winner915:When buying a Peugeot it's is always better to buy the manual transmission, Peugeot and automatic nah bone of contention. I did say 206 I have driven it and I am very tall, it's comfortable for the driver but the rear passenger leg room suffers. 406 too is good, 407, 307 all these are within range of your budget. Peugeot doesn't like electrical abuse very sensitive, timing belt too needs replacement with original. Then if you can afford pp2000 for scanning the car, you will enjoy your Peugeot. |

nurey:Hmmm why is it that you don't recommend cars that gives peace of mind to the owner?! |

nurey:You never considered that the person you are advising may get stuck in the middle of nowhere with an angry Peugeot..... Or maybe it's just you been narcissistic. |

weyreypey:@weyreypey, I don laugh loose weight for this response I swear infact just showed my friend and wife and d laugh Neva still stop. Abeg explain Wetin you mean by "devilish deception" in the guys of a vehicle.......o boi eeehhhh, all highlander owners Una go need deliverance.....and as for me, highlander no go see my tail light laye laye...... |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kingreign(m): 10:18am On Jun 30, 2019 |
winner915:Yes the highlander wasn't marketed as an offroad vehicle, it wasnt even built to be one. It was meany to be driven on roads. Bar the absence of a locking differential and transfer case and proper LSD, that crossover is good for what it is. So what's the devilish deception about it? Ignore weyreypey who's never owned a highlander. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(op): 10:22am On Jun 30, 2019 |
kingreign:I have no idea why anyone would ever think of the Highlander as anything resembling an off-road vehicle. Isn't it just a bigger, lifted Camry? A Honda Pilot is way more capable off-road. 4runner if Toyota is the choice. There's also nothing special or complicated about the Highlander. No idea what that lunatic is talking about. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kingreign(m): 10:27am On Jun 30, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang:No mind folks manipulating Toyota reasons for launching the Highlander. |

nurey:Thanks bro. So btw the EOD 05 and the DC 06-07 which is more cheaper to maintain especially in terms of fuel economy and parts purchase? |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by adunnikay: 10:14pm On Jul 02, 2019 |
Bosses. I greet u all. I have taken time to read most of the important through ad and am learning. Weldone. Please what advice would you give to me on maintaining a VW Passat 2009 FSi. I hope I am not making a wrong decision buying the car? Please advice. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kingreign(m): 11:46pm On Jul 02, 2019 |
adunnikay:You actually did I'm afraid. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by AutoMoTech(m): 12:04am On Jul 03, 2019 |
adunnikay:1. Get a very competent auto technician who is an expert in VW/Audi. 2. Read up online, familiarise yourself with common faults with thia particular model. Just to know more about the car. Particularly the engine. 3. Stick to recommended oil grade. 4. STay away from kazeem. Dont throw parts when the car has a fault. Find a professional not a magician. 5. Join online forums a d seek information on your particular car. Ask questions too even if its stoopid 6. Before any repairs ensure U carr out through scan of the faulty system. Avoid kazeem. Dont throw parts. I heard that engine can be very expensive. So be careful to take great care of her. A friend uses a 2009 audi A4, similar engine 2.0 TSi. Serves him superbly. He prefers it for journeys compared to his honda. So have no fear bro. Thats a great sweet ride U got there. Congratulations. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by AutoMoTech(m): 12:13am On Jul 03, 2019 |
MDDarah84:I believe they use similar parts. Just the body panel design and interior might be different but electricals and engine seem to be same. Make oga Nurey come clarify sha. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by jceesquare(m): 5:59am On Jul 03, 2019 |
kingreign:Common, it's not that bad. The car looks great and he would enjoy it if he has a good VW specialist and not those Itire/Lawanson hulks. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:07am On Jul 03, 2019 |
MDDarah84:There is only minor exterior difference both maintenance should be same as 95% parts are shared. same 2.4L i4 and same 3.0L V6 gear for 05 to 07 is solid than 03 and 04. |
| Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:12am On Jul 03, 2019 |
adunnikay:people are afraid of Volkswagen and it's not far fetched, they majorly have electrical wahala some minor while others are major, the vehicle is luxurious enough so has some high-tech gadgets and wiring that will fail after a long use (nothing last forever). My advice to you though is to always work with a scan tool when faults arise like car in limp mode, miss firing etc look for a professional who knows about VW/AUDI or you research symptoms of a problem the car develops and guide kazeem on what to do while monitoring with close marking.

jceesquare:The day someone's Passat cc engine shut down, no specialist mech in Uyo, Lagos, Abuja or PH could resurrect it. Replaced engine no start, replaced every replaceable, no start. Omor na tow they towed it to be scrapped o after 2years of sitting and laughing at him while milking him dry. |

kingreign: ![]() Blame the village people for that. It's definitely not ordinary. |

winner915:This would be an interesting comparison. I favor the FX to come out top in raw power and drive thrill after driving a friends own from Lagos to Benin, and the Pilot to win in practicality and fuel economy. Nurey and HeavenlyBang oya work don set |
