The Chevrolet Aveo is one of the most affordable cars on the market and even more on the second market. But what should a potential buyer look out for when he opts for this car instead of the tried and tested Japanese models? Drivers who own this car for a couple of years are generally pleased with their purchase. However there are a few issues that come up regularly and in general the Aveo seems to hold it together until it reaches 80,000 km.
The first issue is the camshaft which needs to be replaced at 80,000 km although Chevrolet recommends that no replacing will be needed until hundred thousand kilometres. The other issue that comes on as a suspension and the wheels. It said that the car seems to steal off a little bit and will need some correcting via steering. The transmission also gives a few hassles with the gearshift beginning to feel a little bit stiff as the gearbox mounting becomes broken.
As a bringing car the Aveo costs about R120,000 and used it in expect to pay a R85,000. You have to think long and hard if you want to buy this model on the used cars for sale market.
