    Hello we are planning to buy an suv next week so mdyo kailngan na namin magdecide what to buy hehe. Budget is 300k-450K the cheaper the better hehe. bali gamitin siya for everyday use and pang out of town din. so based on my research ang mga choices ko is Pajero local na 1994-1996 models and meron din ako nakita trooper local 1997 model. nissan safari 94-96 is also a choice kaso i read in the forums na lakas gas consumption nya e. tapos ang concern ko naman sa pajero is sabi nila mabagal daw? what engine spec ba ng pajero sa model na yan?.... so bali yan yata yung mga choices ko pero if you guys can suggest other models or brands pahelp nalang para makadecide na kami agad hehe. Important po yung tipid ang fuel consumption and mabilis naman sana yung suv para hindi boring drive pag out of town hehe :D Hope to have your thoughts soon :D

    I doubt if the Pajero, Trooper & Safari will fall under your budget (unless it's a converted ex-JDM unit). These units currently sell for roughly 500K+.

    Plus none of these SUVs are "mabilis" relatively (well... compared to a 1.6L compact sedan). These are workhorses designed to go off-roading if needed. If you want something that's fast, you can look at 1st gen Rav4 & CR-Vs instead.

    Suzuki Vitara pare! (halatang biased hehe). Pero in terms of maintenance, durability and speed you can never go wrong with a vitara.

    The Pajero is the cheapest SUV to maintain in your choices.

    You could also get Gen 1 CR-V, Pajero iO/Pinin, Outlander or a Gen 1 Rav4.

    Some early gen2 Rav4 (year 2000/2001) are selling for around P550K.

    Kung mataas ang fuel efficiency sa choices mo, I'd say go for the Pajero kung pasok sa budget mo. Hindi mo din naman puwedeng hatawin safely yang mga iyan and should you insist, hindi naman ganun kahirap pabilisin yan. Parang may issue sa makina ng trooper eh -- not sure lang kung kasama yung model choice mo. And you ruled out the Safari based on fuel consumption. I think that'll rule out the Gen 1 CRV as well.
