You buy a Good, Durable, strong Car, that is what your thread is for right?

BUY THE CROSSTOUR.I REPEAT BUY THE CROSSTOUR!
It's the most reliable of the three although the least luxurious.
Although I know it's really for you.�

It is problematic when it's old.

So get brand new.

your last paragraph just supported my theory that car no be car.

You no go compare the interior or power or driving characteristics with BMW and Honda/Acura.

Wow. This is a great experience. No axle issues of any kind?

During the 5000km service, I go into the pit and examine the entire underside of the vehicle.

I have never had any axle issue; I recently changed out the transfer case and rear diff fluids as well.

The Zdx is a product of honda but the luxury brand. THE Zdx moves well and still turns heads anywhere. Rarely gives issue, just follow a good maintenance culture.

The BMW (I'm. Guessing the X5 or X6) also a good Suv for senior men. Handling and performance very very good.
Have to watch out for maintenance here as well.

The BMW x5 offers more space than the ZDX
More practical.
But more expensive to maintain than the ZdX..

ZDX LIKE THE X6 HAVE THIS SPORTY Look. I FEEL the Zdx is a better choice. Another thing your dad, what does he like in a vehicle., speed? Performance? Reliability? Fuel economy? Appearance?

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?
Not at all yet

What is X5 doing amongst toys? It's an insult to the Bavarian Motor Works.

Hello. I dunno if I can get help. I don't really know the specs of these cars. But I believe we got people with great experience here. My Dad's retired and wants to get one of these and we are actually inexperienced with cars outside Toyota.

Would you please ask you staff for a. Quick review

The çar is just too OK that guy can't do without BMW he have the 5series, the X5 series,and a convertible BMW but what I will advice you is that such cars that you want to go for are not the type of car you drive everyday like Toyota product cos they are executive car it is good you alternate such expensive cars with other cheaper ones

Just ask him to buy Corolla, because the next episode after 'parts are expensive' is 'e nor dey chop fuel'. Abeg you guys should let the old man enjoy some good driving experience with the BMW X5. If he can afford it, he should go for it, after all, there's more to life than all these 'cheap things'.

coolcharm:
Go for Honda Cross Tour. Cheaper parts than ZDX and BMW.

Infact, runaway from that ZDX. Parts are as expensive as kilode.

That could be old model cuz 2018 of it is about 1mill Rands in South Africa

Naturally cars are more expensive in South Africa compared to Nigeria a 2005 Camry here which sell at 1.8, 2m can sell for 2.5m over there when converting the Rand price to Naira

Re: Acura ZDX, Honda Crosstour And The BMW X5 by Nobody: 9:25am On Dec 30, 2020
I think he should go for the Honda accord crosstour of the last model year... Facelift, upgraded interior and of course, new generation engine and gear. Na 2021 we dey enter so.. 2015 model car still recent for this bad naira economy.

Share ur experience with me pls

I dont know what there is to share really. One thing about me isnthat i buy cars that are very sound, with low mileage. I insist on less than 70k kilometres

I maintain my cars very well. So i really have never had any issues with my well maintained Hondas

I insist on only original parts when changing anything. Thanks to God i can afford it. For me, fake parts is false economy. It will break again, and u spend more. Luckily, i have a good mechanic that always buys original parts for me (of course, he always adds 2k on price of each item. But i dknt care because he uses his time to go buy parts).

Original honda parts are easily available

Love ur car and listen to it all the time. If u hear any strange noise, attend to it

So as i said, i really dont know what to share as i hve never had any problem with my Hondas. Its been all plain sailing, but i maintained them well.

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 old 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
honestly the way they reason ehhhh so backwards I must say.truly someone easily get bored of Toyota cars,even the luxury brands (Lexus),telling him he must use a car his tired of,them no get at sense at all,and to think of it I can bet it 80 percent of them condemning Honda and other brand never owned a car or never driven a Honda brand, pathetic.

No bro I think cars re more expensive in Nigeria than in SA. Imagine à 2005 model of Camry being sold at 2mill...2005 model? For 2mill? Lol but on a more serious question do people still drive 2005 cars in Naija?
