balo Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 I decided to go for an upgraded version of Nissan March, not the Almeira. But I will check if I can get more freebies for the price.

alfieconn Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Nothing Beats a New Ford Car Auto Gearbox. Or their waterproof trucks . Get a Swift,or a Honda City.

alfieconn Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You're forgetting one thing....how long do you want to wait until delivery? You certainly won't be getting any car within 24 hours....perhaps except for a fiesta. I sat in a fiesta and found it smaller inside than my swift. I couldn't even put my feet behind the driver seat with it fully back. There have been a few complaints about the auto box too, and not sure if that has been fully sorted out yet. Most of the ecocars seem to be taking a few months for delivery, but you might be able to get the mirage/attrage quicker. If you are on a budget, I'd suggest the mitsu as they seem to throw in a few extras and insurance too. I preferred the design and interior of the swift, but I had to wait many months for it, and no free insurance. Anyone !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankphuket Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Do speak to Ford dealers, as the Fiesta is due to be out in New form in all engine types, not all Ecoboost, soon they might have some very good offer out. I have seen a month or two ago discounts from 50-100,000 Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMHO Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Nothing Beats a New Ford Car Auto Gearbox. Or their waterproof trucks . Get a Swift,or a Honda City. Could you elaborate A of P or anyone as it seems all is not well with mine ! There have been two recurring issues I've hard about with the FIesta's powrshift: 1) Clunky/erratic gear changes at low speed - Ford created a new firmware about 18 months ago to address this, but some owners were still complaining even after the update. 2) The gearbox fails completely, or fails only to go into forward gears (still goes into reverse). I have only heard of a few instances of this, and in all cases it was a new gearbox under warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ace of Pop Posted July 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2014 Thank You IMHO. Some people just wont accept facts. Honda has a very bad interior noise problem caused by accountants fitting rubbish tires, and poor drive shaft assembly, whoever passes the Cars off is a Stupid as Fords Box Tester. Dam stupid really, a Toyota is near perfect noise wise but as exiting as an Ex Wife.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that IMHO,my daughters car sometimes make a grinding noise at low speed in the low gears, nothing too serious at the moment ! took it back a month after getting it and they said "this was normal" have to go back next week to return the red plates so I will bring the noise to there attention again and this time I will have the wife with me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my XT1032 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Maybe by "in 25 years" he means "in the 25 years I've been alive", not "in the 25 years I've been driving" He has a point though - the Almera feels like you're driving a video game at times - i.e. no feedback, no sensations just a mushy, soft, bouncy everything - not even the engine sounds match the experience. I think I'd prefer a harsh riding pickup just for some decent steering feel, and diesel clatter that at least correlates to what your feet are doing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being towed as I was recovering it for the garage I worked at. The Almera is the second worst with a 2008 2litre Camry close behind; gutless with terrible brakes (it was only 6 months old).

keemapoot Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 So were all different, the Camry isnt a bad car, many folk repeat buy.Nice Cruzer on long runs. In the real world (outside Thailand) people who can afford to drive a nice Toyota buy a Lexus. Great car. The Camry is certainly solid for a compact car. Unfortunately, in Thailand, the Camry, (& Accord, Teana) is priced like and considered like a premium luxury saloon. Camry is solid but terminally boring. Accord is solid, more fun to drive but noisy. Teana is solid, quieter than the others but ugly (though latest model is not bad). And...all of this is off-topic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
