should i get AVEO or ALTO?

[tidus1203]

cargo space lang ang alam ko na potential problem sa yaris

I doubt it would be any worse than an Alto

As for the Aveo forget it. Its a Chevrolet which means its a GM (Government Motors). Ypu don;t want to own a car associated with Gov't Motors now would you?

How long is your wife driving?

Your kids will grow, your yayas may change, or your wife may not stay slim. Get the idea? Choosing a hatchback will just be a near-term solution. The cramp space will eventually be an issue.

Provide one that offer more versatilility. Paano na kon makikisakay ka o ibang tao. Groceries. Your children's chums. Things you have to squeeze in.

That is why betwen an expensive car, I will choose to have my wife some lessons in driving. Hands-on experience lang yan. P700,000 is a lot of dough. Better to change attitude and act accordingly.

Para sa akin, aralin na lang mag-drive sa Avanza.

My dos centimos.

thanks for the suggestion Sir.

this will be our first car and my wife is not driving frequently as we use my brother's Starex/driver to drive her and kids to and from school and her office.

maybe we get another car or van when the time comes. at this point po kasi nahihiya kami sa brother ko at dun sa driver nila kaya I am looking for a good car for the wife

If budget allows, the Grand Livina would be nice. Of course, subject to your wife's driving skills.

By the way, an MPV/AUV-type vehicle is a good first family car. And the Avanza is the cheapest fairly decent vehicle that I know of.

Good luck. You know best for what you need.

Cheers.

Just get a second hand starex.

natumbok mo Sir

yung Vios po kasi inayawan ni Misis after ng test-drive dahil hirap sya eh.

mas prefer ni misis yung mini-car kaya nasabi nya sa akin yung AVEO at ALTO.

will tell her about the SWIFT (cramp back seat) or Yaris by Toyota.

any other suggestions or comments are all welcome po.

passengers will be:
my wife (5" height and slim)
2 kids (age 5 & 10 yrs old)
2 yayas (teenagers).

Sir di ata kakasya 5 tao sa alto, kumasya man masikip...lalo na mga bata baka mag alboroto mag nasikipan....IMO avanza may laban, di naman siya ganun kalakihan, tsaka sanayan lang yan, for me its better to have one(space) and not need it, than not have it when you need it..

Hi guys, maraming salamat sa mga feedback ha. i have told my wife about YARIS and she said that she will go back to TOYOTA for test drive.

I am glad I've found this website and I am very thankful for all your comments guys! Maraming salamat po.

Sir oliver1013, maraming salamat po sa comment. I definitely agree na masikip nga sa 5 passengers. No choice po kasi ako kasi gusto ni Misis yung kaya niya i-drive. Normally daw 4 passengers lang sila (wife, 2 kids & 1 yaya) kasi naiiwan daw yung 1 yaya sa house. Mali daw ako

My wife also says na if budget permits, try nya din daw tingnan yung Jazz ng Honda. I told her na expensive ang parts ng Honda.

Tanong ko lang po mga Sir... ano po ba ang parts na nagpapamahal sa Honda (Jazz)? I work here in Tokyo so I can easily get any japanese car parts if ever na kailangan ni Misis sa Pinas.

Please advice.

Sir sa brand new, walang problema pag dating sa parts, kasi may 3-year warranty yung unit mo. Kung alaga naman sa regular PMS, no worries kayo, whether Jazz or any other brands.

Regarding naman sa parts if diyan ka bibili, may corkage fee ang casa like kung dala ka ng oil, but for parts I dont know kasi ang alam ko dadaanan muna yan sa QA nila before ikabit.

[tidus1203]

That is not true. Kinda like how Pinoy says that Toyota is reliable, Honda is always associated with expensive parts. That is so 90's... 2009 na tayo! Their parts are all priced roughly the same. Advantage pa nga Honda because they require you to do PMS only every 10,000km whereas Toyota requires you every 5000km....

agree ako sa yo Sir. yan din ang sabi ko kay misis eh. she's just overlooking the future after daw na mag expire na yung warranty for parts/services.

Sir nagising ako sa comment mo. Im glad to hear about that. Kala ko kasi ganyan pa rin ang presyohan ng mga casa dyan sa atin eh.

hehehe if ever siguro... hindi na talaga AVEO or ALTO. this will now be YARIS or JAZZ kasi eto na yung natitirang nagugustuhan ni misis.

eto ngayon mga bossing, YARIS has big discount promo (75K?)....

please advice on the PROs and CONs of YARIS & JAZZ... in A/T

Looking forward to your comments mga bossing.
