Dear All,

I'm looking for a compact and am aware that this may have been asked countless times before. I have read many reviews about each car but I am not completely satisfied with the reviews as they only have the car for a short time and peculiarities in each model may not have been published. Long term ownership is also not addressed. Given the four cars in the title,

1. Which car has the best balance between ride comfort and handling?

2. From your ownership experience, at about what time do you start hearing rattles and creaks from your car (I've read many complaints about the Ford Focus' suspension at fordclub philippines)? Our revo and vios doesn't have any even after more than 5 years of use.

3. We've had a Toyota Revo VX200 and a 2006 Vios 1.5G and the ownership is painless. Only the front shocks of the revo has been replaced so far apart from the regular PMS. Which car among the bunch do you think would provide the same experience? Which is most durable?

Thanks,

Neil
