currently my friend is lookin for a second hand car
his requirements is not high..he said what he need is power, sleek and
stylish and must have the front headlamp can close and open when it needed.
his budget is around 25k-35k..
i was thinking through of his requirements and had shortened the list to
honda prelude(second generation, coupe) and my favourite car of all time
also..the Astina`!!

so i would like help him to figure out these areas for the Astina :

1. fuel consumption
2. power
3. reliability
4. Interior space( legroom especially)
5. where to service?
6. does it come with digital speed meter gauge?

so pls share ur comment or experience with me~! thanx~!!

haiya QG also here ar.....no more jokes ler...this is MAZDA area
ar....anyway would gip u some input on Astina 1993 sohc 1.6 carb. on looks
its funny cos both cars look very different, so up to your fren whether
want more curved body or straight like da honda. engine wise...honestly i
recommend definitely the astina with 1.8 dohc EFI...but here goes 1.6

fuel nothing special, roughly 10km/litre..if leg heavy then different
power??? its 1.6 sohc ler...enuff to move lor i can say
so old many things might need change, then tendency for weak driveshaft
interior ok...rear legroom cramp as usual like other small cars
service anywhere ler...ownself also can...ask others for good places
local model no ler...but i think digital look like toy, dun u think so?

interior astina more modern looking, curves everywhere wan...very nice
company claim dat fabric inside is fireproof wan...

i am guessing budget caused you to have these 2 choices..they are old so
look very very carefully
