Sir, I also intend getting a clean golf 3. 1.8L as a first car because I was told its cheap to maintain. But experts have been warning me to stay clear of VW as a first car because I would regret it. They claim our mechanics can't work on the golf 3, they instead appeal to me to get a 2000 toyota carina E or a 2000 toyota avensis. But I still prefer the golf 3 because it looks firmer on the road. I need your suggestion please.

Golf 3 1.8L engine....good budget car.

Anybody advertising that car for this price is a dubious individual I doubt if a Nigerian used would even be sold for that price.

A robbers den! No to the Camry!... Rough roads... No to Honda either accord or discord.... Distance. And holdups a car with good fuel economy n rugged to take charge of the road...
Golf 3 1.8L engine seems ideal! In fact your money will get a super clean toks and the mechanics are everywhere...the parts r also cheap...
Previa not easy to work on due to engine location
Abosolutely spot on! Go for the specified Golf 3!

Hmmm...it also looks firmer in the workshop. Bro...consider what it takes for it to be on the road... you would be a new driver with absolutely no knowledge of maintaining let alone repairing a car. Forget about looks.

Lol @ "it also looks firmer in the workshop". Quite funny. Thanks. I would go for the 2000 toyota carina E 1.8L or the 2000 toyota avensis 1.8L due to popular opinion. That should be a wise decision right?
