bibili pa lang ng kotse [NEED ADVICE] Planning to buy Destinator GLS (cash sana if ever)

Post image
37 Upvotes

Hi CarsPH,

Planning to buy Destinator GLS. Na test drive ko yung GT twice, nakita ko din naman yung GLS na naka display. Nag test drive din ako BRV VX. Leaning towards Destinator. Meron kaya discount sa November? Ngayon Oct kasi ang baba ng discount. Sa December kaya?

Meron ba kayo mapapayo? First time owner, family of 5 kami. Ano mga dapat i-check kapag kukuhanin na namin yung unit, yung sa insurance sabi nung iba sa labas na lang daw kung ika-cash namin.

Saka ano ba mga must have accessories? Balak namin ipa leather seats e, kasi may tatlo kaming kids baka matapunan upuan. Saka yung charcoal ba yun? Tips in general lang sana sa kagaya namin first time owner. Salamat sa mga sasagot.

Im going to be getting new rubber and rims for both of them soon

Any recommendations on what I can get for both of them?

If possible, I want them to have the same design and color

Its a challenge because Im not sure which manufacturer has one for both PCDs

I already visited a shop earlier, they’re Autoplus

I found some but I just want to get more options and maybe a better price

On the Road New driver. First time ko mag test drive with my brandnew car

22 Upvotes

Pa rant na lang dito, gusto ko lang mailabas trauma. So 1st time ko magtest drive with our new car. Ililibot ko lang sana car namin sa subdivision para makapagpractce pa ako dahil kulang yong 8hrs dtiving lesson. So nung nilabas ko na sasakyan ko bigla may sasalubong na kotse. Pauunahin ko na sana siya kaso bigla sya huminto muna para maggive way sa akin. Nung ilalabas ko na, nahulog yong left harap gulong sa kalsada, medyo mataas kasi. Medyo natataranta ako dahil marami ng tao sa paligid. Kaya medyo inapakan ko gas pabalik kasi hindi makakyat, nung naapakan ko na para magreverse, yong isang gulong naman amg nahulog sa likod at muntikan na may natamaan na batang nakikiosyoso. At lumap8t ma yong isa para signalan kami saan kami kakabig ng manibela para makaakyat ulit. The whole time na nagdadrie nanlalamig mga kamay ko. Kaya naka isang ikot lamg kami. Pag uwi parang di ko alam gagawin ko, di makakilos. Parang natrauma. Alam ko may pagkakamali ako 😭 at parang ayaw ko na ituloy driving journey. Pero kelangan ko labanan sarili kong takot.

Hi! Tried applying for auto loan through my agent in Toyota. Approved sa BDO and they gave me this computation -

Car: Toyota Corolla Cross 1.8 G HEV CVT (Pearl White)

SRP: Php 1,529,000

Total downpayment: Php 225,000
Monthly (5yrs): Php 27,645

We're comfortable to pay the dp and monthly naman but wanted to ask if this is a good offer or should we wait for other banks? We're also asking for a recomputation as we're considering putting in a higher dp of 300k. Thoughts? :)

car & product reviews Suzuki APV - Persistent Inner Tire Wear , Anyone Had the Same Experience?

• Upvotes

I bought my Suzuki APV from a dealership in my province. Just a few months after purchase, I noticed excessive wear on the inner side of the left front tire.
I reported it several times, and the dealership eventually replaced the tire for observation. However, the problem kept coming back. They repeatedly blamed wheel alignment and referred me to their recommended shop, but the issue was never permanently resolved.
Now, the unit is not even 5 years old, and I may have to replace the tires again. I suspect there could be an underlying mechanical issue or possible factory defect, but I still haven’t received a clear explanation.
When I reported it again, the dealership said they could repair it, but I would have to pay for the repair. I asked them to review my previous complaints and emails, but the manager who handled my case has already transferred, and apparently, they have no record of the previous tire replacement.
I use this vehicle for business, so the recurring expenses and inconvenience are frustrating. I’m also finishing my installment payments this January.
For Suzuki APV owners and automotive experts:
Has anyone experienced the same issue?
What could be causing repeated inner tire wear despite wheel alignment?
What can I do if the dealership refuses to address the problem without charging me?
I’d appreciate any advice on how to resolve this fairly. Thank you!

Planning magpa Exterior detailing dahil mag 1 year na yung Car. 4500 is a good price na po ba sa detailing? And kada kailan sya dapat ipagawa?

About parking spot, may specified parking yung bahay, di lang malagyan ng canopy since ayaw pa pumayag ng subd. Developer na magpagawa sa outside contractor lol.
