Op discussion continues is honda Accord 06 and 07 only, evil spirit started from 08 to 13 I think, also camry muscle starts from 07 to 12 try to correct those.

Mercedez 911 popularly called molue was formed by students back then, in 1972 there was a riot and students were forced to take those buses then cause they had no choice, so one day the conductor was beating and harassing students and a military man was on mufti and watching so when they got to barrack bus-stop then at oshodi the army told the conductor to get down and student and the conductor was been beaten and he was begging and shouting (I didn't beat u, I didn't beat u in yoruba) meaning "mo lu ire" from there molue was coined among we students then. Those days were interesting.
u are spewing baloney......the origin of molue stems from d fact dat d vehicle is 'mold' by panel beaters and Mercedes Benz engine installed.......now d word 'mold' is corrupted to get 'molue' as in 'mold e' .......get ur fact straight and don't bamboozle dis generation wit ur cock and bull story!

Kai, liar!!
Molue is a youruba meaning of the english word "Maul it"
Those big buses were meant for mauling/jam-packing passengers. i.e 49 sitting, 99 standing.
