I'm looking to get a new 2nd hand car. I don't have much time to look around. Can anyone give me a rough idea of what I could get for this amount. I'd want one about 5-10 years old.

I have 50,000 down payment. And can pay about 5,000 a month.

I might have 100,000 for down.

How much would a 7 year old toyota soluna be for example?

What about a 7 year old Honda civic?

Cheers

I think you;d be looking at a 92-96 Civic or maybe an 8-9 year old Soluna. Have a look at www.onetwocar.com and do a search. Or have a look through those used car magazines to get an idea of price.

Try and stick with Toyota if you can. I've a '92 Corolla for 165K if you're interested. old but still reliable motors.

Check this one out, 130,000 baht, its on the ferrang connection site, here is the link.

hi there neerenram

you've always been a supporter of practical modes of transport , your dislike of big motors , expensive imports and bullying 4x4 pickups is well known.

the vehicle for you is surely the ITAAN , that 2 stroke convertible that is so common in the countryside.

good fuel economy , natural air conditioning and good carrying capacity.

they cant cost more than a few thousand baht.

as a scotsman , you know it makes sense !!

Guys, thanks for the websites and advice.

Taxexile, my old mate, what are you talking about - the ITAAN?

Do you mean the mechanical buffalo? I thought about one of them but the wife wouldn't be too happy!

Terdsak 12, I'm interested in that one you have, can you give any discount to a fellow TV member? Would I have to see it in Bangkok?

I'll PM you the owners email, and you can work it out amoung yourselfs.

These older corollas are remarkably good, tough and long lived vehicles.

Hard to go wrong here.

We have an old Soluna in the family. Must be 7 or 8 years old. One of us got it as a yearly bonus from the company, it was valued at around 180k.

I love driving it occasionally, but it's lost most of the power it once had (109 hp) and is frustrating on expressways.
