nope... for me i won't buy a a vehicle that's damaged by flooding... yun nga na second hand cars na di nabaha merong masasakit sa ulo eh.... yun pa kayang binaha... sabi nga ng mechanic namin.... magagawa ang nabaha na car kung sa magagawa pero eventually may lalabas at lalabas na problema which would cost you more...

Bayan seller ata siya kasi sabi nya sa casa nya mismo nakuha yung unit, ayaw pa ng daw ibigay ng casa dahil flooring lang ang nabaha. Hindi naman daw nagiging problema since linis lang ang kailangan. 400+ lang mileage nya fyi. [emoji4]

My stance, if flooded, no. You never know what problems will pop up. And if cant afford tinkering and spending a lot of time with the car being checked or repair down the line, i would say to find another alternative instead.

As for the seller claiming wala pa nagbalik or nagreklamo sa kanya, technically, he is most likely lying and its part of the pitch.

Kung nung time na nabenta namin hiace namin dti na napalitan na clutch master, may resibo pa turned over sa buyer, within a few months bumigay sa kanila tinawag pa sa amin.

Electrical issues isa sa masakit ayusin.Sa flood, sunud yung mga sulok sulok na hindi nalinis ng maayos. Baka may growth ng mold overtime or simula ng kalawang. Tapos yung mas huli mo pa malalaman, failure ng mechanical parts like bearings and what not.
