I&#39;m required to travel a lot due to my job nature. I&#39;m working in construction and need durable car to pass through unpaved road. Normally i will take my family together with me. I always preferred 2nd car over new car due to depreciation value which i can get nice car with cheaper price.<br />Below is the list of vehicle that i want to buy.<br /><br />1 - Proton Exora Premium 1.6 Auto 2019 ; Mileage 40000kM ; Price RM 50k w/o insurance.<br /><!--SPOILER BEGIN--><div class="spoilertop" onClick="openClose('5e8073cef845d5096fe322d35ad7bc97')" style="font-weight: bold"><u>&raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &laquo;</u></div><div class="spoilermain" id="5e8073cef845d5096fe322d35ad7bc97" style="display:none"><!--SPOILER END-->* Compare to Non-Premium, it has as per below features (Copy paste from <a href='https://&lt;link removed&gt;/2019/05/31/gallery-2019-proton-exora-rc-executive-rm59800/)' target='_blank'>https://&lt;link removed&gt;/2019/05/31/gallery-2019...utive-rm59800/)</a><br /><br />ESC<br />LED daytime running lights<br />Rear fog lamp<br />Electric fold wing mirrors<br />Side skirts<br />Rear spoiler<br />Black roof/rear garnish<br />Leather steering<br />Steering buttons<br />Cruise control<br />Driver’s vanity mirror (front passenger only)<br />Fold-down armrests for the front chairs<!--SPOILER DIV--></div><!--SPOILER DIV--><br /><br />2 - Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2D Diesel Premium 2015/2017 ; Mileage 40000kM ; Price RM 73k w/o insurance.

I need help to make a choice to buy a car. Those cars are Nissan Almera 1.5 E(new) 2015 and Toyota Altis 1.6 A(used) 2007. <br /><br />I have calculated for both cars total price. For Almera, total price is RM81.3k and the monthly installment is RM752(9years).For Altis, total price is RM38k and the monthly installment is RM633(5years).<br /><br />My opinion right now is Altis because the monthly installment is cheaper (RM119 different) and the loan period is shorter. The main reason I decided to buy a car is for transportation and family accommodation. hafizutem The Fast &amp; The Furious Sun, 18 Oct 2015 20:44:16 +0800
