Just a short note on your Ah challenges. The Amp-hour rating is just one of the battery parameters that you've got to look for, there's internal resistance as well, which is as important. In general, you should be fine, as long as the battery fits its housing. I'd recommend against fitting a larger battery, even though "shop assistants" will tell you it will fit... There's the factor of securely fitting the battery in its housing, which is designed to a particular size. Your alternator is also rated to charge a battery of certain power rating and parameters, there is some risk to overloading your alternator electronics when you fit a larger battery, although the risk with 5Ah is relatively low. Good luck! Just my $0.00002

Hi As a career beginner I recommend to go for small size SUV or what we call crossover with low budgets that have a good resell value when you make your next step to upgrade so check out: Mitsubishi ASX, Hyundai Tucson, Kia sportage, Renault Duster, Ford Ecosport, Kia Soul, Nissan Juke, Mazda CX3, Daihatsu Terios, Peugeot 2008,Suzuki Vetara 2door & Gemini I didn't include expensive brand and recommend you to avoid some words like "DSG,DCT or any thing related to dual clutch transmissions and Turbo for any engine and avoid all Chinese brands) and please note that excluding these words would mean less fun and less price but much more reliability and better resell value and more customers for second hand car specially with low mileage and lady driven and for sure lower service expenses the above range would offer 4 cylinder engines 1.5:2.0 liter which would give a reasonable fuel economy and smooth driving with air condition on just try to have it first grade (fully loaded) to treat your self and to have the advantage during selling and get the automatic transmission and stick with light colors (white, silver, Gold, sky blue, light grey, pistachio green, red and avoid dark colors like black and dark blue&grey) Good Luck

Hi Ethan go ahead don't worry from the extra 5 AMPs it's even better in case you upgrade to xenon lights or audio amplifier ...... just be sure of the type left/right and dimensions not higher so it would touch car body and short and burn the car and not wider or longer so it would bend wires or push fuse box and cut wires or wires insulation. Good Luck

there are cars now that are "in-between". people call the crossovers but i call them hybrids. both the DNA of a car and a large SUV, they are often based on a car chassis but are using steroids. they are generally more economical, less bulky, better handling than the larger SUVs. at the same time, they are generally more spacious, offer a higher seating position, and higher ground clearance for some bad roads. some have AWD/4x4 for some light off roads. my advise is to go for a model that had been launched recently as they usually have more techs included and have higher safety standards. newer models are like the Nissan x-trail, Lexus NX, Merc GLA. or go for a year old car with low mileage, ideally with warranty and service contract still valid. you can enjoy it with about 20% less compared to the brand new price... and no I'm not a car dealer. and dun be lazy, go for a test drive so you can see what car you really like. Japanese cars are generally (generally still means u can run out of luck) are more dependable, Germans have very nice classy interiors and American cars offer a lot for the money (car size and engine size). personally i don't even consider korean cars. that is just my PERSONAL choice because to me, my impression is they look good on paper, nice design and cheap (cutting corners somewhere). they do get better by the years. personally i drive a 2015 Subaru WRX and a 2006 honda MRV that still runs like a dream with it s smooth 5 speed auto gearbox (old but still good). The MRV is a real gem without any problems although almost 10 years old. Of cos there is wear and tear (nothing before it's time) but i change everything outside of dealership with original parts as per the manual. i know nobody asked but i would like to share my experience with you. Subarus are bulletproof cars as i had owned 3 models in the past oldest from 2007. never had any problems, rock solid. all the best! shopping for a new/used car is the most exciting thing. i am envious. oh ya, you may watch review videos on youtube too, not all of them are good reviews but it gives you an idea.

Whatever you do, do not go near Mazda or Volkwagen for their after sales and customer service is a nightmare specially Volkwagen. I have had the worst experience with them. They only know how to refuse your problems and void your warranty and violate your rights.
