Oh dear.. 😕

Hopefully you get employed soon Barry. We all need your expertise.

These are challenging times too... 😔

Yes I still like to get my hands dirty. Car shows is only part of it. We still have to repair cars to pay for all the crazy builds we do. You should drop into the shop some day and have a look. I know you like jeeps. We’re building a stupid crazy SWB wrangler rock crawler at the minute. Small block Chevy, lengthened and widened chassis, 48” tyres, air ride suspension, 3 differentials, yes 3, each front wheel has its own differential. If you’re into engineering the front suspension setup will blow your mind. Stupid crazy car. 

Name of your garage @Barry? And where in Dubai..?

Wow.. You guys saved me lot of money.. Thanks. 😃

Ok

Alright now it makes sense. Overheating causes premature failures.

Thanks Barry.

But Sri Kumar... All the cars nowadays have CVT.. I used a Honda for 100k no issues at all. Toyota/honda/Nissan all have them. Corolla (2015 onwards...)

Yaris (also same) 😢

I had a 2018 Yaris as a rental for 4-5 months great car compared to the current rental I have, a 2019 Nissan Sunny which is an absolute POS in every way possible. 

Fuel consumption, comfort level, smoothness, looks inside and out, features. Miles ahead.

I think the Yaris is a though act to follow in the mini Jap ecobox segment

Thanks for your advise

If you can't find a Yaris with Cruise control go for a Corolla or Camry for that price. As @Gaurav bhai pointed out the Nissan CVT gearbox is bound to fail and is expensive to fix.

OK bro. Will search further

Thanks for your advise Gaurav..!

Hello All,

Need your expert advise.

I just sold my Honda CRV, as my family moved out. The car was great but was expensive to maintain.

I now need a small reliable car with cruise as I travel long distances.

I am going to see a Nissan TIIDA 2012 hatch back with about 120K kms on it.

This is a cheap car, costing me around 17k,

Would like to know if TIIDA is a reliable perfomer, or does it have major issues with engine/transmission/gear box

The other option i am looking for is a Yaris. I heard good reviews about it but it cost almost twice as much for a 2016 0r 17 model (the old ones dont have cruise in them).

Kindly advise i am really confused at this stage.
