ok lang din lang kumuha ng mga second hand and repossessed cars from the bank.

first consideration naman talaga in getting a car is your budget eh. just make sure that you have some left for maintenance/repairs.

my experience in getting repossessed cars from banks is that yung mga oto dun, may mga kailangan ng ipagawa dahil ang tendency ng previous owners is laspagin and hindi na ipagawa yung mga oto dahil alam nila na rerematahin na.

iloloan mo ba from the bank o you will pay in cash? kasi kung cash, i would suggest that you look in used car dealerships or buy from the owners themselves. mas ok ang condition ng oto compared to the bank.

for a 150k range, you can get a lancer itlog, a corolla big body, a late 90s model ng nissan sentra, and yes, even a better conditioned mazda familia.

imho.

same pala tayo ng budget at same din tayo naghahanap ng 2nd hand car..

im in the same situation.. i just need a car that runs.. based sa research ko at sa mga napag tanungan kong taxi driver, madalas suggestion nila sa akin corolla.. (kahit driver na naka mazda na taxi).. mura daw parts..

actualy gusto ko nga sana kia pride..since sabi ko ako lang ang sasakay..pero di rin nila suggest kase sobrang hina daw ng aircon ng kia.. tapos di kaya magsakay ng madami..

if you want sabay na tayo maghanap.. hehehe.. for a budget of 150k .. makakabili na tayo nyan ng corolla xl 1997.. medyo bago bago pa..

ganun din situation ko mga 2 months before 130t to 150t... Ang first choice is Toyota Corola Xe or XL na Big Body... I find the Corolla Small body over price kasi considering its age na rin...
2nd choice ko is Lancer EL na before Pizza... Although you have to consider sa Lancer yung noicy suspension....
3rd choice ko yung Corona 92 st171 although 2.0 nga lang but built and perpormance maganda(May Konting Luxury ba)
4th choice ko Kia CD-5 eto naman matipid pati sa Change oil matipid pati piyesa matipid din. Hwag ka lang mareklamo. Plus may sukli ka pa. pang Gatas din yan(as per m brother with my 2 cute pamangkins)
5th Mazda 323 box type same reason for Kia pero may konting dating.

I ended up buying 97 Isuzu hilander coz my mom lend me an additional 50T. Bakit Hilander? Diesel siya and I get 12Km per Litter. Madami masasakay ko. Proven na kasi ng brother ko ang isuzu engine na eto(kasi meron siya Pick up naman)

Btw kung Budget mo is 150T ang car na dapat mo kunin is between 130T to 140T max kasi may repair pa yun kahit minor.

**chris_mazda** · April 19th, 2007 03:06 PM

thanks guys, actually 120T lang pala budget ko, kasi i'm reserving the 3oT for repairs, may lam ba kayo magandang car dealers na nagbebenta ng used cars taz maayos pa makina? thanks ulit!

hintay lng ng magandang offer bro. wag magmadali. kakakuha ko lng din ng 94 toyota corolla gli na automatic kninang umaga para kay wifey. 130k

madumi lng interior pero hindi laspag. alang rattles at buong buo pa dashboard, ala butas matting, ganda pa ng trunk. may konting scratches lng paint. at kalampag. nag allot na ako ng 20k para sa full detail kay big berts, paayos suspension kay cruven/zee, change oil/atf/all fluids at tuneup kay suking gas station

kung sa iba un malamang nasa 160k+ pa nila benta un
