What car will you get as your first car? (3 Viewers)

[Phantomeureka]

Phantomeureka...you have no idea how jelly I am atm. Fark thats hot lol.
What mods did you do to it?

Engine wise fairly standard, Twin UAS 2.5" Catback Exhausts, Highflow Catalytic converters, UAS Intake Pipes, K&N Pod Filter, GFB Underdrive Pulley & a Brass Button Clutch. Has a lot of other mods too, KYB Shocks, Strut Braces front & rear, AAR Bucket Seats, ECUtalk Consult Display, Slotted Brakes etc.

A bloke I used to know at school used to have a similar one to the above. Pretty good cars considering the price imo. Getting harder to find them in good condition though.

Yeah, they're terrific cars if they're maintained. Otherwise you're in for a lot of cash if you buy a lemon, this one has had all the major servicing done including all water bypasses etc. It's never given me trouble engine wise.

More Pics with my cousins black zed, Although i don't have those sideskirts anymore.

20k for non facelift, no deal

I'm going to say no to that as well. The fuel economy is bit crap as well, 9.4L/100 combined on a 2.4L engine?

mazda 3 > that car

What a steal. Either it's wrong or got some serious issues.

Neither BMW or MB follow their own damn naming conventions anymore. C250 CGI is a 1.8L T for example whilst my C250 CDI is a 2.1L TT.

I'd pass. Bit on the pricey side for an old Accord Euro. Great car though.

I guess it's because it's a luxury edition and has low kilometres

ive owned an alfa for 2 years now

maintenance isnt actually pretty average, and if anything it might be cheaper, since the alfa specialists are really honest, not much more than any other car, not really sure about repairs, but if you have insurance it shouldnt matter

After ownership for 2 years, Ive had one problem, my airbag light was on.

I took it to Kmart tyre and auto when i had a minor service and asked them about it: "oh yeah we need to replace this replace that rewire everything" and quoted me for $500, i said no, charged me $300 for a minor service + inspection , the advertised price was $150 or something, but it includes like nothing if you read the fine print

next service took it to a specialist, max oddi, and he was like "oh it looks like someone bumped into you, and now the sensor is detecting something" , took my bumper off, fixed it for free with my service, charged me $300 for a minor service + inspection

Correct but its blatantly got 6.3 written on it. C250 is a designation, this is just lying

I like Mazda 3s because they're fun to drive but the road noise they generate is just atrocious.

 

[hungwell1337]

like literarily the costs are....

1. timing belt every 60,000kms, $800

2. brake disks, usually every 100,000kms, 1k for front and back

3. tires cost around 200 each. front rear ones last longer

4. uhh thats about it, nothing more than your average car

other service costs are pretty much the same as other cars...

I came across a bargain a few months ago myself..
