[rev.adeelrashid]

now a days i am planning to buy a car for family use. i am in great confusion to buy. i am buying for first time. Which Car is Best for family use? Cultus or Mira, Move, Wagnor Strigray, Honda n one? kindly suggest me one with good fuel economy, part wise, maintenance wise best option to buy.

[dayrider]

budget? number of people in the family, and your knowledge about cars(1-10, 10 being pro level)

[nfssaad]

for you best option is local assembled vehicle, or japanese vehicle with local model (new suzuki alto)

[capsat]

how many people ( adults) in vehicle at any given time. Local 660 Suzuki is good as family mule for 4 adults loaded anytime. Fuel average is very reasonable for new car. Trunk capacity for school bags is enough but for travel luggage it is almost absent.

present booking price for PKDM Alto 660 is 1.5 million , and it will be up by 5% after currency exchange rate readjustment.

buying a used 3 year old scrap auction JDM vehicle is not wise. The mechanical & engine parts support is from scrap yards.

just for shaska of cabin ballllloon (air bags) and champi palish sparkle, spending an amount which can bring brand new warranty supported car is bit unwise.

as end note - it is your money your choice !

Bro if you are buying a car for the first time, I would suggest to go for preferably brand new, locally assembled cars:

You can start looking for FAW V2 and Suzuki Alto, if having a budget of ~15 lac PKR (FAW V2 offers more value for money than locally assembled Alto). Then is Wagon R, and if having budget of ~20 lac PKR, Kia Picanto is strongly recommended, otherwise Cultus / Celerio. If budget is around ~25 lac PKR, then Corolla and Ciaz are strongly recommended (City may be avoided. Now it no more offers value for money. Ciaz would be a much better choice).

with good fuel economy, part wise, maintenance wise best option to buy

PKDM Celerio / Cultus and Alto.

[anon35615524]

If you have min. / no knowledge about cars, then used, locally assembled cars and locally used JDMs may be avoided. However, if going for a 4.5 / above grade JDM car with verifiable auction sheet, and which has not been used locally, then they may also be kept in consideration, and car which matches / exceeds Celerio / Cultus and Alto: Toyota Passo / Daihatsu Boon!

Alto is 660 cc car and may not feel powerful when you will be requiring some. I would personally suggest to go for at least 1000 cc, if hatchback, and 1300-1500 cc at least, if Sedan.

Buss Dayrider Bhai, kya kaha and kia ja sakta hai?

[dayrider]

Sabar... Aur dua k phal meetha ho, this climate change will take a toll on our food industry too

[rev.adeelrashid]

15 lac, 5 family members, no knowledge

[dayrider]

Either a wagon R or a cultus, pkdm, the newest one available

[anon35615524]

Do keep in mind brand new FAW V2 too, if having budget of 15 lac PKR.

[ziaullah08]

Avoid any 660 no mater local Alto or JDM Mira/Move/N-One etc.
Priorities wise:
1 Wagon R New
2 Honda City 2011+ used but only if in Genuine Condition and less than 50000 km driven
3. 2017/2018 current model Cultus Manual VXR
4. Vitz or Passo 2013-2014 Genuine Condition (Grade 3.5+) and less than 50000 Km driven
5. 2012+ Toyota corolla GLI 1.3 Manual (but its not much fuel efficient but parts/maintenance is economical)

[dayrider]

Never suggest jdms to those with zero knowledge. That's like sending goats to the lions den

[ziaullah08]

Agreed for very beginners, but if some one can get advise from Pakwheels forums or expert in his circle, he can manage (ex. Vitz parts availability is no issue in any area of Pakistan), because in my personal experience (I am using since last 5 years) and never got a trouble (so far only changing routine Oil/Filer change)

[dayrider]

Very few are kind enough to give time to help find a trouble free car, usually the result is disaster because people get fed up with seeing crappy cars and lying owners most of the time

[ziaullah08]

Lets leave this decision on person who is seeking advise. (JDM vitz/passo is at 4th rank in my priority list).
Nothing more from my end.
