A close relative wants comments, so I volunteer. For a no-frills extended 12-seater family carrier that offers passenger comfort and easy drivability. Mostly provincial routes.
Anyone? TIA.

kung mag tci na starex ka, wag nalang. maiinis ka lang sa kupad...oo maganda hatak nyan pag walang laman, e do you think na di pupunuin yan? at since van yan, do you think na limited lang yan sa city use?
di na pinagiisipan yan, much better pa ang urvan estate!

The Urvan Estate is the one with the 3.o engine, right? It's the same engine in the Patrol and if you are going to use it as 'pang-harabas' maintenance will be a bit on the expensive side. You can't skimp on filters. The oil filter costs Php800.00 and there are two fuel filters. One costs Php1,700 and the other around Php1,200.
But so far the engine in my Patrol has been reliable (albeit a bit expensive to maintain engine-wise).
The Grand Starex is a good 9 seater but is not really ideal for 12 persons.

Thanks for the initial replies.
I was about to tell them to get the GRX Starex instead although it might turn them off kasi 2nd hand na mga ito.
Looks may not be very crucial in the decision kasi mga probinsyano gagamit but as OTEP have said, mas mahal pala maintenance ng Estate. Not to mention unit price is also higher.
So, di ba kakahiya mag-recommend sa base model ng 2009 Starex?

why not just the urvan..the one with TD27...not with the 3.0...
enormous body of the grand starex is the weak point of the g.starex. its the same engine used in the older models..where in most owners says its sluggish talaga...
better choice pa ung urvan-escapade...
ps- estate is same as patrol engine, minus the turbo...but with direct injection.
