Meron din mga GL Grandia na colorum hahaha. Kulay black pa
Ang nakikita ko lang na pwede:
Isuzu Crosswind
Mitsubishi Adventure
Nissan Urvan
Mitsubishi L300 FB Dual A/C or Versa Van
Wag ka kukuha ng Hiace kasi CRDi ang engine nun. Toyota pa. Sasakit lang ulo mo kasi laspagan ang gamit diyan.

Pards, sigurado ka ba sa lahat ng pinagsasasabi mo?
Lalo na sa mas malakas humatak than HiAce D-4D?
Tsaka sa crash test ratings, pare-pareho lang yan flat nose van, pag nabangga ka ng malakas, crumple zone ang legs ng driver! At siguradong baldado ang driver. hahaha

sir ang mb tubular ang frame... its like the t3... if sisilipin mo ilalim ng mb makikita mo may malaking tubo sa harap hanggang likod and its not like the other vans... na ang engine nasa ilalim ng upuan... ang engine ng mb eh nasa harap sa may area ng dashboard thats why the mb's dashboard is unnaturally big... yung crash test sir actually real car to car crash accident yung pinagbasihan ng australian govt...
pag dating sa hatak mas malakas ang d4d sa hatakan... ang ibig sabihin ko po eh mas matipid cya sa urvan... pero mas malakas ang fc nya sa d4d.... pero pag dating sa rekta ewan ko lang kung ano ang mas matulin... matulin din kasi talaga sa rektahan ang mb van... lalo na yung highspeed nya at 5 cylinder po yun na 2.9... engine is the same as the mb300D 5 cylinder model.. also a rebadge catterpillar engine... may crash test yun sa youtube ssyanyong istana... a rebadge mb100 van.. doing 44kph....

Uhm... I remember the MB100 screaming it's engine to the high heavens. Red line, 5th gear at 135kph.
It was a good van design in terms of space maximization and comfort (still one of the best for me) but reliability is very iffy after a while. Parts were affordable and we maintained ours well enough but after three years, it would always have a problem or repair needed after any long trip up north.

sir how old is your mbvan at that time? is it the local version? marami kasing misconception talaga dun sa van na yun... marami din pagkakamali ang mga gumagawa kaya after awhile pag pinagawa mo may nasira pala yung gumawa or mali ang pagkakagawa kaya na sisira ulit... or nagpapalit ng mga japan na parts like bearing, etc.... hindi talaga tumatagal ang mga japan parts sa mb...
pag dating naman sa 135kph.. talagang maugong ang engine... 5 CYLINDER EH.. BAKA malamang sir sliding clutch ka na kung ganun... check mo youtube meron dun 155kph near redline.... i think its a little over 4.3 rpm...

We bought it in 1996, brand new from CATS (it was also serviced there) and sold it in 2002 (replaced with a 3.0 Hiace Grandia, which we then replaced with another Hiace Grandia GL in 2008). It had around 90,000kms by the time we sold it. It was regularly driven on the highway since day one so definitely that's really the speed range it can attain (even the MB brochure listed its top speed at that).
The number of cylinders has nothing to do with the engine sound; in fact vehicles with more cylinders generally run smoother. Its really the design insulation, vibration control and the engine is just really loud. :D Stuffing the gearshifter with cotton and rag did reduce the noise.
But going back to the topic of the TS, i still maintain that its best to get a new or the newest possible vehicle to minimize repairs needed. My officemate before has several GT service vehicles and once the van/AUV ages, more and more income is lost to repairs and service, and the vehicle downtime that accompanies it.

November 29th, 2011 05:35 PM #30I see. For GT Express, I do not recommend AUVs like Crosswinds, Revos or Adventures that much since they have limited seating capacity and their fuel consumption is similar to that of bigger vans since they have the same sort of engines. Naku~ medyo mahirap makahanap ng matinong sasakyan for that budget... Hindi na talaga maaring maistretch yan? You'll probably need at least 300k and above to get a good vehicle. And since pang araw araw na harabas yan, hindi talaga pwedeng ititipid yan. So far you are right... Hyundai Grace lang ata ang kumakasya sa budget mo. Pero karamihan mga early to mid 90s na Korea surplus din ang mga to kaya ingat ingat lang baka makakuha ng laspag na unit. Subukan mo rin maghanap ng Kia Pregio 2.7L engine yan and its basically the van version of the Kia K2700. Makakakuha ka ng mas bagong unit as compared to the Hyundai Grace at baka in better condition rin. I find this van a lot more modern at comfortable din ang ride niya. My late great grandmother liked Pregios a lot. Yung anak niya (kapatid ng lola ko) always had a Pregio at my great grandmother's disposal. So far they have bought three Pregios in all, pinapalitan agad once it gets a bit old. One in '96, another in '99 and the last one in '02. Noong 2002, sinubukan nilang palitan ng Hiace Super Grandia (yung lumang model) and my great grandmother complained na ang tagtag daw sobra as compared to the Pregio. Kakatuwa nga eh, napakaikli ng stay ng Hiace diyan. Yung plaka nun XCJ-xxx tapos yung plaka ng Pregio that replaced it XDS-xxx
Ito mga Pregio, tingnan mo: Buy and sell online in NCR: Kia Pregio - Ayosdito.ph
Maraming Salamat :)
