Maybe it’s just me but I find this video inconsistent...1st no time stamp, then a time stamp that says 2017/10/02, then another time stamp that says 2017/12/01...and the man was still wearing the same clothes and seated in the same position....I’m only trying to view it objectively though!

I don't understand why it is men commenting more on this thread than women. See as they are making noise as if they have vaginas

The male folk are more affected by this topic than the female folk...they are at the receiving end...

Toyota Corolla being the world’s best selling brand of all times with 44.1 copies sold is not by mistake...in my experience with Matrix I tell you that car is maintenance free compared to my accord

1. Toyota Corolla

The first Toyota Corolla rolled off of the assembly line and into our hearts in 1966. By 1974 it was the best-selling car in the world. When Toyota announced Corolla number 40 million, it said they fly out of dealerships so quickly the automaker isn't sure who has it or at what location number 40 million was sold. By now, the number has swelled to more than 43 million sold worldwide.

There are only two cars in the world- Mercedes and others

The author of that quote was not looking at reliability and cost-effectiveness of maintenance but considered strength and performance...a lot depends on your reference points...of recent a lot of guys have been having issues with both C and E class models between 2002 to 2008 editions...if you have also been observant then you’d see that many of them break down on the road these days mostly due to electrical problems...

The hype around reliability of Toyota stems from 3 models of toyotas: The Hilux, Corolla and Hiace. Other not so reliable models of Toyota benefited from this 3 brands.

The corolla 2003 - 2006 and Camry 99-2001 cars are legendary in Nigeria and Abroad. They engine and transmission have a knack to run on forever without issues and their suspension are hard to kill. They are generalyl simple cars that are very easy to maintain. They also do not suffer from over engineering, something that can not be said of European and American cars of similar time frame. .. The Hilux is so reliable that it has become the defacto logistics and figting vehicles of insurgent around the world.. Very few vehicles can operate in the very harsh punishing conditions of the sahel but Hilux shrines through. It fame came about After Chad defeated a powerful Libyan army with all its latest tanks and amour using the speed and mobility offered by a Toyota Hilux armed with a 50mm anti aircraft gun. The speed and mobility of the toyota allowed a small rebel Chadian army to encircle many Libyan troops forcing a Libyan surrender. This war became known in history has the Toyota war of 1987. Now you understand why the hype.

Of recent though, it has becoming obvious that newer toyotas are failing to live up to the hype and the company seems to be living on past glory. The 2008-2013 model of corollas are not as strong and reliable as their predecessors and they have started to suffer from the same over engineering which plaques European cars.. more and more modules are left in the hands of computers which can make them a bit more complicated to fix outside of official dealership.

Suspension is a minus in the Toyota Camry brand...that’s one of the competitive advantages of the Accord over it

GoldHorse:
Volvo S40 and don't talk say na lie because I deliberately tested it.... and I used AC throughout the journey.

A Toyota Matrix 2004 Model will do more...I drove mine from Abuja to Lagos with full AC on 60 ltrs (that’s full tank and 5ltrs) ...the vehicle uses the same engine with Toyota Corolla of the same year so I believe the Corolla will do same...

Second hand

Initiated to provide mass housing to Nigerian workers, the NLC, Kriston-Lally housing scheme has been hit by massive allegations of fraud. As the controversy continues, subscribers are left wondering when they will get a refund of their money. MICHAEL OCHE writesWhat began as a laudable housing arrangement between the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Kriston-Lally EPC Nigeria Limited, a private property developer to build affordable housing estates for Nigerian workers in all the 36 states including the FCT has gone sour as subscribers to the scheme are crying foul over non remittance of the money they paid to own houses in the failed deal.Despite assurances from the NLC and Kriston-Lally, subscribers are concerned about when to get a refund of the funds.Last week, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) after its Central Working Committee (CWC) meeting, constituted a committee on the NLC-Kriston-Lally Housing project with a view to fast-tracking the process of refunds to subscribers.As the controversy rages on, at least, N2.6 billion belonging to 3,090 subscribers have been trapped.Some subscribers who spoke to our reporter said when they responded to public advertisements by the NLC inviting prospective home owners to buy into the NLC, Kriston-Lally housing scheme, their desire was a roof over their heads and what they could call their own. With NLC’s pedigree and assurance, thousands staked their fortunes.Today, the hopes of thousands of subscribers have dissolved into despair. No appeal by the central labour leadership for their patience would assuage their pains. Their concern is one: how their investments, most of which came from their life-savings, could be recovered.At the onset, the advert seems inviting. Subscribers were to apply for the various house types which attracted different price tags, ranging from N4.6 million for one to two-bedroom detached and semi-detached bungalows, to N6.5 million for three-bedroom bungalows, and N18.5 million for four-bedroom fully detached bungalows.Subscription for each of the house types, which also included supporting infrastructure – roads, electricity, water, and other ancillary facilities — was to follow a repayment plan spanning 5 to 15 years at a fixed interest rate of two per cent per annum.Phase 1 of the project was for 100,000 units of houses to be completed by June 2014, for owners to take possession by latest December 2014. Another 200,000 units to be delivered on or before June 30, 2015.The subscription process was simple. Prospective subscribers were to pick up the application forms and collect a personal identification number, PIN, after the payment of a non-refundable fee of N5,000 into the NLC-Kriston-Lally EPC Project Account No. 1013399671 at Zenith Bank branches nationwide.The subscriber would use the PIN issued by the bank to log online and complete the subscription form. After the payment of 10 per cent of the total value of the interested house type into the designated account, subscribers were issued official receipts at the presentation of the bank teller.Besides, an invoice was also issued for the balance of 90 per cent, with a repayment chart, endorsement form and offer letter as well as formal contract as a subscriber.The controversyDespite the assurances by both the NLC and Kriston-Lally that all was well in their partnership, the project did not come to fruition. Workers therefore demanded refund of their stakes. This too became a knotty issue.First, the NLC went to town accusing the developer of trying to divert the subscribers’ money to a different account.Former NLC president Abdulwahed Omar accused the developer of deceiving the workers that subscribed to the housing estate to pay into another bank account operated by him despite the directive from the union stopping him from further collection of money from them because he had not performed up to expectation in the housing deal.The developer, however, shot back at the NLC, insisting that it was the NLC that was after all working to frustrate its efforts to refund the about 3,800 workers that paid for the houses.LatestKriston Lally EPC said it had filed a suit at a Federal High Court, Abuja, against the NLC seeking the order of the court to appoint a third party to handle the refund of subscribers’ funds as against what it said are ‘illegal ways undertaken by the NLC.’Madawaki assured that the refunding process would commence as soon as the Federal High Court makes a pronouncement on the setting up of a third party to supervise the refund of subscribers’ funds.The managing director of Kriston-Lally, Madawaki decried the NLC’s insistence to superintend the refund process even as he indicated his company’s readiness to refund subscribers’ money, noting that it has set up a unit in his office to facilitate the process.He said, “After a careful consideration of NLC’s continuous mischief, we decided that we shall seek justice from a court of competent jurisdiction and further ask the court to appoint an independent body to distribute subscribers funds back to them. We can no longer trust NLC since the President (former) went on air and told the nation that he was not aware of the interest that accrued on the subscribers deposit when there are documents to prove same. This account must have generated close to N200 million. They may have also included fictitious names to cover up the interest, thus jeopardising the safety of subscribers’ funds.”Is Kriston-Lally at large?The NLC said in spite of the agreement reached with Kriston-Lally for the refund of subscribers funds, Mr Madawaki, in whose custody all instruments relating to the transaction, including the cheque books and details of all the dealings with the banks are, failed to show up, stalling the entire refund process.Processing subscribers’ documents had actually commenced as agreed, till when Mr Madawaki was invited to sign the relevant instruments to the bank for the transfer of some money from Zenith Bank to Access Bank for payment to commence.After more than three weeks, frustrated, the NLC, which was becoming inundated with protests by anxious subscribers, said it wrote to the DSS on December 19, 2014 to draw its attention to the sudden disappearance of Mr Madawaki.“We are anxious to have the refunds effected. But, we cannot do so, because we are not holding the money. Until we get Kriston-Lally to cooperate with us, there is little we can do. That is why we are asking the DSS to intervene expeditiously,” Mr Ozo-Eson, NLC secretary general said on Wednesday.What’s the latest?Kriston Lally EPC said it had filed a suit at a Federal High Court, Abuja, against the NLC seeking the order of the court to appoint a third party to handle the refund of subscribers’ funds as against what it said are ‘illegal ways undertaken by the NLC.’Madawaki assured that the refunding process would commence as soon as the Federal High Court makes a pronouncement on the setting up of a third party to supervise the refund of subscribers’ funds.

210km/hr honda accord 1998--oyo-ibadan express road

Nissans re fun to drive i have to agree...i used a 89 model nissan bluebird 2.0 slx for 10 years and it never dissapointed once....its d 8 plugs 2.0 engine.it accelerates like a jet and its braking system is off the hook....she was just fun while she lasted...the only issue i had with it was costly parts but then d parts are rarely faulty.
I had used a 99 toyota camry after it for about 2 years and currently a 98 accord and i tell you not one of these can meet the acceleration of the Nissan bluebird between 0 and 80km/h.
