    hello mga sir plano ko bumili ng secondhand sasakyan na super tipid sa maintenance na pang araw araw hatid sundo sa anak kung high school at nursery mga 3km away school nila sa bahay namin.

    budget 120 thousand only.

    choices for the moment:

    1. owner type jeep
    - meron binebenta sa akin kaibigan ko na mekaniko na owner, wrangler type jeep willys ang tatak medyo bulok na makina binebenta niya sa akin 20 thousand, plano ko palitan ng diesel engine like 4d56 o kaya yung makina ng hyundai grace kc meron na ako ganun unit at satisfied naman ako sa performance niya at consumo sa fuel siguro kung ilagay ko sa mas maliit na owner mas titipid pa consumo. balak ko rin gawin close yung owner at palagyan ng aircon ayon sa mekaniko swak naman budget ko hanggang sa repaint change engine sa LTO may matitira pa daw.

    2. may nakita rin ako toyota corolla model 89 at 90, price 80 thousand pesos gumagana lahat makina hanggang aircon pero may mga ayusin na konti gaya ng pag recondition sa makina at palit iba worn-out parts swak din budget ko kaya lang di na aabot hanggang sa repaint pero ok pa naman kung ito piliin ko mga after one year saka ako magpa repaint.

    problema ko lang dito kasi gasolina as of now yung presyo ng unleaded nasa 46 baka tataas pa kaya advantage pa rin diesel.

    3. multicab suzuki pwede ko makuha sa installment kasi kung brand new kulang sa budget. problema nito gaya sa pangalawang choice gasolina din at wala pa aircon.


    ano kaya sa palagay niyo? ok lang ba yung 1st choice ko na recondition ko nalang yung owner type jeep?

    many thanks po sa inyo!

    Iyong first choice mo iyong recondition na owner type jeep at satisfied ka naman sa hyundai grace na makina na ikakabit mo at kabisado mo na ito at matipid sa gasolina at performance ng makina iyon na lang sundin mo para kung sakali mang magkaroon ng sira kaya mo ng gawin ito.

    Ride comfort = Corolla

    6 km round trip

    cost of fuel ~ P30-40 per round trip

    bro at 120k may makukuha ka na ok na ok na at wala na masyado pagawa..

    pero for that short trip diesel or gas engine malakas pa rin sa konsumo gawa ng very short ang travel mo.. sa start stop pa lang ng engine malakas na eh..

    btw, kung sa owner type jeep lang din sa suzuki multicab na ako.. madami parts, tipid sa gas and you got the name and durability ng suzuki..meron din model ito na may aircon at all power pa.. got mine at 150k super tipid at all power

    Well. You can get a decent 90's corolla at 120k. You can top up at 10km/l. With aircon included. But I doubt it if it would reach 15km/l, even without aircon, possible but there's still no one to prove it.

    Among the 3, the owner type jeep is a no-brainer. No aircon, no windows, no comfy seats and stuff which the corolla can give.

    If you want, there are other alternatives that you could consider. In example of this is the Nissan LEC , Nissan Sunny, Kia pride etc. etc. Just search through the net and there's a lot !

    One thing to put in mind though. No matter how great a vehicle looks outside, this shouldn't be your only basis if it's in A1 condition...best option still would be bringing a trusty mechanic with you to check the overall condition of the car ( considering it's a 2 decade vehicle )

    Next thing would be test drive the vehicle then HAGGLE the price lower !





    EDIT : Oh, there's one thing that you should think of.

    The carburetor engine of the corolla. -> Definitely not compatible with e-10. Ask your mechanic on what should you do with this.

    mas ok yung Corolla. mas comfortable gamitin yun. you may also wanna look for Sentra LEC or Mazda 323 LX mas mura yun. i could see some here in manila for about 50K or so. mas madami matitira sa budget mo as headroom for possible repairs and beautification.

onwer type diesel vs toyota corolla '90 vs suzuki muticab
