Cross tour is a NO for me. I don't know about others but seeing 2 accidental Crosstours when it just started coming into the country got me pissed off. He should think Benz or Volvo if he wants an uncommon luxury.

if your dad is retired let him enjoy the latter part of his life. Get a BMW. I use one and I can tell you that he won't have a better driving experience. And yes I have driven the others. As long as he keeps to the maintenance regime, the BMW is what he should get
Thanks I do appreciate...

You're a good man.
femarse:
so the OP was here for advice on 3 different cars
the OP mention that the only experience the pop man got is on Toyota
so it's clear the pop man in his heold age want to taste something flashy and different from a Toyota


what did Toyota fans did ?

they all advice OP pop man to go back and buy Toyota ...as in the OP pop man must drive Toyota till death do him and life apart

why is stupidity not far from Toyota fans ? with the way they all condemn Honda
you will think you can't see Toyota in mechanic workshop.....but go take a look , they constitutes 75% of cars in mechanic workshop, don't argue , just go to any workshop, snap it comprehensively in one shoot , let's do the car comparison there

ZDX is a no no. Maintenance is something else as the spare parts are extremely costly. X5 is just another German machine. I can't really give an accurate detail about fuel consumption and all but it's sure not a favourite. Crosstour is the best choice among the three as fuel consumption and maintenance is pocket friendly. Also when placed side by side, it's the cheapest.

Summary is your Dad deserves more than spending his sweat on what will quickly drain his pocket and take his time in terms of maintenance. If you're in Lagos I can get you a clean tokunbo crosstour.
Yes we're in Lagos

BMW X5. Strongest car I've ever used. Withstood a very terrible accident and couldn't be used again. Its parts are cheap (compared to X6 and X7). Buy foreign used and not Nigerian used for best experience. ciao
That's great . Thanks i appreciate

I am more disappointed at your comment than all the Honda critique's before you.

It is only a woman who was a virgin on her wedding day that will insist her husband has the biggest prick.

Her crime is ignorance.

Thanks. He's not getting a Toyota again.

Wealthoptulent:



For him to retire well, save his pension and be safe from mech chops at old age i write off the 3 cars. Am a bmw chronic user, used 3 toyota n still ran back to BMW, why i understand it well so used to its issues but for an old man who wants old age peace bmw is off it, he doesnt neeed speed or its balance n ruggedly fitness now.

For zdx expenses fr maintenance on high side, good n quality auto electrical expert needed around, its a car u scan before working on it.

Cross tour is jus uncalled for for him, its hands [pivot issues, rack] also the engine is expensive to replace.

Instead of the anychoice of the 3 he can get a camry & corolla 2005 at same time or lexus es350 and corolla at same time. The corolla support is to maintain any big luxury car he get along with the corolla. The Corolla for runnning round except you have that in compound before now. Thank me later��

Ever thought of Venza and RX350 2012 model? Both are cheaper when it comes to maintenance than any those other three above

Thanks for the info. Do u have an experience with the ZDX

On the aforementioned cars, your dad as a retiree should go for the Honda Crosstour. Run away from ZDX even though it's similar to Crosstour.

If your dad is well to do as a retiree, he should go for the X5 which is better than all of them.

By the way, did you consider some Lexus products?

Do you know of any good mechanic for tht X5?

It depends on your location. The authorized dealer would probably have a list of recommended mechanics. You could start from there.

You are probably the first human on earth to ever say this. Only extremely few cars on earth are as durable as BMW's. Little wonder, my dad's 3 series of over 20 years is still intact till this day... What about speed and performance? Beamer got it... I don't know your BMW experience, but Beamer is King!!!

Up to around 2003, BMWs were durable. Beyond then, they started loading the vehicles with technology, making twin turbocharged engines, incorporating plastics into engines, and consequently the average BMW rarely gets to 80k miles before developing faults that are seriously expensive, sometimes impossible, to repair.

Mercedes and BMW have reputations of reliability, but the modern ones, not so much.
You are better off buying them new and enjoying the new experience. When the problem stage comes, cut your losses. ( Benz is slightly more reliable than BMW, by the.way - the engines and transmissions are pretty bulletproof, but other things will be problematic).

For peace of mind of that elderly man, get him something simple, functional and reliable.

A Lexus RX350 covers these basics and still goes on to be plush and comfortable.
