The price seems fair since it's already the facelifted version. try to haggle 20-40k less.

January 4th, 2013 03:38 PM #4Ay, ayun na nga pala. Found the hidden Sulit ID. Hehe~
Considered low mileage na yung car and very low priced, so I'd say its worth a look. Have an eye for signs of being flooded though. And since 1.8L to, don't expect much in terms of performance.
I say if you're gonna negotiate, considering that there's nothing wrong with the car, I think you can have a starting point of 350k.
But then the resale values of Toyota cars are high. Are you sure this is the one you want? You know you can get a slightly newer 2.3L Ford Escape for less.Last edited by GTi; January 4th, 2013 at 03:41 PM.

January 4th, 2013 09:48 PM #6Sir one more thing, what's with the 1.8L engine? Panget ba performance ng mga 1.8? Makain ba sya sa gas? The higher the number ba mas panget performance? I've heard 1.3 engines are good.
Tsaka parang ang hirap makahanap ng Escape na MT, puro AT halos sa mga buy&sell websites.
By the way, I've seen the car in person, yung brake-light sa left tail light ayaw magwork. The seller claims pundido lang daw. But somehow I don't believe it, yung car kasi ng sister ko is about the same age pero gumagana pa lahat ng ilaw. What might be the cause of it?
Thank you very much sa mga replies mga sir!

Sir AFAIK walang MT na Escape satin. About naman sa engine size, generally the displacement/engine size is directly proportional to its fuel consumption, meaning masmalaking makina, masmalakas sa krudo. So yung 1.3 definitely ay tipid compared sa 1.8. But the thing is, smaller engines are fit for smaller cars lang. For a CUV/mini SUV like that 2005 Rav4, 1.8 would seem to be underpowered. Normally for that car size is 2.0 to 2.5 ang makina. That's what they meant about not expecting much about its performance. HTH! :D

Actually ok naman ang 1.8 RAV4 pero hindi na maganda pag high speeds.
Although my second gen RAV4 article is slated for April release, I will quote some parts
Alongside with the rivals, prices are the same at the used car market. Same time competitors can be found in the territory of P300,000-P500,000.
a 1ZZ-FE 1,794cc that has 145hp at 6,000rpm and 188Nm at 4,200rpm complemented with a 4x2 drive train. If you can recall this engine, it is shared with the Toyota Corolla Altis in their upper tier models, but a manual transmission was paired rather than the Altis's automatic.the 1.8 has adequate power but going at high speeds, it will make you wish that you had more grunt. The 2.0 is smooth and quiet that it is not plagued by 4,000rpm noises from inline four Toyotas of old, but sometimes, it has to be revved more especially that stepping more is needed to go on decent speeds.Hill climbing is a weak spot for the RAV4, especially that it tends to downshift and the weight penalty can be felt.
handling can be described as accomplished and steering reacts to your desires. Understeer is evident when cornering at speeds 80kph and above, while the suspension can transmit all road bumps which makes the riding and driving experience a let down, no thanks to the choppy and bouncy ride the passengers feel.
