Can recommend me a SUV?
-
Sadly I have to trade my present car in for a SUV as my wife is pregnant.
I have decided against saloons.
So what are the choice available to me below $150k?
I would prefer something a bit zippy though I know it is hard to come by in SUV. I am thinking of a Santa Fe. Harrier is a tad bit common. I don't really care about brand. I rather a good built car than a branded one that costs much more. I am currently driving a Nissan.
Cheers guys! -
Bro, with that kinda car you are driving now, i would recommand the Volvo XC90 ... the basic one will do ... all you need is there 7 sitter and all
Just my 2 bhat worth
-
Airtrek Turbo R. should be under 120k, and still enuf for some thrills once in awhile.

Maybe HEng say is correct, if your baby starts to cry , you can gun the accel to reach home faster or get to the supermarket to buy diapers and milk powder faster
Is all very dependable on individual, but for safety and family sake, i would prefer the Volvo

I am currently driving a 350Z. A pure 2 seater. WOuldn't be able to fit a baby in there unless I tie the baby seat on the roof
.
Airtrek 4D Turbo R sounds like a good choice. I think i will give mitshibishi a call. Does any other garage bring it in as a PI and can `sup' it up for me?
I love the styling of the XC90 but it is above my budget and the engine feels a bit rough. Furthermore, its handling is not to my liking. Initially I thought I would look past these points and get a 2nd hand one. But now I can't cos I want to keep my current number plate. If I am not wrong I can transfer number plates between 2 registerred cars, right? -
well we got the Ralliart Edition ATR from C&C, so u don't really have to look for PIs. comes with full bodykit, spoiler, 17inch rims n other Ralliart trim, plus a black leather upholstery with red piping for the interior.Originally posted by Platos:I am currently driving a 350Z.

Mitsubishi Outlander or Mitsubishi Pajero
Both are SUV but Pajero is smaller and have a 3.5 V6 engine.
Outlander's boot space is enormous and is perfect for u, but have 2.4 liter engine instead, both are under 120k if i guess correctly -
What ever you do , don't get the Outlander or Freelander from Mitsu ... the one looks like the ATR ... it sux totally!Originally posted by Platos:I am currently driving a 350Z. A pure 2 seater. WOuldn't be able to fit a baby in there unless I tie the baby seat on the roof.

Actually the XC90 T5 is not bad at all though, but if you really want the ATR, you can try asking around there are some good lobangs here and there. -
freelander is land rover leh bro, u blur liao? but yeah i agree. avoid the outlander. it's quite a different animal from the ATR.Originally posted by johncooper:What ever you do , don't get the Outlander or Freelander from Mitsu ... the one looks like the ATR ... it sux totally!

i agree about the outlander. but based on his previous car, i think he would like something with a bit more ommph.Originally posted by johncooper:paiseh paiseh ... got mixed up, anyways the Outlander is a totally cannot make it one lor ... anyways give some Estates a consideration ... i personally thing the Primera wagon is not bad, all high tech and stuffs, not sure about the F/C though -
