Just as the title says, what's the most reliable car you've ever owned or currently own?

Lol, I know exactly how you feel.
Keep em coming guys.
This should be interesting

It's my 1967 Austin Mini Moke. I have other cars but they all have electronic control. With my Mini I can fix practically any mishap with a screwdriver and some bandaid  

MEN IT WAS A TOYOTA COROLLA HATCH BACK. EVER FAITHFUL, EVER DUTIFUL, NEVER BREAK DOWN.EVEN WHEN THE STEERING STRONG PASS MOLUE OWN, E DEY GO ANYWHERE. EVEN WHEN THE SHOCKS DON NEARLY SPOIL FINISH. NA SO E DEY BOUNCE DEY GO FOR 3RD MAINLAND. REST IN PEACE WHEREVER YOU ARE.

nissan altima gxe 1994. put 37,000 miles on it. and in that time only changed the alternator, shock sensor and battery and exhaust. bought at 85000 miles, sold at 122,000 miles. drove like it was brand new.

we are in love with honda accord in our family. from 96 to 2010 model

That's my new baby, Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is the second fastest car in the world and the most powerful, it can easily pass as a super hero`s car like Batman. It has the fastest acceleration speed, reaching 60 mph in 2.5 seconds.

Endowed with a 8.0L W16-Cylinder, four turbochargers, and a dual-clutch DSG computer-controlled manual transmission, the Veyron can reach a top speed of 253 mph. Counting a sum of 10 radiators, for the engine cooling system, for transmission oil, a heat exchanger for the air to liquid intercoolers, for engine oil etc., the car has a power to weight ratio of 529 bhp/tonne.

It's quite cheap though but the most expensive amongst my lot, if I can remember I paid $2,400,000 for her late last year

I think you missed this part, "What's The Most Reliable Car You've Ever Owned?"

1987 Toyota Camry. mehn that car strong die. when i dey use that car, even BMW go dey stuggle to pass me for I-495. there was a time that i went for oil change and the mechanic looked at me shockingly and said "there's no freaking oil in this thing ." if it were another car, the engine would have packed up long ago.
But i am not totally surprised at the toyota's performance becos i learnt that the japanese were on their A game during the 80s and that American carmakers dismantled toyota cars to find out the secret of the japanese. that's how reliable and strong those japanese cars were back then, i don't know about now since things have gone electrical and mechanics are nolstagic about the old days.

Oh my mkII jetta. For the over 3years, didnt spend more than 30k on that car on maintenance. Only God knows what happened to volkswagen these days, the mk4's and mk5's are shit.

My background is Plant and Engine Reliability so you can call me a Reliability Engineer, I understand what Reliable is . My Bugatti has never visited a garage and is not designed to visit a garage until her end of service life which is 87 years

Mine was a Mitsubishi Colt.Ol boy I've never seen a car more reliable.I travelled the length & breath of Naija & any time I put in the key,it was a one time response.Eventually,I had to sell it when I grew too tall for the full recline

And that explains it, you missed this part "What's The Most Reliable Car You've Ever Owned?" (not a manufacturing plant or dam).

Carry on.

Easy Tiger, you can put your oars back in the water. We're just chatting on a forum on a lazy Saturday afternoon not WWIII.

Why is it that people here will always look for trouble? Why can't you face your own face and leave others alone? the question is clear and simple 'What's The Most Reliable Car You've Ever Owned?' no one said you should challenge anyone's post so why did you challenge me? I never talk you don begin call me names (Tiger) well I will let you go for now but next time you will surely have yourself to blame!

I can hardly wait.

PS: It's amazing how many websites have this same picture of "your" car

seal777:

The most reliable car i had ever used is a 1999 Toyota Camry LE V6, Considering the fact that i am a hustling guy who moves around so often, The car served me with utmost loyalty even though i bought it a Nigerian used.

Its my trusted travel partner, never stopped me on the way though i never stop taking very good car of it anyway.

I added almost 12, 000 in mileage on it within a year before i sold it off.

I cherish the car so much and missed every bit of its absence. 

Hm, seel. So that ride's gone. I recall you changed the engine about this time last year.

I can hardly wait.

Somorin or Sorinam or what do you call yourself? what is your beef with Yoru_igbo? must you reply people? you posted you junk car and no one challenged you only for you to challenge someone for posting a decent car abi is it because you can't afford it?
I understand your anger but chill and only hope that God will open your way one day and deliver you from Suffer head

PEUGEOT 404







That's Nigeria's baby, Peugeot 404; it is the second strongest car in the 20th century and the most powerful, it can easily pass as a super hero`s car like Batman. It has the fastest acceleration speed, reaching 60 mph in 2000.5 seconds. It can easily transport 2000lbs of plantain from Agboju to Ijesa tedo market in one trip @ 33mpg.

Endowed with a 4.0L W6-Cylinder, four turbochargers, and a muscle controlled manual transmission, the 404 can reach a top speed of 53 mph and can last up to 40 years. The last one I saw had over 4m miles on it and is still going strong. When will the French build something like that again?.

Mitsubishi Endevor, insanely reliable and beautiful too.  we litterally did not do ANYTHING to this car. except oil changes etc.

NorthSea:

Well I had to register just to reply you! I usually read stuff here and laugh off but when I see people like you here I get really pissed off just behave and respect yourself shikena!

It is true the price of technology has come way down.

NorthSea:

yeah cars that age usually have leaks in the engine. you have to top it up every 4 days with engine oil 5w 30 pennzoil or castrol for these type of old cars. only the best will suffice.

I feel you  Infact my granpapa get the 404 why I love her is the noise resemble casava grinder 

This beetle volks taught me how to drive. Ever dependable.

Funny enough mine was a KIA because it was brand new and I only used it for one year , Now my 2006 Honda Civic is making me go crazy every now and then its Toks  

Its a Bi-Pedal Classic
Zero fueling cost and maintanance free and parking was and still never is a problem.
My God-given LEGGEDY-BENZ

Mine was my honda civic (honda bullet) 94-95 model. Testament to the fact of it's great service through out the 2 years I used it is that there never was a day I had to abandon the car at home because it refused to start. Repairs were always minor issues, never had a serious engine flaw.

Nissan Bluebird '86 model, liftback. Acquired 9yrs after registered owner. It gave me comfort @ schl den, never coughed wen I was broke. Outside servicing, I hardly spent on it. N500 fuel to n from lagos-Ijebu Ode, N700 Ibadan. Bought anoda after dat. Love dat machine. Buyers of d 2 still enjoy dem.
