I Need A Temporary Car - Please Advise by Mayfrank(op): 2:13pm On Feb 12, 2023

Hello guys. I want to buy my first car. But I plan to use it for under 6-8 months then resell it. Heard toks are a lot better than Nigerian used and hold good value.

Please suggest good cars for me. Budget is 4M max. I would have preferred an SUV but I doubt I can find any within my budget.

If you buy a toks vehicle, the moment you slap a Nigerian plate on it, it loses at least 25% of its purchase price.
Avoid that by buying a Naija-used 2012 Camry after proper inspection.
Toyota sells easily, Camry is in demand. Sport sells fastest of all Camrys.

Thanks a lot. I can get a used 2012 Camry sports for my budget?

Where do people get all this money from? It’s baffling to be honest, yet we claim there’s no money in the country. God bless me o

That is a good option but does BM sell fast like Toyota? Remember he just wants to use temporarily and resell quickly. I will suggest he should go for something like RAV 4 either Foreign or Naija used since he says he prefers SUV.

TOKs are generally more reliable, but you can get a good Nigerian used car online too.
