Seeking for your kind opinions/details/rationale on which 2nd hand car is wise to buy for daily use & for long distance travel.

January 16th, 2016 12:52 PM #2well, the toyota is the default ("bukang bibig", no-brainer, etc.) (used) car brand... and, in this instance, it's also newer.
i suppose it's also more expensive, because of the above.
condition of the used car is also a major factor to consider.
so what will i get? all things being equal, altis.
more popular.. more parts.. cheaper parts..Last edited by dr. d; January 16th, 2016 at 12:56 PM.

January 16th, 2016 10:37 PM #3Have 07 altis. Pero AT ung akin. Very satisfied. One thing you have to be cautious with, ung AC. Lalo na kung denso ang oem. Not only marami ng naka experience ng issues, napaka hirap ipagawa kasi pag denso baklas dashboard.
Pero pag napa ayos or in good condition, napaka lamig. Daming pumupuri sa ac ko kahit na mas bago auto nila. Giniginaw daw sila sa lamig minimum setting pa.

Altis 04-07 definitely. Better insulation and safety features. It's one generation newer. A 99-00 VTEC is still the EK body; although it's light and easy to maintain too, you're looking at car that's nearly two decades old in design.

IIRC they're with AVID. The reported numbers in the TG article are from CAMPI.
