i just check with some of used car dealer.. i was shocked that they told
me that the market value for 1996 wira is around 10K or less.. im
planning to trade in my wira.. but then i get around 19k hutang 3 yrs to
go loan with the bank ( full settlemnt )..

after that situation, i think i have to pakai my wira till it completely
hancur..

Used cars and even new car sales are pretty pathetic.

Drove past an open air toyota car yard in sri Serdang today and saw so
many units of unsold avanza, innova, vios, corolla altis and yaris.

Same in Penang a few months back near gurney drive behind evergreen
laurel hotel.

How to launch the new vios then?

sell cheaper lah..

my wira 95 market price less than 10k..but d car is properly maintained
except for bubbles appearing on d paintwork on d roof..been sticking to the
5k km oil change rule since 1995..spent alot of money in making d car tip
top..it's not worth changing new car in malaysia except u hav lotsa cash to
spare..some ppl dont mind installment up till 9 yrs..mine's an old car and
i'm planning to use it until the car scrapped..at least i dont hav to
headache about monthly installment.

Keep the car in gud condition and use it for another 5 years......

my 97 yrs wira, clocked 190,000km, up to this moment no body bubbles,
going to change timing belt for 2nd time soon, driver-side power window
motor changed once, replaced with a 2nd hand carb (autochoke failure),
break light bulbs changed few times, one of the headlight bulb replaced
AND the rest are still original. No complaints for normal short distance
(hardly outstation now) drive, happy need no to pay
installments.......but do not expect glamours and power from this old man
car. Happy to keep it as 2nd car forever! (very minimun maintainance).

absobers has been replaced few times......these are the components i
spent most money on.

ack, u're korreck. u from mana?

For us who owned >10 years old wira, better keep it, modify it or pimp it
coz tak laku alreadi. Few months ago I've check the price, almost
fainted. Make decision to keep it to my cucu or at least try to get 75%
road tax rebate.

BTW, I've just put iridium plugs. Talk about old horse with new teeth.

Still trying to kumpul enough money to 'pimp my ride'. Is there any
production house to do 'Pimp my Ride' or 'overhaulin' programme locally?
If do, call me. I got 3 units of old national cars. It will will be nice
to see the cars with unimaginable gadgets.

p/s: Bila mau 'teh tarik session' with these old skool wiras or sagas?
