    Hi! I'm planning to buy a car. Im 19 years old, student. Driving everyday from Parañaque to Katipunan.

    My budget is around 250k

    Gusto ko sana Vios 1.3E '06 because of the fuel efficiency.

    kaso nag aalangan ako kasi sabi nila TAXI.

    Can you guys suggest a car na around 250k budget.

    Thanks!

    The Vios is a reliable and no frills car, which is why it became the pick of taxi companies. Cab drivers would want a fuel efficient and worry free car, and the Vios suits the bill. This is a good thing, actually. But, 250k will normally only get you a battered, base spec Vios. I'd suggest you look elsewhere also. Consider the Honda City Type-Z. It's got more horses than the Vios, and you can get one in pretty good condition for your budget. Or, you can get a Ford Lynx. Manual only, of course. Matic Lynx's are heavy drinkers. Napakaporma neto and you get lots of features along with good performance.

    Wow! So presyong pangkaibigan ba yan? 2006 pa naman, kunin mo na! As long as you're sure about the condition of your neighbor's Vios at alam mong di niya nilalaspag yan that is.

    For 300k, other options I'd suggest are: Nissan Sentra 1.6M/T, Ford Escape M/T, Ford Lynx M/T, Honda Civic VTEC3 and some earlier Ford Focus units.

    e ano naman kung mukhang taxi, kaya nga kasi ginagawang taxi kasi reliable, matibay, pangmatagalan, matipid saka easy to maintain at atleast may kotse ka hindi ka na mag-cocommute, hindi ka na makikipagsiksikan sa bus, jeep at MRT, di ka na rin mahihirapan magantay ng taxi, e baka pa nga yang mga nagsasabi na mukhang taxi yan bibilhin mo e baka nag-cocommute lang o wala pang kotse,

    ewan ko lang kung sabihin pa nilang pang-taxi pa ang mga ganito,







    ang gaganda naman ng mga taxi to'

    BTT: for a budget of 250k, you can already have Honda Civic Dimension (yung mga 2001 - 2004 civic) VTi-s, 1998 - 2000 Honda CRV MT (1st Gen CRV), Nissan Sentra.

    Well he did say he's extended the budget to 300k, which opens up many other possibilities.
