My boss uses a vibe, on comparison I discovered it costs more to buy n maintain. I'm on a budget sir.
Happy weekend chief.

What impressed you exactly? I always see them, even this morning on my way to work, saw two sweet blue n silver coloured 307 cars.
personally, I prefer the hatchback shape to even that of the 308 though the latter has a better looking interior and steering wheel (steering look is very important to me)

Why do you prefer the 307 to the 308? I think the 308 is a little bigger and better specs than the 307,the interior and exterior design is better too. But in terms of maintenance I think the 307 can withstand abuse more than the 308 according to Ikenna the Lion King.

Hello guys so i need your opinion on a matter
My uncle sells german cars at beggar lagos but the issue is that people dont seem to like german cars as they prefer the flashy American ones
He has been adviced to switch over to other cars from other countries but he refused saying german cars are stronger and better
So whats your say on this
Is there a group of people who prefer german cars you can direct to him

your uncle is not interested in advice now, experience will have to teach him a lesson. I personally love Mercedes but as a businessman, I'll rather sell corollas so as not to tie down my capital and also take advantage of the booming market opened up by ride hailing services

That's the point I've not been cleared on too.
Peugeot auto transmission can be temperamental if treated badly the way Nigerians abuse their cars with wrong transmission fluids. You just don't know how it was used previously so if you're going for Nigerian used auto, it's advisable you get a Peugeot technician with PP 2000/Diagbox scanner so as to avoid stories that touch. As it stands now, the only person I trust and know for Lion pre-purchase inspection is Ikenna351, just pay his fees . It's better than sinking money down a toilet.

I'll just jejely go for the manual transmission to avoid stories that touch. Made up my mind on that already.

Hello my brothers, how have we being and work?
I was with a transporter today that travels two Kaduna-Abuja trips daily as he entered the mech workshop to check his legs. Can you imagine this guy does three trips on some days going to Abuja from KD n coming back using a 307 automatic transmission. Car's durability is topnotch.
I asked him to honestly tell me about the fuel consumption, he said with a full tank he goes to Abuja n returns twice before topping up on the average.

Another point guys; he said for his choice of tranny (auto) he's changed his gearbox which goes for about 150k while the manual gearbox goes for 25k. He actually said cost of parts between both trannies are miles apart but he just chose to do 307 auto.

Prices are going up at the moment guys.

@Elsueno

Bros d issue here is, which do u like d most (Auto or manual?) and d purpose of purchasing d car.

I would really advice against using Auto 307 for Uber..Not much profit would be made if u intend to keep d car top notch.

For personal use, as long as it's a clean tested tokunbo, it doesn't matter if it's Manual or auto..it's all d same. I am using an auto triptonic 307, to be honest I drive more in d manaul mode than auto especially 4 long journeys...Auto mode for urban & slow traffic areas.
