jidobaba:No need to run. I have been using one since 2015 and in top shape |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by weyreypey: 9:51am On Dec 22, 2019 |
jidobaba:Audi A4 B7 is a great buy. Ensure you get the Tiptronic transmission... Or manual transmission. A lovely design...the interior is something no Corolla past or present will ever match... The fuel economy is crazy for the 4 cylinder engine, the B7 is designed to be more spacious than the B6. |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by ladykhandy(f): 1:00am On Dec 27, 2019 |
Hi gurus , I need a review on Hyundai Elantra 2014 model |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Philadelphia: 8:30am On Dec 27, 2019 |
ladykhandy: W don't really do a review here actually, we do a comparison (I'm sure you know the difference). However, go for that car and you won't regret the decision as long as it is a direct tokunboh with a good auto check score. Make sure it is not the 2012 model or 2013 model being sold to you. I got a brand new 2015 Elantra in 2016 and I have done only servicing since. Changed brake pads just only once. It is a nice car and it drives smoothly. But heyy! Parts are expensive. I repeat, parts are expensive! |

Skinnienigga: Be weary of the transmission. Apart from that, good vehicle |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by dicksonadams(m): 10:29am On Dec 27, 2019 |
Skinnienigga: If I were you I will avoid it... But if you have resources you can go for it... Just be on top maintenance and keep an eye & ear on the transmission |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 11:01am On Dec 27, 2019 |
Skinnienigga: Buy an RX330. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Skinnienigga(m): 11:04am On Dec 27, 2019 |
nurey: Okay, would do! Thanks |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 1:12pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
kong200:yes 2.4L only mistaken identity on my part and also TSX on your part ![]() |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kong200: 2:39pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
nurey: Lol, true. You've confirmed to be that it's a very good car and ticks all boxes from reliability to durability, cheap maintenance and parts etc. Does it have a good resale value? Compliments brother |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Philadelphia: 3:15pm On Dec 27, 2019 |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:07pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
kong200: It has a slightly high resale value than it's corresponding Accord. I personally prefer European vehicles to american, they are more classy and we'll built than their counter part 1 Like |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kong200: 5:08pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
nurey: Could you give me the names of the European vehicles? Acura is Japanese if I understand perfectly, would you classify it as European or American? |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:13pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
Greenarrow01: You will get a Nissan Micra tokunbo for that price but it would be a RHD you still have to convert. You will get a Peugeot 206 tokunbo for that price but it would be RHD and you still have to travel to Northwest or Northeast of Nigeria to get one. Though with 700k you can still get a Nigerian used for that price, I will recommend only 4 vehicles Nissan Micra 05 below Peugeot 206 06 below Kia picanto 05 to 10 Kia Rio 05 to 2011 inspect the specimen and make sure Engine and transmission is in proper working order you can get good unit for less than your budget way less use the remaining change to do timely maintenance (transmission drain, timing belt change, coolant change, new sets of tyres, oil change and partial paint and spray). with those Engine you will be riding 5 to 6L per 100km if you are very good 1200naira can take you 2days to and fro. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:16pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
kong200: The TSX is Honda Accord Europe the normal EOD and DC weren't sold in Europe. You know Europe has its own variant of cars eg Camry US - Avensis Europe Sienna US - Previa Europe Corolla US - Yaris Europe Honda Civic US - Acura CSX/EL Europe or Honda FIT etc etc |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Greenarrow01(m): 5:22pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
nurey: Thanks nurey.. I actually live in north Nigeria. Kaduna state. My neighbour wanted to sell 206 to me... I ran away..thinking..oh it is ladies car.. She changed the tyres about two months before then. Someone else bought the car What do you mean by 1200l Is it 1200 litres or 1200naira worth of petrol. The distance is about 50km or soless than 60 |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:35pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
Greenarrow01: 1200 naira not Litre. I have driven a manual 206 from dambatta to Kano to and fro journey, I bought 500naira worth of fuel when fuel was 87 naira or was it 97 naira the guage was at reserve tank, I drove 150km journey to and fro and the guage went back to reserve. the only traffic was at the murtala Muhammad way where the street light is. The car is very fuel efficient though I can't tell what engine was in it but I can say it is not more than 1.5L Engine because it actually economize fuel like my Almera I used for same distance. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by kong200: 6:27pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
nurey: So the TSX is basically EOD if i may understand you well? |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 6:32pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
kong200: Let me put it this way, the Honda Accord EOD and DC, Acura TSX and Accord Europe share similar parts for 03 to 07. Now the Honda Accord Japanese/Europe was sold in North America and Canada as an upscale ACURA TSX. Acura TSX and Accord Europe have identical design. for that year but you know inorder to sell it as a premium brand, the TSX would have some accessories the Accord Euro would have as an option.
