remember 1 thing, Filipinos rarely sell anything unless it has a problem.  Better chances buying from a foreigner but even then u probably wont get the whole truth.  I am retired auto guy and a nice german fella told me of his van that was totally gone thru and was good as new, only for me to quickly find it  needed a waterpump, fuel pressure regulator, and several other things, so u got to just either be a tech or spend a few bucks and have it checked out  at a shop.  (keep the seller away from who is checking it if u want the truth).
Yep a toyota, honda, nissan,  hyundai,is ur best bets here. No China junk of course but u already know that right?    lol    good luck
