[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1064590152, member: 2429"] Ok I interpret a few things based on your own words : 1. You can't drive that well since you haven't driven in a while. 2. You'll need to drive long distance 3. You want good FC 4. Budget does not seem to be a big issue. Here's my thoughts : 1. A Kelisa that old will be expensive to maintain. Parts will need changing and the insurance will on the high side since it's 9 years old (if not mistaken regardless of market price the minimum insured amount must be 12k and you'll get a 5% loading charge due to age). If you have the money to repair the Kelisa and replace all the seals, gaskets and worn parts after buying the car, then it's a good idea to buy the Kelisa. Seals, gaskets and mountings aren't cheap for the Kelisa so put aside about 4k all in to do a once over replace-worn-stuff-including-tyres if you buy 2nd hand. Also bear with the insurance amount which isn't really a lot. 2. Your driving skill isn't what it used to be, then you're likely to get into fender bender accidents. An old car like the Kelisa won't hurt your feelings as much as damaging a new car. Spare parts for the Kelisa are abundant too. 3. The Axia won't have headaches that early in terms of maintenance. You'll have warranty to go with the car too so lesser a headache except you'll need to go back to Perodua for everything. 4. Both these small cars should be pretty decent with FC since both use 3-potter engines and have chassis' that are feather weight. 5. Having owned a Kelisa SE and test sat in an Axia, I'm not impressed with either car but the Kelisa does have a slightly better driving position and comfort. Slightly longer wheel base and wider track means Kelisa is probably better to drive around and with the 1.0 engine it's quite zippy. Personally I think it all boils down to how much you can afford. If you just wanna buy and drive, buy a new car. If it's buy, fix and drive, then Kelisa. [/QUOTE]
