@ all, thanks OGD1, what I mean is that l want to b penny wise.
mr. what I mean is this:
you a newbie, will have to hang *L* batch for a few months, then Golf 3 is not a strange car to our mechanics, the parts are readily available. like wise the Toyota Carina E, there are other cars in the range but can certify this two.
I don't think you will want kazeem tamper with your Benz or other big cars mentioned above, frustration will set in.
IMO which maxima or Benz etc mentioned will go for that price range the op is having? save its Nigeria used, common let's help a brother here.
the golf or Carina e won't b your last, just your 1st, you can buy a benz, audi, bmw or aLexus next (you and lomomike will be in the same club).

Judging by the overhead hand suspension, my avensis 2011 model has 4. What would you say about that?
mr,
pls read what I said well, I made mention of 3 overhead hand suspension with a condition (IF). I didn't say it was a sure way to know. since yours is having 4 their are other ways to know if it was converted.

Car TalkRe: Need Advice On Car To Buy by DGD1(m): 6:52pm On Apr 19, 2015
for that price, you can get a clean golf 3(manual) or Toyota Carina E(auto/manual).
the point am not sure is where you where you are saying you don't want it chop your money, bros....you will fuel, oil change, some other things that will require money.
IMO if you don't neglect the car by giving it what it needs, it will not disappoint you.
GoodLuck

Its probably a LHD drive. Look at the fuel tank opener lever under the drivers seat.
u myt not tell by DAT, av seen clean conversions DAT r lyk DAT. one way I think is by snapping d gear stick since its auto,
den d hand suspension overhead, d driver side should not have, if d driver side should have and the front passenger side doesn't have, bro....it was converted

Please advice me on which type of car to go for, with regards to cost of maintenance, fuel consumption and durability.

I really do need your honest opinions so I don't end up shooting myself in the foot. Thanks for your responses.

Car TalkRe: 100k Salary Enough To Get A Car? by DGD1(m): 4:12pm On Apr 09, 2015
since u want a car, DAT salary is OK, I wonder y alot of people think you have to earn 200k and above to own a car.
if you can save to get a toks or good naija used car, all you need do is just to fuel and do routine maintenance NUREY has given you breakdown, dat is on the high side.
using a car is beta n saves alot of stress, though I don't stay in Lagos, 2500 fuel will last me a week BT if I consider public transport will b spending @least 2000, now think of d stress from one taxi to d oda, no privacy, sum ppl will just talk to u any aw, d stress n discomfort, I bliv if am paying 500 for DAT, it Worth's it.
bro go 4 d car n u won't regret.

Car TalkRe: Battery/alternator Problems: Help! by DGD1(m): 2:03pm On Apr 06, 2015
DelTel:
Unfortunately, Nigerian market (ASPAMDA for car spares) is the major commercial hub for almost all West African markets, majorly due to the large population and entrepreneurial acumen of Nigerians (igbo kwenu).

You will be shocked to find out that the so-called dealership and agents patronise them; even the almighty Ladipo auto market.
you have said it all, if u want to enjoy ur battery to last long, its beta u order for it, though some outlets in Nigeria/Ghana might have them BT its one chance, u myt end up paying multiple for fake we all buy at popular markets

if you bought the battery brand new in Nigeria at about 11-13k, bro u are using extra-life on the battery. don't b deceived by the green indicator.
After careful examination, I discover diz batteries last a little over a year.
BT batteries from abroad lasts years.
since its auto, go buy another battery bro, so u won't b embarrassed by d car.
