What to buy for a 1st timer like me?

[Melchizedek]

Hi guys,

What Service Vehicle would fit my need for a 300K budget. 7 - 9max seater, na tipid sa fuel consumption.
Im choosing between, Adventure Diesel, Revo Diesel, but dipa rin maka hanap, Im considering Toyota Avanza, parang mas mabilis bulimi nito, besides newer model pa kahit gas...

Help po to enlighten me...
Salamat

Voting for the Adventure...

Personally I prefer the 7 seat version.

I'd suggest you also consider the Crosswind, 1st gen Everest, and Starex GRX.

Among your choices, I have driven the Revo diesel extensively as I had one as my daily driver for five years. 7-8km/L city, 12-14km/L highway, around 10km/L for a Baguio roundtrip. Cheap parts and easy to service. However, vibration is harsh, engine is noisy and performance is as slow as they come.

I once had the opportunity to ride a fairly new Adventure Uber (may it rest in peace). Though we know that it is basically the same car as it was almost 20 years ago, I have to say that NVH is much better than our old Revo. Perhaps Mitsubishi has at least blessed the newer units with better sound insulation?

I had a chance to own the three diesels (Adventure, Crosswind and Revo), among the three, the Adventure was the smoothest and quietest. If properly maintained, almost feels like a gasoline (not in the acceleration department though ). Worst is the Crosswind (pardon on the owners please), the vibration is so harsh I felt like having numb hands during long drive, especially in traffic. For a family car, I prefer the Adventure.

As for the Avanza, I owned one before, in Automatic Transmission version. It maybe not as economical and fast as say a 1.5 liter sedan, but it gets you there with more seating capacity. Plus the maintenance is so cheap. It only consumes 3 liters of engine oil, and 1.5 liters of automatic transmission oil during changes. You cannot compare though its loading capacity versus an Adventure as it is totally a small MPV.

Tyaga lang, Sir, may makikita ka ding maayos na Adventure.

Maki Hijack po TS maraming salamat!

Hi Tsikot Community,

gusto ko lang po sana humingi ng suggestion from your experience.

planning to buy a 2nd hand car with budget from 200-300k. preferably 2011 model and up.

Sedan or Hatchback only. group of four lang po and will be doing occasional long ride but mostly weekend city drive lang.

i'm looking at the following car model

Hyundai Accent
Hyundai Elantra
Mitsubishi Mirage G4
Nissan Almera

gusto ko lang po malaman kung in the long run ok naman po sila? kase balak ko syang gamiting for a long time

but hyundai elantra looks the best out of the 5. di po ako maalam sa mga car parts. total newbie po.

points to consider:

Spare parts availability
Maintenance Cost


maraming salamat po sa sasagot.

Hello, I really apologize but I can't seem to start a thread of my own and I really need advice on purchasing a 2nd hand car.

Sana po makahingi ako ng immediate advice sa inyo.... I currently own a 2002 Altis and planning to upgrade. The car is used only mostly during weekends (I ride a motorcycle to work) and out of town trips. Usually, kami lang ng wife and kid ko ang nakasakay.

I have 3 cars in mind (pasok sa budget) and I am planning to purchase before the month ends.

1. 2012/2013 Civic 1.8 MT/AT (9th gen) - the reason I like this Civic is ONLY just because it's a Civic. Maporma, 1.8 ung engine, saka parang considered na astig ka pag naka-civic. I'm just worried na mataas ang FC niya kasi nga 1.8 ung displacement. Hindi pa kasi ako nagkaka-Civic before so parang gusto ko i-try man lang. Also, 6-7yrs old na siya pag binili ko copared sa VIOS na 2-3 lang.

2. 2016/2017 Vios MT 1.3E - The only reason I prefer the Vios is because it will just be 2-3 yrs. old when I purchase it. So feeling ko this is the most practical option dahil medyo bago pa and mas matipid sa gas although sabi ng friends ko mahina daw hatak ng 1.3 engine and baka magsisi ako sa huli kung hindi ako kukuha ng civic or altis. Gusto ko din naman ung porma ng Vios kaya lang baka maliit para sa akin dahil sanay ako sa lumang Altis ko.

3. 2014 Altis MT 1.6E (10th gen) [/B]- This one I really like/prefer. Before gusto ko talaga ung Altis G/V 2011/2012 9th Gen but then narealize ko na kaya ko naman isagad ung budget ko for the 2014 10th gen model pero Manual trans nga lang. Gusto ko ung porma ng Altis talaga but napapaisip ako if mas ok ung CIVIC kung hindi rin naman ako mag vi-Vios. Also, alam ko stupid question pero mas OK naman talaga isagad ko na ung budget to purchase the 10th gen Altis than to settle with the Altis G/V 2011/2012 9th Gen diba?

Thanks in advance po for the advice. Again, I'm sorry to ride on this thread.

You can't go wrong alinman piliin mo, pero if I'd prioritize, personally, I'd choose the civic, then the altis and the vios last. Never did the math, feeling lang haha, FC difference between civic and vios hindi malayo. I've driven both to and fro Aurora when I was stationed there.
