    At interior color, yung 1999 na SVX may beige interior. Lahat ng millenium na SVX black interior na.

    Tapos folding na yung sandalan sa front center seat.

My tight budget is 350k to slightly higher, say up to 380k. My wife sometimes drives also, so she prefers matic.

    I am looking at some prospects:
    1. Toyota - REVO VX200, Avanza or if available Innova J
    2. Mits - Adventure, Spacegear, Serena
    3. Hyundai - Starex(intercooler models)
    4. Honda - CRV (2nd generation)
    5. Japan surplus - Granvia, El grand, Serena, Pajero, Hiace

    What will fit my needs? In terms of fuel efficiency & repairs, what is the best? I also would want a van which can handle some long travels (Pampanga, Tagaytay, Subic and once a year Baguio)

    We have a 01' Honda Civic VTI-S and I am having a hard time fitting all of us.

    Thanks in advance for helping me and my family.
    Hi! I'm currently selling our Van.. Already PMed you my contact number.. Thanks!

    M leaning towards the Avanza na bnew. J model only. I rode some Avanza taxis and talked with the drivers. Their feedbacks are good. Even 1 travel his Avanza every other day going to Bicol. Easier to maintain, very good FC, aircon is cool. 50% down nalang with around 7k monthly. At least, I dont worry the car being flooded or any wear & tear problems. Matagtag lang konti but medyo ok naman.

    What do you think guys?

    Congrats!!! If you can, try getting a second hand Innova Diesel (assuming a down payment) or a second hand Avanza G.

    But congrats again!

    I personally find the Avanza too small. IMHO its cramped, unrefined and underpowered (1.3L engine for a 7 seater?!) And if you seat all 7 people there is no place to put their stuff. I'd still suggest you get the Starex. At least you get to seat 9 people, still have space for their stuff at the back and on the roof rack and have ample power to climb the slopes of Baguio and enjoy the benefits of having a diesel powered car.

    I am still without a choice. My brother in-law has a friend selling his 2005 Nissan X-trail 2.0 model for 390thou. What are the feedbacks of this SUV?

    The Avanza is quite small. The Millenium Starex seems higher priced these days. Innova and Revo seems to be gas guzzlers.

    Kung hindi naman kayo malalaking tao, let us say averagde pinoy size, ok na avanza. Dali pa ng akyat-baba due to folding 2nd row seats. Matipis naman ito basta marunong ka lang magrelax sa pagdrive. Fleet vehicle namin dati, hindi pa ako pinahiya.
    Fasten your seatbelt! Or else... Driven To Thrill!
