Which Car Is The Most Stolen In Nigeria? by nusdog: 3:08pm On Oct 26, 2011 |
I've been making some observation of late on stolen cars and I come to discover that car thieves prefer and snatch some brands of vehicles more. My guess: the most stolen car in Nigeria is Toyota Camry. 2 Likes |

Generally Japanese series: Toyota of all brands particularly the types that Nigerians rush at e.g Camry, Corolla, Avensis and now Highlander SUVs. The next types stolen are the Accord series. The reasons are simple these guys know that there is ready made market for any of these vehicles because according to our people they have second hand value. I still wonder why Nigerians run away from highly rugged German series viz Benz and BMW and the highly secured and equally rugged Volvo series. As for me o, any vehicle that i will ride and i will be bearing my service pistol all the time i run away from them like lepers no matter the amount of favourable Nigerian stereotypes about them. The sum up of my story is that i buy any car available in Naija market in as much as the tokunbo parts are readily available and there are good mechanics, finis. 2 Likes |

Hmm interesting So im guessing the best cars to bring down to drive in Naija would be American brands like Chrysler,Ford,Chevrolet,Cadillac, nobody would steal them.Probably just have to bring a container of parts too 2 Likes |

Hmmm if they are stealing Toyotas I am not surprised. Toyotas are very reliable cars and only require care unlike acuras (so much for a luxury car lol) although hondas are pretty decent too |

Hondas:: Baby boy, EoD's and Bulldog Toyotas: Camry's, Camry's Camry's REASON:: They are easy to resell as there is a large demend for these types of cars (especially the spare parts). So most times, they are stripped for parts and sold rather than resold as a vehicle. |
Re: Which Car Is The Most Stolen In Nigeria? by femmy2010(m): 4:15pm On Oct 27, 2011 |
Toyotas and hondas. |
Re: Which Car Is The Most Stolen In Nigeria? by nusdog: 4:18pm On Oct 27, 2011 |
kabukabu50: But are these American specs strong enough for our bad roads? And how fuel efficient are they? I'll still prefer german cars as alternative, only they're expensive on the average. |

xwolverine: I think I saw your car in Ekiti state. Only the windscreen though. lol Sorry bro. In Aba, after the military raid to fish out Osisi ka Nku, they came across a place where all they did was dismante stolen cars into parts and resell them. I remember driving past and see the chasis of what looked like an Armada or an Infinity amongst Hyundai and kia cars. I was in . Thats why most stolen cars if not recovered within 24hrs, are never found again. |
