Need help in deciding which 2nd hand car to buy

[octo84]

good buy na ba ang 2011 Civic 1.8s at 400k?
or ipon pa konti para makabili ng FB?
Mas prefer ko din kasi yung exterior and interior ng FB tsaka parang mas malamig yung A/C niya.

looks lang yata ang difference ng fd at fb, if you like it that much, ipon pa.

just my 2 cents, whether you plan to have it serviced periodically in the casa or not, have it serviced atleast once in the casa right after you buy it. they will check everything that need to to fixed, replaced or nearing that stage. get their engine oil too (it it fits your budget) and have them check if the previous owner had it serviced there or atleased complied with the airbag recalls.

The FD drives better than the FB. The FB rides softer, more like an Altis. A late model FD in decent condition is a good buy for around 400k.

Hi. I am a newbie here but been reading a lot on this site.

I almost have the same dilemma. I wanted to buy our 1st car, 2nd hand. I found a nissan sentra, mazda 3 and hyundai accent interesting. In terms of price mas mura yung 1st 2 (below 300k, model 2012 and 2009 respectively). Yung accent model 2012 nasa around 350k.

We wanted a car na magagamit namin ng at least 10 years. Plus na plus yung fuel efficient.

Please recommend.

no old car is reliable. but it can be serviced to almost reliable. engine fuel system lubrication, transmission, suspensions and mechanical parts, brake parts.

people sell their old vehicles because it probably needs servicing and parts.

find a mechanic to assess the vehicle and possibly repair it for you.

mahal servicing ng mazda as per our rank 1 moderator here

nissan has a huge following sa mga taxi folks if its not a taxi unit it could be your best bet. it is nearing 10yrs though.

accents are also taxi favorites. parts abundant perhaps? ill rule out the mazda.
