I Want To Buy My First Car, I Need Sincere Advice by abuc: 3:58pm On Feb 10, 2017 |
Good day Great Minds, In a couple of weeks, I will be buying my first car but do not want to make mistake about it. I don't have much experience with cars and that is the main reason I need sincere advice from those with car experience. I want review on the following cars: Honda EOD Toyota Matrix Golf 4 In terms of low cost maintenance, low fuel consumption and durability; which of those cars or any other car will you recommend for a first time car owner? I await good recommendations and reviews. |

abuc: the Toyota matrix is a good car anytime any day. especially the one that come with the corolla engine(xr). the Honda is good too if you live in a city with manageable roads cos Honda don't like bad roads. as for me I'll go for the Honda because of comfort and other reasons. the golf4 is a no no for me 3 Likes |

ogawisdom: What's with how much he has? He has mentioned the cars his money can buy. So what do you need his financial information for? Advise him on the 3 cars mentioned. Simple and short or go away. Naija people. 9 Likes |

Greene66: Dnt be silly u can't start looking to buy a car if u dnt ve a budget, ur budget determines d kind of car u can afford so it is the number one factor to consider. listing some cars doesn't exactly do d job. I ve already moved to other threads b4 ur needless mention, maintain ur Lane and stop quoting ppl up and down as if u r jobless 2 Likes 1 Share |

chuka5000: Thanks for your advice. I live in Lagos and roads is definitely manageable. Can you be specific with the Toyota Matrix model that comes with corolla engine? Any reason why the Golf 4 is a no no for you? I just like Matrix and Golf 4 shape ![]() I appreciate your contribution |
Re: I Want To Buy My First Car, I Need Sincere Advice by abuc: 10:15am On Feb 11, 2017 |
lonelydora: Thanks for your input. I'm impressed with the manner you marketed EOD. Low maintenance and fuel consumption will be a big factor for me to determine which of the cars to settle for. |

ogawisdom: My friend shut your trap. Do you know whether or not he has gone into the market to price those vehicles and they fall into his budget? You are the one who shouldn't be silly. Learn to mind your business. Don't be nosy. He has a budget and his budget obviously covers the 3 cars mentioned. So talk in that range not wanting to know how much he has. I don't know why people never grow. It's a pity 5 Likes |

ogawisdom: Bruh, I think ur banter here is absolutely unnecessary and says a lot about your age and background. There's no reason to enquire about how much he has, having listed cars within his budget. You should offer advise based the information provided. No real reason to abuse anyone. 4 Likes |
Re: I Want To Buy My First Car, I Need Sincere Advice by ogawisdom(m): 11:44pm On Feb 11, 2017 |
bravolad: U r entitled to ur opinion, but asking for his budget was d most sensible question to ask. I dnt expect u all to agree with me BC most of u have low IQ in d first place. I will appreciate it if I dnt get further senseless mention as urs on this dead issue |
