The thing with Yokin 3 is not all dealers will really change your oil and other parts if the vehicle is low mileage ...

Really? Is this stipulated in the terms of the Yojin3 promo? I guess this is not good to hear for folks who use their Mazda cars on short routes.

Our family own a mobilio and I like Honda's service.

Crossovers however high ground clearance they may have, will always have an engine closer to the ground than a ladder frame SUV. So in flood wading terms, it can't ford water as deep even if it has the same clearance.

Anyway, for the mere interior alone the HR-V wins it by a landslide. The ASX interior is just so dull and boring. They added the chrome moustache which looks ridiculous.

If you're paying for the service and consumables, dealers will require you to follow 6 months or 5,000 kms whichever comes first ... but if it's a free services, dealers will follow the distance / mileage reading ...

Not true. My 3 is nowhere close to its required mileage (10k a year actual usage vs 10k/6 mos) and they still change the oil. The service bay is visible from the reception area so customers can observe the process.

Mitsubishi is third after Honda and Hyundai in terms of aftersales satisfaction so I guess they're doing something right (J.D. Power 217 Philippines Customer Service Index (CSI) Study | J.D. Power). I'm not sure which casas they surveyed though because Valle Verde is always packed and Pasong Tamo had bad reviews. We bring our Mirage to the Pasay branch across Heritage Hotel and so far they've met the standards of my very picky father-in-law.

The ASX can be had with discounts but good luck looking for a test drive unit. Honda BGC has test units readily available and the HR-V is a fun to drive car that feels light and comfy. Have you considered the Chevy Trax?

hindi ko talaga makita kung ano anggulo ng Hyundai to stop the Creta model at CRDI MT, walang CRDi AT. why anong logic? it may eat the sales of the AT Tucson CRDi. ang labo. I mean I understand why they offered the creta gasoline here to challenge the ecosport at ecosport price range. so bakit nag-offer pa ng CRDi na biten. labo talaga

Hi guys! (Just gonna ride on this post 'cause I can't start my own thread yet, sorry!)

I'm thinking of purchasing my first car for personal use and as of now I'm really confused haha. The car would be primarily for getting around Metro Manila with occasional long drives here and there. I personally prefer mid-sized cars (nothing too big or too small). As of now, my choices are: Nissan Juke, Subaru XV, Honda HR-V, and Mazda CX-3. Some suggestions would be great!Thanks!

Your choices are subcompact crossovers. A midsize car is the likes of an Accord, Mazda6, and Camry.

Go to a dealer and check out your choices. Opinions and choices vary among people here. It is best you choose the vehicle that fits your needs. If you ask me, I'd go with the XV among your choices.
