Buying A Used Hybrid Car


dilshandcs

Question

I am planning to buy an used hybrid car around 41laks or below. I have prius 2010 and insight 2011 in my mind. But some people said that i have to face lot of repairs if i buy a prius. So they said to me go for an insight 2011. Please help me to select the right car which will have less maintenance and maintenance cost. What are the things to check when i buy that car?

THANK YOU

note that you can't abuse a hybrid like a Corolla 110 etc. 

hmmm 78,000 seems a low milage for a priass to be falling apart. Having had my ass hauled in taxis(prius) regularly that have done more kms  than that haven't looked that messed up. 

RE: the carina , those 90s to  2000's cars are just rock solid. A long time ago my dad had a 1986 Carina that went on and on and on for ages without giving significant trouble. sadly that longevity is no longer there in most new cars 

 

@matroska honestly i wont bark on so much but this guy takes care of his car also n lives just 5km from work but these issues are there. Odd squeaks n rattles and at time when it hits a pothole the whole dash vibrates or least sounds like it. Loss of pulling power... :mellow:

damn that's bad...  maybe 78k isn't the original mileage? deterioration at 78 K is just plain dissapointing.

Thought did cross my mind but then again look how many threads been open for hybrid related cars?? you need to take care of these cars as babies. I have a Trad Sunny near one of my relations place i think manufacturing was around 1980s, now that after 30+ years everything works, perfection!!! mind you thats NOT a restoration, its still with the 1st owner^_^
