Kurty Supercharged February 2, 2012 Share February 2, 2012 Hi, Seeking some advises for my current situation. Current ride, proton savvy manual opc, is turning 6yrs this march. Mileage only 70k FC, 14km/L on good days but getting bad lately.. probably become heavy footer again Current loan left below 7k but at 3%. Saw on sgcarmart, selling from 18.5k to 24.5k for auto or manual. Understand that manual will fetch a lower price, probably looking at 16-17. Reason for sale: wanted an auto instead.. tired of changing gear.. and probably sick of the car too despite it really serve me very well. Top speed can hit around 160km. Thus i ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic February 2, 2012 Share February 2, 2012 (edited) Unless it's giving problems, stick to it. After all, it's a manual - should have much lesser problems than AMT. Most of above new options CMI compared to your current ride. I just don't understand why and how driving a manual is so difficult in sunny Singapore. It's in fact easier than auto 'cos there is no need to step on the brake firm at every traffic lights and stops. You will miss the handling and safety for a small savvy. Years back, one savvy turned turtle and crash landed into a private property, driver walk out safely. Edited February 2, 2012 by Kangadrool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torquey Neutral Newbie February 2, 2012 Share February 2, 2012 my car will be 5 years old this year and like you I'm also thinking of changing car. I reckon the resale value might be better now so its the right time to sell. probably buy a new kia since the designs have improved. but first i need to find a buyer for my high mileage car at the right price.
