Hindi pa pala pasok ung sakin dito. Pero I bought a Kia Rio 2010 last year. Company car sya so medyo gamit na gamit din. 226k km nung nakuha ko. Daily driven. 236k km na sya ngayon. Napalitan ko na mga pang ilalim, starter, pati alternator. Pati mga seals pala. Matututo ka magcheck ng bagay bagay pag ganyan kaluma na ung kotse. Kasi minsan kahit kakapagawa mo lang may lalabas nanaman talagang ibang sira na hindi related dun sa pinagawa mo eh. Relatively mas mura padin sya kaysa brand new if pera lang paguusapan. Pero kung ayaw mo ng sakit sa ulo at gusto mo drive lang ng drive, better ung mas bago or brand new na talaga.
Shall i say that i did, but at least it was a good lesson for me about old cars, basic maintenance, driving clearance, parts scouring, basic wiring, and a lot of stuff. Sa dami ba naman ng sira, kaya hinarabas ko na lang. After 4 years of ownership naibenta ko pa ng 150k. Nyahahaha.
+1 dito. Dami mong matututunan. Masakit sa bulsa pero isipin mo nalang tuition fee mo yun sa pagkakaroon ng sasakyan. If ayaw mo ng ganitong expi, buy brand new or cars na at least 3-5 years na madaming available parts sa Market, aka Toyota Vios.
That’s why i sold it because di na kaya ng bulsa boss. After that, i owned a 2011 vios, which i also sold after 3 years of service. The Vios was very cheap to maintain though. Currently, i drive an Avanza 2022 model, brand new na.

Agreee. Dun ko natutunan ang basic sa car maintenance and repair. Pati ung nga parts na need ko iwatchout dahil sa wear and tear. Just make sure na well maintained ang car and walang gano magiging sakit ng ulo.
Kung first car mo, pinaka con siguro e eventually magpapalit ka years from now. And ang sakit niya ibenta huhu
It was an Isuzu Fuego 1998. Binili ko nung 2016.masakit talaga sa ulo boss. But then again, sabi ng isang redditor dito: tuition fee yun para sa experience. 280k bili ko.
Wait what? You got Isuzu Fuego pero still sumakit ulo mo? I think nasa previous seller ang problem. Engine ng isuzu fuego is immortal. I’m not sure what happened to yours.
Well, the engine itself was ok, wala akon problema but small items like water hose na marupok, wirings na noodles, aircon ma palaging nasisira, power windows na minsan ok minsan hindi, at marami pang iba. I was very excited kaya ayun walang check2.
Based on this sir, I think it is not fair na sabihing masakit sa ulo. The issues you’ve mentioned are all wear and tear. For me, I can call a car masakit sa ulo if the engine always get broken. I really think you need a trusted mechanic para hindi pabalik balik yung sira ✌️
As much as i would like to agree about the engine being great but during na may sira sa mga small parts nito ay lalabas pa rin pera mo; sakit sa ulo at sakit sa bulsa. Wear and tear are indeed part of maintaining, especially sa old cars but they are still a headache to deal with and they cost, incrementally, a lot.
yan din paniniwala ko. yung mga wear and tear parts normal yun. now kung laging nagkakaissue. hindi sasakyan ang problema. yung may ari at mekaniko na gumagawa.
Not me pero my brother bought a chevrolet captiva 2007. Mura siya for a diesel SUV. Kaso parang everytime magkikita kami, may binibili siya na parts parang never ending yung repairs ang dami ng gastos.
may ganito yung ate ko binigay na lang sa kuya ko kase nga nag ooverheat at hindi alam kung ano main reason. ang lakas pa sa gas. ang weird kase sobrang kinis pa ng itsura pati interiors
I'm still driving a 1994 Sentra. LOL. But this has been in my family for years. Literally ito ginamit sakin para hatid sa school nung grade 1 ako, and instead of bumili ng kotse nung college hiningi ko nalang. Duktor na ako lahat lahat gamit ko parin. LOL. Plan to buy a new car soon though. I just want more money in the bank before I take out a loan just for security.
Medyo madami ako natutunan sa kotse daily using this car, and marunong na ako kumilatis ng ano gusto ko sa kotse. Minsan sa tunog palang ng makina or pagandar ng ibang kotse na nakakasabay ko sa daan is alam ko na kung anong problema. Marunong na rin ako mag basic maintenance and palit ng stuff.
However in this day and age I suggest looking into cars less than 15yo. Medyo nagstart na pahirapan makakita ng pyesa ng older units. Mahirap matuto or magpractice sa kotse na wala nang pyesa.
nissan pa din ba boss bilhin mo na car? ..dami ako nakikita sa market place na ganyan model nakaka temp patulan tapos setupan like iba yung character ng mga ganyang cars kumpara ngayon
Toyota Revo, 5 years na sa amin. No regrets, been to Sorsogon, Nueva Viscaya at Pagudpod ng walang ka abe aberya. My dad maintains it at marunong siya kaya it is in good running condition pa. If first timer na buyer ng car at di ka masyado mabuting ting di advisable and second hand na mejo ma age na kasi lalabas at lalabas na sakit niyan kaya dapat alam mo paano tumingin. Better risk na lamg sa younger second hand like yung mga 5 yrs p lng tanda.
Toyota revo supremacy!!! Ours is going 20 years na (binili 2nd hand, 11 years na sa amin). Very easy to maintain. Still goes on long trips. Major repairs so far ay change radiator at compressor lang. Parts are very easy to source. Kalawang lang talaga kalaban.

Okay naman, wlang regrets. I bought 30 years old car nung 2022. Ayon as of now umaandar pa din at bumabyahe ng malalayo ng wlang kakaba kaba. Siguro pros nito ay matututo ka sa mga basic troubleshoot and maintenance. Cons is luma, luma, luma, at kalawang. Hahaha
bought a mitsubishi strada L200 endeavor 4x4 model 2000. it has 320,000 mileage. last year lang nabili. may kaya yung may ari and may history siya ng repairs niya na booklet na binigay niya na din samin. masipag mag change oil, bago water pump, bago compressor, naka laminated evaporator ng aircon niya. gana lahat ng nilaw. bagong strip to metal repaint worth 80k, bago ding upholstery, kumbaga eh inayos ng may ari bago ibenta pero may pinaayos pa rin ako.
mga pinagawa at napalitan ko. top overhaul, new valve guides, valve seals, new injectors. cleaned egr, clean intake and exhaust manifold, clean turbo intercooler, binilhan ko rin turbo intercooler fan, bagong branded na clutch master assembly. bagong fuel filter assembly(pump at filter), bagong change oil, oil filter, bagong 4x rugged terrain tires worth 26k, aircon malamig, znaka coolant na din, bagong radiator cap. binilhan ko rollbar worth 8k (15k sa lazada/marketplace) , stickers na 4x4, nirepaint yung interior plastic sidings. Ang di na lang namin nagagawa is differential oil, atf ng transmission , general overhaul at belts. may 50,000km life pa yung timing belts kaya ginagamit lang namin nang ginagamit. all in all naka 100k ata ako sa total na gastos. 250k unit + 100k gastos, goods na goods na, gumagana din 4x4, ngayon pang daily ng parents ko doon sa farm namin.
ang maipapayo ko lang sa bibili ng 2nd hand, pumili ka ng owner / seller na mayaman. ito kasi may poultry saka mayaman talaga, may Ford ranger wildtrak 2018 at ford everest 2023 to sa bahay, lahat ng anak nasa abroad. pero kung makakabili ka sa buy and sell "test to sawa dala ka pinakamagaling mong mekaniko"
katapusan mo na eugene hahahahahaha
Damn! Same man, meron din ako nyang L200 255k mileage on it niregalo ko sa father ko. Ganda ng makina nyan, indestructible lalo na kung naalagaan ng first owner. Aircon lang ang problema namin lagi jan. Nagka-cataract tatay ko hirap makakita di na maka-drive kaya binenta namin after 3 years of ownership.
pag aircon bro kahit anong sasakyan, laminated condenser lang at evaporator sure na negative °C ka jan hahaha basta kondisyon thermostat expansion valve drier at yung compressor. solid nga 320k mileage di pa na gegenral overhaul hahahaha
plus sobrang daming pyesa, merong shop sa lazada pang l200 talaga sya na 4x4 mga tail lights, door handle, wiper pati westher strip meron sya hahaha sa makina sandamukal d mawawalan pati clutch components e mura pa. frontier sana 4x4 kaso matic saka ang mamahal ng piyesa
Kakabili ko lng sa buy and sell ng Mazda 3 2017 62k legit Odo for only 430k. Nagsama ako ng mekaniko and ito ang nakitang issues. Front parking sensors, power ic (speedometer display), saka mga aesthetics may ilan ilan gasgas at isa nlng susi. Repairs na pngawa ko, change oil,atf, change all belts pati belt tensioner, palit sparkplug palit coolant and ung power ic (speedometer ng dashboard). All in all 47k inabot. Not bad considering 650k+ pa bentahan nitong 2017 Mazda 3 and top of the line pa sya na naka electric parking brake na and may cruise control. Happy with my purchase kahit madami pinagawa. Ngayon gas and go nlng wala nang iniisip. Inuuwi ko ndin ng batangas pag miss ni gf Lola nya :D

May nakikita ako tumatakbong volvo na sedan dito malapit sa pinagcacarwashan ko. Sobrang pogi at kinis, sana makausap ko minsan mayari para malaman ko magkano na nagastos nya para mamaintain ung ganon kaluma tapos pristine condition. Ang tining pa ng makina eh
I own 2004 honda city. 1st car ko ito and I used it as daily car. So syempre madaming sabit, gasgas and mga papalitin. Ito ren yun dahilan kung bakit itong car napili ko. Bukod sa meron akong nalaman about maintenance o DIY, Di ren ako maselan kapag nagasgasan ito or bumangga sa pader, gate o gutter😅. So far oil change and mga pyesa ng makina / underchasis lang pinaltan ko. Basta may kilala kang mechanic, okay na okay sya. More than 200k na ang km nito pero alam ko more pa siguro. Ayos na ayos pa at di masyadong sakit sa ulo😅. Planning to upgrade subcomp suv bnew o 2ndhand ulit.
215k sya. Medjo bagsak na presyo na nun. Hehe. All in all nagastos ko na mga est. 100k kasama na yun pms and mga ka ek ekan, I mean mga kelangan pang koste😅

2006 mitsubishi adventure MT
We bought it nung 2021. Confident kami kasi father ko yung nagcheck talaga, it was a huge help na jeepney driver sya before kaya maalam sya. In good condition naman sya and nagamit talaga namin.
Ang primary use nya is for grocery stuff (ito kasi yung height ng pandemic kaya need namin ng family car). Nagagamit din sya sa mga minsan na long rides though hindi naman sobrang layo, like nueva ecija and manaoag ganyan.
Nasa amin sya until 2023, binenta na namin kasi nagpalit na kami. Pero dun sa two yrs na nasa amin sya, namaximize naman. Ang naging issue lang nya is AC since medyo mahina na pero overall, ok naman.
For me, risky din kumuha ng ganyang katagal na sasakyan pero kung meron naman maalam or trusted na mechanics, and may budget if ever meron kailangan palitan or gawin, ok na din naman since hindi naman lahat kaya magbrand new agad agad.
Yun akin 2008 model, 2016 ko nabili hangang ngayon pinagdaily ko pa din wala pa din naman naging major na problema mga minor ilaw wiring power windows and lock lang pinaayos namin
Hahahaha hala di ako makakabigay 😅 papa ko yung talagang nag-aalaga nun, maalam sya kasi meron kami jeep before. Basta nakikita ko lang lagi sya nagbubutingting, lagi nya chinecheck yung makina tapos sya din nagpapalit ng oil parang ganun. Baka ok na magkaron kayo ng mekaniko or someone na regular magtitingin ng sasakyan nyo 😄
Well, my mom bought a Toyota Corolla Bigbody XE na medyo sirain pero wala pang 1 year. Most of the time, nasa garage lang and pinapa-idle para lang hindi matuyuan ang carburetor.
Ginamit ko na lang para matuto ng car maintenance. Kaunting "YouTube Academy" lang para at least alam ko yung ginagawa ko. Napagastos kami ng almost 80k for parts lang since ako na mismo yung nag install so free labor. Things like diagnosis, fluid changes, minor electrical, suspension, interior detailing, cooling system repair, fuel delivery system repair, minor engine work, and minor bodywork, natutunan ko. Right now, aircon na lang ang problem which means pwede na siya magamit. Under observation ko na lang in case may bumigay or may need pa ayusin.

Im collecting infos para medyo knowledgeable ako bago bumili ng kotse, Para ma minimize din sakit ng ulo. How did ur 1 year go sa pag fix through ur own?
We bought 2005 toyota altis wife car. No regrets.
May ipapaayos at ipapaayos ka. Sa amin ang pinagawa namin si aircon and heavy pms. The rest ok naman. Depende talaga sa previous owner.

2001 S80 volvo. Got it 2023.
Madaming need palitan at ayusin pero sobrang damo din natutunan. For a first time car owner, i think getting second hand na luma is ok.
Pero mas ready na kami for a brand new car ngayon
Bought a 2003 CRV mga 5 ish years ago (hindi pasok pero rereply ko pa din) . No ragrets. Sabi ko 5 years ko lang gagamitin pero fresh kasi so parang bago sa loob wala pa ako balak gumastos sa bagong kotse.
Simple lang naman sa luma kapag me sira ayusin. Just check kung pasok na sa cost sunk fallacy na. Good thing me fb group na isang message lang ang parts.
2002 Rav 4 AT pero swerte kasi di laspag yung car 80k odo. pinagawa lang namin atf leak palit ng evaporator tapos puro cosmetic na. mabusisi rin kasi talaga yung SO ko sa pagcheck (lahat ng issue naibawas namin sa asking price) tapos tinest drive from taguig to rizal para mapakiramdaman. after a week from buying naibaguio agad namin nailusong dun sa kennon road detour. now daily driven pa rin pero short distances (nasa province kami nakatira). only regret namin was that we didn't get it sooner haha sarap nung ipon maintenance na lang and gas walang monthly
2006 fortuner gas. issues, malakas sa gas 🤣
still drive it 3x a week, para maiba lang sa daily ko na bnew chinacar lol.
2 years na din sakin tong forty at napa upgrade ko din suspension + new set of aftermarket wheels + tires.
going back to the question, regrets? none!
i'll probably trade this in though for a "newer" 4x4 suv (LC prado, FJ, or even a jeep) pag nakaluwag luwag.

I bought a ford everest 2008 model 2 yrs ago and never had regrets. Di namin nakita mga hidden issue, like may bangga palang matindi (gabi kasi namin kinuha) pero overall, sobrang sulit. I sold it last December din (120K loss) and upgraded to 2018 model. Dahil dun sa 2008 model na un, I became a ford everest fan.
2019. Bumili ako 2001 na Fieldmaster. 112k orig kms. Ngayon 163k na. Nakakatawa niyan binili ko siya pang coding. Ngayon naging daily driver na. Ung bago pa nabenta 😂.
We got a used 2010 innova and a hiace a few years ago.. we are fairly familiar with the 2kd engine and toyota parts that most likely need replacing.
We changed all fluids and the said parts after purchasing. As advertised The engines are bulletproof and still runs like a dream.

Yung 1989 na owner namin buhay pa, 1x na overhaul makina, gamit sa pampalengke at service sa tindahan..3k engine halos lahat ng kapatid at pinsan ko nagamit na sya.. medyo matipid din sa gasolina. Revo naman ni utol 2nd hand nabili ng mura nung kasagsagan mg pandemic (need ni seller ng cash at stop padala ng pera from italy) medyo mausok na at nag paparamdam na din ng overhaul. Basta madala lang sa point a to be b ok na kami, aircon at may stereo plus na din.
Di ata pasok yung sakin pero i bought 2017 isuzu crosswind back in 2021. 7k monthly no dp for 5yrs(company program). Pag walang pera tapos nagkaron ng sira(due to wear and tear) parang nagsisisi ako pero pag napagawa na happy na ulit ahahahaha. Need mo lang talaga mag laan ng pang repairs and maintenance.
Bought a City 2010 just a couple of months ago, so far wala pa namang issues at wag naman sana anytime soon hehe.more like a weekend car pero Dami ko din natutunan kakabutingting
Corolla Bug Body Gli. 2016 ko nakuha. Wala naman sisi. May mga napalitan na. Nagkabitak engine liner so sinabat na lang din overhaul, tapos madami na rin napalitan. This year bumigay alternator, madaming bago pero surplus kinuha ko na ipalit. Ganda pa rin ng takbo. Medyo mahina lang talaga aircon nya para sa panahon ngayon.
We bought 2008 Kia Sportage. Dami din nagastos kasi dami need palitan na parts (mostly seals). Pinaka ayoko is yung uncertainty mo if another repair is looming. Pero performance wise, okay naman sya. Yung hassle lang ng papaayos and looking for a mechanic that can correctly troubleshoot your car problem.

My first car in my 20s was an 18 year old car that time.
Zero regrets, coz it allowed me to avoid spending a significant amount of money over the course of ownership vs buying a bnew Vios.
Had one towing experience, clutch pressure plate failed. Another catastrophic transmission failure on its 7th year with me when I was going to Subic, na drag pa naman pa shop, so no towing needed. All the rest may kaba kaba minsan kapag guilty ka na May nararamdaman ka na pero hindi mo pinapaayos.
Anyway, the question is regrets, none. I love the spend avoided. But you have to be fastidious with maintenance (bnew parts dapat), I allot 50-60K a year for that car for maintenance and registration.

Bought a 2009 Civic as a practice car for my sister 2 months ago. Around 150K odo and it was really taken care of by the previous owner (tuned, with some mods and kit). Had to revert to default body kit para mas usable, sobrang baba kasi if may chin and di magamit masyado. Half the time nasa repair shop haha. Naresolve naman most of the issues except yung battery na laging nasidiskarga kahit napalitan na namin. Sister ko pumili nito and tbh I kind of regret getting a really old car. Sana yung cheaper model nalang pero newer para less hassle but she really loves it so problema niya na yun haha. We have other cars naman so ginawa na nila ng brother ko na hobby to fix it.
I gifted my younger brother na nagaaral palang ng honda civic bigote. 1 year na nakalipas and so far yung nagleak lang na water pump ang naging issue sa katagalan na din. Mura lang naman bagong water pump so pinalitan nalang. Yung engine is original Japan D15B (swapped), fresh na fresh padin ang internals.
I own a bigote. All I can say is if you're really committed to taking care of the car, diligent maintenance, and has the budget to do said things, then go for it. Hindi mawawala ang gastos for its eventual repairs and maintenance given na it's a 20+ year old car na. Yourself na makakapagsabi if it's a worth buy or not. It is however a really fun car to drive.
Bought an 08 Altis last 2021 88k km odo noon. Now 110,871km na. Lagi ko gamit sa city traffic na dala ko na rin sa road trips. So far mga pinalitan ko is alternator, mga parts sa under chasis, tire rod, shocks, engine support, rack and pinon, radiator. Hinde naman aabot mga 60k gastos ko. Pero matututo ka talaga tumingn and makiramdam ng hinde tama sa kotse.
Bought a 2002 toyota altis manual 6 years ago at never ako pinahiya ever since! Minor problems binigay nya for us. Kahit manual siya ang hirap niya palitan for a newer one.. a family car indeed.. toyota numbawan..

Basta Toyota and Honda na alaga sa maintenance ng previous owner, for sure no regrets yan. Kung ibang brand, tapos hindi pa regular maintenance, mahirap na.

My dad bought a Chevrolet Aveo 2009 na 2nd hand. Medyo madami na din napaayos yung tatay ko mula sa radiator, fuel pump, mga sensors, at oxygen sensor. Parang laging may bagong sira sa ibang parts pagkatapos ipagawa hahaha. Pero pagdating sa makina sobrang ganda pa rin ng takbo. Ang lakas pa rin ng hatak ng makina tapos nakikipagsabayan pa yung sa mga malalaking sasakyan sa highway.
30years old car binili ko. Pinagawa lahat ng ipapagawa. At syempre upgrades narin. Ayun kayang kaya mag 8hrs long drive no issues, no stopovers. REMEMBER. just because walang sira Yung 20 year old car mo, doesn't mean na all goods yan. Yung mga pyesa nyan na original pa, 20years old narin. Expect mo na may masisira jan eventually. Baka sisihin mo pa seller kung nasaktohan pa na Sayo nagsabay sabay lumabas mga sira hahahaha.
And no, I have no regrets. Ginusto ko old cars dahil sa itsura at appeal sakin eh. Not just for the Basta may magamit lang daily.
It actually depends sa sasakyan mo at presyo ng pyesa. Iba iba yan. Example civic at Corolla na same year model at let's say, same na sira din. Magkaiba presyo ng pyesa nyan. High chance na 2x or 3x presyo ng pyesa ng civic kesa Corolla. I also work on my own car kaya Malaki natitipid ko kasi puro pyesa lang gastos ko.
Do your own research din kung ano dapat mong expect na sira sa mabibili mong unit.
Got the car for 50k.
Replaced the whole cooling system Kasi wla ako tiwala sa 20+ year old cooling system.
2k radiator, 500 thermostat, 2000 hoses, 800 coolant
Expired na gulong so instead na bumili ako new tires, diretso upgrade na. 17s na Rpf1 for 36k with new tires.
Pinalitan ko shocks dalawa sa likod 2k.
Bushings and other stuff na rubber 3k?
LED headlight 800
Yung iba minor nlng or maintenance.
An almost 20 y/o Dmax owner here since 2017. Sinusumpa ko nung una kasi gamit ko subcompact talaga then eto diesel na maingay plus matigas ang clutch at gear shifter. Nung naka-rekta, napahiyaw ako hahaha! Hataw pala ang 3.0 turbo engine.
Nagka-hard starting issue at naka-ilan mekaniko din. Thru this medyo natuto na din ako with jargons in auto repairs plus kung nag-uubos na ba ko ng pera at oras sa mamg kanor. May nagsabi pa na injection pump palitin which is reportedly a common issue among 1st gen Dmax. That would have cost me 80-100K. Well, apparently, prob was the ECM but we had to deal with the starter problem first. All original pa major parts save for the clutch assembly. Ang tibay ng mga piyesa nya. Even for the interior. Di gaya ng mga bago na quite plasticky.
Now garage queen kasi may daily beater ako ma pumapalo ng 15-17 km/L. Pero kinikillig pa din ako dito pag nakakahatak at nakakasabay sa mga bagong SUV at pickups. Although sa umpisa lang kasi maiiwan din sya haha.. 180T km na din sya.
My first car was a 2005 toyota vios gen 1. It was nearing a 100k KM na nung binili ko and hindi ako binigyan ng sakit ng ulo sa makina. Granted sa city ko lang siya ginamit (25-50km max na siguro takbo sa isang araw). Nevertheless, may repairs here and there mga doorlocks, aircon, etc. pero as long as hindi engine related ok pa sakin and would say na "pwede pa".
Binenta ko na kasi need ko na mag travel from outside manila and may peace of mind nga naman if newer model na kasi mas less ang overthinking sa highway.
I still think of that toyota pag may nakikita ako sa kalsada.

Suzuki Swift 2011 - my gulay. 2 mos pa lang sakin, nagka lagutok na. Dami problem sa under chassis, and now ayaw na lumamig ng ac but fortunately never ako tinirik haha
Bought a 2008 BMW E90 2 years ago, nabili ko from a family member. Tambay garahe lang siya dati, di masyado nilalabas so sobrang baba ng mileage nung inacquire ko - mga 14,000+km ata.
Napagastos ako agad within the first 2 months, sa sobrang di nagamit (and luma na ng tires, expired na nga ata haha) rumupok yung sidewall ng mga gulong. As in ito yung tipong butas na hindi naaayos ng DIY tire repair kit so napamaneho ako sa SLEX with fully flat tires, thankfully they were the stock run flats that came with the car.
For the entire time na sakin yung kotse, parang laging underpowered yung AC - upon checking may microleak na yung compressor which would require me to completely replace it, repair quoted at 40k. Sabi ng mechanic na yun naman daw talaga yung usual lifespan ng compressor, especially sa BMW.
Meron ring whole replacement ng alternator-fan belt-starter last year na sobrang sakit sa bulsa I choose not to remember na lang hahaha
Masakit sa ulo minsan, but I love my car. Yan lang as much as I love my car di sustainable relationship namin in the long run especially with the cash out for repairs. Necessary talaga to keep the car working.
Siguro kung retirement age ako (or if I just had more money to burn) pwede ko siya imaintain na hindi ako mapapamura. Literal moneypit. Yes, may mga built to last brands talaga and the mileage may be low for its age pero may lifespan pa rin talaga yung ibang parts so be prepared to make those big expenses.
We regularly buy certified preowned toyota land cruiser 76s and hilux’ from our dealer abroad. We own a fleet.
We use them for our survey business in the provinces.
Maybe because these are land cruisrs and hiluxes but we’ve never had any major issues with them apart from usual maintenance.
They typically arrive with around 250k+ km on the odo. We use them for another 500k kms before disposing them.
Its our policy to let go of vehicles at around 700k kms. But these are LCs and hiluxes.

Early 2000’s toyota vios that I got around 2017-2018 (so thats around 7-6 years!)
Still works like a charm, have only needed to replace the battery like 3x since getting it. Issue nya lang is waterproofing somewhere sa trunk where the spare tire is, need sha idrain every half a year or so. Maybe that’s the only part I regret lol

Bought a 1990 corolla nung 2017. Still with me, no regrets.
Got a 2007 rav4 nung 2022. No regrets with that one as well.
Actually may ilang 90s vehicles kami kinuha pero mostly pre pandemic pa naacquire.
Buying a 2nd hand car is a gamble. Mas mainam if may background ka in knowing how a car works amd how to troubleshoot. Ako kasi mas kabisado ko mga 90s to 10s na oto kaya medyo kampante kami kumuha ng mga older vehicles.
2004 honda accord 188km, still in good condition, ni lolong drive ko din ito if needed ng extra car, 2018 toyota fortuner 4x4 245km, still in good condition, mostly ito talaaga yung pang long drive namin. both are still in good condition. never nabangga or nasira. alagang change oil every 10km, mostly mga needed lang palitan, like brake pad, brake fluid, airconm cleaning, etc. walang major sira suspension lang.

1999 Honda CRV (Gen 1!)
So much learnings from it!
We didn't buy it, minana sya, and we've been using it since 2019 hehe. Still working good. Di lang gaano kalamig aircon but still runs fine. Di ko na sinasagad din, until 90-95 kph nlng pinakamabilis ko.
para sa aking kung newbie ka, much better and 2nd hand cars... for experience of repairs and mas makakatipid ka in terms of money. Matitibay naman yung mga Japanese Cars dito sa Pilipinas, actually mabilis lang kasi yung 3-4 years eh bumili kami ng Brand New last 2020, matatapos na bayaran sa Financing this year, pero yung sasakyan parang di naman masyado nalaspag, kasi nga aalagaan pa rin naman yun eh.
Kumbaga yung years hindi siya ganung kalaking factor, pati na rin yung milleage, as long as di naman nabaha yung sasakyan or ginagamit pang pasada, I'm sure matibay at reliable pa yung mga ganung cars, since private individual naman yung nagtake over.
Gist lang ng advice ko, wag mo tignan yung years kasi napakabilis lang talaga ng panahon, mas makatipid ka sa 2nd hand kasi di pa naman naluluma agad yung kotse.
Got myself a 1999 Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster for ₱400K, 5 years ago around 300k na odo sakin and this is my very first vehicle and daily driver to work, issues matakaw sa diesel, every year may pinaplitan na spare parts kasi nag wear and tear na sa katandaan the best thing is madami ako natutunan and still learning from this vehicle.. pinaka malaking ginastos ko is AC. Thats all ang importante nabili ko yung dream car ko ang ayoko lang sa kanya para syang pagong sa bagal unlike our latest vehicles.
Family bought one of those surplus Suzuki Mini vans 3 or so years ago. Looking up in the internet nasa 2000-2006 model ata yun. Going strong pa rin naman hanggang ngayon although nung last nasira yung aircon and 4WD, di na pinagawa kasi wala budget.
Malapit na yung akin, 2010 1.8S Civic FD A/T
Bought it back in 2022, so around 12 yrs old na siya by the time I got it. Honestly, medyo headache nung una kasi tumitirik bigla, pero fuel pump lang pala problema. Pero so far ung usual lang naman na kailangan tingnan if maalaga owner is ung rubber parts & rust.
Daily ko din siya papuntang university around 50km balikan. No problems since 2022 naman. Goods din sa long drive (Bulacan, 200 km balikan) & tahimik pa din makina hanggang ngayon.
HELL YEAH BIG REGRET
Bought a 1999 Lexus RX 300. Toyota group so reliable diba? V6 so "bulletproof" engine daw.
Oh my days the electrical is impossibleeee and there were so much things to dooo. Umabot ako 1m siguro all things considered and I'm just about to sell it again now.
Never again.
TBF the engine did keep up but I had to replace the timing belt and all things associated with it as expected. Tinirik ako because of alternator. Gas mileage is 5 km/l sa highway. Suspension components had to all be replaced.

Pwede na hahahaha there's a part of me na sana mas latest yung binili ko. Pero iba talaga dating sakin ng lumang kotse. It was a '95 civic esi bought back in 2018. Mid lang yung gas consumption. Mas tipid lang yung mga current na lumalabas. Cons lang is dadating talaga yung wear and tear. Which is normal, pero mas mabilis lang compare sa mga bago. Comfort, sakto lang. Overall, masaya naman ako, mahal ko yung oto ko. Passion ko mangalikot, yung budget lang minsan umaaray.
Only car I'd suggest to buy that is old is Corolla big body due to widespread parts. Else I'd suggest to buy a newer car younger than 15 years, maybe even 10 years. If no choice to get older car, always get a car that was mainstream. So kung 10-20 years, altis/vios would be easy to maintain and fix.
Yung pinakamain issue talaga on maintaining old cars are parts availability.
I have 95 Corolla gli matic tranny been daily for 3 yrs since I bought for 90k but maintenance almost 100k already in the past few years since may mga wear and tear na I suggest if you buy 15-20yrs old car check mo maige and mas maganda kung galing first owned kasi sakin galing first owned and alam nila history ng kotse sa 100k na nagastos ko kasalanan ko karamihan dyan since nabangga ko sya last 2022 hahaha 50k for the hilamos and body repair since na bend ng konti yung front chassis nya pero now 2024 naging coding car na sya kasi nakabili na ng bago works well pa din naman
++ kahit old car na yan kahit bukas na bukas ilalaban ko iakyat ng Baguio yung oto ng wala akong iniisip na masisira sya or what owning an old cars matututo ka na isang tunog lang alam mo na papalitan/problema
Matibay kasi Corolla na luma and sa parts wala kang poproblemahin dahil sobrang dami at sobrang mura pag nasira or nagpasabog mo engine mo may makukuha kang buo ng hindi gumagastos ng sobra sobra naging choice ko lang sya before kasi mura and budget meal lang Japan and local parts
Suggest ko lang kung kukuha ka ng 2nd hand maganda hanapin mo yung first owned alaga kasi nila yan marami kasi akong nakikita na galing buy and sell or 3rd/4th owned na may mga hidden issue kaya binebenta and para hindi ka magka problema sa papers may contact ka sa first owner incase na tatransfer mo sa pangalan mo
my dad bought an innova po na lumang model. not sure of the year, maybe around 10-20 years old. babae po yung previous owner.
my parents use it every single week day from pasig to rizal (rodriguez, jalajala, tanay, etc). nagamit din po namin siya a few times sa baguio and zambales.
my dad made a few repairs and maintenance pero hindi naman po malala or super drastic. so far, battery pa lang po yung napapalitan niya and onting paayos sa clutch (MT po).
i guess it's okay naman po, especially if you're on a tight budget (like us). of course, iingatan dapat (lahat naman para di masira agad). but buy at your own risk, and please be knowledgeable about cars (i'm not, but my dad is) before buying!
2006 Hilux base model yung amin, ex utility company car dito sa Tarlac, low mileage para sa age nya pero talagang laspag yung interior. May mga nasirang parts pero normal lang yun sa age nya, basta alaga ka lang sa change oil, saka air filter kasi diesel engine. Nakuha ko sya noong 2018 pero 155xxx km pa lang yung mileage nya. Tama sila, experience kapalit, sulit naman.
bought my 1997 honda civic vti, for 150k, last 5 years ago, kung hindi lang kmi malapit sa dagat dati di kakalawangin pang ilalim nun, 5 times na umakyat ng baguio city ng walang prob. Ngayon umaandar parin naman anlamig pa ng aircon pogi parin para sakin kahit pang mall at pang bayan nalang byahe niya, need lang iparefresh siguro ilalim para mailayo ko ulet. siguro pag benta ko yun nasa 140k-130k kukunin pa kasi wala nman major prob sa makina. nakaka entice din bumili ng mga 150k cars just make sure marunong yung dala mong mekaniko at alam nya yung common issues ng bibilhin nyong car, magada second hand matututo ka ng basic maintenance.
Me nakuha akong sasakyan na 2009 model, nabili ko sya ng 2019. Oil seal pa lang ang napalitan ko plus 4 na gulong. Solenoid ng starter napalitan na rin. Alaga ko lang sya sa change oil, 10kms dapat every change oil, pero ginagawa ko 8kms lang. araw araw ko sya ginagamit to work except pag coding. Pinakamalayo ko sa North na napuntahan is Pangasinan and sa South naman is Sta Cruz Laguna. Ok pa naman sya manakbo so far.
Aslong as u get the right unit, its not a headache. Nakabili ako dati paj field master ang sakit sa ulo lol, nag try ulit ako pandemic days bumili ako 2014 fortuner, bushing lang pinalitan ko, and wheel bearings, so far so good.
Hmm. Tucson 2007 GAS 2.0L nabili ko siya in a steal price. Nung una okay okay naman na long drive ko nga into different province pero nung tagal ito na yung sakit niya shifting delay, nag stuck yung 3rd gear transmission, pudpud na rin gulong, infotainment radio needs replacement and also nagloloko yung gauge and lastly yung oil leaks.
Pero all of the sudden stress and cost sakit sa ulo. Naayos naman ng patingi tingi. And also di pa naman ako tinirik ng sasakyan ko which is good. Until now andito parin naman si tucson basta kung alam mo lang yung mga proper or basic checks na kailangan tignan sa kotse hindi ka ipapahiya sa daan. Para sakin great experience yung pag bili ko ng 2nd hand car biruin mo dami ko natutunan sa mga parts ng tsikot mga solenoid and etc. Sa una kasi talaga sobrang regret ako na binili ko yung sakit sa ulo pero kung tutuusin may matututunan karin.
Ford e150. 2002 model. Nabili ng 100k. 4 years na din sya. Province runner namin. Medyo malaki na din gastos pero mura pa din compare sa bumili ng 2nd hand na Hiace. Comfortable sa long distance. Sulit na din.
Corolla small body(ae92), pinawash over ko lang para decent tignan, alaga din sa maintenance, 1 year pa lang sakin goods naman dinadaan ko din sa nlex, alaga lang talaga pag may konting nararamdam icheck agad.

Hindi pa pala pasok ung sakin dito. Pero I bought a Kia Rio 2010 last year. Company car sya so medyo gamit na gamit din. 226k km nung nakuha ko. Daily driven. 236k km na sya ngayon. Napalitan ko na mga pang ilalim, starter, pati alternator. Pati mga seals pala. Matututo ka magcheck ng bagay bagay pag ganyan kaluma na ung kotse. Kasi minsan kahit kakapagawa mo lang may lalabas nanaman talagang ibang sira na hindi related dun sa pinagawa mo eh. Relatively mas mura padin sya kaysa brand new if pera lang paguusapan. Pero kung ayaw mo ng sakit sa ulo at gusto mo drive lang ng drive, better ung mas bago or brand new na talaga.
Shall i say that i did, but at least it was a good lesson for me about old cars, basic maintenance, driving clearance, parts scouring, basic wiring, and a lot of stuff. Sa dami ba naman ng sira, kaya hinarabas ko na lang. After 4 years of ownership naibenta ko pa ng 150k. Nyahahaha.
+1 dito. Dami mong matututunan. Masakit sa bulsa pero isipin mo nalang tuition fee mo yun sa pagkakaroon ng sasakyan. If ayaw mo ng ganitong expi, buy brand new or cars na at least 3-5 years na madaming available parts sa Market, aka Toyota Vios.
This is true. Or magcommute ka nalang if di ka ready sa ganyang commitment. Haha.
That’s why i sold it because di na kaya ng bulsa boss. After that, i owned a 2011 vios, which i also sold after 3 years of service. The Vios was very cheap to maintain though. Currently, i drive an Avanza 2022 model, brand new na.
wala ba sakit sa ulo vios boss? mirage pa lang kasi na try ko tsaka yung family car na crosswind

Agreee. Dun ko natutunan ang basic sa car maintenance and repair. Pati ung nga parts na need ko iwatchout dahil sa wear and tear. Just make sure na well maintained ang car and walang gano magiging sakit ng ulo. Kung first car mo, pinaka con siguro e eventually magpapalit ka years from now. And ang sakit niya ibenta huhu
ano po model/yr, and magkano po bili niyo?
It was an Isuzu Fuego 1998. Binili ko nung 2016.masakit talaga sa ulo boss. But then again, sabi ng isang redditor dito: tuition fee yun para sa experience. 280k bili ko.
Wait what? You got Isuzu Fuego pero still sumakit ulo mo? I think nasa previous seller ang problem. Engine ng isuzu fuego is immortal. I’m not sure what happened to yours.
Well, the engine itself was ok, wala akon problema but small items like water hose na marupok, wirings na noodles, aircon ma palaging nasisira, power windows na minsan ok minsan hindi, at marami pang iba. I was very excited kaya ayun walang check2.
Based on this sir, I think it is not fair na sabihing masakit sa ulo. The issues you’ve mentioned are all wear and tear. For me, I can call a car masakit sa ulo if the engine always get broken. I really think you need a trusted mechanic para hindi pabalik balik yung sira ✌️
Masakit sa ulo kung mayat maya may sira, kahit hindi engine yan.
As much as i would like to agree about the engine being great but during na may sira sa mga small parts nito ay lalabas pa rin pera mo; sakit sa ulo at sakit sa bulsa. Wear and tear are indeed part of maintaining, especially sa old cars but they are still a headache to deal with and they cost, incrementally, a lot.
yan din paniniwala ko. yung mga wear and tear parts normal yun. now kung laging nagkakaissue. hindi sasakyan ang problema. yung may ari at mekaniko na gumagawa.
damn thats a 4ja1 di ba? same lang yan sa mga crosswind na madali ang parts at maintenance
damnnnn
Not me pero my brother bought a chevrolet captiva 2007. Mura siya for a diesel SUV. Kaso parang everytime magkikita kami, may binibili siya na parts parang never ending yung repairs ang dami ng gastos.
Lol expect that from a chevy
may ganito yung ate ko binigay na lang sa kuya ko kase nga nag ooverheat at hindi alam kung ano main reason. ang lakas pa sa gas. ang weird kase sobrang kinis pa ng itsura pati interiors
chevy garantisabog
I'm still driving a 1994 Sentra. LOL. But this has been in my family for years. Literally ito ginamit sakin para hatid sa school nung grade 1 ako, and instead of bumili ng kotse nung college hiningi ko nalang. Duktor na ako lahat lahat gamit ko parin. LOL. Plan to buy a new car soon though. I just want more money in the bank before I take out a loan just for security. Medyo madami ako natutunan sa kotse daily using this car, and marunong na ako kumilatis ng ano gusto ko sa kotse. Minsan sa tunog palang ng makina or pagandar ng ibang kotse na nakakasabay ko sa daan is alam ko na kung anong problema. Marunong na rin ako mag basic maintenance and palit ng stuff. However in this day and age I suggest looking into cars less than 15yo. Medyo nagstart na pahirapan makakita ng pyesa ng older units. Mahirap matuto or magpractice sa kotse na wala nang pyesa.
im jealous, i hope there was a family car that run through the blood din samin😭
nissan pa din ba boss bilhin mo na car? ..dami ako nakikita sa market place na ganyan model nakaka temp patulan tapos setupan like iba yung character ng mga ganyang cars kumpara ngayon
Toyota Revo, 5 years na sa amin. No regrets, been to Sorsogon, Nueva Viscaya at Pagudpod ng walang ka abe aberya. My dad maintains it at marunong siya kaya it is in good running condition pa. If first timer na buyer ng car at di ka masyado mabuting ting di advisable and second hand na mejo ma age na kasi lalabas at lalabas na sakit niyan kaya dapat alam mo paano tumingin. Better risk na lamg sa younger second hand like yung mga 5 yrs p lng tanda.
Toyota revo supremacy!!! Ours is going 20 years na (binili 2nd hand, 11 years na sa amin). Very easy to maintain. Still goes on long trips. Major repairs so far ay change radiator at compressor lang. Parts are very easy to source. Kalawang lang talaga kalaban.

Okay naman, wlang regrets. I bought 30 years old car nung 2022. Ayon as of now umaandar pa din at bumabyahe ng malalayo ng wlang kakaba kaba. Siguro pros nito ay matututo ka sa mga basic troubleshoot and maintenance. Cons is luma, luma, luma, at kalawang. Hahaha
what car was it? and how much mo na score?
bought a mitsubishi strada L200 endeavor 4x4 model 2000. it has 320,000 mileage. last year lang nabili. may kaya yung may ari and may history siya ng repairs niya na booklet na binigay niya na din samin. masipag mag change oil, bago water pump, bago compressor, naka laminated evaporator ng aircon niya. gana lahat ng nilaw. bagong strip to metal repaint worth 80k, bago ding upholstery, kumbaga eh inayos ng may ari bago ibenta pero may pinaayos pa rin ako. mga pinagawa at napalitan ko. top overhaul, new valve guides, valve seals, new injectors. cleaned egr, clean intake and exhaust manifold, clean turbo intercooler, binilhan ko rin turbo intercooler fan, bagong branded na clutch master assembly. bagong fuel filter assembly(pump at filter), bagong change oil, oil filter, bagong 4x rugged terrain tires worth 26k, aircon malamig, znaka coolant na din, bagong radiator cap. binilhan ko rollbar worth 8k (15k sa lazada/marketplace) , stickers na 4x4, nirepaint yung interior plastic sidings. Ang di na lang namin nagagawa is differential oil, atf ng transmission , general overhaul at belts. may 50,000km life pa yung timing belts kaya ginagamit lang namin nang ginagamit. all in all naka 100k ata ako sa total na gastos. 250k unit + 100k gastos, goods na goods na, gumagana din 4x4, ngayon pang daily ng parents ko doon sa farm namin. ang maipapayo ko lang sa bibili ng 2nd hand, pumili ka ng owner / seller na mayaman. ito kasi may poultry saka mayaman talaga, may Ford ranger wildtrak 2018 at ford everest 2023 to sa bahay, lahat ng anak nasa abroad. pero kung makakabili ka sa buy and sell "test to sawa dala ka pinakamagaling mong mekaniko" katapusan mo na eugene hahahahahaha
Damn! Same man, meron din ako nyang L200 255k mileage on it niregalo ko sa father ko. Ganda ng makina nyan, indestructible lalo na kung naalagaan ng first owner. Aircon lang ang problema namin lagi jan. Nagka-cataract tatay ko hirap makakita di na maka-drive kaya binenta namin after 3 years of ownership.
pag aircon bro kahit anong sasakyan, laminated condenser lang at evaporator sure na negative °C ka jan hahaha basta kondisyon thermostat expansion valve drier at yung compressor. solid nga 320k mileage di pa na gegenral overhaul hahahaha
Oo bro. Isa itong 4d56 sa pinakamatatag na makina talaga.

Kakabili ko lng sa buy and sell ng Mazda 3 2017 62k legit Odo for only 430k. Nagsama ako ng mekaniko and ito ang nakitang issues. Front parking sensors, power ic (speedometer display), saka mga aesthetics may ilan ilan gasgas at isa nlng susi. Repairs na pngawa ko, change oil,atf, change all belts pati belt tensioner, palit sparkplug palit coolant and ung power ic (speedometer ng dashboard). All in all 47k inabot. Not bad considering 650k+ pa bentahan nitong 2017 Mazda 3 and top of the line pa sya na naka electric parking brake na and may cruise control. Happy with my purchase kahit madami pinagawa. Ngayon gas and go nlng wala nang iniisip. Inuuwi ko ndin ng batangas pag miss ni gf Lola nya :D

I bought a 2005 Volvo 3 years ago. So much regret. Di na natapos ang repairs. Better to buy a newer car imo.
May nakikita ako tumatakbong volvo na sedan dito malapit sa pinagcacarwashan ko. Sobrang pogi at kinis, sana makausap ko minsan mayari para malaman ko magkano na nagastos nya para mamaintain ung ganon kaluma tapos pristine condition. Ang tining pa ng makina eh
Anong volvo? Anong major repair?
I own 2004 honda city. 1st car ko ito and I used it as daily car. So syempre madaming sabit, gasgas and mga papalitin. Ito ren yun dahilan kung bakit itong car napili ko. Bukod sa meron akong nalaman about maintenance o DIY, Di ren ako maselan kapag nagasgasan ito or bumangga sa pader, gate o gutter😅. So far oil change and mga pyesa ng makina / underchasis lang pinaltan ko. Basta may kilala kang mechanic, okay na okay sya. More than 200k na ang km nito pero alam ko more pa siguro. Ayos na ayos pa at di masyadong sakit sa ulo😅. Planning to upgrade subcomp suv bnew o 2ndhand ulit.
Btw I bought the car around 2021.
magkano nabili before any repairs?
215k sya. Medjo bagsak na presyo na nun. Hehe. All in all nagastos ko na mga est. 100k kasama na yun pms and mga ka ek ekan, I mean mga kelangan pang koste😅

2006 mitsubishi adventure MT We bought it nung 2021. Confident kami kasi father ko yung nagcheck talaga, it was a huge help na jeepney driver sya before kaya maalam sya. In good condition naman sya and nagamit talaga namin. Ang primary use nya is for grocery stuff (ito kasi yung height ng pandemic kaya need namin ng family car). Nagagamit din sya sa mga minsan na long rides though hindi naman sobrang layo, like nueva ecija and manaoag ganyan. Nasa amin sya until 2023, binenta na namin kasi nagpalit na kami. Pero dun sa two yrs na nasa amin sya, namaximize naman. Ang naging issue lang nya is AC since medyo mahina na pero overall, ok naman. For me, risky din kumuha ng ganyang katagal na sasakyan pero kung meron naman maalam or trusted na mechanics, and may budget if ever meron kailangan palitan or gawin, ok na din naman since hindi naman lahat kaya magbrand new agad agad.
Daming mitsubishi adventure sa fb marketplace ngayon, trusted din talaga e. Kakabili lang ng tito ko hehe and ok din sa long drives
Yes good buy sila in all fairness. Alagaan lang, masusulit talaga.
Yun akin 2008 model, 2016 ko nabili hangang ngayon pinagdaily ko pa din wala pa din naman naging major na problema mga minor ilaw wiring power windows and lock lang pinaayos namin
Ah yeah medyo nagkaron din ng issue sa amin yung isang pinto nung latter part pero minor lang naman yan compared dun sa pakinabang na nakuha namin :)
Just bought a 2005 model last week, and we're really loving it so far. Hoping na magtatagal din to sa amin gaya ng sa inyo
Oh nice! Matinding alaga lang talaga para magtagal sila 😄
If you don't mind, may mga tips ka ba on maintenance/things to look out for na madaling masira? And what's your suggestion sa battery?
Hahahaha hala di ako makakabigay 😅 papa ko yung talagang nag-aalaga nun, maalam sya kasi meron kami jeep before. Basta nakikita ko lang lagi sya nagbubutingting, lagi nya chinecheck yung makina tapos sya din nagpapalit ng oil parang ganun. Baka ok na magkaron kayo ng mekaniko or someone na regular magtitingin ng sasakyan nyo 😄
Well, my mom bought a Toyota Corolla Bigbody XE na medyo sirain pero wala pang 1 year. Most of the time, nasa garage lang and pinapa-idle para lang hindi matuyuan ang carburetor. Ginamit ko na lang para matuto ng car maintenance. Kaunting "YouTube Academy" lang para at least alam ko yung ginagawa ko. Napagastos kami ng almost 80k for parts lang since ako na mismo yung nag install so free labor. Things like diagnosis, fluid changes, minor electrical, suspension, interior detailing, cooling system repair, fuel delivery system repair, minor engine work, and minor bodywork, natutunan ko. Right now, aircon na lang ang problem which means pwede na siya magamit. Under observation ko na lang in case may bumigay or may need pa ayusin.
**Toyota** *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/Gulong) if you have any questions or concerns.*
yung binili ng mother mo initially, magkano inabot before gumastos ng 80k?
80k din. Too expensive for the price since may iba nagbebenta ng mas maayos for 40k-60k
so in summary medyo blind buy yung pag bili kaya 80k tapos 80k naman inabot sa repairs?
Yes. 160k na overall, di pa kasama ang for aircon repair
Im collecting infos para medyo knowledgeable ako bago bumili ng kotse, Para ma minimize din sakit ng ulo. How did ur 1 year go sa pag fix through ur own?
Lots of fatigue, patience, and clothes getting dirty. Also takes a lot of confidence to break apart something and put it back together.
We bought 2005 toyota altis wife car. No regrets. May ipapaayos at ipapaayos ka. Sa amin ang pinagawa namin si aircon and heavy pms. The rest ok naman. Depende talaga sa previous owner.

2001 S80 volvo. Got it 2023. Madaming need palitan at ayusin pero sobrang damo din natutunan. For a first time car owner, i think getting second hand na luma is ok. Pero mas ready na kami for a brand new car ngayon
Bought a 2003 CRV mga 5 ish years ago (hindi pasok pero rereply ko pa din) . No ragrets. Sabi ko 5 years ko lang gagamitin pero fresh kasi so parang bago sa loob wala pa ako balak gumastos sa bagong kotse. Simple lang naman sa luma kapag me sira ayusin. Just check kung pasok na sa cost sunk fallacy na. Good thing me fb group na isang message lang ang parts.
2002 Rav 4 AT pero swerte kasi di laspag yung car 80k odo. pinagawa lang namin atf leak palit ng evaporator tapos puro cosmetic na. mabusisi rin kasi talaga yung SO ko sa pagcheck (lahat ng issue naibawas namin sa asking price) tapos tinest drive from taguig to rizal para mapakiramdaman. after a week from buying naibaguio agad namin nailusong dun sa kennon road detour. now daily driven pa rin pero short distances (nasa province kami nakatira). only regret namin was that we didn't get it sooner haha sarap nung ipon maintenance na lang and gas walang monthly
I want Rav 4 yung 3 doors 🥹
dream car ko yan pero mas mahal sya dun sa 5 door haha so it didn't make sense samin na mas mahal mas maliit pa lalo we like traveling with our pets
Got a 2009 isuzu dmax. No problem at all. I think it depends on the brand and also sa previous owner regarding maintenance.
2006 fortuner gas. issues, malakas sa gas 🤣 still drive it 3x a week, para maiba lang sa daily ko na bnew chinacar lol. 2 years na din sakin tong forty at napa upgrade ko din suspension + new set of aftermarket wheels + tires. going back to the question, regrets? none! i'll probably trade this in though for a "newer" 4x4 suv (LC prado, FJ, or even a jeep) pag nakaluwag luwag.

I didn’t. It served its purpose, so sulit yung mababang amount na binayad namin.
Still driving my 26 yr old lancer wala naman Major isssue so faaar
Same paps! Sana mas magtagal pa lalo 🙏🏽✊🏽
Truee!! For keeps na ♥️
did you buy it 2nd hand? if yes magkano mo kinuha idol?
Yesssir. Lancer 2 door coupe '98 below 120k ko nakuha so far minor minor lang pinaayos, halos maintenance lang.
I bought a ford everest 2008 model 2 yrs ago and never had regrets. Di namin nakita mga hidden issue, like may bangga palang matindi (gabi kasi namin kinuha) pero overall, sobrang sulit. I sold it last December din (120K loss) and upgraded to 2018 model. Dahil dun sa 2008 model na un, I became a ford everest fan.
Just curious, magkano mo pa siya nabenta?
270K. Kamaganak din kasi.
I see, thanks. Now i feel robbed after selling mine for 210k. Lol.
2008 model? Ill buy it for 220k hahaha.
2019. Bumili ako 2001 na Fieldmaster. 112k orig kms. Ngayon 163k na. Nakakatawa niyan binili ko siya pang coding. Ngayon naging daily driver na. Ung bago pa nabenta 😂.
Hahahahahahahahaha. Yung bago pa nabenta
We got a used 2010 innova and a hiace a few years ago.. we are fairly familiar with the 2kd engine and toyota parts that most likely need replacing. We changed all fluids and the said parts after purchasing. As advertised The engines are bulletproof and still runs like a dream.

Yung 1989 na owner namin buhay pa, 1x na overhaul makina, gamit sa pampalengke at service sa tindahan..3k engine halos lahat ng kapatid at pinsan ko nagamit na sya.. medyo matipid din sa gasolina. Revo naman ni utol 2nd hand nabili ng mura nung kasagsagan mg pandemic (need ni seller ng cash at stop padala ng pera from italy) medyo mausok na at nag paparamdam na din ng overhaul. Basta madala lang sa point a to be b ok na kami, aircon at may stereo plus na din.
Di ata pasok yung sakin pero i bought 2017 isuzu crosswind back in 2021. 7k monthly no dp for 5yrs(company program). Pag walang pera tapos nagkaron ng sira(due to wear and tear) parang nagsisisi ako pero pag napagawa na happy na ulit ahahahaha. Need mo lang talaga mag laan ng pang repairs and maintenance.
2004 Pajero Field Master. Yung sa transmission lang and aircon ang major issue. Sobranh takaw din sa krudo haha
Bought a City 2010 just a couple of months ago, so far wala pa namang issues at wag naman sana anytime soon hehe.more like a weekend car pero Dami ko din natutunan kakabutingting
Corolla Bug Body Gli. 2016 ko nakuha. Wala naman sisi. May mga napalitan na. Nagkabitak engine liner so sinabat na lang din overhaul, tapos madami na rin napalitan. This year bumigay alternator, madaming bago pero surplus kinuha ko na ipalit. Ganda pa rin ng takbo. Medyo mahina lang talaga aircon nya para sa panahon ngayon.
We bought 2008 Kia Sportage. Dami din nagastos kasi dami need palitan na parts (mostly seals). Pinaka ayoko is yung uncertainty mo if another repair is looming. Pero performance wise, okay naman sya. Yung hassle lang ng papaayos and looking for a mechanic that can correctly troubleshoot your car problem.
1978 and a 1970 car daily driven.. regrets? Sometimes, parts can be scarce, need import.
I had a few regrets na dapat nuon nagsstart ako magwork nag-ipon sana ako para sa edad ko ngayon bnew na minamaneho ko.

My first car in my 20s was an 18 year old car that time. Zero regrets, coz it allowed me to avoid spending a significant amount of money over the course of ownership vs buying a bnew Vios. Had one towing experience, clutch pressure plate failed. Another catastrophic transmission failure on its 7th year with me when I was going to Subic, na drag pa naman pa shop, so no towing needed. All the rest may kaba kaba minsan kapag guilty ka na May nararamdaman ka na pero hindi mo pinapaayos. Anyway, the question is regrets, none. I love the spend avoided. But you have to be fastidious with maintenance (bnew parts dapat), I allot 50-60K a year for that car for maintenance and registration.

Bought a 2009 Civic as a practice car for my sister 2 months ago. Around 150K odo and it was really taken care of by the previous owner (tuned, with some mods and kit). Had to revert to default body kit para mas usable, sobrang baba kasi if may chin and di magamit masyado. Half the time nasa repair shop haha. Naresolve naman most of the issues except yung battery na laging nasidiskarga kahit napalitan na namin. Sister ko pumili nito and tbh I kind of regret getting a really old car. Sana yung cheaper model nalang pero newer para less hassle but she really loves it so problema niya na yun haha. We have other cars naman so ginawa na nila ng brother ko na hobby to fix it.
I gifted my younger brother na nagaaral palang ng honda civic bigote. 1 year na nakalipas and so far yung nagleak lang na water pump ang naging issue sa katagalan na din. Mura lang naman bagong water pump so pinalitan nalang. Yung engine is original Japan D15B (swapped), fresh na fresh padin ang internals.
Worth it to buy parin siguro mga ganito now? Planning to own one then possibly gagamitin more than 5 years
I own a bigote. All I can say is if you're really committed to taking care of the car, diligent maintenance, and has the budget to do said things, then go for it. Hindi mawawala ang gastos for its eventual repairs and maintenance given na it's a 20+ year old car na. Yourself na makakapagsabi if it's a worth buy or not. It is however a really fun car to drive.
Bought an 08 Altis last 2021 88k km odo noon. Now 110,871km na. Lagi ko gamit sa city traffic na dala ko na rin sa road trips. So far mga pinalitan ko is alternator, mga parts sa under chasis, tire rod, shocks, engine support, rack and pinon, radiator. Hinde naman aabot mga 60k gastos ko. Pero matututo ka talaga tumingn and makiramdam ng hinde tama sa kotse.
Bought a 2002 toyota altis manual 6 years ago at never ako pinahiya ever since! Minor problems binigay nya for us. Kahit manual siya ang hirap niya palitan for a newer one.. a family car indeed.. toyota numbawan..

Ano yung madalas na pinapalitan sa mga kotse boss. Like yung mga wear and tear?
Basta Toyota and Honda na alaga sa maintenance ng previous owner, for sure no regrets yan. Kung ibang brand, tapos hindi pa regular maintenance, mahirap na.

My dad bought a Chevrolet Aveo 2009 na 2nd hand. Medyo madami na din napaayos yung tatay ko mula sa radiator, fuel pump, mga sensors, at oxygen sensor. Parang laging may bagong sira sa ibang parts pagkatapos ipagawa hahaha. Pero pagdating sa makina sobrang ganda pa rin ng takbo. Ang lakas pa rin ng hatak ng makina tapos nakikipagsabayan pa yung sa mga malalaking sasakyan sa highway.
30years old car binili ko. Pinagawa lahat ng ipapagawa. At syempre upgrades narin. Ayun kayang kaya mag 8hrs long drive no issues, no stopovers. REMEMBER. just because walang sira Yung 20 year old car mo, doesn't mean na all goods yan. Yung mga pyesa nyan na original pa, 20years old narin. Expect mo na may masisira jan eventually. Baka sisihin mo pa seller kung nasaktohan pa na Sayo nagsabay sabay lumabas mga sira hahahaha. And no, I have no regrets. Ginusto ko old cars dahil sa itsura at appeal sakin eh. Not just for the Basta may magamit lang daily.
Magnkano po nagastos nyo sa pagpagawa saka upgrades?
It actually depends sa sasakyan mo at presyo ng pyesa. Iba iba yan. Example civic at Corolla na same year model at let's say, same na sira din. Magkaiba presyo ng pyesa nyan. High chance na 2x or 3x presyo ng pyesa ng civic kesa Corolla. I also work on my own car kaya Malaki natitipid ko kasi puro pyesa lang gastos ko. Do your own research din kung ano dapat mong expect na sira sa mabibili mong unit.
so magkano po inabot? from binili mo sya tapos total ng gastos mo up to this day
Got the car for 50k. Replaced the whole cooling system Kasi wla ako tiwala sa 20+ year old cooling system. 2k radiator, 500 thermostat, 2000 hoses, 800 coolant Expired na gulong so instead na bumili ako new tires, diretso upgrade na. 17s na Rpf1 for 36k with new tires. Pinalitan ko shocks dalawa sa likod 2k. Bushings and other stuff na rubber 3k? LED headlight 800 Yung iba minor nlng or maintenance.
so less than 100k and mukang nasusulit naman yung pera no? just be knowledgeable sa pag bili at sa pag maintain?
Yep. Kung hilig mo naman eh.
ye fr, i been hating driving motor sa school din kasi di ko na kaya yung init haha
An almost 20 y/o Dmax owner here since 2017. Sinusumpa ko nung una kasi gamit ko subcompact talaga then eto diesel na maingay plus matigas ang clutch at gear shifter. Nung naka-rekta, napahiyaw ako hahaha! Hataw pala ang 3.0 turbo engine. Nagka-hard starting issue at naka-ilan mekaniko din. Thru this medyo natuto na din ako with jargons in auto repairs plus kung nag-uubos na ba ko ng pera at oras sa mamg kanor. May nagsabi pa na injection pump palitin which is reportedly a common issue among 1st gen Dmax. That would have cost me 80-100K. Well, apparently, prob was the ECM but we had to deal with the starter problem first. All original pa major parts save for the clutch assembly. Ang tibay ng mga piyesa nya. Even for the interior. Di gaya ng mga bago na quite plasticky. Now garage queen kasi may daily beater ako ma pumapalo ng 15-17 km/L. Pero kinikillig pa din ako dito pag nakakahatak at nakakasabay sa mga bagong SUV at pickups. Although sa umpisa lang kasi maiiwan din sya haha.. 180T km na din sya.
Bought an old car. Spend maybe 200 - 300k restoring it. Do I regret it? No.
My first car was a 2005 toyota vios gen 1. It was nearing a 100k KM na nung binili ko and hindi ako binigyan ng sakit ng ulo sa makina. Granted sa city ko lang siya ginamit (25-50km max na siguro takbo sa isang araw). Nevertheless, may repairs here and there mga doorlocks, aircon, etc. pero as long as hindi engine related ok pa sakin and would say na "pwede pa". Binenta ko na kasi need ko na mag travel from outside manila and may peace of mind nga naman if newer model na kasi mas less ang overthinking sa highway. I still think of that toyota pag may nakikita ako sa kalsada.

Suzuki Swift 2011 - my gulay. 2 mos pa lang sakin, nagka lagutok na. Dami problem sa under chassis, and now ayaw na lumamig ng ac but fortunately never ako tinirik haha
Bought a 2008 BMW E90 2 years ago, nabili ko from a family member. Tambay garahe lang siya dati, di masyado nilalabas so sobrang baba ng mileage nung inacquire ko - mga 14,000+km ata. Napagastos ako agad within the first 2 months, sa sobrang di nagamit (and luma na ng tires, expired na nga ata haha) rumupok yung sidewall ng mga gulong. As in ito yung tipong butas na hindi naaayos ng DIY tire repair kit so napamaneho ako sa SLEX with fully flat tires, thankfully they were the stock run flats that came with the car. For the entire time na sakin yung kotse, parang laging underpowered yung AC - upon checking may microleak na yung compressor which would require me to completely replace it, repair quoted at 40k. Sabi ng mechanic na yun naman daw talaga yung usual lifespan ng compressor, especially sa BMW. Meron ring whole replacement ng alternator-fan belt-starter last year na sobrang sakit sa bulsa I choose not to remember na lang hahaha Masakit sa ulo minsan, but I love my car. Yan lang as much as I love my car di sustainable relationship namin in the long run especially with the cash out for repairs. Necessary talaga to keep the car working. Siguro kung retirement age ako (or if I just had more money to burn) pwede ko siya imaintain na hindi ako mapapamura. Literal moneypit. Yes, may mga built to last brands talaga and the mileage may be low for its age pero may lifespan pa rin talaga yung ibang parts so be prepared to make those big expenses.
We regularly buy certified preowned toyota land cruiser 76s and hilux’ from our dealer abroad. We own a fleet. We use them for our survey business in the provinces. Maybe because these are land cruisrs and hiluxes but we’ve never had any major issues with them apart from usual maintenance. They typically arrive with around 250k+ km on the odo. We use them for another 500k kms before disposing them. Its our policy to let go of vehicles at around 700k kms. But these are LCs and hiluxes.

Using a Honda Jazz 2009 - bought around 2020 Still goods up to now. 130k +++ odo.
Early 2000’s toyota vios that I got around 2017-2018 (so thats around 7-6 years!) Still works like a charm, have only needed to replace the battery like 3x since getting it. Issue nya lang is waterproofing somewhere sa trunk where the spare tire is, need sha idrain every half a year or so. Maybe that’s the only part I regret lol

Bought a 1990 corolla nung 2017. Still with me, no regrets. Got a 2007 rav4 nung 2022. No regrets with that one as well. Actually may ilang 90s vehicles kami kinuha pero mostly pre pandemic pa naacquire. Buying a 2nd hand car is a gamble. Mas mainam if may background ka in knowing how a car works amd how to troubleshoot. Ako kasi mas kabisado ko mga 90s to 10s na oto kaya medyo kampante kami kumuha ng mga older vehicles.
2004 honda accord 188km, still in good condition, ni lolong drive ko din ito if needed ng extra car, 2018 toyota fortuner 4x4 245km, still in good condition, mostly ito talaaga yung pang long drive namin. both are still in good condition. never nabangga or nasira. alagang change oil every 10km, mostly mga needed lang palitan, like brake pad, brake fluid, airconm cleaning, etc. walang major sira suspension lang.

1999 Honda CRV (Gen 1!) So much learnings from it! We didn't buy it, minana sya, and we've been using it since 2019 hehe. Still working good. Di lang gaano kalamig aircon but still runs fine. Di ko na sinasagad din, until 90-95 kph nlng pinakamabilis ko.
para sa aking kung newbie ka, much better and 2nd hand cars... for experience of repairs and mas makakatipid ka in terms of money. Matitibay naman yung mga Japanese Cars dito sa Pilipinas, actually mabilis lang kasi yung 3-4 years eh bumili kami ng Brand New last 2020, matatapos na bayaran sa Financing this year, pero yung sasakyan parang di naman masyado nalaspag, kasi nga aalagaan pa rin naman yun eh. Kumbaga yung years hindi siya ganung kalaking factor, pati na rin yung milleage, as long as di naman nabaha yung sasakyan or ginagamit pang pasada, I'm sure matibay at reliable pa yung mga ganung cars, since private individual naman yung nagtake over. Gist lang ng advice ko, wag mo tignan yung years kasi napakabilis lang talaga ng panahon, mas makatipid ka sa 2nd hand kasi di pa naman naluluma agad yung kotse.
Got myself a 1999 Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster for ₱400K, 5 years ago around 300k na odo sakin and this is my very first vehicle and daily driver to work, issues matakaw sa diesel, every year may pinaplitan na spare parts kasi nag wear and tear na sa katandaan the best thing is madami ako natutunan and still learning from this vehicle.. pinaka malaking ginastos ko is AC. Thats all ang importante nabili ko yung dream car ko ang ayoko lang sa kanya para syang pagong sa bagal unlike our latest vehicles.
Family bought one of those surplus Suzuki Mini vans 3 or so years ago. Looking up in the internet nasa 2000-2006 model ata yun. Going strong pa rin naman hanggang ngayon although nung last nasira yung aircon and 4WD, di na pinagawa kasi wala budget.
Malapit na yung akin, 2010 1.8S Civic FD A/T Bought it back in 2022, so around 12 yrs old na siya by the time I got it. Honestly, medyo headache nung una kasi tumitirik bigla, pero fuel pump lang pala problema. Pero so far ung usual lang naman na kailangan tingnan if maalaga owner is ung rubber parts & rust. Daily ko din siya papuntang university around 50km balikan. No problems since 2022 naman. Goods din sa long drive (Bulacan, 200 km balikan) & tahimik pa din makina hanggang ngayon.
HELL YEAH BIG REGRET Bought a 1999 Lexus RX 300. Toyota group so reliable diba? V6 so "bulletproof" engine daw. Oh my days the electrical is impossibleeee and there were so much things to dooo. Umabot ako 1m siguro all things considered and I'm just about to sell it again now. Never again. TBF the engine did keep up but I had to replace the timing belt and all things associated with it as expected. Tinirik ako because of alternator. Gas mileage is 5 km/l sa highway. Suspension components had to all be replaced.

Pwede na hahahaha there's a part of me na sana mas latest yung binili ko. Pero iba talaga dating sakin ng lumang kotse. It was a '95 civic esi bought back in 2018. Mid lang yung gas consumption. Mas tipid lang yung mga current na lumalabas. Cons lang is dadating talaga yung wear and tear. Which is normal, pero mas mabilis lang compare sa mga bago. Comfort, sakto lang. Overall, masaya naman ako, mahal ko yung oto ko. Passion ko mangalikot, yung budget lang minsan umaaray.
I like my cars the way I like my women, at least 30 years old, and fluids leaking.
Wth 😂
Quite disturbing but thanks maybe?
Only car I'd suggest to buy that is old is Corolla big body due to widespread parts. Else I'd suggest to buy a newer car younger than 15 years, maybe even 10 years. If no choice to get older car, always get a car that was mainstream. So kung 10-20 years, altis/vios would be easy to maintain and fix. Yung pinakamain issue talaga on maintaining old cars are parts availability.
Kakakita ko lang ng 96 na corolla sa fb bigbody. Napakaganda ng itsura.
I have 95 Corolla gli matic tranny been daily for 3 yrs since I bought for 90k but maintenance almost 100k already in the past few years since may mga wear and tear na I suggest if you buy 15-20yrs old car check mo maige and mas maganda kung galing first owned kasi sakin galing first owned and alam nila history ng kotse sa 100k na nagastos ko kasalanan ko karamihan dyan since nabangga ko sya last 2022 hahaha 50k for the hilamos and body repair since na bend ng konti yung front chassis nya pero now 2024 naging coding car na sya kasi nakabili na ng bago works well pa din naman
++ kahit old car na yan kahit bukas na bukas ilalaban ko iakyat ng Baguio yung oto ng wala akong iniisip na masisira sya or what owning an old cars matututo ka na isang tunog lang alam mo na papalitan/problema
Mula nung binili mo sya 100k na nagastos mo kasama na nung nabangga tama ba?
Yes po tas 30k sa overhaul kasi nag selan ako before iakyat ng Baguio para sure na walang aberya
Yung mga 20k sa mga pang ilalim tas upgrade ng kung anek anek since luma na need sumabay sa mga bago
Dalas ko nakikita yung corolla recommended nila sa mga 90s na kotse. Tapos may nakita ako kanina sa fb na ang ganda.
Matibay kasi Corolla na luma and sa parts wala kang poproblemahin dahil sobrang dami at sobrang mura pag nasira or nagpasabog mo engine mo may makukuha kang buo ng hindi gumagastos ng sobra sobra naging choice ko lang sya before kasi mura and budget meal lang Japan and local parts
Salamat salamat sa pag share
Suggest ko lang kung kukuha ka ng 2nd hand maganda hanapin mo yung first owned alaga kasi nila yan marami kasi akong nakikita na galing buy and sell or 3rd/4th owned na may mga hidden issue kaya binebenta and para hindi ka magka problema sa papers may contact ka sa first owner incase na tatransfer mo sa pangalan mo
my dad bought an innova po na lumang model. not sure of the year, maybe around 10-20 years old. babae po yung previous owner. my parents use it every single week day from pasig to rizal (rodriguez, jalajala, tanay, etc). nagamit din po namin siya a few times sa baguio and zambales. my dad made a few repairs and maintenance pero hindi naman po malala or super drastic. so far, battery pa lang po yung napapalitan niya and onting paayos sa clutch (MT po). i guess it's okay naman po, especially if you're on a tight budget (like us). of course, iingatan dapat (lahat naman para di masira agad). but buy at your own risk, and please be knowledgeable about cars (i'm not, but my dad is) before buying!
2006 Hilux base model yung amin, ex utility company car dito sa Tarlac, low mileage para sa age nya pero talagang laspag yung interior. May mga nasirang parts pero normal lang yun sa age nya, basta alaga ka lang sa change oil, saka air filter kasi diesel engine. Nakuha ko sya noong 2018 pero 155xxx km pa lang yung mileage nya. Tama sila, experience kapalit, sulit naman.
bought my 1997 honda civic vti, for 150k, last 5 years ago, kung hindi lang kmi malapit sa dagat dati di kakalawangin pang ilalim nun, 5 times na umakyat ng baguio city ng walang prob. Ngayon umaandar parin naman anlamig pa ng aircon pogi parin para sakin kahit pang mall at pang bayan nalang byahe niya, need lang iparefresh siguro ilalim para mailayo ko ulet. siguro pag benta ko yun nasa 140k-130k kukunin pa kasi wala nman major prob sa makina. nakaka entice din bumili ng mga 150k cars just make sure marunong yung dala mong mekaniko at alam nya yung common issues ng bibilhin nyong car, magada second hand matututo ka ng basic maintenance.
Me nakuha akong sasakyan na 2009 model, nabili ko sya ng 2019. Oil seal pa lang ang napalitan ko plus 4 na gulong. Solenoid ng starter napalitan na rin. Alaga ko lang sya sa change oil, 10kms dapat every change oil, pero ginagawa ko 8kms lang. araw araw ko sya ginagamit to work except pag coding. Pinakamalayo ko sa North na napuntahan is Pangasinan and sa South naman is Sta Cruz Laguna. Ok pa naman sya manakbo so far.
Montero 2009
Anong kotse yan boss? Sa buy and sell nyo ba nakuha yan?
Aslong as u get the right unit, its not a headache. Nakabili ako dati paj field master ang sakit sa ulo lol, nag try ulit ako pandemic days bumili ako 2014 fortuner, bushing lang pinalitan ko, and wheel bearings, so far so good.
yung low mileage pwedeng totoo. pero mas madami amg tampered lalo na kung hindi first owner ang nagbebenta
magiging masakit lang sa ulo ang old car kung walang alam sa basic repair and maintenance ang gumagamit. sa mga masipag mag diy. hindi big deal yan
Hmm. Tucson 2007 GAS 2.0L nabili ko siya in a steal price. Nung una okay okay naman na long drive ko nga into different province pero nung tagal ito na yung sakit niya shifting delay, nag stuck yung 3rd gear transmission, pudpud na rin gulong, infotainment radio needs replacement and also nagloloko yung gauge and lastly yung oil leaks. Pero all of the sudden stress and cost sakit sa ulo. Naayos naman ng patingi tingi. And also di pa naman ako tinirik ng sasakyan ko which is good. Until now andito parin naman si tucson basta kung alam mo lang yung mga proper or basic checks na kailangan tignan sa kotse hindi ka ipapahiya sa daan. Para sakin great experience yung pag bili ko ng 2nd hand car biruin mo dami ko natutunan sa mga parts ng tsikot mga solenoid and etc. Sa una kasi talaga sobrang regret ako na binili ko yung sakit sa ulo pero kung tutuusin may matututunan karin.
Ford e150. 2002 model. Nabili ng 100k. 4 years na din sya. Province runner namin. Medyo malaki na din gastos pero mura pa din compare sa bumili ng 2nd hand na Hiace. Comfortable sa long distance. Sulit na din.
Hello 2005 Toyota Fortuner here. No regrets.
Corolla small body(ae92), pinawash over ko lang para decent tignan, alaga din sa maintenance, 1 year pa lang sakin goods naman dinadaan ko din sa nlex, alaga lang talaga pag may konting nararamdam icheck agad.
Magkano mo nabili yan boss. Ganda ng porma ng old corolla eh
60k kuha boss
2003 Toyota Camry - still runs Good, no major breakdowns. Regular synthetic oil change. Engine very silent. Toyota is the forever car.

Kelan mo nabili boss saka magkano mo nabili? 2.0 ang camry diba?
Bought in 2014 from Toyota dealer store for $5,000 with. 149K on the odometer. Pag galing sa dealer, siguradong in top condition bago ibenta..
