Is Corolla Really Meant For Taxi Drivers? by weyreypey: 10:07pm On Jun 28, 2021
Why do people always flag down Corolla when passing.... Some say it's expensive...yes all taxis are expensive..... Nissan Micra, Almera, golf 3, etc all used for transportation are all expensive.

Can't shake that feeling of seeing a taxi in all Corollas

when I call you and that chicken headed boy Google mechanics wannabes, you'd cry foul..

undecided

What concerns this list when it comes to the Nigerian Market undecided

Both the Honda civic and Toyota prius is what most car owners would term as luxury here in Nigeria, so that list is shitty, and DOES NOT IN ANY WAY have any relationship with the Nigerian automobile market....
Again, it doesn't change the fact that the corolla is a shitty match box with bland interior, crappy all rounder and is mostly used as an ehailing taxi by Bolt and Uber drivers....
Ya'll folks will just be running to Google over every small topic.
You are the jobless one here negro.

Yawn

As I told another random nonentity who tried his very best to get me to engage with him, just like you are, to distract from the joke his life has become, I simply don't consider you significant enough to waste any time on

You only get this response, so use it wisely

I don't know you, I don't care about you or anything concerning you, if you like to fool around and you need people to fool around with, I'm afraid I can be of no assistance

So you're entirely free to keep jumping around like a rabid animal, it concerns me just about as much as a stray dog on the road would concern me

Quote my posts all you want, I will simply ignore you, because you're not worthy of my time, which I've spent far too much of already, with this response

You know there is an adage that says until people criticize you and bad mouth you, you have not achieved your aim.

You criticizing Corolla means you have noticed it and you envy it, driving a Corolla doesn't make you poor or categorized one as a low life, it only means one made the right choice as Corolla is the best selling vehicle in the world right now.

I come in peace

Your rust bucket old cargo can't handle a Corolla, engine would knock if you attempt to push it pass 120km/h where as the Corolla would dust you comfortably without breaking a sweat, it's lighter, has better power to weight ratio, it is quicker than your rust bucket too, the only thing you have going for you is top speed and you forefeit that since the day you fed your engine 20w50 from ammasco.

Go buy a Corolla and rest atleast you would stop begging students for push to start after lectures grin
