Swapping my Vios 2010 1.3E for 2006 Civic FD 1.8S

**zel.chikot** · November 29th, 2016 11:43 AM

Guys need your help! Is this a good deal? I'll be adding 50k cash for the swap.

Vios 2010 1.3E
-150k mileage
-some minor issues like

Civic 2006 1.8S
-68k mileage
-sobrang kinis
-zero kalampag
-all stock as in lahat halos walang ginalaw

Assuming na macheck namin yun civic at in a very good condition talaga to. Good deal na po ba ito?

TIA sa inputs mga tsikoteers!

you are giving away your vios + 50K, in exchange for the civic?
looks good, assuming everything is as stated.

Yes sir assuming na in very good condition talaga yun fd like what it looks sa pictures, sa mileage and sa description ni seller. Btw mag dadala din naman ako ng marunong tumingin. Is it as easy, or a bit comparable, to maintain an FD as it was on a vios? Kasi as we all know sobrang dali magmaintain ng vios given the abundance of parts at nagkalat kahit saang auto shop.

Btw thanks sir sa reply!

Just triple check the FD. Confirm service records (to ascertain mileage) and ensure the vehicle is not flooded.

Per olx, A 2010 1.3E Vios would have a sale value of around 250K-300K while the FD is also around 300-350K.

Per experience, the Vios takes abuse better then the FD. On a 2010 model Civic I maintained, it had the PS hose break down at 40,000kms, and the engine mounts, drive belt bearings and wheel bearings needed replacement at 65K kms. It's not that expensive to replace though so okay lang. Just annoying. Our 2007 Vios on the other hand has 135,000kms on the odo and so far i've only replaced shocks and the wheel bearings (and this unit took a swim in Ondoy).

But of course, in terms of driving experience, the FD is much more engaging.

Oh wow! I've had ZERO repairs on my 2010 Altis since I bought it. Just the regular PMS. It still runs like new (except for the kalampag when I changed all the tires)

Another reason to love Toyota

Tama sir. Sa vios ko pinakamahal ko palang napalitan is clutch assembly at yun underchassis parts like tie-rod, stab link, brakes, repack ng CV joint, gear oil. Di pa nga ako nakakapagpalit ng shocks at shock mounts pero to follow na sana. Wala din naman sa plano ibenta yun vios pero rare opportunity para sakin ito kasi I wanted an FD before pero napunta kami sa vios way back 2010. Ngayon nakachamba ng low mileage(assuming hindi tampered, gotta check the condition ng car compared sa mileage pag navisit na namin) kaya gusto ko sana iswap yun vios kasi mataas na yun mileage nya.

I second that.

Agree ako dito sir. In 6 years ng vios sakin, walang naging major problem. Parang tangke ika nga. Everyday workhorse tapos no major issues so far. Currently at 150k odo.

Market value of the 2010 Vios E = 350,000
Market value of the 2006 FD = 350,000

ok na yung deal considering swap. ang tanong ko lang is bakit gusto mag maliit na sasakyan nung may-ari ng Civic? and siguraduhin mo na walang problema yung oto. check for leaks, transmission, suspension, etc.

Sir bale +50k po ako. I decided to throw in this amount dahil sobrang kinis nung unit at low mileage po yun fd. Yun vios ko naman may issues like high mileage, na wash over na din, may konti pang kalampag (for replacement shocks and shock mounts I think)

Good deal na po ba ito if ever? Thanks sa reply sir
