Jasonudo:
Greetings Mr. Femmy.

Say I am looking for a vehicle; a mid size SUV; most preferred a Toyota; and I can sum to about #3.5, 000 000 to pay. what vehicle[non accidented], year, and mileage can you thus deliver at Lagos? What are the options? What make other than Toyota would you willfully recommend?

Thanking you
God bless

Jason

Lets start with some basics . .
How much driving do you do and what distance do you drive per day?
Are you particular about the Cylinders meaning are you OK with V8 or MUST it be a V6?
Must it be leather or you are kool with fabric interior
Also, is there anything else you will want to see in your ride?
Thanks for your time on our thread and you are appreciated

Jasonudo:


About the distance...say home to office and back; scanty leisure driving. Some month ends...I expect to make some 4 hours[to and fro trips]. So not so much driving and distance.
V6 is OK.
leather interior. But a neat black fabric [as one is 2008 Honda CRV...doesn't mean I am opting for a Honda] as long as the dash is not black coloured.
Not before 2006. Steering buttons, bright headlamps with fog lights, sunroof, trunk opens upward, I think factory fitted reverse cam would make a lot more luxury.

Also, what do I need to know about VW Tiguan. Parts, maintenance, reliability, the most problems.

Thanking you
God bless

Fhemmmy:


Thanks for you detailed response and lets break it down one by one
You backup camera, that is nice BUT that is something that is common in newer models and 3.5M Naira wont get you anything newer
Bright headlight is not a problem and buttons on the steering wheel should be OK too

Tiguan isn't bad and being a VW product, I expect Nigerian mechanics to be able to take care of it with ease, Parts are not expensive and cost of maintenance is low because it comes with a small engine

Jasonudo:


Thank you sir for your patience.
Considering our conversation, what rides are the options and with how much do I step up?
What is the cost of the Tiguan; year and trim?

Thanks
God bless
