Since most cars advertised are claimed to be in good condition, I will advice you ask it to be driven to a location you are comfortable with. These faceless posters might be something else |

In my quest 4 a naija used car, I noticed that 70% of cars advertised here on nairaland are scams. Notably visiondee, www.nairaland.com/1218563/golf-3-two-doors-ac brigadier747 www.nairaland.com/1239147/neat-naija-used-volkswagen-golf Note: they are d same car. I called up dis brigadier guy and he said d car was at ogbomosho, dat he'll bring it 2lagos 4me 2inspect. Immediately, my alert bell rang. I asked him a few questions, he cldnt giv a straight answer, just blabbing, so i hung up. I've called up 2 other guys 2txt me location of their cars 4 inspection and until now, no response. We all need 2 shine our halogen eyes here. My own dey shine naturally. |

I equally had an xperience 2days ago frm a funny dupe who said I shuld send money for dem to transport an unregistered vehicle frm badagry to mile2 4me,claiming he was a pastor n custom officer. When I argued wit him dat its impossible 4me to send a dime 2sum1 I dnt knw he started preachin. I simply cut him off n later met a geniue seller n owner of anoda car wic I just purchased ytday frm his office. D truth is sum r real n many r fake. |

stpat1: Since most cars advertised are claimed to be in good condition, I will advice you ask it to be driven to a location you are comfortable with. That's something that rarely happens. If the car gets involved in an accident,who sorts it out? Secondly,some buyers are. Serious idiots.you agree a price with somebody and after driving down,they start pricing it anyhow. That's not a very good option too. My advice is: don't part away with money before seeing your car.go inspect and pay. Also,be careful of cars that are tooo cheap. |

He advertised an eod(toks) for 900k and I was forced to call him,knowing fully well that my registered eod was 1.150m. He started talking about being a top ranking custom officer and pastor at living faith christian center. Then he said the car was at badagry and that they're being sold by customs... I knew it was scam and I just cut him off. There's no way you'll sell a tokundo eod for that price he quoted. Buyers should take note of ridiculously cheap cars. |

And just to add to the above: don't ever believe those guys who claim to be selling cars on behalf of customs and claim places like kebbi,maiduguri,katsina as base. They'll tell you that they'll deliver the car to you anywhere in nigeria before you pay but you'll have to pay 50k upfront as cost of transporting the vehicle down. They'll advertise a 2009 camry at 950k and tell you customs is auctioning seized vehicles.... It's all lies. |
