As the topic, I'm planning to buy a Saga to replace my trusty old wira (second car) which I use to go to work everyday.

Since last few months, I spend a lot of money repairing so many problems with my Wira. 1st the alternator, then comes the distributor, then again the starter, wheel bearings, clutch, accelerator pedal cable.....the list just goes on.... :-( :-(

I think it's time to change. I think I'm going to buy a Saga FLX 1.6. Do you guys have any other suggestions?

Thanks.

MY Saga BLM less than one year adi got problems like axle got problem,
got it replaced, lucky under warranty and now my saga starting to NAG if
u get what i mean...cant stand the noise :biggrin:

Buy new car also depends on luck...:wink: If not just get the lowest range of Myvi Models

So far, my kelisa year 06, Touchwood no problem from the day 1 I bought.
Got it check and my mech told me of all the Kelisa he had repaired, mine is in
the best condition so far...:biggrin:

good luck. since it will be under warranty you will be spending only time to go SC to get problems fixed. but Time = Money, in the end lose money also like your Wira.

but since you are muscular, no choice lah. Viva is too small.
