Bosses in the house. Please I need your recommendations on which car to pick among these cars. They are all tokunbo cars and are within my budget. I know the Camry is more reliable but considering the year of manufacture not sure if it's the right call.

2013 Hyundai sonata

2012 ford edge

2009 Toyota Camry

Except you're getting 2010 Camry i4 or 09 Camry v6; 2012 or 2011 Accord i4 would be better in maintenance to Sonata and Ford.

Very durable for the business. I am also into bolt but I drive a Honda civic 2007 model. And most people use Corolla for the busines and no complain.

Is good too but frequent if fan belt change if the adjuster is not in good shape, plugs, coils and servicing that's the only issue.

I'll advice that you take the benz if

1. You're not in Lagos[cos of bad roads]
2. Its a Kompressor[4cylinder]

If otherwise, honda isn't bad.
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Benbastic: 10:44pm On May 02, 2023

Normal c230 is v6. Not fuel friendly and you know what it means. Kompressor is 4 cylinders.

The car has no issues if you pay attention to it.
Doesn't break down any how
The car has a lot of censors and isn't flood-friendly.
Its a beautiful ride and your clients will enjoy the speed,stability and comfort.
You'll get a lot of offline trips if you use it.

You are pH, roads get flooded quite a lot during the rainy season.

Do not use Mercedes c230 for Uber. I repeat do not use it for Uber.

Get the Corolla and get in line with the others.

There is a reason every tom dick and harry are using it for Uber and they are not all stupid.

The last guy I know in pH that tried to use a c class for Uber sold it off after 6 months.

He couldn't keep up with the repairs.

Thanks.

The civic is the more durable option but I don't think your budget can get you a very good Nigerian used 2013 civic.
The elantra is also okay if you can get a low mileage and un-abused one.
Also, you will need a very good technician with modern tools to maintain anyone you go for.
Shalom.
