Budget Crossovers

[slapz]

Gas yan Sir. It's a 2.0L DOHC VVT 16V

Full size pala spare tire nito...great value.

Congrats Sir.

Wala pa boss.

Lpg..?????

Ahaha! Meron nga, pero mukha ngang busted yung isang tail light kung nakasindi, kasi isang side lang meron.. tapos kapag reverse naman, yung sa other side naman. So sa left, foglamp, sa right, reverse light.

Mas gusto ko yung ganitong set-up kaysa sa parehong side may RFL at parehong side may reverse lamp. May sinsusundan ako kaninang Cruze, dalawa yung RFL, medyo weird kasi mukhang maliwanag na tail lights lang. Mas halatang may RFL pag isang bulb lang ala Focus.

What did you consider, Sir, when you bought the Tiggo? Remember the decision-making you had? What did you look at? Or is it just because its cheap? So that I could compare it to mine. Baka kasi pareho lang, blinded lang pala sa price, and things like that. Thank you, Sir!

Hindi sir. LPG.

Pano ka ma-blind sa price eh mahal din sya at 799k. Since china made yan dapat presyong 500k irregardless Kung complete specs kahit ba may electronic seats yan or gps eh.

Parang tablet pc Lang yan, the iPads are the most expensive, then android tabs na gawa ng mainstream tech brands and the china brands na tig 3k to 4k Lang.

The Kia soul is 899K, the SX4 is also 899k but can be discounted as much as 90k accdg to SX4 thread, but these are established brands not to mention AT na Ito mga Ito.

Yan MT lang yan, tapos sapalaran pa. Tsk tsk Hindi worth yan. Talo ka dyan bro.

Considering na may ad valorem at custom duties tax ang cars na ilagay na natin sa 50%, ang halaga talaga nyan sa mata ng Chinese manufacturer as well as dealer eh 400k Lang. tingen mo susuportahan nila yan. I doubt.

At least with the known brands sanay sila dyan coz they can sell at volume.

Wag mo na bilhin, Kung gusto mo SUV, better get a used 3rd gen CRV na nasa 600k LNG ngaun, talong - talo

Joke lang syempre.

Ito namang si Sir Pop3Corn. Kia Soul and SX4 are small, Kia Soul is smaller. and is currently being sold at P918K. SX4 is at P899K, parts are even harder to source.

Cargo Sizes 2nd Row Seats Up:
SX4: 253 Liters
Soul: No Data yet, probably lower
Haima7: 453 Liters
So you can just use the roof of the SX4, same can be said with the Haima7.

Besides, I like a M/T, kung sanang may M/T ang SX4, baka malaking contender yun sa akin. Malamang, mga 800K lang nun yun, tapos may discount pa.

But don't worry, I will take a look at the SX4 and Soul naman tomorrow.

PS: Diba ayaw mo sa AT?! Sabi mo nakakataba?! ahaha!

Honestly, two things, first the price, second the looks, 70-80% look a like ng Fortuner.
For the parts and maintenance, hindi namin masyadong kinonsider that time dahil may machine shop sa farm, too late to learn that we can't fabricate everything.

Kamukha ng Rav4 bro

So, basically, even though you had a test drive, you were confident, because you can practically repair it anyway, tama ba intindi ko, Sir? You didn't care if what is around you is of poor quality? Sayang di ko kasi naabutan yung ibang mga Chinese Cars, so I really can't compare why people before made a decision to buy a Chinese Car.

Kelan pala nagbreakdown yung Tiggo mo Sir?

it's a gas?

yes.

[slapz]

Sabi ko na nga ba, nangopya lang ang Toyota Rav4 sa Tiggo! Langyang Toyota yan!

Anyway, I am reading on the Chery Cars Thread. Let's see what they are saying about the Tiggo in 2007.

Update: Grabe naman pala ang hype ng Chery noon.

Update again: The Tiggo was sold * P728K in 2007?!

Yes sir, may mga mekaniko kasi kami sa farm kung saan dadalhin yung Tiggo at L300, mayron kaming 12 yr old L200 dun na in good running condition pa kahit na grabe na ang mga paint damages. Kaya confident kami, at that price hindi na kami lugi.
Breakdown started just after 10 months or so, steering unang nasira, then brake system then suspension. Yung engine hindi kona alam kung kailan nagsimulang magluko. In late 2010 nung mag visit ako dun, duon ko palang nalaman na totally condemned na yung Tiggo at kinakalwang na. Medyo uminit nga ulo ko, dahil naka assemble pa sila ng willys jeep pero yung SUV napabayaan. Piyesa ang reklamo ng mekaniko.

Sa test drive, hindi ako kasama nag test drive, yung father at brother kolang, around the mall parking area. Wala naman silang reklamo at wala din akong masabing visible defect at that time, at 500k convinced din ako na it's a good buy. At that time a brand new L300 VV is more than 600k.

I hope iba ang quality ng Haima 7.

[jut703]

Eh bakit sa Website ng toyota? Yung mga bago lang ba? kaya naman pala! So tama pa rin ako, kanina ko nga lang naexperience yung independent na yun.

Yung front suspension lang yung independent sa Innova. Double wishbone, like most ladder-frame MPVs.

Rear suspension is a rigid axle 4-link coil setup.

I am reading the Chery thread, at nasa page 45 na ako. ehehe! The Tiggo was sold * 728K in 2007, how come 500K lang yung sa inyo? Hmm.. Ganun kalaki discount?
May nabasa nga ako dun about dun sa SA, saying that parts are cheap and are already in place, kasabay ng mga Kotse, strangely, ganyan din ang sinabi ng SA ko. Hmmm.. Punta kaya ako dun sa Warehouse na sinasabi nya? Para makita ko yung mga parts, pwede kaya yun?

kaya naman pala iba yung ride nung Haima7. Magastos nga lang ang Independent 4-Wheel kapag may nasira noh?

500k lang sir yung price sa unit namin, may maliit na discount sa cash price kaya nasa 500k ang base price, pero hindi libre ang insurance. Hindi ko sure kung ilang trim meron ang Tiggo that year to have a price as high as 728k. At 728k, iisnabin na namin yan. How I wish now na 728k sana ang price na binigay sa amin, sigurado nag back out na kami , naka save pa sana kami ng 500k and end up buying a more reliable brand new pick up.

Sa parts, hindi naman pinagyabang sa amin ng SA na maraming parts na available ang sabi lang nya, may kaparehas na 555 parts daw. Which is partly true naman, may mga parts nga na available sa replacement 555 na brand, but not all.

[slapz]

It's funny reading the Chery Cars thread from 5 years ago. The same pa rin, even today, pare pareho parin sinasabi. Yung Chinese Car kaya, may improvement na kaya?

is it possible, what he meant was, the car IS the parts bin?? baklas lang nang baklas kapag may order for parts.. (of course this is a joke.. forgive me.. i couldn't resist..)

i use tools in the garage.. and i know how good tools feel, and how lousy tools feel.. and whenever i need to buy tools that will last to the next generation (like what my father did for me), i buy "made in U.S.A." or "made in germany" or, if i'm in a financial pinch, "made in japan"... but if the tools i will buy are destined to be lost or stolen, or will need to deliver only basic function, then i buy "fabrique au chine" , "made in india", "made in pakistan", and the like. hey! quality metal costs. how expensive do you want your tools to be?... same with cars..
remember.. everything looks good when factory brand new..

Ahaha! That is actually a good idea.

Yes, everything really looks good brand new, well, not for the Chery brand, I've been reading the thread, and the buyers practically ignored what they see, and are blinded by the price. I mean, andami ng lumabas na crash test nung QQ, but they're still saying "when you die, you die", blinded.

The Test Drive unit I used, is beaten, poorly maintained, hindi nga nacacarwash, and has 3.7K kilometerage (ayaw ko mileage, kasi miles dapat yun. ahaha!) So, somehow, you kinda see what the car will look like in real conditions. Unless, it was actually maintained, which is a good thing, right? They can maintain it.

[Verbl Kint]

Chery =! Haima -- kahit pa parehong China yan

It's akin to saying "Bro, don't buy a Toyota because I really had a bad experience with a brand new Daihatsu."

[slapz]

Well, that is actually the general thinking around here. Chery is like the whole Chinese Car Business... I actually think it's the Chery Phils management's fault.

Anyway... May Chery paba sa Pampanga? Para matignan ko mga yan.
Got the bank approval, just a matter of deciding now. Hmmm...
