    Hey guys, with the ever increasing gasoline prices, I am thinking of buying a 2nd hand car that can give me value for my money in terms of fuel consumption. What would be the best option if my budget is below 100k? I will just use it in going to work everyday. No need for the "porma" effect or power, i just want something that is economical, easy to find and cheap parts and low maintenance car. What would you recommend? I am thinking of the Kia Pride CD5. Any other suggestions?

    Maybe just get a new motorcycle nalang.

    Cuz by the time you get a car worth less than 100k, you will probably encounter alot of maintenance cost as well.

    I actually have a motorcycle which I use when I travel alone. However, I have a son who is in prep now and he goes with me when I go to the office everyday. I am thinking that I just have to really select a well-maintained 2nd hand car to minimize added repair costs.

    It is not remotely possible to find a 'good' car for 100k. It's simply a matter of being patient enough to look deeper into prospective units, but there are some out there.

    If you find some Corollas in that price range, most likely it will be the carburated ones. Same goes for Kia Prides, Nissan Sentra LECs (although some parts from Nissan maybe be a bit expensive until now).


    Good Luck!

    SAYANG!!! I just sold my '91 Civic EF 4door for 80k, its not perfect but it runs well. I bought it 2 months ago on impulse because it was offered to me for only 5k , but the engine was completely trashed. I bought a surplus PH12 engine for 5.5k then had it repainted and also changed the tires as they were completely worn out. Total cost of the car is 40k, so when the first buyer offered 80k for it the deal was sealed instantly.

    kia pride cd-5! (slightly biased hehe)

    you can get a reasonable 'base' model for around 50-60k and splurge the remaining 40-50k for repairs. for that amount, you can get a new engine (1.5 mazda), power steering, power windows and power side mirrors and probably have some spare for a decent set of mags.

    good luck!
