buying a car.

[LEV_101]

hi guys.

im looking to buy a vitz / echo.

ive looked through trademe and a few car yards.

so there any other places to look ?

or would i just need to wait a while ?

cheers

[sprey1661]

autotrader car magazine , and more yards

[barryogen]

you could try searching for platz and yaris too if interested in that size.

and if performance is your thing, there is the odd turbo and supercharged ones too

[Nuty|Mike]

there was a silver 2 door vitz RS 1.5 manual at GVi on Gt south rd done 115km i think for 9 ish .

We nearly bought one but found a newer nissan march with less kays for a grand less .

But definatly go the vitz rs.

[GTCRSHR]

or a runx / allex / corolla

what do you think of the nissan march.

im looking for a small car with very small cc engine size.

what other options do i have ?

autotrader mmm ill check that today :)

thanks for the many replys

[LEV_101]

ooo and yea.

i know the corolla is pretty similar to the echo/vitz.

what would you guys choose between the two.

and the corolla is 1.8 is it ?

[GTCRSHR]

1.5 or 1.8

great little cars,

what do you want to use the car for ?

1.0 Vitz... fuel miser extraordinaire!

[rollaholic]

dont get a 1 litre, they are shit!

[johndoe1025]

1 litre nissan marches go surprisingly well, i drove a CVT one the other day done like 40,000 k was actually quite cool to drive (apart from the fact you know you look like a tool in one) it was the older shape and the cvt was set up real well, felt like a manual off the line. and im a major hater of CVT's hahah

[TRD_ZERO]

or a runx

+1

1.0 Vitz... fuel miser extraordinaire!

Theres a 1.0 turbo one at Carbase in Dunedin... it's ok, but struggles to go much over 110(gearing)... gets there pretty quick though.

or a runx / allex / corolla

The RunX/Allex Z or RS180 are really nice, and pretty good on gas too.

[Eddy1612]

dont get a vitz. dont get a runx. dont get a echo. dont get a Allex. and finally dont get a nissan march (what kind of name is that anyway)

GET a TOYOTA COROLLA

Get a nice 1986 Toyota Corolla Levin GT Apex.

you will live till 200 years old and have eternal happiness forever.

I promise.

Or go mental battling rust, and having a noisy rattly old car

[Bling]

Rust builds character, any car without it at some stage is missing out

[rollaholic]

i'd swap my left nut for a car that didnt rust

nissan march goes well for a 1.0 auto tho for the missus have done pretty good milage on open road but city driving with the auto can be not so good. looks wise spend a bit more and get the Vitz Rs .
For price reference we payed 9 ish for a 2001 March with 19000kms and its just like brand new.
