True for 2007. Not sure for 2008 but be sure to check first. Under warranty but could take some time for d parts.

2005-06 no prob.

If ur interested with Getz, check this:

I own a 1.1 getz. Sa issue ng kalampag wala naman siyang kalampag and I got the car Last December. Sa aircon medyo mahina talaga ang pag sa 1 nakalagay mas lalo na pag hapon pero pag gabi tama lang. Sulit talaga ang Getz and I'm very satisfied. FC is very good I travel 100 km a day and mixed city and hi way yun. Kasya ang 300 php balikan. I'm not a fan of computing my FC but I guess that price is reasonable for me. If you are buying this car I you would be crazy if you are buying it for speed. I agree with Niky, mahaba talaga ang 1st and 2nd gear ng getz but once nakakuha na ng momentum e medyo mabilis din naman. Hope you this info helps.

1.1 Getz is fairly reliable. Yan ang gamit ng maraming med reps in this part of the country.

But if I'm of a risk taker...will probably try Chana Benni just for the feature packed offering.

If not, I also consider the Kia Picanto. But personally, gusto ko yon Getz kaysa Picanto.

Visit their respective dealerships and view them first hand. One of them may just feel right.

But for that kind of money I'll widened my option to include a pre-owned Honda Jazz. Heck, I would even still consider an Esi Hatch as long as it is in pristine and excellent condition.

Meron the 1.4L midrange is A/T...

ah ok po.. crdi po ba yung 1.4 or gas engine? tnx

**tidus1203** · July 14th, 2008 03:22 PM

Its gas. The only CRDi is the 1.5L top line model. IMO the best buy is still the low end 1.1L the CRDi has a nice engine but very overpriced.

ah ok po. tnx sir tidus..

if you can stretch some more on your budget, getting the CRDi wouldn't be a bad choice, it has ample power to pull your car and accelerate uphill without sweat. with torque rating of around 25 kg-m (almost similar to toyota's 2.5li D4D), what more could you ask?

Hi guys! All of your inputs were very helpful.. I’ve been to the 2nd Philippine International Motor Show last Friday to take a look at the new Hyundai i10, and now I’m torn between Getz 1.1 and i10. I also consider the fact that Getz 1.1 will soon be phased out. What can you advise? Thanks so much.
