If you're buying an older car, avoid European brands. Rather buy Japanese or Korean.

With an older car you have no warranty so there is no need to buy spares from the agents. The non agency spares shops stock a wide range of non-genuine parts for Japanese and Korean cars at good prices.

With European cars the demand is low so only the agents keep spares (at 3 times the price).

I have a Renault Clio and this has been my experience.

Hi there,,

I don't own a C3, so am not sure about the performance of the car. As u have mentioned that 'maintenance cost of this car is very high & the spare parts availability is also less', well these are more than ENOUGH reasons for me to not to buy this car that too old model (2nd hand I assume).

This is purely my humble opinion!!

Good Luck 2 U!!
