Thanks for this Sir

The Civic goes for 650k the Corolla is 1.4m

What do you think about the great difference between the prices? Is there something sinister about it?

You have an abused car. Not a Honda problem.

Thanks allot

Hmmmmm, underneath? Please sir can you explain more on that?

How can I detect that?

That's you. You sound like a meticulous owner that would go out of your way to order OEM parts or top grade aftermarket parts for repairs. 90% of Nigerians (many oof whom rely on the fictional Kazeem mechanic) would be satisfied with replacing with low quality China made aftermarkets, or worse "tokunbo". All we know is to start the car engine. The other day a Range Rover drove past me with an obviously faulty fan belt. He was accelerating fast so the noise can quickly "go". In my head I was calculating his future bill when the engine fails when he can just replace the failed fan belt which is cheaper to fix

Paddy Skywalker,

Pls go for Toyota Corolla 2004. I travelled with from Ondo Town to Portharcourt over 278 miles with 40ltrs fuel.

I would say try out any of the cars first to get your first hand opinion.

Buy the car of your choice, use it for uber/bolt then you can know if the car you picked is good or not.

if you don't want your front tyre to pull out don't buy the honda

skywalker240:

Please can you give me reasons

Acidosis:



What's the point comparing a 17 year old Nigerian used car? Both will give you problems. So just prepare your mind.

Good Morning great gurus,

Please am currently trying to get a car as am planning to start Bolt or Uber as a side hustle, by the special grace of God, but that's not why i created this thread.

I just want to know which is reliable, durable, that can withstand pressure (on the engine) in short better overall between the two cars, personally I have read alot of reviews here from you guys on the both ride, and I am considering getting the Civic, but my friends keep telling me Corolla is the best worldwide but then I reply them that the Honda is cheaper and even more beautiful, but they're not trusting the cheap price, some even mock me jokingly that na who no get money de tok say beer no sweet (what is it with the average Nigerian and Toyota sef )

Truth be told, am a bit suspecting and having reservation's for the price of the Honda Civic

Frankly to be honest, am a novice when it comes to auto's

I just want a wider view on both and possibly the advantages one have over the other

Note the Honda is a manual transmission while the Corolla is auto

So I bring my case to the legends over here, what's your take?

Cost o parts replacement

Fuel economy

How rugged they are

How easy for mechanic to work on

Resale value
Thanks

If you are buying an automatic, stick to 2004 /2005, if na manual, you can buy any year. Most people think every Honda product pull leg and the worst part is people advising against the car haven't use the car before. I haven't change my fuel pump before so no cause for alarm. If your are buying manual transmission, ensure there is always oil in the gearbox, I changed mine because I drove it long without gearoil, which affected the synchro, making the 2nd gear to pop out to neutral, so I decided to change mine. I use mine for bolt too. Below is the pics.

Most hondas are abused by previous owners. Majority use all manner of useless engine oil and gear oil. Also, honda tend to have fuel pump and suspension problems. Speaking as a current honda owner
