Current cars:

-rear drum brakes(brake shoes need to be replaced and I haven't had the time)
-clutch is starting to slip

- Has a problem with the brakes or vacuum lines, not sure which...
Honda Accord 1995
- Soft body, easily dented, there are about 5 dents in the front right and another 5 dents on the front left fender, dahil sa mga sumandal dati. 3 dings on the rear left passenger door.
- Paint chipping off from the front bumper and paint bubbling on the rear bumper.
2004 Mitsubishi Adventure GLS Sport
- Engine is reliable, but could use more horses.
- I find the stock tires a bit puny (like I could afford bigger ones right now)
- There's a slight rattling sound somewhere, can't tell if it's from the muffler or the stepboard mounts. It doesn't impair the vehicle's operation, but it does somewhat affect my performance behind the wheel.
- No seatbelts/lapbelts for the third row seats.
- They could have placed the fuel tank a little closer to the center of the chassis.
- Cranky parking sensors.
- It's basically an oversized hatchback, but I still love it to bits.![]()

-"melting" steering wheel
-matagtag
-power locks na di gumagana minsan
-rust sa rear wheel wells

- crappy 9 year-old paint
- ugong sound when you turn the steering wheel (PS replacement hose na

- medyo problematic ngayon ang A/T. Di na automatic ang shifting, para
tuloy akong manual tranny, without the clutch
Pero what I like most about both cars is the driver! hehehe![]()
