| Advisable Car To Buy Between 1-1.5m As A New Car Owner by jedisco(m): 12:42pm On Mar 18, 2017 |
Goo day house. Please I'm about to purchase my first car and have a budget of 1m-1.5m max. I have a bias for honda and Toyota vehicles as I believe that they are reliable and easier to maintain. I'm torn between Honda (1st grade nigerian used EOD or toks or first grade nigerian used Discussion continues) and Toyota (Nigerian used corolla) Is it advisable to go for a nigerian used vehicle at a car stand or should I rather go for toks? I've seen people who had terrible experiences after purchasing nigerian used vehicles so I'm a bit sceptical. But the exchange rate is not helping matters. What car do u think I should go for? Any reliable vehicle apart from those I listed would be appreciated. |

If you are buying Nigerian used please don't use all your cash to buy it if nah 1m, buy 800k worth, if nah 1.5 buy 1.2m worth. Nigerian used or tons will get sick within 6months and u need cash to put it in order. I would advice naija used 2004 corolla or yaris if you find one within your range after buying install tracker because men of the under world won't announce when they will come and lease it 3 Likes 2 Shares |

nurey: In that case, wouldn't it be better if I just go for EOD toks? Because I don't want to buy and start repairing after a short while. How durable is an EOD compared to a corolla? |

Thanks to those who have given their opinion. I still need more advice @gazzuz and co. still waiting. .. |

jedisco: It's a solid car but I would prefer you pick 04 or 05, 2003 has transmission issues. The EOD is OK when you hear noise from the front wheels endeavor to change your wheel bearings and use original quality if you don't want shoki leg pull. 2 Likes 1 Share |

OP, deep down in your mind you already know the car you want to buy, but instead of you to go buy your car in peace, you want to come seek and get some attention first. If everyone who makes enough money to buy a car comes here to disturb our peace then I assure you, nairaland will have an average of 50 of these types of thread on a daily basis. 2 Likes |

@op Your best bet is Toyota camry 2001 model (First grade tokunbo) V4 engine. Reasons: (1) toyota corrolla attracts thieves and armed robbers (2) Honda has K leg (3) you will have some change left for alloy rims, papers, number plates etc. (4) you will have peace of mind. |

Deprofessional: Are you kidding me, the 1997 to 2002 camry has a useless security than corolla in fact the car is been stolen whole without any trace. Do you know how many people drive theirs to church and enter bus back home. Op don't buy that camry except you will install tracker and you will only Park in gated compounds. https://www.nairaland.com/1550705/why-toyota-camry-tiny-light https://www.nairaland.com/3432047/stolen-stolen-stolen-camry-2000 https://www.nairaland.com/3376306/2001-toyota-camry-stolen-gun https://www.nairaland.com/2104848/stolen-car-plsss https://www.nairaland.com/2889531/pencil-light-camry-preventing-mechanic 1 Like |
