So I have a 2015 Mazda 3 and I have been taking my car to the dealership for maintenance every 5k, the price hasn't been too bad up until now.

I'm currently at the 30,000 mark and I had gotten a quote for $499.00 and it seems a little much, here's what they want to do

>Oil & Filter change
>Inspect the Brakes
>Check all the hoses, belts
>Add Washer, Replacement of Engine Air Filter & Cabin Filter
>Perform a Charging System Check
>Battery Service Check, Alignment Check
>Drain & Fill for the Coolant
>Transmission & * Differential, (* If Applicable) >Inspect all Interior & Exterior Light Plus a Multi-point inspection
>wash the outside of your Car

What do /o/

Have you ever lift-off oversteered your car /o/ ?

Didn't even know this was a thing until I accidentally did it taking a corner a little to hard in my little fwd car.

Scary as hell when you don't expect it, but fun nonetheless.

If you're driving your car hard enough to experience lift off oversteer and didn't know about it, even if not by name, then you're driving dangerously.

that's not bad mileage for a landcruiser mechanically

rust is always bad but it depends where it is, if it's structural, how badly it's eaten the metal, etc

Guy has a '93 Renault Twingo for sale for around 600 eurobucks and says it's negociable. Says the Technical Inspection is avaible until February 2017.

Is there a catch I should be aware of?

Check it for rust on frame and panels. Apart from that, pretty much everything else is easily fixable.
Might be worth it, if just to sell a '93 to an American in two years.

This.

The Twingo in the photo looks like it really had a rough life. Around here you usually get those for free or they get flatout scrapped.

Whenever you have the chance, best bet would be to get one in Germany. The prices for them around here are ridiculous.

Nigga what?
The only difference in sound is the tranny whine in reverse.

Mazda 6.jpg

I /o/, please help me out with this dilemma.
I´ve been thinking for a while about changing my:
- Mazda 2, year 2011, Manual transmition, 40.000km.
For a
- Mazda 6, around year 2005, Automatic transmition, 100.000 to 150.000km (pic related).

Why?
- Because i have issues on my left knee so an Automatic would be a big relief.
- I´d like to (and need to) get a cash income with this, as the Mazda 6 would be around 2.000USD cheaper.
- For some reason I just want to change my car, i think i got bored and i don´t like it anymore.

I´m not a car guy, don´t really know much about them and my biggest concern is to get a car as reliable as my current one, because my mazda 2 has never had any issues and i don´t want to start having issues and spending time and money repairing the next car i get.

Do you think is risky? What should i look out for?
Or is it just a bad idea?
Any comments/ideas, are welcomed.
Thanks.

how much can you afford?

post you local craigslist or kijiji as the case may be.
>>
>>16009872
I hope to sell the Mazda 2 around 8000USD, so maximum to spend should be 6.000, if not it doesn´t make sense the change for now.
Craiglist and kijiji are useless in my country :(

I'm not sure I'd go that far. But I just want to make sure I'm not getting ripped off.

I thought it was a few bad apples, but the prices are consistent over a wide range.

I found one that only has 100,000 miles and is in mint condition, but they want $4500 for it! FUCK!
>>
They only cost what people are willing to pay for them. There is no other metric by which their value can be measured. KBB doesn't get to decide how much a car is worth.
