How important is synastric compatibility between a car buyer and the car?
Can a good muhurta be quite enough to work over a synastrically incompatible car birth chart (or car first sight chart)?
What should avoid when purchasing a daily vehicle to avoid major inconveniences?
It has been observed that some people buy a fairly decent car, but then a never-ending series of problems begins. At the same time, another person buys an old car and it works very well and for a long time.
I remember stories from my youth when boys bought used motorcycles, etc., and some were just incredibly economical and reliable, while others were just a falling apart disaster when almost new.
It seems to be the same with cars - some technically inspected and good shape cars just fall apart all the time, while some old and quite worn-out cars work almost flawlessly for many years to come. There's something there.
What should a buyer avoid in their natal chart (transits, etc.) to avoid buying a car with unusually poor durability?
How much of a role can the color of the car and the license plate numbers play?
Are there any characteristics in a person's horoscope that would make it more harmonious for them to buy a small car or a large one? Or, for example, a vehicle with a gasoline engine or a diesel engine?
I can´t say that I have much astrological experience in this field.
A general rule though, even before getting into astrology: Car should be treated with respect, like a pet or people. They have a degree of consciousness. My magical wife is a car whisperer I dare to say and has some incredible stories - all true, I´m sure - about how cars with malfunction has worked when needed, and refused to ignite until the owner that yelled at them had asked for apology.
With that said: Mercury/Venus conjunctions in the chart is good for intuitively detective problems. The more unafflicted, the better. Whether it´s helpful in the concrete case depends on it´s position and relation to other things in the chart of course, but it´s also a general skill that the person has if it´s there.
Generally speaken Venus represents vehicles, of course, so a good Venus is more prone to give good car experiences.
In the Cards of Truth system, intuition is indicated by such cards as 3 and 9 of Diamonds. Ace of Spades tend to see deeper and may discover some problems. If related to cars in some ways - for example having Venus in one of those card, or being the Venus card, it may help. Let´s say it´s in the year spread - well, maybe it´s a good time for purchasing a card then, at least it may help you to choose wisely. But even more so if it´s a positive, fulfilling diamond like 6D or 10D. A good omen.
The nakshatra Mulatrikona is good for revealing secrets too.
8th house and cusp - secrets and also breakdowns.
Mars has to do with mechanical things.
Those are a few things that come to my mind.

Ernst has spoken at length in various courses about cars and Venus along with D16. A good muhurta should help a lot in selecting a better car. This is an interesting question right now in the USA. Venus is EX but under affliction with Saturn and Rahu, Mercury is also there. One could wait till Venus is in Taurus without those afflictions but with new tariffs most car prices will increase by five figures so is it better to chance the afflictions present and go for a good muhurta or risk paying a lot more later?
Yes, cars are sensitive - sometimes can notice that the faults and repair needs are somehow similar to those of a person who drives a car every day, for example, if the car has problems with the brakes, then quite often the person also has pain in their knees or back, etc.
Sometimes there are cases where, for some people, when they are in a car, their cars tend to break down. Years ago, I knew a young woman who when got into someone's car, either a tire blew out or the engine wouldn't start, anything could happen really often. People noticed this and soon no one wanted to take this woman into their car.
There is something there, there is a kind of relationship between people and cars or vehicles. Another thing is motorcycles, when someone else rides your motorcycle, there tends to be a bit of a strange feeling afterwards, as if some strange energy has arisen and it gradually dissipates. I have heard this opinion from quite a few people who have lent their motorcycle to someone else for some reason.
Venus and D-16, yes I remeber now, it´s important. Anyway, thanks for opinions, everything can help.
Can we also use avasthas for vehicles?
For example, if the vehicle has a conjunction of the Moon and Saturn in the chart, to be more careful?
