I want to purchase a used car that must be:

Comfortable
Trouble free/Reliable
Chilled AC
CNG installed

Budget: Max 5 - 6 Lacs 7 Lacs

Options that i am considering are:

1. Honda Civic 1998 Honda City 2004 Manual CNG
2. Hyundai Santro Executive 2008 Toyota Vitz (Before 2004) Automatic CNG

Need your expert comments on maintenance cost of these both cars (Spare parts, Tuning etc) as i will select the one
* That do not give much problems and
* Which will be cheaper and easy to maintain

Kindly provide a rough rate list of parts and maintenance costs for both if possible that will be great.
Can one get one of these in 7 lacs in Karachi?

Note: Please do not ask me to go for Suzuki

Thanks

Yes will bring him for sure but i just wanted to take opinion of some experts here as if it is a wise decision to choose a 1998 Civic over a 2008 Santro?
Usually people say that 1998? Oh it will definitely give you a lot of trouble as its very old

Can someone shed some light over this? Preferably the ones having Dolphin Civic?

Bro let me be very clear in 5-6 lacs if u want reliability+AC+CNG-Comfort(a little bit) Suzuki Mehran is the way to go.

So either stretch ur budget or search for a good car in ur budget....Good Luck! :)

You'll have to compromise on either 2 of the things you mentioned in that budget. Trouble Free/CNG installed > Cultus. Remember that Civic '98 is a bad choice. The ones you'll get now will be re-painted, 80,000+ kms done, sooner or later they WILL give you a headache.

Either increase your budget or go for a Suzuki for the above mentioned choices...

Then better go with city 2002-03. Again vitz will have high mileage and very hard to get one in good condition

What about City 2004 Manual CNG? Many people are selling that in pretty good condition and demand is between 7 - 7.4

Yeah. Mileage should be your prime priority there. Never go with any car beyond 60k done.
Paint should be original. Minor touch ups are acceptable. Good luck.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
