20,000kms a year? [average annual mileage]

**anonemus** · October 8th, 2009 03:37 AM

Hello!

Just saw a 2003 Toyota Corolla LE lovelife dito sa Davao, selling for P260k. Odometer reading is almost 112,000 kms na. Previously owned by Splash Corp.

Sabi nung dealer average yearly travel daw ng sasakyan eh 20,000 kms. Akala ko naman 10,000 kms. Ano nga ba?

Also, bakit lovelife tawag sa Corolla?

Mga 10,000 km. average reading yearly ng sasakyan baka naman service company car iyan at madalas gamitin . Marami naman na nagbebenta ng ganyang modelo.

tama ka, speed. inamin naman nung dealer na service company nga ng Splash. Tiningnan namin ng kaibigan kong mekaniko kahapon at nag test drive din kami. What should I look for for cases like this?

Baka ang average nung kotseng yun ang sinasabi niyang 20T/year.

Baka mahilig sa long-drive yung previous owner katulad nung nabilhan ko ng 10-month-old na sasakyan, ALMOST 20T na ang ODO niya nun.

Duda ko Splash salesman yung previous user nung kotse kaya it averages 20,000 kms/year. Parang maayos naman ang pagka-maintain ng company.

Bukas I'll check it out again. Okay na ba ang presyo?

Kung maganda pa naman makina at loob .May mekaniko ka naman dala kung ibibigay ng mas mababa mga less than 200.000 para may allowance ka sa pagpapagawa kung masira. Para safe ka na .

20T Km a year is normal for a vehicle. I would say that if it was driven by a Salesman, it would have logged more.....

Find another car. Normal milage in Davao would be 10T km per year. If the car was owned by Splash, models like that would have been used by sales agents. These sales agents would've been assigned to Davao del Sur or Davao del Norte or both in which case they would definitely log more than 20T km annually. It's possible that the odometer has been tampered since it's being sold by a used car dealer already.

Lovelife was the promotional slogan for that particular model at the time.

Kaya pala lovelife! Thanks, Walter.

The car came from Manila as admitted by the dealer. And the plate starts with X. Yup, I'm still looking for better deals but so far this one is attractive...
