Liana is a hatch/estate version?

 

So the other two Cerato and Optra you are talking about sedan or hatch/estate version?

 

 

Liana...so far the 1.3M I had seen is the hatch version loh...only the 1.6A is the sedan type....so hatch to me is fine..

 

As for Cerato..and Optra..either hatch back/Estate or Sedan is ok....

since liana hatch is in your list, why not consider the sirion too?

 

sirion..find that the space is the least among the hatch type...

 

estate and liana are better in this aspect right ?..correct me if I am wrong..

depends on ur preference bro.if u just wanna drive frm pt A to pt B ,a liana would be enuff for u..spacious wise for me i see is quite alritez..

For comparison between cerato and optra,i would judge on the maintenance parts.optra is considered a continental car(although is not really costly),but however the parts may be of higher price than cerato or other jap/korean cars..

consider 2-3 yr old renaults

 

superb handling and safety over any of the choices here, for around the same range if u look properly

 

ones in the link below

http://www.renaultcarclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=48759

 

 

Thanks for the link...

 

Slightly off budget loh..and yearly dep around 3.5k....at that range..probably I would be open to more models....

 

Its a good car with all the renowed safety certification...its really comfy too as I had seated in one before...but i was told its drinks..as usual for most conti..
