Sorry for your loss.


My BMW car was broken into sometime ago. The window on the driver's side was smashed. They ransacked the interior, broke open the pigeon hole and opened the bonet.

Luckily my car battery (100amps) was not seen. I got to the scene, got into my car, started my car and drove away.

I hope you find the right brainbox.

The car is just a cheap match box with little to offer aside fuel economy. Now you'd be tagged as uber while driving one because the car na uber / taxify favorite grin.

This is why I can never buy a Toyota. lipsrsealed lipsrsealed. It attracts thieves like the way cattles attracts egrets. Do you by any chance have the part number on the former brain box that would be a good place to start.

VIN number will actually be a better start, I don't think anybody checks or takes note of part number except when defective & looking for replacement.

Wow. Twice in one week in the same car? Friend of ours' Corolla is sitting in our shop over the same thing! Trying to get her one but ours are expensive because they are by Cardone plus the time delay. I can get them third party we used to use in Houston but I'm hesitant to import because of difficulty if it's defective.

I'm not a fan of diesels in Nigeria. Like someone pointed out, our diesel quality is quite poor–PMS is already bad enough, even–and I'm not sure how that engine will handle it. Plus there's the issue with maintenance of a diesel engine...

That said, you should be fine. Just check for stations with the best quality diesel. Look for people with luxury cars running on diesel and ask them how they go about it.

Congrats, bro. Enjoy your torquey little bastard. wink

Re: See What Corrola Hunters Did To My Car by Jakumo(m): 9:54am On Aug 25, 2018
As a non-Toyota car owner, I am curious to learn how one can identify a "Corola Hunter", whose expertise in recycling parts from temporarily abandoned Toyota cars, is both fast and efficient, as described by the OP, and illustrated meticulously with copious photographic evidence tendered here for our perusal.

Given that Nairaland readers are now aware that Toyota Hunters exist, how soon can we expect to hear of Mercedes Hunters, BMW Hunters and maybe even Okada Hunters gracing the streets of Nigeria ?

In my capacity as a fully pledged member of the Cane-Rat Hunters and Babalawo League of Venerated Gentlemen, statutorily imbued with all vested powers therein, I would now like to find out how I can go about qualifying for at least honorary executive-level membership, in the Corolla Hunters Association, The Royal Fraternity of Areola Inspectors, or any other renowned organization of equal standing in Nigeria and the general diaspora.

Thank you and God bless Nigeria.

Nah, my ES330 suits me well for now, and I'll upgrade to a G35 soon anyways.

Kingreign may be interested, though.
