₦airaland Forum

I usually avoid threads like this, filled with "beer parlor" information from ignorant and uninformed people, but I have time this morning, na bank holiday here.

Sometimes e good to apply common sense to everything in life first.

Toyota is overwhelmingly the most popular automaker in much of Nigeria, except for pockets in the North where its often neck and neck with or beaten by Honda, Peugeot, etc.

Applying common sense to this fact, which brand engines you feel say go full market?

If 6 of 10 vehicles on the roads are Toyota vehicles, would you expect to go to an auto parts market and 6 of 10 engines would be Honda engines? Common sense.

If 6 of 10 people own toyotas, knowing Nigerians are generally bad at vehicle maintenance, which model you feel say people go find their spare parts more? Common sense

Are Toyotas perfect? Definitely not. Specific models have specific issues. But una no dey ever tire for this "Toyotas are light" or "Toyotas are easily stolen", among several other ignorant and unsubstantiated statements?

Toyotas are in high demand all over the world. It is not a Nigerian phenomenon. The Corolla is the best selling passenger sedan worldwide for a reason, and the people that came up with that conclusion did not even factor Nigeria into their research, because how many people dey buy car brand new for Nigeria?

If toyotas are in such high demand and command relatively high prices compared to similar models in the same class, which models do you think thieves would target?

Thief wey steal Honda Civic, how much you feel say im go sell am for?

Third wey vandalize Honda Accord parts like ECU, window switches, Entertainment system, how much e go sell am for?

Why that thief no go target Toyota instead?

Common sense.

Whenever you wan claim say Toyotas dey light, get online and find the gross weight of the model, and compare it with the gross weight of a similar non-Toyota in the same category. You may find that the Toyota may be lighter or heavier than the other model. The point is, enlighten yourself with facts, not what Monsuru mechanic said after 6 bottles.

If person begin analyse all the ignorance fueled information on this page, e go be full time job, I already have one of those, so I no do.

If after this, common sense still no wan enter your head, my brother or sister, carry go.

Is Honda Japanese or not? If yes, go read all you write and bury your head in shame. The original poster said ............ had it been a Japanese car. You were the one who introduced Toyota in the whole thing. The post from Felicia or whatnot does not make sense whatsoever! Is his car an armoured carrier that a small dent cannot be panelbeated?

His ancient vehicle is a 1 of 1, limited edition Mercedes, which cannot be repaired.

SeaTrade:
lol,I guess what's missing in most of these ranters is growth mindset.
Real growth brings sense ,it makes people see things for what they really are I guess,not making a big deal out of little things.
If them dey panel beat GLE coupe still sell to clients with taste and money to complement the taste,I wonder what's the big deal to do same to a very old,cheaper,inferior counterpart.

Lol, baba, you sabi how far. As a bonafide Benz man yourself, you get the experience with these old German troublemobiles these people love to hype here.

When cosplay was active that year, I recall more than 50% of the cars he busted on auto section were beat up, severely damaged Mercedes vehicles that were panel beaten and filler repaired to a glossy photo finish.

Yet one ignoramus wants to declare to the world that his ancient Mercedes cannot have body repairs, while "Japanese" vehicles can.

Must be something in the water he's drinking.

Fellow nairalanders join me and thank God for his goodness.
I just have minor bruises on my face and a heavy head ache because of the impact with the steering wheel.
My organ check came out fine and the MRI scan came out fine too.

Stop speeding with Toyota Corolla you people will never hear word
I am sure it will be repaired and advertised as accident free for the next victim
Get Landcruiser family, FJ cruiser , 4-runner if you are a speed freak

Say this to yourselves in the mirror: Ignorance will not lead me astray

The vehicle did exactly what it was designed to do. Kept the occupants alive and with as few injuries as possible. Crumple zones took most of the damage, safety cage intact, airbags deployed as designed.

But I don't expect either of you to understand the explanation above. So just repeat the statement about ignorance, and try to help yourselves

OfficialDJ:
My wealth that has been verified offline personally by some folks here,not this retarded clown who still drives his wife's jalopy contraption.

Afraid to be battered, shattered and thrown under the bus if you quote me?

All my CLAIMS have been documented here for all to see, and if you want more, ask, you albino dweeb.

You must really think I'd have the time to open alternate accounts to massage my ego against inconsequential and sad sad clowns, who masturbate under the whim of my mentions.


You're no longer a conquest, as I took you to the cleaners, and will continue to be the nemesis of foul-mouthed bullies in this section....


I've sanitized this section considerably, and the level of hate has gone down by a huge margin...

All hail KingDJ...


Anywhere I see any act of bullying by you fat-bellied riff-raffs in this section, prepare for war you hermaphrodite..

Quote me and watch me disjoint and decapitate your mental health with full-blown disses..


Gravatar, the gay gigolo, who's masked under the impression of marriage.

Quote me I dare you

All these ones na just noise. I come on here for cruise now and then, unlike you I don't spend all my time online trying in vain to prove what a bad guy I am to online commenters.

Meanwhile the so called validation of "claims" you're claiming now, was done by another of your alternate monikers, but that's a story for another day

It makes me laugh whenever I see your posts trying so hard. But please don't stop, keep at it. Be my comic relief

It's like watching a baboon in a zoo play with a mobile phone

nurey:
Good of you small boy, when you see your master, always backdown

Lol, you obviously have time this afternoon to exchange words with the number 1 loudmouthed emptyheaded name dropper in this section, whose wealth dwarfs Dangote's, but only online.

Just wait for his legion of alternate monikers to arrive and start quoting and liking his posts

Oh, one has already quoted him

So predictably unimaginative

Mad man

Na mad mad people full this nairaland, this OP na very good example

At your old age, your head still never correct. You dey find traffic asking for pictures abi?

ariesbull:
I haven't driven audi before but I also learnt that it is over engineered

Benz is over engineered.... My suv used a fibre optic for speakers instead of normal wires

The door cables and central locking system uses vacuum cables... U can imagine

The bonnet cable is complicated


Benz is over engineered but that is what you get driving a premium brand though

Fiberoptic cabling is a feature of several European manufacturers, not necessarily just Mercedes Benz. 2005+ Volvo Xc90s use a fiberoptic system for most vehicle electronics, including the sound system.

wilsonbuchi:
Lol. For the sake of making an inquiry, I will go on and remain polite about it. The reason for this thread is for opinions, no matter how big or little.
You were quick to pinpoint I mentioned 4 cars but I actually mentioned 3, clearing stating that one out of the 3 isn’t an option for me. Getting to the bottom, it was just obvious l was tied between two cars.
You can actually read and overlook if you have no contribution, boss.

To nurey and arrghmed, thanks so much for your opinions. ��

If you stick around this section you'll come to learn that there are several posters here who contribute absolutely nothing of value to discourse, and whose primary aim is to troll and get a rise out of other people, often achieved by making the most noise. The person who quoted you and who you responded to, is near the top of that list.

Regarding your enquiry, uber would only be economically feasible with vehicles which have lower engine capacities, which tend to be 4 cylinder vehicles (i4, not V4). Which would be the Camry, based on your list. The 2010 Camry has a 2.5l engine, might also not be the most suitable Uber vehicle.

For personal use, I suppose your personal preferences would dictate your choice. V6s almost always offer better performance, the Lexus would certainly be a more refined vehicle than the Camry.

Rushpawa:
But if it is snake now and yansh, you people would have replied. Very useless blog.

Lol, you are not very smart. Weren't you the one that posted a thread about your badly damaged CRV a while back and when people contributed with honest opinions and suggestions you insulted them, now you want responses

You go old

Good evening guys.

Please yall do me a favour. Please try both numbers if it'll ring.

That vehicle isn't 2012. A 2012 Corolla has sharper edges as against the almost curved edges of the 2010.

The lights (head lamps and rear lights) of the 2010 and 2012 are also different.

Take a look at the screenshots I have posted and see the dash of a 2010 and that of a 2012.

Obviously you either do not know how to read, or you have difficulty comprehending things you read. I clearly explained that the OP modified the original title of this thread, and even showed you proof with screenshots of the original thread showing a 2010 Corolla.

What makes you think you're the only one that knows the difference between Corolla model years, all those photos you posted are completely unnecessary.

Go back to the post I made and you quoted and read it again. Or don't read it, I'm not really interested.

mexxy1:
The vehicle advertised here is NOT a 2012 Toyota Corolla and the VIN he posted IS NOT the VIN of this vehicle advertised here.

Oga professor chief expert, at the time I made my last post on this thread, the thread title was a 2010 Corolla for sale. Which was why the person I quoted asked for the vin of a 2010 Corolla and then incorrectly claimed he was sent a 2012 Corolla vin.

The OP has changed the thread title, for whatever reason.

Depsui:
You don't care when igbos abuse other tribes, you just don't want anyone to abuse igbos. You're a genius.

First, my post was not for you or people like you, my post was directed to the moderators. As a matter of fact based on this nonsense you've posted, my post was specifically about bigots and online tribal warlords like you.

Second, as I said, I don't care about whataboutisms, so please take your whataboutism and shove it up your behind.

You have a productive day now.

Oh wow! That's wonderful!

Hiss. Nonsense.

chigodo:
I asked for VIN of the 2010 corolla you posted and you sent me 2012 VIN. Solomon the wise man.

Fulani crimes are very bad but their crimes pales into nothing as compared to the ones done by Igbos. Igbos commit treason and that is punishable with death under the constitution.

An average Igbo is very wicked and will be looking forways to destroy you. Never trust an Igbo.

Yeebos are hated all over the world. Yeebos are executed in Asian and Arab countries all the time and the simple reason is because of you people's activites.

Go to any prison in this country and see that Yeebos are the highest number of prisoners.

Yeebos havecontinue to give Nigeria a bad name home and abroad.

Yeebos are executed in Asian and Arab countries all the time and you say you don't know what your people do?

Lalasticlala, Mynd44, Seun

I am specifically calling you three out

How can the three of you see this kind of bile being posted on this forum, day in, day out, and do absolutely nothing about it?

I don't care about whataboutisms, this other person posted this, or posted that. But just human decency is enough here.

Why do you permit this sort of disgusting and foul nonsense to remain up on this forum?

Make it make sense. Why has this person not been banned forever? How can you continue to tolerate this poster and posters like him, no matter what the target of their mentally unstable hate posts are?

It is simply impossible for this to continue indefinitely. Something has to give, one way or the other.

Like i previously said, Toyota is built without Durability in mind,

Yes you can use vw for transport due to it Durability.. but if you are to use Toyota just keep your atm with you & monitor how much goes in for fix & services in a year.

The Bush and uncivilized black man who enjoys reveling in his own ignorance and has resisted all attempts to emancipate himself from mental slavery says "Toyota vehicles are built without durability in mind" and "No one in his right mind will compare German machines with Japanese, India, France or Nigeria coupled vehicles"

laivwire:
This happened on my way back from Kaduna to Abuja this January. Being quite wary of the insecurity on the road I made to leave around 10am and planned to spend the minimum time on the road.

Consequently, I had to engage in some mild commando style driving so I averaged a speed of about 140km/h. I didn't stay long behind any vehicle and always aimed to have a clear road ahead. Thankfully we were just 2 in the car and there wasn't much load in the trunk so the vehicle picked up nicely.

The drama happened shortly after Jere, road wasn't too good but not bad either. Mr Mercedes must have linked up from Jere and was headed towards Abuja as well coasting at about 110km/h using eye judgement. Based on comparative speed, I soon caught up behind them, honked for an opening as two cars were beside each other and made to leave them behind as I passed.

From my observation, the car was packed with about 5 men, windows all wound up with AC. Car definitely looked new as well. From Mr C-class behavior, I judged he wasn't too happy as I attempted to reeze past him. He tended to pick up speed once I found an opening but a pothole in front forced him to slow down. Fortunately my left side of the road was clear with a much smaller ditch which I cleared with ease (thanks to wide tyres) as made up the hill as it was kind of a valley section. Mr C-class as I'll like to refer to him from now on, made to catch up with me thereafter but I guess the load he was carrying and the fact that we were going uphill gave me an advantage. I noticed he was trying to catch up so I turned off Eco mode, switched off the AC and stomped the vehicle to about 160km/h leaving him behind fast.

Just a few kilometers ahead, the road became smooth and straight and I surged forward, overtaking other vehicles and gaining a good lead. By now, I didn't see Mr Benz again...or did I? Yes I did! Although he was merely a small dot, I noticed there was something different, he had started gaining momentum. Evidently he had joined the good patch of road.

This reminded me of an experience in 2017. I was driving a Toyota Hilux as well but the 2007 year. A stubborn white w202 started gaining on me from the rear on a smooth tarred road and no matter how hard I tried (I do a lot of spirited driving), this guy gradually reined himself in, caught up with me, overtook and gave me a wide gap till he was invisible. Seems I'm having a deja vu.

Well, I stormed up to about 170km/h but for where, Mr Mercedes had cleared all the cars between us and was right on my tail. He caught up and passed! I gaped at my speedometer as he overtook and saw that I was topping 180km/h but at the speed with which he overtook, this guy was nothing less than 210 -220km/h. He had cracked open his windows a bit, definitely AC is now off and his tailpipe was squirting water vapour like crazy. I was stumped man. Dude didn't stop until he had at least 10 cars between us. I jejely came back to 140km/h and carried my L with pride.

Truly, German cars deserve the respect.

Modified: I was driving a 2020 Toyota Hilux

You're not just a dangerous driver, engaging in street/motorway racing for the adrenaline rush and imaginary bragging rights, with no regard for other road users, but you're also racing a sedan with a pickup truck.

I quoted your post where you suggested a comparison between two vehicles, to point out an obvious flaw.

As for that clown that claims to have owned every Marque under the sun, every now and then it's important to put empty headed noisemakers like that in their place.

His wings have been clipped, his madness go reduce small for now.

I didn't want to do this......


This is my first and last Honda I will ever buy, I have had nothing but problems with the car from day one. Headlights fell out, interior is falling apart, windows have broke, power window motors went out, transmission is going out, had the cheapest tires money could buy on the car when purchased. Heater vent went bad, radio controls are barely working, the car is horrible, bought it for its good mileage and reliability. Haven't encountered either one.

As for you, these your online copy and paste tactics, don't you ever get tired of them? Eh Weyreypey?
