Hi guys,

Looking to buy my first car and was wondering if you had any suggestions:
-My budget is around 800k-1m
-Just a personal car for city driving and occasional long trips
-Is it advisable to get a loan from a bank?
-If I buy second-hand, what should I be looking for?

Thanks!
What did you get na sir?

Dont go with China Cars. Masyado pang bata in the ph. After sales might not be good yet.

2nd hand is way more cheaper, but u need to see if yung owner is alaga nya and personal use , once you find out na buy and sell sya wag ka matakot umatras kasi karamihan sa buy n sell is may hidden issue talaga , unless ka close mo yung buy n sell. pero need mo talaga ng mechanic and dapat trusted din .kasi pwede bigyan si mechanic ng lagay para pilitin ka bilhin yung uni
Agree sir. Nice.

dapat kakilala mo (if ever) yung mechanic na isasama mo to check yung car na bibilhin mo,

agree ako kay sir na minsan lalapitan at bubulungan yung mechanic para bigayan ng lagay para mabili lng yung unit.

Mas roadworthy yung mga units until 2015 para walang sakit sa ulo if ever makuha mo pero much better din ipacheck din sa garage or kasa just to check mga hidden issue di nakita ng mechanic nun na check nyo yung unit.
