| Is It Ok Using A Minibus (Korope) As A Family Car? by surrogatesng(op): 11:14pm On Mar 24, 2022 |
Is it ok using a minibus as a family car? I saw a minibus today which i fancied.It comes with a factory third row seat The design is not common and i plan on customizing it and putting alloy rims. Both i and my wife have cars of our own,and we are expecting a fourth baby.i am afraid that a sedan will not easily fit six of us. Is it advisable to buy or i should just save money and buy sienna. Another reason why i want to huy the minibus is its fuel economy and availability of parts. I also want to know if i register the minibus with a private number will i need to install a speed limiter on it? Pics of vehicle attached

It's a vehicle that will serve you not minding the fact that it is used mostly for commercial purposes. If it meets your budget and purpose,go for it. |

Strange. It's a bus, a no fancy bus. Some couple of savings could add to what already have to buy this 'family bus' to aid you buy a nicer family car like the sienna. This is the kind of 'family bus' you drive your family to a function and everyone by the road keeps flagging you down shouting 'Area 1', 'Obalende', 'CMS' |

So you want to live the rest of your life wishing you did something or actually saying YES, I did it ? I'm sure you saw hundreds of Siennas before you settled on this. The Sienna isn't a bad ride, don't get me wrong but I can see you want something different so why not go for what you want and have that fulfillment itch scratched off ? Next week, you can decide to go for a 2022 Sienna and nobody will begrudge you

You can go for it but make sure you get a clean one. Install bigger rims and tyres, apply light tint on the side glasses for privacy. Though I would have preferred the Suzuki to this one. The Suzuki looks much more appealing. I have some units available for sale

I don’t tell people what vehicle you buy. That being said I owned one for well over a year in Ibadan. The 4WD was a life saver. Parts were an issue because it’s not as common as the Suzukis. This one is rear engine. Good luck. |
