Hi house,
Sorry for your time

I really need advice on what car to buy as I'm not really too knowledgeable on certain things as regards car issue.

My max budget is 1.7million and I'm looking for cars from 2008 upwards.

Keypoints I'm looking for are: good fuel economy, not too expensive parts, and durabilty as I would be using it on Lagos roads.

Presently I'm eyeing a yaris, matrix or the camry...however I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks much in advance for ur intelligent responses

Word of Advise -

To PROPERLY clear a 2008 vehicle (THRU LAGOS) will be about N700k. That does not include trucking&shipping from the US of about N200k. So it will be HARD if not impossible to get a 2008 with remaining money.

However you can be LUCKY is the seller has the car before all the hike in clearing cost.

But a newly imported Tokunbo will either be accidented or the duty is not fully paid.

Its hard to argue with numbers. You can lie about numbers but numbers in itself is as objective as they come. I am just throwing out the numbers and you can do your due diligence and make ur decision.

You are better off finding a nice Naija used or adding more money if you ask me.

Good luck in your search.

Thanks for d analysis...however I'm not looking at pre-order from abroad.

Will the said amount (1.7) not get a toks yaris or matrix from cotonu a dese models are not on the high side?

If NO,

Then I'll keep saving to break the 2mil barrier.

Thanks

I am not asking you to pre-order. What i am telling you is that A PROPERLY CLEARED TOKS WILL NOT FLY FOR YOUR BUDGET. Whether you pre-order or not, clearing is clearing.

Look into Cotonue option, but there is a highly likelihood that the full payment is not made. Just that you know.
