Can Someone with 800-900k as budget get a direct turkunbo mini Bus with steering at the left side.
Air Conditioner is not necessary.

You may get but the vehicle would be cut and join or real english butchered and rewelded

direct LHD without it been butchered is very expensive due to customs duty, the butchered ones pay either CKD fee, Spareparts fee or exercise which are far cheaper than custom duty

[quote author=xpensivealex post=94362330][/quote]That is an honda engine, you are good to go with the purchase if other things check out

Josiko:
Curently don't have this car but a serious buyer needs it Asap. If you have a well used car identified above with no faults and damage, kindly hit me up on whatsapp. 08135146934.

Buyer budget: 1.1m

Ps: make sure the car is in good condition and you are in for a business.

Thanks

Sorry to burst your bubble, Lexus never made a ES330 in 2003, you can only get a ES300 for that year bracket

Direct LHD with AC intact cost nothing less than 1.5m

RHD unconverted cost 750k

Now how much you buy depends on make, year, engine and transmission available also the hand drive.

Good day to gurus in the house, please what is your piece of advice on Rover 620i, I learnt it share same engine with Honda, but does it have any scaring issue like electrical or leg issue like honda?
Please I need a thorough review before I make a great mistake for my first car.

Rover 600 series shares parts with US honda civic 199x and honda civic Europe 1996 upwards. If the river 620i is fitted with the Honda 2.0 engine buy it, if the 620i is fitted with a T series rover engine and slammed inside is a turbo kit, carry your bags and baggages and evaporate from the car.

just open the bonnet and inscribed would be VTEC for the Honda engine

Bro u d mind these men, simple look at d interior and engine has shown is nt a 2010 model bt d bent on scamming with such rediculous price

cc nurey
cc kingreign

The engine is a 2azfxe. The car is probably an hybrid Camry, it could also be a 2010 sha. The engine cover normally should have been black, but 2azfxe in australia market is silver with mostly Lexus inscribed not VVti as seen.

Please house, i am a newbie. I need information about Toyota Corolla Verso 2005-2006 with automatic transmission. I know some are RHD to LHD converted but i am looking at original LHD.

Does the car have any known peculiar issue?
Are the parts easily available and affordable just like Corolla?
I read the transmission is CVT, is it something i should worry about?

Kindly advise so that i will not make any mistake.

I don't know what CVT was installed but

honda CVT pass mark

mitsubishi CVT pass mark

Nissan CVT japa/Run

Toyota CVT unknown.

but the Corolla verso won best mpv during it's time for the targeted market so I did say buy it

Posesivo:
Hello,

I have this three automobiles as an option to take from next week.

• The Acura MDX 2005

• The Kia Sorento 2004

• The VW Touareg

Folks let me know your thoughts on this vehicles

Thanks in advance.

MDX is your best bet. Toureg is expensive on the maintenance list and requires a qualified technician.

kia sorento is dicey

Pls I need the comparison between Camry 2003-2006 V6 engine and 2.4


Also, I noticed the reverse light position used to be different...some at the middle and some at the extreme, pls what's the difference between the two?

middle prefacelift

end is facelift 04 upwards or so.

3.3L V6 more fuel efficient than 3.0L V6.

2.4L i4 is more fuel efficient than both but that engine was known to burn oil and

2.4L i4 is more fuel efficient than both but that engine was known to burn oil and most people would say avoid it. But if you see a well maintained minimal mileage one and you are good with maintenance the 2az would last.

ebby9z:
Wow. Thanks a lot for responding. Do you have a range of years I should hopefully go for?
With your response, I'll consider buying Honda Civic then.

02 to 09 but condition of the specimen should be your priority when you find one within your budget. so ensure inspection is done by a competent technician

Thank God for coming across this thread!

Please, I intend to buy a Naija used car next month and I'm stuck between

My Budget is 800k-1m

I work from home but I intend to be using it for Uber ( side hustle) once in a while.

I'm seeing a lot of people say they prefer Honda Civic to Corrolla.

I had either Corrolla or Camry Big Daddy in mind before.

The reason I was avoiding Honda is because of the infamous ball joint issue.

It's a first car, please epp mai laif.

God bless you.

Civics don't have ball joint issue since their inception

Half the responses I get seem like they are in response to someone else hence my confusion. I also noticed a shift in the response when the responder realizes I'm female. Am I The Asshole?

No you are not an a****le you are experiencing reply of shock of occupation. Example when you go to the buka and find out the cook is a man in Nigeria, it surprise us or when you enter a public bus and find a woman as the driver or conductor.

Now the manner of approach and level of enlightenment will determine the response one will get.

I want to talk about BMW 3 series as well as the 5series in comaparism, but focusing more on 3series because that is the type I always see around, now I want to know the the real things about BMW that made it look like a big luxury car, and how good are they in Nigerian roads compare to Japanese cars, are they very reliable as Mercedes benz, are their spare parts readily available in our markets, why do most people avoid BMs and volks even when they are regarded as German machines, I love the 3series but I am scared of getting one because I don't see many of it on our roads,

Depends on what model you intend to get, I love the E46 and from what I know about it, the engines are reliable from the 4cylinder to the top of the line M3, but the 07 upwards E90 is an owners nightmare, people are advice to avoid it like a plague if you can.

But information on BMW are bound on the BMW thread on Cartalk lots of guru to allay your fears and advise right

NinaJoy:
scrolling through car section as a female is tiring too��,so what you thought of isn't that bad,,maybe you should consider doing or creating a topic or trend,,"WOMEN AND CARS"

this trend women can find any help they need and talk about cars too� and learn about it,,not any small thing they will call their husband�‍♀️�‍♀️,,if this is a great idea, if anyone starts it better give me a mention,thank you.

Cartalk is a family we have females here vast in car knowledge like radauto, mvpgoddess, etc. You can always start a topic and people would discuss but gender based topics can sometimes be boring and not entertaining

Oga you de try.

This below should be VQ35DE?

But this 2002 Infiniti QX4 (engine shown below) gulps more gas than FX35 having VQ35DE

cc: heavenlybang

FX35 is a CUV in AWD or RWD while QX4 is a RWD or 4WD SUV. QX4 is a 4speed auto while FX35 is a 5speed auto.

Alot of other factors contribute to why the FX35 has a better fuel economy than the QX4.

stock to stock the fx is better in fuel economy but both cars a way different, the fx is a sport tuned CUV while the QX is geared more at off-road vehicle.

so pick the appropriate one for your use

Dem Don solve the perennial oil leak and Oil burn and Cam shaft sensor problems?

has Toyota solved their boring design and old cargo 2gr usage?

it would take Benz another 10years + to build a C class AMG to best this 400hp wind chaser.

Nissan giving Benz headache year in year out.

That is a 2.5L 2ARFE not the 2.4L 2azfe

reliability the MDX trump here, even though it may experience gear issues, if well taken care of, it will last.

Affordable maintenance MDX

Available parts MDX

Available mechanics MDX

Resale value FX35

6 and 7 FX is better.

if left for me, I will pick a FX35 because it is a performance vehicle, commands respect as old as it is. Better looking than the MDX to me, it's an INFINITI, everybody wants to own one

naijadrivablog:
From my findings, QX4 consumes more fuel then FX35. Is it not the same Engine they use? VQ35DE

@heavenlybang

The engine are a bit different in the internal and external pathways, QX4 is a 240hp while FX35 boost upto 260hp.

The QX4 is an SUV while FX35 is a CUV, fuel economy of both would be relatively close especially in the city economy, but the FX may trump a bit in the highway economy.
