One of the city’s trusted dealers of preowned cars trusts Philkotse.
As an online platform for buying and selling cars, Philkotse ensures that all transactions go smoothly. Prospective buyers can easily take their pick from a selection of both brand-new and preowned units that fit their budget, thanks to Philkotse’s roster of accredited partner-dealers.
All Cars Manila carries a wide selection of pre-owned cars for buyers
One of these partners is All Cars Manila, a dealer of quality preowned vehicles which started operations in 2002. According to Stephen Que, one of All Cars’ business partners, their current inventory comprises some 50 to 60 cars. “Majority ng cars namin are Japanese cars talaga, pero nagkakaroon din kami ng…European cars.”
(Majority of our cars are really from the Japanese brands, but occasionally we get European cars, too)
Asked about their process in selling preowned vehicles, Que shares that All Cars meticulously checks all cars that are turned over to them, especially for signs of previous damage.

“Chine-check namin kung ito ba’y may history of accident or history ng flood, bale ‘yan yung mga hindi namin kinukuha o binibili,” he says, adding that All Cars acts as a trade-in partner for brand-new car dealers. ”Walang history of accident, walang history of (being) flooded, and importantly, yung documents, malinis at maayos.”
(We check if the cars have a history of accidents or being immersed in flood, because those are what we don’t take. We make sure that a car has no history of accidents, no history of being flooded, and has all its papers in order).
He notes that they also check if the previous owner has made warranty or insurance claims for the car, taking pride in the fact that they can detect hidden damage even if the vehicle looks pristine on the outside. The company implements a policy of fast approval and one-day release, to meet its clients discriminating requirements.

Has business been good so far for All Cars Manila, even despite the pandemic? Que answers in the affirmative, and credits Philkotse for the uptick in sales.
“May tumawag sa aking Marketing nila. To be honest, iisa lang ang platform ko noon before sa selling. Sabi ko, ‘Why not try Philkotse?’,” he says. “Ayun, nung tinry ko, nag-sign ako ng contract, nag-improve yung selling ko, gumanda.”
(Someone called me from their Marketing team. To be honest, I only had one platform for sales back then. I thought, ‘Why not try Philkotse?’, so when I signed a contract with them, my sales improved)
Que credits the sales boost to the quality of Philkotse’s leads. “Kung may ten (cars sold) ako diyan, more than 50 percent, kay Philkotse ‘yan.” (If I have ten cars sold through All Cars, more than 50 percent of those are from Philkotse)
What are the other advantages that Que feels Philkotse brings to All Cars? “May magte-text sa iyo kung may inquiry ka. Pati yung number kasama, so pwede mong balikan. Kunwari ma-miss mo man yung inquiry sa online, pwede mo silang balikan through text, kasi may number nila na nilalagay eh.”
Que says that All Cars meticulously checks every vehicle for signs of damage
(You’ll get a text message asking if you’ve gotten an inquiry, complete with the contact number that you can use. In case you miss the online inquiry, you can still text back through the number provided)
He says that Philkotse’s rates are reasonable as well. “Affordable naman siya, kasi yung return naman sa iyo, times ten naman yan eh, kung may mabenta kang kotse.” (They’re affordable, and with every car sold, the returns are tenfold)
Having tried advertising on other online platforms for his business,Que says only Philkotse has yielded the results he wanted. “Kung ako ang tatanungin niyo, we are very aggressive in selling talaga. Lahat ng platforms na-try ko na, pero ito nga, si Philkotse, yung leads niya, quality,” he beams. “Ang laking improvement ng selling ko.”
(If you ask me, we are very aggressive in selling. I’ve tried other platforms, but only Philkotse has delivered quality leads. My sales have seen a significant improvement)
All Cars Manila credits Philkotse for its increased sales
Moreover, Que also likes how Philkotse values relationships beyond what money can buy. “Hindi lang siya puro business eh. They build relationships. May friendship na kasama, yun ang maganda.” (It’s not just all business. They build relationships. Friendships are nurtured, and that’s good)
“Kunwari may problema ako sa Philkotse, tinutulungan nila ako. Alam ko tinatawag pa nila yan sa head office, lalo na pag may problema ako sa mga postings ko.” (If I approach Philkotse with a problem, they help me out. Even to the point of calling the head office, especially when I see a problem with my postings)
As far as Stephen Que, business partner for All Cars Manila, is concerned, Philkotse.com has consistently delivered even beyond the call of business.
