Hey peeps, purchased a KR Verada a couple of days ago, feel in love with it straight away, dang these are nice cars, and I am comparing it to my TE Advance, its so smooth and silky, all the extra features are totally cool, am thoroughly enjoying the electric windows and that sweet sounding V6 motor, it is a very different car to my TE, it actually feels bigger then the TE not sure if it is though, its probably longer.
Anyways today I got four new tyres for it and new CVs and its driving very nicely indeed, oh picked up a quiet sports muffler for it too, nothing loud just a nice note.

Will post up some piccies in the next few days.

Hey anyone know what these cars are worth? dollar terms?

Its for the wifey to go grocery shopping when I am at work.
I am selling my other small four cyl car and hopefully keeping the verada, if I cant sell the daewoo then I might have to sell the verada, but really dont want to but cant keep 3 cars:doubt:
So someone buy my daewoo lol

It is very light metallic blue, with all blue interior, really thick fabric on the seats and no rips in them after all these years, amazing, the thing does'nt even have rattles or squeeks, am very impressed with mitsu build quality on these cars. And its just so dang solid.

hey, well done,

too true that they are a very nice ride,
help'd me Girl (Kat) get a KR Xi Rada a few mth's back and i'm very impress'd with it (i'm also a 3rd gen driver (TE Man Exec))

they just seem to be smoother on the road then the 3'rds, but then again, i ain't been in a 3'rd rada, who knows they may seem smoother to.

i have to agree about the sound of the V6 in them too. i don't know what it is but they have a very sweet note. we had a twin tip cannon put on (wanted a bit more volume outta it) and hell it sounds so nice, very low and deep.

good luck with the sale of the D'woo as it'd be a shame for you to have to sell the rada.

Never been in a 2nd gen Rada, but i can tell you I found the TR alot more comfortable and enjoyable to drive compared to my 3rd Gen Rada. Just seemed to feel like it was hugging the road more than my 3rd gen.

Woohoo, sold my daewoo, getting to keep the rada after all.
I mentioned it before but I actually enjoy driving the 2nd gen rada more then my TE.

Go figure.

But the TE pulls more attention.lol

Yeah man, i agree, Verada's are awesome cars! :bowrofl:

I've fully fixed up my KS and it's fantastic to drive. Ecanomical for a 6 cyl, plenty of response when the foot hits the floor, plus i just hooked up an expencive clarion head unit to the stock speakers and boom, really good audio! Now all i need is an amp, sub and exhaust then i'll be laughing lol

I have a KS verada and a TF magna.. both same KM about 210,000.. out of both, the verada kicks the magna in ride, smoothness (except auto tranny) and all the features.. only thing is my verada isnt as reliable as the magna.. burst a heater hose yesterday. Always have had cooling system probs with the 2nd gens i've owned.
