patwilly: I enjoin all forum members to actively contribute my budget is 4.5M the choices I am looking at are these :
1. Toyota Rav 4, (2011) Nigerian used. A friend is actually convinced this is the car I should buy as it fits nicely in terms of prestige and functionality. However, I'm not fully convinced as per buying a Nigerian used car and also because I'm not really taken to the RAV4 as I see it as not a masculine car.
2. Toyota Camry 2011 or 2012 (muscle) : I like this car and if it falls within my budget I'd happily buy it. The only negative here is I've been wanting an SUV to be my first car considering Lagos roads etc so I'm not totally sold on the idea of getting this car.
3. Toyota Highlander full option (2007) Direct Belgium or Nigerian used: Now this is the car I I'm most taken to. However, Friends are of the opinion that it is an old car (being 2007) and is gradually being phased out. Also the fact the car does not exactly convey much in terms of prestige etc.
So that's it. I'd appreciate if forum members advice correctly on any of these three car models or recommend something else. Kindly highlight the merits/demerits of buying the foreign used or Nigerian used version of any car you'd recommend.
The attributes I'm looking out for are Functionality, ease of Maintenance, prestige/aesthetics of the car.

I appreciate you all. Do your research and look for a reputable car dealer who deals in cars. Get yourself a clean few months used 2012 Toyota camry sport version and thank me later. Don't go for any lexus, benz or BMW else you will regret your life. As for the Rav4, the only model I can advise you to buy that can suits a your lad is 2014 model upwards and you don't have the money. Lastly if you can top up the money to 5m then I will gladly advice you to go for Toyota venza V4 engine. It's way better than the camry but both cars are fuel economical, cheap maintenance and not one single fault to worry about. I have both cars. Although my Venza is v6 but the v4 of is even preferable than v6. Run away from Benz and Lexus. Both will send you to your village bro. 8 Likes |

Whatever you do, don't buy a nigerian used car except you know the owner very well. Since this would be your first car and considering your budget, I would suggest you go for a more recent Camry as it is very durable and cheap to maintain. Get someone you trust in the US or Canada to bid for you in a car auction and it's gonna save you 500k to 1m naira 4 Likes 2 Shares |
