Abeg, who has used it in Nigeria.

Contemplating between 2004 Ford Focus and 2005 Honda City (cvt-ish) for a close pal.

What do you mean by a good problematic car? Are you shopping for a problematic ride? I have as an abused Murano if you need one.

Are you in abuja? If yes, just go to Toyota sellers in Zuba market and buy whatever you need.

goodish but if you buy check it properly for overheating catalytic not blocked..... the engines fomoco series are also found in Volvo and Mazda's

head gasket do fail as a result of the above and coolant goes into engine (gasket burnt)

also bushes might need replacing due to naija roads

make sure you mark location before removing suspension or else you might never get the ride quality back

make sure the cooling fan kicks on when engine is warm.

check trailing rear trailing arm bushes for wear

fuel economy is exceptional on 1.6 petrol. if all the above was checked good car to manage on naija road but not rushed like giragira....

I think you should go for Honda city instead. Ford lacks good mechanics in 9ja. Though this particular one is a bit ok as kazeem can manipulate it a bit
