Civic 1.8S or Hyundai i30 gas or Tucson CRDi 2WD

[pup2]

Considering a replacement car for my sis' 5-year old Honda City. These are my 3 finalists based on service/durability/fuel efficiency/maintenance cost. Di kasi marunong mag kumpuni yun kaya dapat uber reliable, pero ayaw ko ng Toyota.

And dapat din matipid. Ise-share din siya with me and my other sis. Ang budget nasa 900-950K. Car will be a DD with a FEW out-of-town trips.


Fire away ...

^^ i would still go for the tucson.

Tucson fits all category. CRDi so mas matipid, higher ground clearance than the two sedans, more flexible than the two sedans...

If the acquisition price is around or more than 1 M--a CUV or even an AUV is more practical than a sedan, IMO. Unless one of the major consideration is that of a "something of a statement...or showing off" kind.

[alwayz_yummy]

tuc = sportage diba.. may 2wd bang sportage?

[Sgt. Atarms]

mag-CRDI ka na P22/liter na ang diesel. when I went to balloon fest sa clark, ang na-spend ko lang ata eh around P300.00. 23.xx ang bigay sa'kin ng shell noon (puv diesel kasi kilala ko may-ari). around 1.4K full tank.

halos 1/2 ng 1/4 bracket lang ang na-consume ng SF ko

tucson for me

Why not the Hyundai i30 Diesel?

Saves you the cost of fuel and it's also lighter than some lumbering SUV. Easier to park and drive. It has more than enough power to match other petrol powered compact cars in the local market.

haha, so you went there to clark pala. We used the my dad's 1.8s civic going there. consumed about 25 liters of fuel back and forth (plus trips to the hotel, getting lost in angeles and restos) in the city the civic is awesome but in the parking at the field, its low ground clearance did prove problematic. i kept hearing noises for every shrub, and stone that hits the underchassis of the civic. My altis has a higher ground clearancea and better FC.

Yup, that's why it's on the list. Can't find any feedback on it though. Mukhang slow mover.

Tuc's good also kaya lang the Crdi 2wd seems spare on safety features on paper. But I'll know more when I look at a unit. Equally important though, it's a tad over budget at 1.1 ... , maybe lui can help?

[tidus1203]

Kaya slow mover yung i30 its because of the PRICE. Sobrang alangin talaga. Mas mahal sya sa mga mainstream competitors nya like the Civic and Corolla tapos mas more or less pa sya sa Tucson gas so if one goes to a Hyundai showroom and yousee the price of the i30 and a Tucson one would probably be more biased for the Tucson since its more metal for your money.

[Autobeat]

I would reco the Tucson.

[Horsepower]

for the price, don't you think mas Ok ang Sportage CRDI?

For the i30, mag-Ford Focus TDCI 6-speed dual clutch ka na lang.

[tidus1203]

Looks like the TS budget is sub P1M so I guess out na yang Focus TDCi. As for the Sportage nasa TS na yan if he can stretch his budget. Pansin nyo Tucson GAS, i30 GAS, and Civic 1.8S all of these are sub-P1M car's...

Tucson CRDI 2WD daw.

I recommend the Sportage CRDI simply because it looks way better - and it's practically the same as tuc anyway.

[tidus1203]

Ah yes CRDi pala, naduduling na ako...

[Djerms]

tukson bro

[testament11]

tucson ako. ground clearance, panlaban sa baha, compact suv, more space, plus crdi diesel! diesel pa naman eh pababa ang presyo, kaya go for diesel!

[pup2]

Yep, sub 1M ang budget. Nasama lang ang crdi tuc kasi pinakamura siya na cuv -- baka sakaling may promo o display unit na for sale ... kung hindi maka tawad though, it's out just like the focus crdi.
