How to use this guide
The model with the most listings isn't necessarily the best for you. But it means more supply to choose from and easier resale when you upgrade.
If you're between two ranges, remember: bumping up ₲30-50M of budget can bring you a much better car. Bumping down ₲30-50M is also an option if you want lower payments.
Always check: paperwork in the seller's name, verifiable mileage, maintenance history. The gap between a good and a bad deal within the same price is huge.
