  Well i am driving a Nissian Sunny B16 Vip edition ..
  
  I have no problems with the car EXCEPT the hidden cost ...
  
  Remember if you get a car it is not only the monthly installments, it is about those 20K servicing, 40 k servicing, Tyre rotation, petrol ...
  please look into these before you purchase a car ...
  
  if there is a budget car i would advice Kia Picanto ... loads of people buying ... there is a thread about it ... go there check

  get a mazda 2 series, easy to maintain, great driving sensation and great look, get a manual one if u wan2 save on fuel $$$. Auto one tends to consume abit more and frequent servicing if u travel alot.
  
  trust me, im not a salesman, im just an ordinary folk

  Jen,
  
  if you really want to get a car with low FC i would strongly suggest a toyota with VVTi ... it really saves fuel ... get the Vios or even the Altis ...
