MAHG Delta '84 Export Trim

What can you get for 13 000$?

Well, a nice car!

Not a fast one… but, a comfortable one, roomy and reliable.

You have here a nicely appointed interior with a radio, a reliable 1.2L unit with the latest fuel injection technologies, all the bonuses from the Export trim and a 3 automatic gearbox!

:jp: Hōgai Sendai LB

The LB means that it is a low-mid spec model. Basically a base model with a few extra creature comforts and features, but not quite reaching the Mid spec model.

Features include:

  • 1.6L (1627cc) I4 producing 71hp. Base engine
  • 4 speed all-syncro gearbox, top speed 170km/h. (rwd)
  • 12" steel wheels with front disc brakes.
  • Standard interior with optional cassette player included.
  • Hydraulic power-steering.
  • Foglights and rear wiper.

This particular example was used as a dealership review unit for around 4 years. That’s why it has a few strange additions to it, such as the radio and rear wiper.

I’m not sure you can just say the car is cheaper if it’s over the budget

the thing is i was 100% sure i was under budget when i sent the car in, but when i opened the car today it was magically $100 above the budget for some reason… i dont know if it is over budget on the one i sent to madcat so i wrote this story just in case :sweat_smile:

I have encountered a bug sometimes where the cost of the car stops updating when you change things. Exiting the editor and going back in usually fixes it. You might have run afoul of that. Or you changed something like swaybar stiffness which can actually nudge you to the next $100 if you’re not careful!

Maybe your car has some morph issues? I’ve had that with a model I sent in for another challenge. It not only completely threw the fixtures out of their place, but also changed the specs. Just enough so I was above instead of right at the budget limit.

I think the best is to find out why it changed, and ask the host if the file they got has the same issue. If it is for example morph issues, it’s possible the challenge host doesn’t experience the problem and actually gets the car how you intended it. And if the host does experience the issue, you can ask if you are allowed to give your car another look, fixing the issue and sending in a revised file.

As like @mart1n2005 said: I don’t think the host will allow a car that is over budget, as that would open up to possible unfair advantages.

i totally understand and that’s great advice! ive asked madcat to review the file i sent and hopefully its still showing under budget for them. the morphs all look normal. its a big possibility that i mightve changed something so that it went over budget. im just gonna have to wait for an answer and see how it is.

CHEAP SOUTHEAST ASIAN BOX MPV

Henry wants a cheap car, and so he’s gonna get a cheap car. Introducing the 1980 Hinode Rusa 1200, upgraded slightly for the Finnish market. It’s got an engine, seats, and enough room for a second home in case Henry can’t keep up with his rent. It also has a locking diff for the icy roads, and slightly more safety than its Asian cousin because Yurop.

Cheap price and cheap maintenance. Only $9840 for a car that will last 50+ years in tropical conditions, at least.

Van and pickup models are also available, but Henry’s probably gonna opt for the MPV because it’s comfier than the van and pickup.
