Buying a 2nd hand car (Buy and Sell Offers strictly prohibited, FAQ on Page 1)

  • kaya yan umakyat kahit 660cc multicab F6A engine.

    mas malakas na sasakyan dala mo, mas safer umovertake, and hindi ganun kapagod mag drive ng malayo.

    wala pa ako na encounter so far na sana yung lower powered na sasakyan sana dinala niya, except siguro for gas mileage. speaking of that, was asked to drive half of north luzon loop with friends on a new Prado 4.0 gas. ang sarap dalhin and i couldn't even feel na i am running at 120kph na pala. kusa nga lang lumiliko pag nakakakita ng gasolinahan
  • we are planning to change our 2013 Corolla to an MPV. Of course, innova is the choice. Ok pa din kaya kumuha ng matic na 2012-2013 innova? medyo may challenges sa budget.

    should we get a diesel or gas variant considering we'd like it A/T.

    salamat
  • ^ Hell yes if budget permits, kaso mataas pa din resale value talaga ng innova. Konting difference na lang din, older model fortuner / montero na.

    Diesel!
  • Dati automatic diesel pag malaking sasakyan kasi mas mura diesel. E ngayon dikit na yata presyo, tapos considering na mas tahimik ang gas, mukhang mas ok na mag gas.
  • Mas mahal na yata diesel this past few months.

    Doesn't make sense na bumili ng diesel na may premium ng ilang hundred thousands over its gas counterpart.

    Mas mahal na diesel, mas mahal pa maintenance, mas mahap pa SRP. lols wag magpaloko.
  • ^ano exactly ang mahal sa diesel maintenance?

    wala pa ako issue anything outside routine PMS sa fleet namin; like turbos, scv, injectors (both old school and CRDIs), injection pumps etc
  • ^ano exactly ang mahal sa diesel maintenance?

    Just compare PMS costs and frequency ng Innova Gas/Diesel for example.

    Also, assuming na same ang maintenance costs, mas mataas pa din SRP or 2nd hand price ng diesels, so not worth it pa din.
  • Just compare PMS costs and frequency ng Innova Gas/Diesel for example.


    any figures? lagi ko kasi naririnig na mahal yung PMS nang diesels but sa fleet namin hindi. had a Revo with a 7K engine ages ago, iniinsist ng casa na palitan spark plugs every other service kahit visual inspection okay pa.

    sobrang limited ng gasoline powered commercial vehicles, suzuki carry lang on top of my head. with their pricing, payload, and fuel consumption, lugi pa din versus a dmax or hilux
  • MVP naman yung hinahanap, hindi commercial vehicle. lols

    CR-V Diesel 2wd:
    Years KM x 1,000
    Cost (Php)
    6 months 10 8,400
    1 year 20 16,857
    1 ½ years 30 8,400
    2 years 40 16,857
    50,514

    CR-V Gas 2wd:
    Years KM x 1,000
    Cost (Php)
    6 months 10 5,459
    1 year 20 9,195
    1 ½ years 30 5,459
    2 years 40 17,818

    Malaki talaga diff ng diesel vs gas.

  • you generalized na mahal ang diesel maintenance. lols

    Given naman yan kahit dati pa, common knowledge na, sabi mababawi yung premium price ng diesel variants dahil mas mura ang diesel. lols

  • sa hyundai casa kita ko mas mahal pms ng accent diesel compared sa accent gas.
  • noong may 2 cars pa ako, mas magastos change oil ko sa diesel kesa sa gas ko na sasakyan kasi mas madami langis kailangan ng diesel. naka 1 overhaul and 1 change engine din ako. i think dahil mas madumi diesel kesa gas (?). mga old school cars ito, ewan ko na lang sa mga bago ngayon. but regardless, back then, it was still worth keeping the diesel car dahil mura talaga diesel noon kesa gas so mas matipid din pang araw araw.
  • guys yung mga slope na wet soil/clay kaya ba ng 4x2 Sedan with offroad tires or kelangan naka 4x4 or AWD? nastuck lang kasi ako sa ganun
  • 4WD or AWD syempre, pero it can still get stuck kung maling tires gamit.
  • noted on that. akala ko kakayanin pag naka offroad tires. power parin pala talaga. oras na para maghanap ng bago
  • noted on that. akala ko kakayanin pag naka offroad tires. power parin pala talaga. oras na para maghanap ng bago

    You also have to research pa din kapag may shortlist ka na, kase some 4x4/AWD systems are better than the others.

    Specially if extreme or laging offroad hehe.

  • guys, question lang re document when buying 2nd hand vehicle

    1. what documents the seller will ask from the buyer?
    2. what documents should the buyer ask from the seller?
    3. recommended ba ang open deed of sale?

    tnx
  • ^ 1. Payment, copy of valid ID
    2. Or/cr DOS, copy of valid ID
    3. No
  • 2013-2015 mirage hatch or g4?

    yan lang kaya ng budget

    same prices halos yang hatch at sedan type
  • ^
    on pure aesthetic side, sa hatch ako
    for me, parang hindi bagay na ganun kaliit tapos sedan

    anyway, same yung feeling ko sa malilit na sasakyan, not just for Mirage
    Brio, Swift, Fiesta, Mazda 2.. hindi ko trip mga sedan versions nila
  • @synchr0n1z3r82
    I'd recommend the hatchback din. Dahil napaka versatile nung sa likod. Pag wala ka passenger, pwedeng malaking gamit masakay mo dun. Highly useful kung tipong tag lipat kayo ng gamit. Or bibili ka ng mga malalaking appliance (na pwedeng ihiga)

    Though kung more often than not may pasahero ka sa likod, go for the G4. Para kahit mag-grocery ka, may masasakay ka parin na passenger sa likod.

    Previous owner kasi ako ng G4, at na-amaze ako nung nakapag sakay ng TV-Rack yung hipag ko dun sa Hatch niya.

  • maraming salamat sa inputs nyo. hindi pa din kami nakakakuha ng MPV.

    regardless of the maintenance, may nabanggit yung friend ko na mas ok ang power ng diesel, so he recommends diesel pa din considering yung laki ng sasakyan at load nito pag punuan.

    again, thank you ulit.
  • Yung car namin 2018 pa fully paid and released ng casa yung documents pero hindi ko pa nattransfer sa name ko yung ownership. Pwede ba yung next owner na lang pagtransferin ko sa name nya? Plan ko na kasi i-benta para hindi magdoble doble trabaho.

    Also may issue ba kapag hindi ko pa nattransfer under my name yung car but I have all the documents from the casa already.
  • pwede. nakabili na ako dati ng 2nd hand na encumbered pa nakalagay sa CR tapos ako na nagpatransfer sa pangalan ko.
  • May tinitingnan ako unit,
    2012 Vios 1.3 G A/T way below market value kasi.

    Ano specific sa vios na usually needed checking? Order na ko ng lahat ng fluids and filters, may order na din evaporator since hindi daw gaano malamig.

    May tinitingnan ako unit,
    2012 Vios 1.3 G A/T way below market value kasi.

    Ano specific sa vios na usually needed checking? Order na ko ng lahat ng fluids and filters, may order na din evaporator since hindi daw gaano malamig.

    eto yung batman tama? pinaka common sa halos lahat ng lumang toyota is thermostat. sobrang daming mekaniko yung tinatanggal lang yan at hindi nirereplace.

    about sa AC, sure bang evap ang issue? parang mejo bihira ko kasi mabalitaan na nagccrack evap ng vios, madalas is baradong drier.
  • ^ salamat sa heads up, isama ko na rin as preventive ang thermostat. tsaka yung aluminum filler neck, plastic kasi sa batman mukhang mas matibay yung mga replacement aluminum.

    Not sure pa na evap, pero mura lang kasi evaporator. isama ko na din drier at expansion valve para preventive.

    Matagal kasi hindi nagamit, for sure may freon leak somewhere. Hindi pa nakukuha unit
  • Thoughts on a repo 2020 Innova with an almost 67k mileage?
  • ^ mataas ang mileage for a 2 year old car. Baka rent a car dati yan.

    As is ata ang mga repo car. Yung iba hindi pinapayagan na itest drive. Yung iba kinakahoy pa yung ibang pyesa at pinapalitan before mahatak.

    For sure mas madami pang Innova ang fresh compared dyan. Better kung makakabili ka sa mga owner mismo ng unit para alam ang history ng sasakyan.
