[KERSMcRae]

Im a newbie, and im planning to buy a car. My initial budget is 50k. Some people says that it would only cause me headache. Can 50k not buy a decent car?I dont really mind the looks, I just want to have a car to ride as service and some long rides. Can you guys suggest what I should look for, what I should check when buying a car?

Thanks and Ride Safe to all!!!

for 50k, you can get a..

1. Kia CD5,
2. Owner-Type Jeep
3. motorcycle (underbone).

tama ang ibang tsikoteers. dagdagan mo pa budget mo TS. O kaya, pwede rin motor (kung marunong ka), i down mo ang 45k, tapos 5K for riding gears like helmet, shin/knee guards, etc.

salamat po sa mga reply.. all are greatly appreciated
currently i own a mio amore
complete gears na din for the rider and backride :D

need ko lang po kasi ng kotse para kahit paano kapag maraming dala or kasama mas madali bumiyahe..
At first I am also thinking of getting an owner-type jeep, problem is hindi ka pwede basta mag iwan ng kahit anong gamit, walang aircon at hindi kasi dry ng kotse kapag umuulan..

if you guys tell that a 50k-worth of car would not do me any good, then maybe I should really need to save some more.
Actually someone is selling me a mazda 323 astina for 50k, engine di pa nabuksan, tahimik pa, mileage is 190k.. Major problem is yung pintura, kasi sobrang kupas na ng hood and bubong dahil naka bilad lagi sa arawan, both shocks sa likod needs to be replaced..muntik ko na kunin, nag dalawang isip lang ako kasi wala ako kasama mekaniko nun..

Mahirap po yung ganyan na kotse dahil matagal na. Kita mo ang dami mo na kaagad aayusin at hindi ka pa nagdala ng mekaniko niyan, kundi siguradong hahaba pa ang listahan. 50k nga ang bili mo sa sasakyan pero God knows how much you'd have to spend para maayos ang sasakyan. I'd suggest you save up some more and get a B13 Sentra.

Sa 50k medjo mahirap nga.. pero kung yung astina na sinasabi mo is 50k dapat may extra budget ka para sa repair.. ok na sa price yun.. worst case budget mo sa engine nasa 25k... sa body kung maselan 15 to 20k... sa suspension 10k... sa aircon another 8k... interior mga 5k... assuming worst case na yun...

got my lancer Itlog dati at 70k.. hindi ako maselan sa paint snake skin na nga yun eh... aircon is ok.. engine is ok.. may sounds naman.. suspension is not that ok pero hindi parang taxi... baka ganoon yung condition nung astina I think ok na yun...

[renzo_d10]

Basta ang sakin kung maganda ang engine, suspension at aircon kahit pangit paint, ok na.

Madali lang remdyuhan pintura, magastos if something internal na.

A total of 150k para decent car naman mabili mo.

120k for the unit, 30k for repairs.

*TS, remember old and not properly maintained cars are not fuel efficient. I suggest you invest your P50k as down payment to a brand new standard ALTO then use the amount you save on gas for your monthly amortization.

Depende din naman sa gamit, may mga 1995 below na kotse that has not yet breached the 100tkms mark. If it is a regularly used car, I say around 150tkms and below should be reasonable.

Kahit siguro 120K kaya mo makukha ng maayos na nissan sentra b14. may ipapagawa at ipapagawa ka din talaga di maiiwasan yun sa pagbili ng 2nd hand car.

[galant E SS]

Tama ang advice ng majority na mga tsikoteers bro. TS, hwag kang magmadali in buying a 2nd hand car. Try to extend your budget up to 150K, more or less, kung pwede nga, save ka muna up to 200K and targetin mo ang late 90's japanese leading car brands like toyota, mitsubishi, honda and nissan.

Kahit sa multicab, ang decent condition is about 100-120K. I remember a friend of mine who bought an owner type jeep with isuzu gemini engine for 50K, halos pareho o mas malaki na daw ang gastos nya sa parts and repairs kaysa unit price ng owner nya, worst, mga 4-5 months na ngayon di nya nagagamit, naloko pa ng mekaniko nya, ninakawan ng parts ang oto nya.

[renzo_d10]

*TS : yep, meron naman low down. Pero mahal monthly definitely

[jansky]

50k? wont do good at all.. increase your range


pde mo pang down ang 50k.. pero dapat handa ka rin sa monthly mo malaki din yan ranging 10-15k for 5years 30k for 3years..

kasi need ko lang talaga sasakyan for the coming rainy season.. medyo nahihirapan na kami kami umuulan at naka scooter lang eh, kahit kasi naka raincoat, minsan talaga hassle eh..

saan ba ang location mo bro?

if you really need a car, buy a sunday bulletin and make a short list. check mo yung mga price range. sa sulit at ayosdito pwede rin. also, try to increase your budget..

yung kapitbahay namin, Pride ang dating kotse niya, pinaayos at binenta., she bought a brand new knocking-accent (i can hear it).. ang balita ko ay 60K yata ang presyo bago pinaayos, tapos naging 70K.

In Cebu City, I saw some used (2nd hand) car dealers who are selling their cars thru installment, and asking a down payment of as low as PhP 40,000. I just did not have the time to visit those shops, nadaanan ko lang, pero nakita ko, most of their units are surplus korean cars, hyundai and kia. Meron din bang used car dealers in Manila who are selling their units thru installment? Ang nakikita ko, yong ibang seller, pwedeng bank financing, but IMHO, mga 3-5 year old cars lang ang pwedeng i-bank financing.

[plengski]

Batangas City po ako..siguro wag na lang ako mag madali.. ipon muna pandagdag
and malay natin along the way magkita kahit mga kia cd5 na ok pa nga hehe.. not really about the looks eh
pero sabi nyo nga, nasa itsura makikita din kung naalagaan ang sasakyan hehe

[Verbl Kint]

A buddy of mine was able to get a lancer itlog at that price. Needed around 20k worth in repairs. 1 year na tumatakbo ok naman, di pa tumitirik.
