No one mentioned Honda civic 1999 - 2002. This car can be gotten for about 800k to 1m.

But wait o Mercedes-Benz w202 c180 is great for a newbie. Can be gotten for 800k to about 1m.

Good thing is if you can get a clean Nigerian used for less.
Thanks for this. Na peeps like you we need.

The words in bold are wrong Bro.
The reason for the high price is the demand factor. In economics, it's likened to the demand factor.
u are very wrong my dear I drive two cars n from my experience from both cars my carmy 99model will swim past where my Honda discussion continues will go off

I travelled to a remote location to take delivery of some equipmentS. I was low on fuel but decided to push my luck to get to the next gas station. Unfortunately, dirt's from the bottom tank was sucked up and that took out the fuel pump.
Moral of the story: don't drive on empty tanks
thanks for sharing your story. I've been a victim of several fuel pump deaths and am yet to figure out what might be the cause. what I notice is that when my fuel level goes below a certain point just above quarter tank, the car starts jerking. if it happens some two or three times, the fuel pump is gone. to make matters worse, the level at which this incidence occurs is continually on the rise. it was initially below quarter tank, now its above that and gradually increasing heading towards half tank. as a result, my effective tank capacity is being depleted gradually. the several mechanics I've visited are still unable to find a solution to my predicament.

You say I'm very wrong? How do you mean? So the basis of your theory is from comparing only 2 cars (camry 99 and Honda DC)?
That's wrong Bro.
I'd throw this at you now. Where 1999 Mercedes C class would swim past, can your 1999 camry swim past?

Don't forget the basis on which I quoted you was because you said the reasons for the high price in Toyota in Nigeria is because they are very reliable but I tell you it's not cos of reliability but cos of demand factor.
2 yeas back, the w202 c class cost very cheap cos demand for Mercedes was low due to past records on fuel consumption with early models (Shagari, regular, V boot, etc) while camry tiny light/ corolla was most sort for. But I tell you, with the demand of the benz now, you'd see that the price for the c class is on the rise cos of demand.
Na now peeps know saw w202 c class beats pencil light and corolla when it comes to fuel consumption, reliability and ruggedness as well as maintenance.

Then you're not being completely honest. You seem to be adding sentiments to your points.
Facts is that the w202 c180 c class is a rear wheel. Your camry pencil light is a front wheel. Do you know the mechanics behind these drive train? So how does your camry get that advantage over the c class?
Explain please. This is purely Physics.

And did the w202 c180 drown in the same water/flood?
I bet you that if the c class passes that same water, it would not need any flushing.

Just in case you don't know, the battery of that c class is not on the bonnet as you may have thought.
So I ask you again, would the w202 c180 c class drown/ get stuck or go off in a pool of water that a Toyota camry pencil light would swim through?

Save your strength bro, Nigerians will keep hyping cos they hear others hype and also join the bandwagon too

The only winners here are the dealers, 'you say it's now the Camry that's the best above all cars now Abi, Oya go and Rob that bank and come and buy it, no more cheap camrys'

Years back it was the Peugeot 504, at a point it was passat, also remember when it was the Benz 200 or 230. Even at that point the hype was on manual cars, "automatic transmission is evil and terrible, when you have a low battery, you can't push". Every kazeem was hyping manual cars the way they hype Toyota now

Someone who has never used a car will be quick to rush and condemn it, claiming his Camry is better than it. A car he's probably never held the keys to, not to talk of doing a 10km drive in it, yet they're so sure their Camry is superior and is the best thing after sliced bread, it is well
