hi, i'm a student and i'm interested in pursuing my dad to get me a optra 5. it has a unique and expensive look.

was looking at prices on the net and a 2006 to 2007 car ranges form 40k to 45k. mileage ranges between 35k to 50k respectively. is it a worth buy? maintainance has to been done myself at my own expenses. (don't want to trouble my dad). is this car suitable for a young driver like me? do you think this car suits a student like me?

also i'm a little afraid on the gearbox as i see many optra users are facing gearbox problems. any clarification?
hope to see reviews. your reviews is very much appreciated.

thank you in advance.
regards havenesh

As a student go get yourself a Proton Saga, its easy on the pocket, its new and has pretty good design. But if you're intrested in an Optra try www.mychevyclub.com or www.mychevyclub.net (.net requires membership fees)
The following are my current and my future rides:
2012: VW Sicrocco 2.0T (its a moving target...)
2010: Proton Saga SE 1.3
2009: Suzuki Swift 1.5
2005: Chevrolet Optra 1.8Lt
