Nigeria's Most Reliable Car by Emech: 12:28pm On Nov 25, 2014
We are conducting a search for Nigeria's most reliable car, from comfort, repair cost, car parts, service cost, how often it breaks down, design, it's extraordinary that we look at invention that has been in the marketplace for some time, much less second-hand product.

If you think your car is the best of the bunch, enter your car model and year into this post and we'll collect and compile the data as a poll once we have enough information to start one.

The 10 most reliable cars according to Warranty Direct UK:
1. Honda Accord - A classy package, well put together and feels more special than the average family car. Superb engines and value for money.
2. Subaru Forester - Not quite an off roader, much more than an estate with a sporty edge, making it the perfect combination. Great all round buy.
3. Mazda MX-5 - Blueprint for the modern roadster with sweet handling and engines to match. Extremely easy to live with.
4. Mitsubishi Carisma - Despite the name, not that interesting to look at or drive, but that's not the point. Here is a no-nonsense hatchback that won't let you down.
5. Toyota Yaris - Superminis don't come better. Bags of room and perky engines. Probably the best small car buy.
6. Honda Civic - Solid build quality and good engines are just part of the appeal, the Civic is one of the most spacious small cars around. Great value.
7. Nissan Almera - A dull package, but that's no reason to dismiss the Almera which is practical and perfect for the smaller family who need a big boot and utter reliability.
8. Honda CR-V - Proof that you don't need an XXXL 4x4. Here is a four-wheel drive estate that is flexible, easy to drive and own.
9. Toyota RAV4 - So few four-wheel drives are fun to drive. This car is suitably sporty, but very practical. Expensive used buy but worth it.
10. Nissan Micra - The driving school favourite. Tough, fairly roomy, but with its light controls is easy to steer around town.

Hi!

It might be interesting!

Toyota brands rank in the top two spots while Fiat Chrysler's cars take the bottom four. Toyota is the most reliable car for the eighth year in a row, according to Consumer Reports' annual ranking. The company's Toyota and Lexus models came in at the top of the list, which is based on a survey of subscribers.

I was thinking you will miss out Accord and Civic. But Corolla was suppose to be on the list.

I don't think you are talking of Nigeria here.
If you are talking of most reliable cars in Nigeria, then yoi should be looking at the cars of yore like...
1. Peugeot 504
2. Peugeot 505
3. Volks Wagen Beetle
4. Datsun 120Y
5. Mercedes Benz 230E (Flat Booth)
6. Mercedes Benz 190E
7. Volvo 240
8. Peugeot 404
9. Toyota Corolla
10. Honda Accord

This listing is in no particular order. For the Corolla and Accords, I am actually refering to the old school (pre '99/'00) models. Those cars can 'hardly die'. LOL. Many of them are still on our roads today and still doing what they were doing 30-40 years ago. Can any car be more reliable than that?

I beg to differ that you included HONDA CRV to this list. It's one of the most expensive/unreliable SUV/Cross Over to maintain. I'm still wondering why Toyota Corrolla and Volkswagen Golf, Skoda , Toyota stalet and Mazda 323 isn't in the list?
