Chevrolet spark 2011 a/t

Price: 200k


Mahirap ba humanap ng pyesa? Sa province po kasi gagamitin.

First time bibili ng car and gusto ko po sana malaman pros and cons ng chev spark.

Ano po ba ang the best na compact/hatchback car? Yung madali po imaintain, matipid sa gas at madali po hanapan ng parts? Sorry po madami tanong.

Thanks.[emoji846]

Had some service experience w/ 3 company issued Sonics, which is sorta under Chevy's Gamma II global platform....meaning, the US-assembled share parts w/ those sold here, not all. Dealership prices are high, higher than shipping them in from US vendors...& you have to be resourceful in finding the precise part numbers if your local dealership won't be helpful. Availability outside dealership can be limited.
Though they have had no major issues, aging will mean a refresh of wear items soon. 1 needed 2 new engine mounts, valve cover seal...all ordered from the US for less than $100. Here the mounts were more each....just an idea. Oh, the cars never saw dealership PMS, we DIY'd them from new.
I presume the Spark to be similar or more challenging as it gets older. Ph Spark population, though higher than the Sonic, is still considered endangered.
If you're not handy w/ cars, I'd say stay away....& stick to what the good dr. d prescribed... common nippons.
