Suggestions for 800k budget

[bjreyesmd]

I need your opinion guys. Im planning to replace my '02 CRV. My budget is 800k and looking into the pre-owned market. Three cars have caught my attention- a 2013 kia carens, 2012-13 innova V and 2011-12 sorento.
The car would primarily be a strike anywhere car that can carry me and the wifey plus 2 kids and 2 yayas. It would be used for the kids transportation, mall visits and occasional out of town trips. Sometimes it will be used also as a coding car for me and my wife. Of course it has to be fuel efficient and a little refined.
Im also open to other suggestions. TIA.

Suzuki ertiga sir. Fuel efficient & spacious.

innova..... you can get a newer one at that budget.

^ agree above. If i may add, i'll cross out innova V kung mas mahal sya sa G. Unnecessary add ons ng V.

Is the ertiga really spacious? Hmm, have to check the dealerships. I initially crossed out brand new compact MPVs as I found them too small.

Checked out the listings, halos wala na difference in price sa V and G in the pre-owned market. Also, mas gusto ko pala yung looks nung older innova kesa dun sa latest na may malaking grill kaya na-cross out ko rin brand new innova.

The Innova V will also limit your use of the rear luggage area since the middle row captains chairs will only seat two. Pag may yaya kayo kasama, automatic gagamitin na yung rear seats.

My vote goes to the Sorento if you can find one with the 3rd row seats. Good power, efficiency and the crash ratings are better than the Innova definitely.

An MS, Everest, and Fortuner also fits into the 800K range AFAIK. Pero the Sorento and Innova will be less takaw-nakaw if you want something that is low key.

At the end, go look at all those choices and go with the one in the best condition and being sold by a first owner.

EDIT: Pero mas bagay sa yo yung VW Touran kung MPV. Dagdagan mo ng P1M yung budget mo. hehehe. We were loaned a test unit for one weekend a few weeks ago and although it is pricey for an MPV, it's solid and a good family hauler that doesn't catch too much attention.

I agree with vinj, those suv are good choice.. but you can think of adventure or other auv also, in your budget definitely can get brand new.. cheers

+1 ako vote ko innova

Para ka pang si Pope Francis. :pope:

Grabe pala choices sa 2nd hand market ng ganitong budget. Jackpot lalu na sa mga brand at model na may low resale value.

Come to think of it, was looking at the Touran and Tiguan a few weeks ago. I told myself, this would be for the wifey once she changes her current ride, hehe. At this time though, its way over budget for a strike anywhere car, hehe.

Anyway, how about a 2009 Previa? Fuel consumption may be a pain though.

I like the simplicity and solid feel of the VWs we test drove over several weekends (Touran, Beetle and Tiguan). The Touran doesnt have much height as compared to an Innova but slap on nice rims and it's good.

For the Previa, if you can find one in good condition (first owned, relatively low mileage), why not? FC should be 5-6km/L in the city AFAIK. Parts might not be as easily available though, save for the engine which shares the same block as a Camry 2.4L. If you get one, it's a 6 year old vehicle so you may have to do some general repairs and service to ensure reliability. Practicality will still go to the Innova or an MS/Fort/Everest.

May zero downpayment, 0% interest for 3 years ang volks ngayon. Tapos pag cash naman, malaki discount. Haha

You won't go wrong with the Everest kung strike anywhere vehicle hanap mo doki. Been using mine almost 6 years na, wala pa pinalitan na major. Wifey loves driving it, kapag byahe sa province, loaded talaga (3kids + 2 yayas).
You can get a very nice model for your budget. If you will go for a Fortuner, meron tayo kilala na fellow doki na balak magbenta dito sa Las Pinas area.

It seems I can get 2013-2014 models of the Everest at my set budget. This is quite tempting although Im a bit apprehensive about its drivability since I understand it has a longer turning radius since it has a longer wheelbase? Also, how about ride comfort, in comparison lets say to the Innova, MS or Fort? Thanks for the inputs guys, very much appreciated.

Not so sure if you can get 2013-2014 model for 800k budget.... if meron then better check and double check kasi baka meron isuue yun kaya ganon kababa sale value.

Actually turning radius is shorter in comparison sa Monti (+1 ang Montero on this) kaya kapag hindi mo pa kabisado yung vehicle for sure ilang maniobra ka muna bago makaliko

Ride comfort: mas masarap sumakay sa Innova but mas less tagtag if compared sa Fortuner ang Everest.

If you want car like ride then go with Montero, Sorento, Sportage. Try to feel the ride first then decide kung matagtag ba talaga kasi depende sa tao yan eh.

check carmudi ph.

kung comfort Innova -> MS -> Everest -> Fort. mas komportable ang Eve kesa Fort. Sa Eve ang may pinakamagandang leg room.
