It’s The Rainy Season. What Regular Cars On Nigerian Roads Can Survive This? by Miee(op): 2:03pm On Jun 20, 2020

Two days ago we saw the Lekki floods. The boats are coming back again, lol. What car(s) do you own? Can they swim? What cars do you think will survive this period and what cars do you think won’t survive?

Personally, I think bmw are good cars but they seem to be failing us in the waters. Honda’s are not really a thing to write home about. Toyota’s have been great, slow and steady in the waters and they swim good. What’s your take?

My 03 Corolla seems to be doing well. I'm always scared when I'm about to dive into the pools of water though. The water reaches the level of the headlamp base at times.

Only thing I observed is that the wipers just come on on their own while I'm in the water. But this stopped when I replaced my faulty windshield washer pump.

That’s a good one. Toyota’s are known to be good swimmers.
