The 2001 Proton Wira continues to appeal because it delivers practical transportation at a relatively low purchase cost. Based on feedback from Sri Lankan owners, the Mitsubishi-derived mechanical components make servicing easier than many people expect, while experienced workshops are generally familiar with the vehicle.
The 2016 Nissan Dayz remains a sensible option for buyers who mainly drive within towns and cities. It focuses on practicality rather than excitement, offering an easy ownership experience with reasonable maintenance costs.
