Pa help po looking to buy 2nd hand car, choosing between altis or fd budget 300 to 350

[JayBo]

Just my opinion ha... pero ingat sa mga Ondoy units. Between the choices, the Civic FD is a good option (performance, looks, space, etc.)

Engine Performance - Focus TDCi (lots of torque at low rpm, decent grip & handling), Civic FD 1.8S (more power and torque compared to 1.6L NA gas engines)
Fc - Focus TDCi (diesel is frugal), City 1.5E (very fuel efficient gas engine)
Interior - Civic FD
Exterior - Civic FD
Possible headaches - Focus TDCi (DCT and turbo issue for units not properly maintained), Cruze (parts availability due to less number of units sold)
Features - this is more a matter of preference. some people like too many widgets, some like cars with a spartan design.

Thankyou sir. If i may add 2007 tucson crdi ok din poba sya?

If price is OK and the Tucson is in good shape, I guess it will be fine. Just make sure the turbo is working properly. A broken turbo on a diesel engine is costly to replace.

mga sir add ko lang sa mga choices ko, kung ma stretch ko budget.. ok din ba yung hyundai santa fe 2nd hand? in terms of maintenance anu mas mabigat montero or santa fe? anu po pinagkaiba nila alin ang mas tatagal? Thank you ulit mga tol pasensya na ala kasi ako masyado alam..

if you can stretch your budget some more, and you don't mind the ugly duckling, and it's ok to be a little bigger, go for a diesel innova. even the basic J. if the owner took reasonable care, you will probably spend only for cosmetics.

i'm just wondering, kumusta pala ang spare parts situation ng earlier gen mazda 3 ( the one preceding its latest iteration)?

Madami na daw parts. Yung mekaniko ng father in law ko nag quote ng top overhaul for 12k all in. Madami ba daw sya nakukuhaan pyesa

Hi mga ka tsikot. Plano po namin bumili ng 2nd hand car next year Jan or Feb and budget po namin is 300 to 350k. Ikakasal po kami this december ni gf and plano sana namin mag brand new pero naisip po namin na d pa kaya maipit for 5 years. Meron po ako dating altis 2004 model 2 years ago binenta ko kasi nagtayo ako ng business. Sa bahay lang po ako nagtatrabaho at si gf ko naman sa office so main gamit ng sasakyan is panghatid or sundo kay misis and once na marunong na sya mag drive papagamit ko nalang sa kanya. Magagamit din ang sasakyan pag weekends with parents kung ipapasyal sila. Anu po kaya ang mas matipid sa gas? and long term maintenance? Plano ko po kasi ikeep sya long term.

Choices ko po ay autimatic
1. Altis 2008-2010
2. Civic FD 2008-2009
3. Mirage G4 2014 ( kung meron para mas bagong year and mas magtatagal?)
4. Accent ( wala ako masyado alam sa maintenance and info
5. Montero 2009 ( kung bebenta nung kakilala kong doctor for 400k nabanggit kasi samen, hindi ba masakit sa bulsa ang maintenance? or gaaano kalayo ang difference ng presyo sa maintenance ng kotse? )

Kung meron pa po kayo ma add sa mga choices ko mas ok po. Thank you in advance

toyota all the way most second hand cars puro maintain mainttain, sa toyota madali makahanap parts etc. i prefer altis for your choices.

1, 2, or 3, have good reputation.
4, convince me.
5, welcome to the diesel! and as is reputed of bigger diesels, more robust build quality. they last longer and offer cheaper fuel expenses (hopefully! but check out the mirage. good fuel economy daw.), but they are probably more expensive, should they need repair.

hi sir - what are the major cons of accent?

"it's korean."

ask others, po. i am confident others will dis-agree with my opinion.
