If you want my personal opinion on Peugeot cars, I will give you that. But if you want a general opinion on Peugeot cars or Peugeot vs Toyota cars, then I am not sure I can help you on that. I don't see cars as how my colleagues, neighbors, friends, loved ones or the world do. I see cars as Ikenna personal do, based on my personal experiences and knowledge I have on them, for the ones I do know of.

Ok, i actually want to know by comparisons which should be a better pick for a lady. I don't know much about cars, i just hear people say Toyota cars are good for Nigerian roads, they're durable and their parts are affordable. The other guy asked for a car within the price range of 700 to 1.4m and u advised him to go for Peugeot. Luckily, that's my budget too! So now i don't know which to pick. Is it that I can't find a good Toyota car within that range or that Peugeot is better? Sorry, if my questions sound somehow but i'm just confused and i don't want to make any mistake in my selection

This reminds me when my sister came to me, to help her choose a car to buy. While listing out cars, I mentioned Toyota xyz. Before I could finished, she was like, "Excuse me!" Lol! Do you get it now?

So, it depends on you. Most ladies would choose what everyone drives, but few would be like, "I don't want this, I want that!" And my sister is truly enjoying what she ended up with, with my guidance. Funny enough, the car has been very faithful to her. Never let her stranded or cost her fortune to keep on the road.

So, again, do you still want me to talk about how to live a boring live behind the wheel or you want me to talk to you about how to live a good life behind the wheel and become a Lioness while at it? cheesy

My brother stick to 32psi. Mine is even different cos we fight all the time I have my own guage so I double check. My front wheels are 28psi while back is 32psi we fight all the time. If you have a burst tyre they won't come to your rescue neither do they know more than the manufacturers.

Guys, I just got a toyota highlander 2004 barely 5 months ago. I'm having this issue of temperature rise most especially when using A/C.

I was advised to remove the thermostat and even change the coolant which i did but the issue still persist.

Any other suggestion from someone who use this car will be welcome.

Thanks.

How attractive is a 2004 2-door Honda Accord?
I want to sell mine but not sure what sort of money i can get for it. I hear most people talk about the fact it's a 2-door makes it in less demand. is this true? If so, what price range can one sell it for? All things being equal. Would appreciate some feedback, Thanks!

There is someone out there looking for a 2 door if it is well maintained and looks clean should fetch good money.
