Car Talk / Re: Help Make An Informed Decision. Toyota Highlander Or Hyundai Tucson by DGD1(m): 5:46pm On Jan 03, 2016
Tucson and Santa FE would still accommodate same number of passengers as ur corrola, jusst ground clearance differentiates them.

you can get a highlander with 3rd row option which would take more people.

but then highlander can't be compared with any of those, you can compare them to rav4.

pls I have a 2004 RHD of toyota avensis and will need a perfect technician to convert for me. Pls can you tell me more about this guys and their contact.

I can vouch for them, the one @ molete has his workshop close to adedibu's house, the other side of the road though. He did quite a number of jobs I saw and was impressed, except you were told the car was converted (camry pencil, camry muscle, honda civic 2005, honda accord 2006 European model) those I know and drove
some had display and was tested after conversion worked well also scanned to check 4 electrical fault, none.
I don't have his number also forgot his name it's been a while

SAVEDBABA:
not all cars are durable e.g nissan murano(i am nt going to give reasons) and relatively not all cars are fuel economical,can u compare hw a volvo i4 of dos day (240gl i4 for instance) comsumes fuel to how a toyota camry i4 of d same year consume fuel?

eaglechild:

Nigerians killed off their murano gear boxes by pouring seahorse into a CVT instead of using the correct oil.

carblognaija:


Exactly! i won a Murano that I have driven for 2 yrs with no issues. Just use the recommended stuff. Pple complain about the CVT because like you said they get a cheap seahorse transmission oil instead of the recommended Nissan CVT oil.

as regarding the fuel consumption, your analysis is not fair, how could you compare fuel consumption of both cars who are generations apart, na wa o.
anyone buying dat volvo now won't be considering fuel economy, hope u feel me¿

Car Talk / Re: First Car by DGD1(m): 7:52pm On Jan 01, 2016
I want yuh guys to know something,
1. all cars are affordable once there is a price tag, yuh just choose that which yuh can afford.

2. All cars are durable, depending on the location and corresponding type of car.

3. All cars are fuel economical provided the mechanics haave not been tampered with. whether I3,I4,I6,V6,V8,V12 etc

4. As for the spare parts, they are readily available. you don't buy an exclusive ride and expect to buy the parts at our local spare parts shops,

this matter never still cool down.

the lady in question here is abusing her car(all thanks to the friendly toyota).
hope everyone now see why we advice most people to just go for toyota.
Assuming this lady read any of ikenna's post or aany of this German guys, then decides to go for them, y'all know the car is dead on arrival.

kingreign, honmusa there is nothing you can say to convince her, just let her be. trust me that car can run 4 5yrs with that type of oil she is using.

When you reach you pay her #850k... Can't you see its a registered vehicle?

been registered doesn't make the car price cut by over 200k.
something is wrong somewhere. the body is clean no doubt, but there is more that meets the eye.

it myt also be a giveaway price.
Car Talk / Re: Buying A Used Car? Read This First To Avoid Making The Mistakes I Made by DGD1(m): 5:17pm On Dec 24, 2015
Rumin8:


You're right. I did consider buying another Accord, even an 07 Camry, but the allure of the Passat's 3.6l V6 engine and four wheel drive was too great to ignore. Now it's put me in this mess, the very same thing that made me purchase the car. If it hadn't been a four wheeler, the problems it's giving now wouldn't exist.

I guess in life we live to learn. My first experience of the all powerful 'German car' has been negative. Would switch to a much reliable Japanese once I raise enough cash. If I ever have to buy a German car again, it has to be brand new. Save me some headache.

that's it,
when buying anything other than Japanese, if you can't afford brand new, just lock up and double your hustle.

my very fear about 9ja used cars.

bro, please sell that crap better still dump it somewhere.
by the way how much did you buy the car, because you have spent over #400k changing one part to the other.

am not judging you, but I believe if yoou had thought off buying a lesser price but dependable car(toyota or honda).

the headache and wahala of buying a car and have not enjoyed it could be very disheartening

Oga o,

I believe nothing wrong with December, it's just our believe and mentality.

1. this doesn't look like an highway, more like a street.
2. this accident is definitely caused by carelessness on the the part of one or both of the drivers.

witnessed one in Ibadan, around Iwo road, similar but it was head-on collision. very silly of the drivers.
happy commuting nairalanders
