    Generally it would be the Toyota Corolla... your choice if 1.4 or 1.6 version.

    AE111 (love life corolla) will be newer but the interior is a bit more cramped. The older AE101 (big body corolla) has a bigger interior. Mechanically, both models share many parts between them so easy enough to find parts.

    Alternative choice would the Nissan Sentra. Your choice of 1.3L or 1.4L or 1.6L engines. Generally stay with the 1.4 as a good balance of fuel economy with power.

    With the newer B14 sentra, avoid the EXALTA models as they are heavier and tend to consume more fuel. Mechanically the B13 and B14 Sentras share many mechanical components. The only place they differ is the rear suspension. The B13 has the independent rear suspension design. The B14 has the beam type suspension.

    The B13 sentra also came out with the LEC version which is underpowered and is pretty much stripped down of most power amenities. I suggest to avoid this particular model since you can get spare parts easier for the 1.4 and 1.6 variants.

    Luma na rin sir kaya don't expect too much on fuel consumption. I'd pick either Lancer or Corolla.

    for me choose B13 Nissan Sentra ECCS. all power,efi, having 1.6 engine.

    I have this car B13 ECCS 92 model and the FC is 8-9 km/li on city driving and 12-14 km/li sa hiway. AC always on.

    Regarding sa parts, madaming available parts ang nissan and hindi naman mahal ang pyesa nya. AC is very cold because it is nissan.

    I would suggest you get a Sentra B14 super saloon. That's a good start up car.

    If you could get 98-99 model, that would be a bit updated with safety features cos it already comes with ABS and driver's side airbag.

    Another nice choice would be a 'lovelife' AE111 Corolla GLi. Piece of advice, please get the fuel injected (TOTL) variants. Best value IMO.

    i will go for LEC PS. it is fuel efficient, easy to maintain and probably cheaper than what the others had suggested. since it is a nissan, you will be assured of cool aircon systems and reliable suspension, malambot. just my 2 cents. i had one before and i really love it.
