trade-in in dealership is rip off and you will find over average price for buying used car in most dealerships when you buy a used car, make sure its local bc car (not cars from usa or cars from other province) with its accident history and make sure it has clean title there is a reason why we call dealership stealership |
Nice finds Thumper! This Mazda 3 looks very tempting and the details looks even more tempting :) Thanks the nice share. That Nissan seems too big and looks like to have quite a bigger engine which means big engine big on maintenance. I am after a car Which is Low on Maintenance or easy to Mantain like six months check up with Mechnics Should be reliable easy to replace parts no major issues with transmission , engine etc. and in Budget. Can't go on with more points due to budget constrains so need to keep that list limited. |
Do you guys know any good Place that can perform Full inspection in Richmond area that you have personal experience of using or around Richmond. |

I mean who would know the car better than the dealer? + they always want to find everything that's wrong with the car anyways right?!?! |

GT's have a wing/spoiler and I believe they come with leather seats. |

very sensible tip thumper will look for bcaa approved shops. |
i'm not saying underscore dosen't have a point. for a car this old it might not matter anymore depending on how many owners it's seen, etc.. check how much the dealer charges first and then decide if it's worth the value of the car... as for an indie shop in richmond, HBL Autosports seems to get good reviews: https://www.yelp.ca/biz/hbl-autosports-richmond |

My GF has an 07 MZ3 GT, hatch, auto (same drivetrain as MZ5). Bought at 90k from the original owner and was only dealer serviced, now at 170k. Aside from regular synthetic oil changes and cabin air filters, I've done: - 100k rf engine mount, front pads and rotors - 120k struts, plugs, thermostat - 160k battery, f/r pads and rotors As soon as the weather cooperates, I'll be replacing the front LCA's (new bushings/BJ's), front wheel bearings and flushing the tranny fluid. Overall, it's been a good car and only needed basic maintenance. Having said that, I've heard of PCV failures causing oil consumption/seized engines and failed TCM (tranny control module) which is an easy fix but expensive part. |
Have you bought yet ... this was posted in the CL thread by someone and it might fit your bill, already has snow tires on. Pretty low kms for a 99. You and your whole family can go camping and sleep in that thing, so damn cavernous. 1999 Honda Odyssey - $3488, 179K kms https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/bnc/cto/5956368916.html https://images.craigslist.org/01313_...3S_600x450.jpg |
