nurey: I understand you better now but the parts shared between these cares are limited to 03-07, which leaves out 08 even tho they all look alike and termed 1st Gen TSX |

kong200: The second generation Acura TSX = Honda Accord Euro = Honda inspire (Japan) = Evil Spirit. most Honda vehicles share parts from Engine to transmission, it's majorly Acura TL and RL that are a bit different to a degree. but Acura TSX corresponds with same year accord |

nurey: Does your statement in bold not contradict your recommendation earlier? It's not the only reliable car? Sure! Yet, it didn't make the list of your "reliable" cars. Do you want us to compare the reliability and maintenance of the said 99 Toyota Corolla with same model of cars you put up there? Year for year? I bet you don't want to go down that lane with me bro. |

Greenarrow01:a (non abused) peugeot 206 is fuel economically great. even the 1.6L engine that i drive on a daily basis gives 10L/120km city drive with mad traffic. there other cars that are fuel efficient as well. |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by NobleEngineer(m): 9:50pm On Dec 27, 2019 |
weyreypey:the automatic drive of that engine is slow and less fuel economical. if you're a speed person, you will have to throttle down to get the speed you want thus fuel suffers. The manual is more responsive. However, the 307 with EW10 engine is good both for auto and manual. fast and safe. pls i take God beg you, that 2008 Peugeot 307 is phase II, new model with more electricals. It is very delicate and volatile. Any abuse to that car will escalate stories that touch the heart. These cars are not meant for most Nigerians (kazim patroniserz). |

Philadelphia: I didn't put Toyota there because Most cars I put there are between 1999 to 2011 model years you can't get a 03-11 Toyota at that price because it is overpriced due to Toyota reliability position. The op has 700k for the said car won't it be more economical for him to buy a car worth 400k to 600k and use the remaining balance to fix to his taste. A 99 Corolla naija used in good condition is around 650k to 800k and you will still need to do minor fixes. in essence it is economically better to buy alternatives of Toyota that are equally good than buying an overpriced product. You should rather be fighting for Civic not Corolla. The major reason I omitted Toyota was because of the Yaris, the Yaris in that price range is the blandest nonsense of a car I have ever come across very ameboid and an excuse for ART ![]() 2 Likes |

weyreypey:These peugeot cars are cheap cars with high maintenance culture...All the phases are good, however the phase II have complex systems. Before buying a peugeot car, check if you have a peugeot guru around you, if not don't buy abeg! We peugeot lovers are hoping and anticipating that more Peugeot technicians would spring up. The problem usually start when the lions have issues and there are no available tech to attend to them. They usually end up in kazims yard who would probably worsen the case! |

hey everyone I would like to hear Y'alls view on a mitsubishi pajero 03(Naija used) it's going quite cheap because the owner is moving abroad, very neat and all. I would like to know how easy it is to maintain in Nigeria, fuel consumption rate etc it's a family car and roads to the house is quite bad, hence an SUV is needed. if you've used this car before, kindly give some advice. thanks. cc. radautoworks Gazzuzz |

boliswitpassprik: If you are sure it is well maintained I mean really certain because Mitsubishi Engine smokes easily when you use wrong Engine oil for it |
