[aidan]

is there a local citroen dealer? Saw a PCZ Citroen C5 on the road today. it looked sexy!

[acesinghit]

Southern Sales was the last known importer of Citroen vehicles. Sadly, like Peugeot and Renault the French does not seem to enjoy any form of success locally.

looking for something reliable around 200k for my gf
looking at elantra, cerato, lancer.

i know all the dealerships suck but which dealerships u all would rate as the least shitty?

Can't speak for the dealerships, but from those three cars I'd list the lancer as 10th.
Personally I'd chose a cerato over the elantra.

What's wrong with the lancer?

Really liking the GT.

[MadCrix]

the problem with the lancer when I was looking to buy new was

1: price for options on car was high with few options compared
2: truck was high and narrow so you had to lift goods high to load and could not load wide items.
3: rear drums

ended up with elantra over cerrato. I really can't complain one bit with neal and massy service.

Jetta cheaper, faster, sounds better than whiny cvt, has more options.

The Rio, in my opinion is the BEST car in it's class/price range.
Comes with bluetooth, USB/iPod, Smart Key w/ factory immobilizer, push button start, electronically assisted power steering, ABS, awesome gas mileage, great storage in both hatch/sedan.

Cost is about $162,000 when I checked it out.

Drives really great. Warranty is 5yrs/100,000km.

[MadCrix]

they coulda at least clean the flipping mats jah!!

yup..meem care wah nobody say....Kia's line is a strong line...(well except for the Koup...but that was 3 yrs ago i drove that version..dunno if the build has changed since) esp the mid and full SUV's..the Sorento is really a good option to its Euro Counterparts...

buh dey really cuda clean the mats eh...lol

[DJ Q]

That was the plastic on the mat, not the mat itself.

The impression I get from this forum is the jetta is unreliable due to the transmission. I don't like car trouble like that even if it will be changed under warranty.

Re-read the posts then. The mk6 jettas here haven't had transmission issues.

[S_2NR]

ok will do. its the pros and cons thread for the new jetta.
i saw a a few posts about transmission issues and i personally know someone who had transmission issues with a touareg, so i was thinking its vw unreliability.

I hear yuh eh. That thread is supposed to be open and it is but alot of our posts are talking about issues in other countries and well so far noone can really complain here.

Comparing a Touareg to a base car like a Jetta or Golf will not tell you a story about any manufacturer as they use different transmissions. Same would happen if you looked at Hyundai large SUV trannies vs their smaller vehicles. You have to look at the individual vehicle over a period and zone in on trims etc to get a proper idea. One off anecdotal stories will basically make you never buy any vehicle ever. Just in this forum there is a Cruze thread for complaints but that may not hold for all of them in general. I'd say don't just listen to one or two tuners who heard this or that. Go ask several owners.

[acesinghit]

The Rio and Accent are nice but those those who are in the market for a subcompact car believe me when I say the Fiesta and Sonic are excellent alternative choices. In fact, the City is a good buy as well. The Honda sports a 1.5 with a 5-speed auto and the Sonic gives you a 1.6 with 6-speed auto for less than a Rio. IMO, the Fiesta and Sonic are stronger cars.

as yuh mention Ford....test drove the Focus recently....

[dogichi]

That Chevy sonic interior giving me a migraine. The exterior is a bit flat, I would say no comparison to the the rio in looks and features. The fiesta is a different story though..I would give that car a 2nd look.

[Habit7]

Ford needs to bring the hatchback in that Fiesta, the sedan looks mehhh!

So guessing nobody knows anything about jags across here ?

Rare to find a jag owner on these forums. Jaguar though a beauty and the beast, has suffered against the big 3 Germans at least in local numbers . So you're more likely to find owners of the big 3.

[drchaos]

Jags? you sure you want to buy a car from an indian company?
