    Still on the fence. Safety rin primary consideration ko talaga since hatid sundo ng kids. Reliability and service next kasi safe car nga, matagal naman garahe kasi walang parts so big concern din yun.

    Both cars seem to be great, so nakakabaliw. Blessing na lang din siguro na kahit anong piliin, di naman magkakamali talaga.

    On fuel alone, you save approx 2k per month with the Jetta than the Civic. Not to mention the peppier nature of the diesel in citt driving.

    Now weigh that against the certainty that the Civic will have better parts availability and ease of maintenance in the long run.

    It really depends on what you value more.

    On maintenance, I average around 3k pesos per PMS every 10,000 km. Except the 40,000 km PMS which included replacement of all fluids including CVT fluid - total was 15k.

    VW maintenance comes in fewer intervals (every 15,000 km), but PMS is around 7k if I'm not mistaken.

    Talaga? I average 8 to 10k having my hrv serviced every 6 months. Iniintay ko lang matapos warranty, then I'll have it done outside na. Patanggal ko nga lahat nun ibang extras baka ganiyan na rin mapababa yun akin. Buti na lang sagot ng company ang pms for the next 5 years. Hehe.

    You can always have items removed from your PMS. Lagi ko pinapatanggal yung unnecessary stuff. Just follow what the manual requires.

    I also get free PMS and fuel but that I still try to be frugal about my spending.
