Please Advice On Car To Buy by TheRealGEJ: 9:59am On Aug 28, 2015
I want to buy a car and I need your help on choices base on the following criteria;
Reliablilty
Cheap cost of maintenance
Low fuel consumption
Availability of parts
Either V6 or V4
A car that would let you save and won't visit the mechanic regularly (I heared some car won't let you save a dine lolz)
I'm considering Toyota Camry 2.4 or Toyota Corolla 2004 or 2005. Any other choice or your advice base on the above will be appreciated.

Toyota Corolla is your best choice here because it's consume less fuel and give you more mileage and also easy to maintain. parts availability very plenty.

Note: This does not mean other vehicles are not reliable in terms of the above quality, all cars need regular maintainance in other to stay healthy and serve you well. If you keep up with the rules of vehicle usage and maintenance, trust me your vehicle won't have any business with staying at the mechanic workshop save for routine maintenance and oil change.

if u r sticking with corrola, I don't think corrola has a V6 engine variant in all its models.
rather engine sizes 1.6l, 1.8l etc

bt corrola will work magic for u o

Thanks bro. So the engine size of 1.8l should be better than the one of 1.6l right ?

not really, it's kind of relative when you say beta, for instance 1.8l has more power compared to d 1.6l bt more fuel will be needed.
if I were in ur shoes, would go for the 1.8l

Get an BMW E36 3-series 325i or 328i years(1991-1999); Popularly called 'Coja' in Nigeria. It's one of the strongest, most reliable, affordable to maintain & pure fun oriented 2/4-doors budget 1st car you can buy in 2015.

More facts for your consumption: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_3_Series_(E36)

What's your budget by the way ?

Hyundai elantra 09 is also a good option.
