Toyota Altis 1.6 2001 model with 300k mileage, good deal for php150k?

[OneHitWonder7]

Newbie here, just looking for some help regarding this. My dad's company car will be up for sale soon as the company is planning to give them new ones. It's a Toyota Altis 1.6 2001 model, it's well maintained and still runs smoothly. My dad tells me the company will most likely sell it for php150k. I'm considering it cos of the cheap price but I'm reluctant cos it already has a mileage of around 300k. What do you guys think? is this a good buy?

+1. If you know how it was maintained and who used it, and can confirm all pms are done, thats a good deal... actually bala lower than 150 pa nga yan eh

From my observation sa mga naging company owned cars namin, I'll not buy kahit pa Sabihin na well maintained and casa maintained..Not only a very high mileage car but Hindi pa kasama dyan yun actual engine running hours. Yun mga naging driver namin walng patayan ang engine kapag nakatambay ginagawang sleeping couch ang car. Tsk... But if you personally saw the car how it was used then oks..but still too high mileage na.

I agree with Jiggs. Mataas masyado mileage kahit mura pa yan. Kung sana Dad mo lang ang gumagamit ng car.pwede pa. Pero kung iba ibang tao hindi mo alam style ng driving nila. Plus at 300k some parts will eventually break down from wear and tear. I have a 96 corolla pero 180k lang ang mileage.

the mileage is a wow for me. pero in my own opinion, parang hindi na rin worth it e. sa katagalan mas marami nang parts ang mag bre-breakdown at kailangang palitan. mas magastos na rin siguro.

buti sana kung ung 300k na odo sa dad mo lang galing at sya lang gumagamit.

Agree!

If d car was driven "exclusively" by your dad then its worth considering pa cguro. Otherwise, let the buy & sell peeps handle that transaction na lang and have it bought by people who just want to have the experience of having their 1st car notwithstanding the odo reading.

in my opinion that's too much 300k mileage. imagine yung wear and tear ng upuan, manubela, and every part of that car. if 100k pesos ok pwede kukunin ko. para yung matipid ko pangpagawa.

I won't buy a vehicle with 300KKm mileage, unless kayo ang gumamit niyan at alam ninyo ang mga naging problema,- current condition.

Else,- kayo lang ang sasalo ng magiging problema niyan.
