Hello Nairalanders,

I want to buy a car in the near future and I am turn between an Avalon and a Corolla 2007. Based on my price review on Jiji, both vehicle are within the same price range of N1.8million - N2.2million for foreign use depending on condition and seller.

I'll like to ask Nairalanders who have experience using any of these cars to advice which will be better for a personal with no plans for long distance travel or ride hailing.

My key concern is aroung.
1. Cost of servicing
2. Repairs and maintenance.
3. Fuel consumption
4. Overall driving experience.

Thanks for you s

Corolla of course!

Every one of those things you mentioned is more intensive with Avalon.

Avalon's engine is much bigger than Corolla and hence a higher maintenance.

Coro

Put the pictures so we can also consider beauty

Avalon is a complicated car so go for Corolla, it's more reliable.

Buy the corolla you won't regret it.

The avalon is not bad too but corolla is way better in everyway

You deserve better with that budget, check for something newer on Craigslist or offerup if you have an agent.

Buy the two

Let’s settle this the traditional way

No be dat Avalon wey full cow fit siddon for the backseat be 2007? that car na mistake, gud to see the subsequent models come fine

feeleoajahha:
ok

Corolla is the definition of economy...
Avalon is the luxurious...
But both are Toyota which is generally known for durability so you can make a choice...
P:S... All Corollas are 4 plugs(V4) while all Avalons are 6 plugs (V6)

Are we not in 2019 anymore?

Corolla is more durable
More compact
More economical
Compare to Avalon.

Why buy 2007 model when we are in 2019? and still in the future you want to buy self

As an experienced automobile expert, corolla is good.

So if they leave u u will go and buy 07 corolla,
It's better u get avalon or camry

Pls buy Volkswagen leave Toyota alone,
