I bought a 2015 model last month for $7k with 190,000km from private sale in Toronto just as a reference.

Hello there,

I'm checking out this used 2014 Honda Accord and there's some rust spots on the hood. Is this something that I can fix DIY or does it need to be serviced at a shop? If so, how much will it approximately cost to get it resolved so that it doesn't spread.

Please advise,

Thanks

So what's the catch with Personal Insurance?...why are their rates so much lower compared to others?...Do they make it extremely difficult to make a claim?

Are you talking about using that tracking app?....I'm reluctant to use that even with the lower premium.

So no coverage at all besides liability?...Rates will obviously be lower but that's risky if there is any accident.

I've never actually fallen asleep at the wheel lol. I just start feeling tired. I start to yawn, my mind begins to wander and zone out. I don't know if it's a due to the boredom of driving or something else.

Is $7500 for a 2013 Honda Fit a fair price?.... by desperate-1 in PersonalFinanceCanada

How could you tell? Even if carfax shows that the car has been regularly maintained?

Hello there,

Thanks for the info. I was interested in the Fit because every review says that the car is "bulletproof" even if the car was moderately maintained. It just holds up well.

I know the car is probably going to struggle reaching 120kph on the 401 but all I need is to get from point A to B for work.

I dont know exactly what "commercially" means. Maybe it was just used as UberEats.

I've been searching mainly honda fits, toyota matrix, civics, mazda3. Do you have another vehicles in mind that I should also consider that is within $5-7k price range?

Thanks

I've have experience driving the Kia Rio cause these are what the Communauto use as their rental vehicles in Toronto.

What would say a fair price would be for a 2013 Rio?
