I'm sincerely looking to buy a car. The interior shouldn't be too basic, and I'd like it to be well-equipped. The mileage should be below 20,000 km.

I recently got an 08 Mazda 2 hatchback, 1.3L automatic. It has been driven 130,000 km over 15 years. I've been driving it for about 10 days, mostly commuting in the city with a round trip of 40 km a day, but the fuel consumption is ridiculously high... After the fuel warning light first came on, I added fuel worth 200 yuan, which was 25.6 liters, and drove a total of 247 km. The average fuel consumption was 10.35 liters/km, costing 0.8 yuan/km. After the fuel warning light, the engine light turned yellow as well, what's going on??? I didn't think too much and just drove to the gas station, asked the staff to fill it up, but it could only take 34 liters before the pump stopped. The staff said it was full. Isn't the Mazda 2's fuel tank capacity supposed to be 43 liters? Why is it full so much earlier, is there something wrong? Looking for help, how should I deal with this? Has anyone experienced the same situation?

Looking to buy an Acura, good condition, black interior, real mileage around 100,000 km.

When will this car drop below 100k? I was considering this one and the 5 Series, but ended up with the 5. However, the design of this car is just too stunning. If it goes below 100k, I wouldn't even care about after-sales service, I'd buy one just for the looks.

There are quite a few low-mileage BRZs on the market now. Is it because people's expectations were too high and they felt a big difference after getting the car, or does the car have actual issues? Also, why is the manual transmission valued so high, yet the automatic transmission still sells more? It seems like there are more automatic models in the second-hand market as well.

2017 model 1.5T Smart Enjoy, blue color, mileage 45,000 km, sincerely for sale.

I have a 2018 Outlander 2.4 AWD. Last month, the right front wheel got hit, and I had to replace the shock absorber, half shaft, and steering rack. 😒😒😒 Now, when I'm driving at around 110 km/h, the steering wheel vibrates in my hands. It's not exactly a shake, but more of a tingling feeling. The car doesn't drift or vibrate, just the steering wheel. If I grip the wheel tightly, it feels a bit better. There's no issue when driving below 100 km/h. I've done wheel alignment, and the data is spot on. I've also done wheel balancing and swapped the front and rear tires. I've even replaced the front bearings, but there's no change. The repair shop said the next step would be to start replacing parts one by one, but that would be too costly. Does anyone know what the problem might be? I'd be willing to offer a small reward for a solution. 😏😏😏

I'm sincerely looking to buy a used Taycan, 2021 model with less than 40,000 km. Preferably in white. Both Shanghai plates and non-local plates are fine. Ideally, the interior should have red and black, with Bose loudspeakers, electric sound system, and display screens. Budget is 500,000 RMB.

I had the chance to try out the new Toyota Corolla, the 1.2T Elite version. Honestly, there aren’t many changes in the design compared to the previous generation, but I thought I’d share my thoughts anyway. The engine performance isn’t particularly strong — 116 horsepower on a car this size is just acceptable. But when you push it and let the RPMs climb, it actually feels better than expected. It’s not slow, and it feels lighter than I thought it would. The CVT gearbox is smooth and decent overall, although at low speeds there are some light vibrations and a bit of drag when you lift off the throttle. When you demand sudden acceleration, it takes a little time to reach the higher revs, but it’s not annoying. The suspension handles big bumps well, but you can feel smaller imperfections in the road, especially at lower speeds. On curves and sharp turns, the car holds itself pretty well and stays composed — that was a nice surprise. The steering is great. It’s light at low speeds and firms up nicely as you go faster. The response is smooth and precise, and the brakes are easy to get used to and feel very natural — no issues there. Noise insulation is average. Wind noise is handled well, and the engine isn’t too loud, even at high RPMs — that’s actually better than the hybrid version. But road noise does come through at higher speeds, and ambient noise isolation is just okay. Inside, the design hasn’t changed much — it still feels quite basic. The materials aren’t great; most of the interior is hard plastic. The screen and instrument panel haven’t been upgraded like in the 1.5 or hybrid versions. The infotainment system is slow and outdated — not what you'd expect in a 2024 model. Front seating is fine — you can adjust the driver’s seat to a comfortable low position and the steering wheel aligns well with it. The back seats, however, aren’t great. The space is average, the seatback is a bit upright, and the cushion isn’t very long. The trunk, on the other hand, is decent and handles luggage well. In terms of safety features, you do get useful tools like radar and driving assist, but there’s no rear parking sensor — which is strange. Overall, the car isn’t lacking in features, but the priorities feel a bit off. In the end, this car doesn’t really surprise you — and that might actually be a good thing for people who prefer something reliable and familiar. It’s not futuristic, but if you’re after dependability and ease of use, it could still be a smart choice — especially with how crowded the market is becoming with hybrids and EVs. Ultimately, it depends on your needs and your budget at the time of buying.

Ride Comfort: The car feels very stable at high speeds, which gives you a real sense of safety — especially thanks to the solid chassis. However, the seats are a bit firm, and on long trips, they can start to get uncomfortable. Fuel Range: On a full tank, I’ve managed around 650 km on the highway. In summer, or when the car is fully loaded with the A/C running, that drops to about 500 km. In the city, I usually get around 400 km per tank. With current fuel prices (I always fill up with 95), it basically costs me around AED 1 per kilometer. Performance: This is the part I really want to talk about — and complain a bit. With ECO mode turned off, the initial power off the line is decent, but that’s about it. Once you get moving, the car starts to feel like it’s struggling — like a small engine pulling a heavy body. If you don’t mind the loud engine noise, you might get a bit of excitement, but realistically, you’re running close to 4000 RPM for that. Overtaking at 120 km/h is tough; the acceleration just doesn’t keep up, and it feels risky. That said, I have to give credit to the car’s off-road capabilities — it handles rough or muddy roads surprisingly well and won’t leave you stuck.

Honestly, I really liked the car’s exterior and interior design. We have to admit that German engineering is truly top-notch—especially when it comes from established brands like Mercedes. Positives: On the highway, the car is incredibly stable. Sometimes I find myself going 140 km/h without even realizing it—it's a huge difference from my old car (which was an Accord). This time I ordered it with the "Burmester" sound system, and the audio clarity—especially for vocals—is amazing. The exterior design grabs attention—it has presence. And the interior ambient lighting at night creates an incredible vibe. The infotainment system is very fast; navigation through menus is smooth and seamless. Fuel consumption is low—when driving in ECO mode, it goes below 7 liters per 100 km, which is excellent for a car of this class. Negatives: The driver’s seat is a bit tight. At low speeds, there's some hesitation or jerkiness in the gearbox. It’s not annoying, but you do notice it. The standard features are very weak—Mercedes really makes you pay extra for everything: seat heating? Extra. Keyless entry? Extra. In-car fragrance? Also extra! And the strangest part is that a car at this price point doesn’t even come with a power tailgate! Plus, if you don’t choose the optional extras, they tell you “no ready cars, you’ll have to wait”—especially toward the end of the year.
