Which car brand is easy to maintain?

[1D4LV]

for me, i think most japanese cars are easy to maintain, except for the high end ones such as the subaru, etc. parts are always available. include some euros like the BMW and the Benz, in which, parts are also easy to find, but a bit more expensive compared to the japanese cars.

again for me, the hardest car to maintain are the opels because of the scarcity of parts.

Tama si XTO. Yung madalas gawing taxi, yun ang reliable at madali imaintain. Isipin mo na lang ilang daang kilometro tinatakbo nyan araw araw, kahit laspag takbo pa rin. Grabe yung reply nung iba dito, ginawang research paper yung mga sagot. Toyota na lang kung sa maintenance ang pinaguusapan.

In terms of maintenance, OK naman ang Honda at Nissan. Ayos pa ang performance.

Any car brand, except the high-end brands, are easy to maintain. Nasa sistema at dedikasyon lang yan ng owner.

May point nga naman regarding the taxis. But I'm guessing the real aim of this thread is to enlighten readers that Toyota is not the only choice when it comes to ease of maintenance.

Besides, although marami ngang taxi na bigbody/lovelife/altis/vios, meron pa rin namang mga lumang kia pride, lancer at mga sentra na taxi.

Kung basihan e easy to maintain at taxi dati at cheap pa (collision, electricals, mechanicals, glass, etc.) me tatalo pa ba sa KIA Pride? Easy and dirt cheap.

Kung easy to maintain means minimum maintenance dahil pulido sa design e high brand yan na asian car. In general....hanapin mo na lang sa Internet para makita mo kung anong kotse or car maker gumagawa ng matinong kotse sa Asia. (google->best asian car)

Pero alalahanin mo you spend so much time in your car kahit hatid sundo lang. Di ba mas maganda me personal na dating, or me dating kotse mo? Hindi man mukhang pang politiko or pang mayaman, e at least pang iyo.

Kung ok naman sa iyo na kahit ano, at sanay ka sa taxi (at maligaya ka sa ganito) di get a taxi-like car.

Kung saan ka maligaya.....

I would say Toyota

from my own experience,
yung 94 1.3 Lancer ko agad kumalampag. ilan beses ako nagpalit ng stabilizer link. pati yung sa steering. sira din agad aircon.
yung 00 1.3 Sentra ko malakas sa gas. 8km/liter. can't see the difference na mas malakas aircon nila.
itong 05 1.3 Vios ko wala pang binibigay na problem. matipid pa sa gas. 12km/liter.
i wish to try Honda next year. every 10,000 kms lang daw kasi PMS.

I think toyota, mitsubishi, nissan and honda models are all easy to maintain considering that the first three brands which I have mentioned are being chosen by taxi fleet owners.

I second the motion!
