Advice Needed!!! by Nobody: 9:18am On Feb 07, 2016 |
Good Morning all, I intend to buy a Nigerian used car/suv by the end of this year, and I can't seem to make up my mind on the brand. I'm looking at the following: Toyota Solara (either of the 2 models) Honda EOD (or the coupé) Nissan Xterra (2004 model, the one with round headlamps) Volkswagen Golf 4 or 5 I work on the Island and live in the mainland. This is a car I'd be using EVERYDAY. In terms of cost of maintenance, fuel efficiency and economy, which is the best to purchase? The roads I ply aren't so bad. The reason I mentioned SUV is because I'm pretty small (5ft3), and even in a baby boy, I can't see beyond the steering, I have to sit on a pillow. SUVs are high, so I'll have a clear view. Thank you |

It's either an suv or a car. Putting both in the mix makes any form of advice difficult. Not knowing if you need a high clearance suv, simply because Ambode, Fashola and Tinubu, have refused to repair and maintain all our roads in almost 17 years? I would opt for a car if ground clearance issues are not an option (EOD) and the Nissan if clearance needed. Toyota is the boys of the underground, favourite quick cash cow!!! 2 Likes |

IamDelilah: If you need something as an everyday use I would suggest you go for a rav4. Year model is whati can't advice on cos your pocket would determine that. For you to keep your car moving and not the other way round. Maintenance play a key role. Good luck in your search 1 Like |

the type of road conditions ply every day would help in deciding the right vehicle for the job. You might need a chevy avalanche in some extreme cases. |
