eddy2farm: Pic For me, the side pillars should have been left and reinforced to make it like a bucket at the back. That way rear wobble at the rear would be eliminated at high speeds. I salute your DIY but it would have been cheaper to sell the Cherokee and use the money to buy a Ford ranger, Nissan frontier, kia Bongo, VW vanagon truck, Suzuki every truck etc. But the Cherokee would do light duty work because of the rare suspension wasn't made for heavy tonnage.

Lovelynife: Good afternoon to you all What can you advice a person moving from Hyundai santamo to buy Peugeot 307/206 or I should go for Nissan Almera pulse?. Please I need your professional advice on fuel, durability,cost of maintenance and finally cost of replacing of engine and gear I dont know about the 307 but if I am to choose between 206 and Almera I would pick the 206 because 1. The almera body falls apart easily the almera would look like scrap especially in areas with bad road and constant body touch like lagos. 2. Almera engine would eventually have cam and crankshaft sensor issues and would get you stranded if you dont know about it. Apart from that both vehicles are solid, strong and have affordable parts and they dont experience China unforeseen part failure like toyota. If you are bent on almera because of Japanese technology find Nissan Sentra instead its same as almera but well built than almera but since they use same engine learn about cam and crankshaft sensor. |

Olurich84: Good day guys. Respect to the auto gurus & everyone making nice contributions. Pardon me for this question because I know it would've been probably asked before. I need an urgent response to this question pls: I want to get a Nigerian used Toyota Camry (muscle). I need guidance on the best year model based on engine & gearbox reliability, easier maintenance & less problematic between the year 08 to 2012. Your quick responses will be greatly appreciated. 08 to 11 V6 2010 and 2011 i4 with 2.5L is the best for the camry XV40 |

Originalsly: Is it really more expensive? Can one presently import an 05/06 Lexus for N2.5 M (US $5OOO)? .... with N500/US$1? The price of a car should be tied to the value of the Naira. If I buy a Lexus today for N2.5M and tomorrow the Naira plunges to 1000/1 the value of my car should then be N5M. Our bank account... the buying power of the amount gets less as the Naira devalues. A man with car money in the bank in 2008 ... that money couldn't buy a keke in 2015 and the same money can't buy a motorbike today. You bought an 04 Camry for N1M in 2013 .... should you sell it for N1.5M today ... you're selling at a loss because it's worth a lot more today due to the value of the Naira. Let's always consider the present value of the Naira when considering the price of a car. Check nairaland for ES330 and see. Camry XV30 was between 1.2m to 1.8m depending on year and engine b4 Buhari now its 2m to 2.5 depending on trim and year. |

Dozieson: Bro are you sure Es330 2005 is 2.5m? Most I am seeing online is 2.8m You will not see all es330 at 2.5m your negotiating power and other factors would depend on price. If a 05 and 06 camry V6 is that price, its understandable |

Car Talk › Re: Can I Use Car Papers Given To Me By Previous Owner Of A Naija Used Car by nurey(m): 6:50pm On Sep 14, 2021 |
Kokomo: Hi guys, I need advise, if previous owner gave me his plate numbers and papers, how can I use it without being disturb by police, VIO and others road officers. I ask for the plate number cause to do plate number now na around 50k to 60k, the car seller plate number is still valid for about a year Yes you can. I used to drive an hyundai accent but I was stopped by police 4am in the morning heading to Ondo, I said it belonged to a friend and they asked me to call him then and there  they wanted to waste my time until an incident happened and they let me go. I drive a car in a womans name currently I just told them it belongs to my sister and memorize the name they always let me go, I will not do change of ownership for now because of fresh plate wahala from police to customs it's an interstate ride. For peace of mind change if you can afford it. |

DukeNija: ES of what year? 2008, 2009? Reliability? The ES 2008-11 is susceptible to transmission failure. Fuel economy and cost of ownership? Resale value? Oga please luxury is not the only metric for assessing a cars quality. The person who asked for assistance has been given, you dont know what we are discussing b4 jumping into the topic reason you are asking for year been compared. 08-11 ES was fitted with U660E transmission I dont know what you are talking about in transmission problem because if you know how many Toyota and Lexus carry that transmission you will not be debating about its reliability. |

Hold the accelerator for 1min at 2500 to 3000 rpms and watch the exhaust for smoke. If smoke is noticed oil is getting into the wrong place meaning the rings or valves needs to be looked at |

Interior build the Lexus wins, both utilities the same V6 engine. build quality the ES is well made too many plastic in the camry. Overall the ES is still a better vehicle to own |

He said I’m to pay for the car wash please how much does it cost to wash a Toyota engine and body like a complete wash . He is telling me that it is 8k please Nairalanders I need your advice . I paid 3.5 million naira for the car after which he told me I’m going to give him 100k for the car that his hotel bills and the amount he used to bring the car is 40k and plus the paint job they will do on the car everything is inside the 100k and now he is now telling me the 8k for the car and engine wash is not included in the 100k I have paid him 90k already but I feel he is trying to cheat me because it is my first time and I don’t really have experience. Nairalanders please help with your advice and suggestions. If you went online, saw a car and you were asked to pay for its delivery to you without physically seeing the car or knowing the owner to trace your transfer, my brother you just gave your money to charity. Don't pay for delivery of a vehicle you haven't seen or inspected yet. Godspeed bro |

laiza: The Honda has better fuel efficiency but durability and speed the Toyota 2014 is the best. It was designed for better performance than the previous model and it was specifically made in the year Japan was hosting drag racing tournament. That car brain box has 14 pins, it is not just a car, that is a machine. But if you can't maintain it best go for the Honda because it costs a lot to maintain and be mindful of the wheels of the Honda as all Honda cars have that problem. All these only you  funny comparing accord with camry |
