    Hi,

    The advie`s style/looks is soo soo old. It's looks are so out-dated, seriously.
    It just serves as a people hauler, though the looks are old, from what I`ve heard it's durable, 2nd to the crosswind of course

    Let me ask, what is your budget, maybe you could stretch up to get an Innova J ( newer and better ) but the only downside is it has no power features, but, you can add it sometime else.

    based on the 720k price you mentioned, here are some of the possible alternatives:
    1) Avanza 1.5G MT
    2) Innova J
    3) Crosswind XL

    i think thats about it. hehe

    The only downside i can think of the Adventure is that its styling is quite antiquated already. Hehe

    But the 4D56 engine is durable.

    I really don't know much about the Adventure, pero phobia ako in anything na Mitsubishi, the last 2 Mitsus we had are a headache (94' L300 Van Diesel and '95 Lancer GLXI). On the other hand, I'm very happy with our Isuzu Crosswind XL.

    Old but durable ---its now the Adventure's call name.

    As an AUV, it has it merits. At least it realistically priced than the current Crosswinds.

    Personally, if my needs can be served by an Avanza and it has to be a diesel then I will gravitate to the Adventure.

    At just over 70 hp with no turbo, it can be slow. But maintenance is relatively cheap.

    Hi again, just had a chat with my friends, buying a new adventure would roughly cut me 250T more.. they suggested that I keep my 2003 revo GL variant, and use that 250T in fixing and beautifying it…such as getting new mags, new tint, making it power side mirror, replaced old parts (shocks and bushings), new stereo.. etc…

    Is this a better option?

    Well if you want to keep your revo, then thats another good option, but if I were you, I`d sell the revo, buy a new car instead, less worries and much much more stylish. Do you really need a van? Because if not, a sedan will be just right for you.

    We won’t fit in a sedan.. hehehe

    I got 2 kids now, plus a twin is on their way this year, plus yayas.. On weekend, my dad and sister rides with me din. the Revo is quite small for us during weekends.. but it's ok na rin.

BNEW Adventure or ????
