Any year your budget can afford but for 2002 to 2006 stay away from XC90 fitted with a Turbo 6cylinder engine T6.

Thank God you didn't mentioned Mercedes Benz. He needs at least N 3 million & above to get a good Nigerian used benz.

I have a NAIJA used 2006 matrix I can give you for 2M. You will keep like 150k to oven bake. The painter did a bad painting job but the gear, interior, AC and engine is very perfect.

And toks Pontiac vibe 04 for 3.5M
I started using the vibe to ferry my kids to school since the removal of subsidy… it was imported 2 years ago but not registered

I had same concerns before buying a C300. I’ve only needed to change brake pads, and regular maintenance like oil change and plugs. Funny enough I bought it as Nigerian used that was imported since 2018.

If you ever need to buy a Benz, talk to actual owners on their experiences. There’s a lot of misconception about cost of Benz maintenance in Nigeria.


Whatever works for you though.
