Tanong lang po, nasa 6,000 km na ride ko and meron pa rin akong naamoy na parang oil na nasusunog or belt everytime mag aarangkada ako? Does anyone experienced this?

Go for a Suzuki Swift.

Smoother and quieter ride and decent engine response since it is equipped with a 4 cylinder 16 valve DOHC engine.

Stylish interior and exterior hands down.

In my experience, parts are not difficult to get. Fuel consumption with a really heavy foot is around 11-13km/L if i drive conservatively, its 14-15km/L both in city. For highway, heavy foot driving is around 16-17km/L if you baby it, you can probably get 21km/L but the best i've gotten so far is 19km/L with my most recent trip from south cotabato to davao city

Thank you sir. Any recommendation on what model to get? We are planning on buying a second hand car with 250-280k budget. Saw a few posted from 2007-2009 model for our budget.

Light foot driving lang pala. Very decent lalo na kung average mo is 20 km/L. But if you do 15 km/L on the highway at that speed, that's just about the same as other cars with bigger engines (1.5L to 1.8L).

Those year models have the most parts available I think. I have a 2017 model. The consumption will be different since the 2007-2009 swifts had larger engines. I honestly do not know much about the long term of those models but I do know they are reliable and very fun to drive. I've seen those model years used as rally cars in New Zealand, its probably safe to assume they're reliable.
