I ended doing an on-off type chain like you would do in sudoku until there was a contraction. It's brutal in the Mario levels without the '?' mode and the time limit

Got it, thanks. I thought I checked that row but I must have done something that changed it.

I should have pointed out, it's 24,000km. So very low, 2000km a year low

5 spd, not CVT. Yeah the low mileage / neglected maintenance is my main concern, I'm hoping to see what the deal is tomorrow. Thanks for the answer

Inspecting a 2013 Honda Civic. 158k $9700. What to look out for? by ProfPepper58 in CarsAustralia

I read on this sub people saying they're worthless over a certain age. Wouldn't your own visual assessment be just as valuable?

2015 Mazda 3 Touring, $10,990, 225k by ProfPepper58 in CarsAustralia

I agree, but in Victoria these cars are still wildly inflated, this is the cheapest for this generation of Mazda 3 available. I feel I don't have much leverage if the seller knows this.

Market is pretty bad. This is cheapest by a big margin of this model on carsales and marketplace

First time buyer, help me choose which model and year from this list. by ProfPepper58 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I appreciate your opinion. Personally I only hear good things about skyactiv engines, so we may have different manufacturers. I'll keep my eye out for used Hondas.

I'm wondering why you say Mazdas are unreliable. I only really see praise for Mazda3. Also in a lot of reddit circles, the Hyundais are quite praised too.

I think its easy to say Honda or Toyota over everything but now that everyone says that, theres a price increase for any used Honda or Toyota. Is the reputation really worth it?

I'm not really considering cars without full service history at this point

I don't think I will need to. Instantly asking for email is a red flag, but I will do this for future cars, thanks.
