Anyone can advise???

Hi,

If nothing goes wrong, will be taking over my friend's 5 yrs old 1.3 GLi Lancer auto. His ride didn't travel much , mileage is pretty low for his 5 yrs old car. As I am a new driver, didn't feel too comfortable with a new car therefore been looking around for 2nd hand car but mostly in the markets are those 10yrs coe CARS.

No mods or any enhancements are done on his car, anyone can advise what should I do when taking over the ride in order to improve its performance/FC?

He is still using 13" original steel rims , thinking of upgrading it to 14" alloy rim. What is the correct recommendations?

Any major overhaul require for a lancer after 5 yrs old especially an auto one?

Appreciate all comments/advises...

Drive it around 1st... before you decide. I suppose the car still in stock...

 

but lancer can go with 15" rims... but dun expect fc to be good.... if you want to keep the fc low, better to remain in 13"...

 

what mods you looking for... cosmetic or improve performance?
