Please Recommend The Best Car by TheOldGods: 6:15pm On Sep 19, 2021
My friend wants to get a car, I coached him into freelancing, and he feels like buying a car. I don't even know much about cars, neither does he, so I suggested that I could bring it up here. Considering how things are, in Nigeria. So the problem is, he doesn't want a car where he will spend too much on repairs and fuel. He also has a budget of 2.5m max.this will be his first car, he is still young, early 20's. So he doesn't want to spend all his saving buying a car of course. Please recommend for him here. As a young guy, he needs something classy, but not something that will make police to always stop him all the time. You can also suggest a car that above 2.5million.

Hi
Re: Please Recommend The Best Car by Timagex(m): 7:01pm On Sep 19, 2021
What are the kind of cars that interests him? Is it saloon or hatchback or SUV? What kind of road does he ply daily? Does he want a tokunbo or he doesn't mind a Nigerian used?

With the 2.5m, in my opinion, he should be looking at a Lexus es300 or a Toyota Corolla/Camry. The question remains, what kind of cars does he like?

Es300 is a good sedan car. The Lexus is a good brand. But, personally, I don't like the ford edge. A boss of mine said it's problematic.

Advice your friend to get a Toyota or a Lexus.

he should cut his coat according to his..... You know the popular adage...
You can't get a modern car for 2.5 million, except a lemon.
With his price range, he should be looking at a Nigerian used camry muscle. Due diligence though

is it that your read but can't understand or what?. I've said here so many times.
He doesn't want something very popular, and a car used mostly by yahoo people. He also mentioned that you can suggest a car more than his budget if it will get the police of him

Besides checking jiji, and cars.com, there are lot of foreign cars 2011 selling for that price

and is your iQ obviously low to comprehend simple english? Tu comprehendè?

He doesn't want something very popular but wants a modern car? How's that even possible?

As far as he's young, and drives a car, he can never escape the police.
There's no car above the police magnet, and that's the sad reality of Nigeria today..

BUDGET IS NOW 5mill

what's your definition of a modern car?
5 million won't get you any modern car.
A modern car starts from 2015 upwards.
I own two cls500, 2009, and 2015(14.3 million), and I'm 4*...
I still get stopped by the men in black frequently too, so him saying he doesn't want to be accosted by the police is impossible...
Even not regularly, but it's inevitable.

For 5 million, he can get a 2013 Honda accord.
Sleek ride with good interior build, and great value for your money. Good balance on the road, and acceleration is top notch.

Again, 5 million and a modern car do not go hand in hand grin

Shalom

dude, my last reply to you.

Go ship a non accidented full option 2013 for less than 4 million naira at the current exchange rate, shipping, customs, etc

You're a joker obviously.
If you knew these things, then you really shouldn't be opening a thread.

I don't need your quote. U have 2 Cl500, Only you have 2009, you have a car of 14.9 million, your 4+ and you're here early morning talking about cars, and calling me dude. There is no maturity in your writeups, Who asked you about your age and the cars you drive? Just to make mouth. People who have money don't talk. and yes, we are getting a 2015 model. I guess you drive 2013 and you want my friend to get the same. lol faceless forum of anybody can be anything.

There are obviously levels to these things.

Like i told you făggot, go through my posts carefully again, and get knocked out.

You're a small rat, and very inconsequential in the scheme of things.

You earn in dollars?
Omg, I'm scared.
I've attached a screenshot of 2 years earnings minus investment.
Go knock yourself out in the head again, and stop posing..
