HELP: Best buy for budget 1m Php ??

**samural** · February 27th, 2009 01:56 PM

Hello everyone

Please help me out with your opinion:

I have a budget of roundabout 1 million Php and want to buy a new car.

- I don´care at all about brand or design or engine power or engine type or resale value

- Important are:
+ safety features,
+ driving comfort,
+ passenger space and loading room (I´m thinking about a 7-seater),
+ proper quality (no need for European style top quality, but no Chinese trash...).

- So far people mentioned Honda CR-V or RAV, Hyundai Tuscon, Kia Carens, Mitsubishi Outlander... But I don´t know if the priece range is accurate nor if there are OTHER models out there that might be a better fit

.

Thank you so much for your advise, appreciate it!!

Bye,

Hyundai Tucson can fit into your budget. The others will not. But its not a 7-seater. The only 7-seater is the Kia Carens. I doubt if you would want to get an Innova or an Adventure.

the cheapest Carens is at 1.2M.

Maybe you can up your budget by a little, its hard to get a 7 seater in tha price range..

Else, you can check on the Nissan Grand Livina, but im not sure if it fits 7.
Best car that you can fit on your budget is a diesel powered Kia Carens imo.

Nissan Livina seems to be the only logical choice at a budget of a P1M. It can seat 7 but I am not so sure if the 3rd row is comfortable... The high end Livina is less than P1M but already comes with leather seats... Other more barbaric suggestions are the Crosswind and Adventure but I would take the Livina over these two grand dad's anytime... The Carens sana, kaso mukhang out of budget na...

Gasoline - Nissan Grand Livina Luxury (mid variant) which is priced more or less at 900k
Diesel - Toyota Innova E which is more or less priced at 950k

masikip ang third row seating ng Livina. Ok for kids, pero not for adults.
grandis and carnival would be ok, pero labas na sa budget ni TS.

APV would seem to be the most logical choice, not sure lang about the safety features of this vehicle.
