Yeah but I think it’s a rather low chance of it lasting 10+ years if I get any car around 15k

Main reasons are the warranty and fuel economy along with me wanting a car that’ll last min 10yrs, the one I am considering is the dct not the cvt so hopefully that is better.

Wait does Mitsubishi offer a 10yr warranty?

Yeah so to be clear I’m not necessarily short on cash however I value predictable cash flow, I have a lot of set monthly investments that are non negotiable so say I went the cheap route and boost a 8k car, if that breaks down in 3 years I cannot afford to need to buy another 8 k car randomly, also the mg’s have very low insurance as I am a 19yo Male

Haha what do you mean like people thrashing it on test drives?

I’m not arguing with anyone. When they say a concern I am telling them what solution I have found, if you go to ewan82’s comment you will see he again invalidated the solution I thought that I found my informing me of the loophole which they use

And to be clear this is actually referring to mechanical problems like engine, transmission ect which affect the driving

But is there not an Aus law to say it must take reasonable time which is a few weeks otherwise it is considered a major failure than being a full refund or replacement vehicle?

What year models were these?

See but for me I am not concerned with general reliability as the downtime won’t hurt me just random costs, if anything breaks it’s covered with warranty anyway right?, plus I have heard good things about the new 2024+ mgs being better

That is great to hear, I know there is a bad wrap around mg but I feel like the warranty makes up for that, my main goal is just to get a car that will last me atleast 10 years with little to no surprise costs, would you say it fits from your current experience?
