Budget is 600-700k for Tokunbo.

Looking at low maintenance cost and low robbery risk,what's the best car to buy of these:

Toyota Camry 2002 or Honda Accord 2002 or Mitsubishi Galant 2002.
Will the budget be ok for Tokunbo of these cars?

Suggestions needed.Thanks.

With your budget, you must be a joker. Though nothing is impossible at OLX.

You dont need that much to buy any of the listed cars, you can get clean 02 Camry for N1.2m and either of 02 Accord/ 02 Mitsubishi Gallant for 800k.

I agree with you @ chucky234 Op didn't specify if the vehicles are manual or automatic because automatic is expensive than manual.

Security in what sense? Do you mean in terms of security features of the car or the ones that are more prone to be stolen? If its the latter why bother yourself about what kind of car is susceptible to being stolen? If you are then go for a golf2 thereby taking away evil eyes. Besides, there is no car that isnt susceptible to be being stolen. Dont use this kind of mentality to buy a car.

With a budget of 800K you'd be able to get for yourself a Toyota Camry, 99 Model. It's economical and quite easy to maintain with readily affordable parts!.
