So basically I won't qualify for a car loan until my residency comes through in late 2011...but I'm getting sick/bored of driving a Barina SRi at my age, as nice as it is!
Was thinking of getting a TS SRi Turbo, but for my budget ($12,000 - $13,000) I'd be looking at a '03 or '04 with probably over 100,000kms...Was wondering what sort of problems to look out for when buying? I don't have a clue about Turbo cars - Do they start getting major problems once they get to this kind of age? The ones on Carsales at the mo look pretty tidy :smile5:
The alternative is to just hang on and get a VXR once I've sorted out my PR.
Basically any opinions on the SRi Turbo are welcome.
