parts. Rest of the items are secondary which don't actually take part in decision making.
In fact, I was personally in favor of buying this car, I have no offense at all as far as the car itself is concerned but I had to list the cons what I thought.
Further, I am not a son of landlord and cannot ruin my hard earned money by spending on this car. Main reason being a typical Pakistani mentality, what if I have to sell my car in case I need money. Therefore, before buying something, everyone defines some parameters. In my case, resale is the first and foremost.
For this reason, I am going to visit Itwar bazar tomorrow for finding some used Vti 2005/06. I hope this clarifies.
