What kind of dumb list is this that doesn't have old Volkswagen beetle (A car produced in 1930s and 1940s) and still in use till date. Also no Volkswagen vanagon, the popular model vehicle for danfo that goes through unimaginable cruelty in the hands of Danfo drivers and never dies. SMH undecided

I think you should replace the Honda Accord with Mazda 323.

If there's any Honda I could consider, it should be the 1998 and 2003 Honda Civic.

I like that Mazda 323 , but e be like say e no dey market

There is a reason why if you go to any desert, in the toughest of conditions, be it Afghanistan or Nigeria or Sahara you will find hilux and not Ford Explorer or GMC. BTW Tacoma is simple the American version of the hilux with coil springs for comfort instead of rear leaf suspension. It is not as tough as the hilux because of this.

I don't agree with this list, the only car that can last a lifetime is the

1981 DELOREAN DMC-12

The BTTF machine.
