what shall i buy?

[raynardfl]

Profile:

I'm targetting 2011 to buy, but not in a hurry, at all.

Brandnew.

Budget 850K, Down ni daddy, ill pay for the 5 year installments

It'll be my personal vehicle. Daily sa office, Sta mesa - UP Diliman Route.

Weekends sa galaan, within MMLA or nearby provinces.

The catch is, we dont have a family car yet, and no plans for the next 2 years, so a 7-seater ++ is preferred.

We are particular about the after-purchase expenses such as FC, maintenance cost, etc.

As a noob, I'm not looking into reselling it, but my dad is particular with resale value.

Prospects:
avanza - my dad's preference. 1.5L. he like that its smaller. i just thought the 1.5L is with the same price of the innova j.


innova - my preference. i think its the better vehicle. i think ill choose the 2.5J D4d .I heard the D4D is alredy solved, and that the higher cost of dsl is a myth, and that the tip is just to get quality Diesel.

alternatives are accepted.

Mitsubishi Adventure - GLX or GLS Sport
Nissan Grand Livina - Base model
Suzuki APV - Top line


Why not try going second hand???? Current budget would give you small choices.

kung avanza lang din, mag-adventure ka nalang. kung Innova, just get the VVTI, yung d4d may mga issues pa rin at may kakilala ako na 2010 innova d4d nag-choke pa rin. pero kayo naman ang bibili so its up to you.

what do you say about the:

FC
dsl maintennance
d4d issue

If your dad insists that you get the Avanza 1.5G over the Innova, then tell him to get an Adventure GLS or Super Sport instead. Much more good looking and can occupy more people.

However, if your dad is okay with the Innova J .. then go. Hindi siya bad choice but syempre better if kaya istrech hanggang Innova E ..
