the vehicle papers...license, insurance, proof of ownership, check the engine no, chasis no, the name on the papers, verify the seller/owner's name, if the seller is not the owner insist on meeting the owner...if in doubt, and any reluctance to connect you with the real owner please flee, ask for account number of the owner where you'll deposit the funds for purchase, after verification via a valid id, and FRSC/licensing office to know if the names, engine no. chasis no. tally!....in some cases you find out incidents of double registration....


My Experience: I met a young man in Ikorodu who wanted to sell an E320 w210 Merc, he insisted it was because of his wedding in a week's time...so calmly I asked for an IV so I can be part.....but my real intention was to know his real names....since marrying with a fake name is not common....after viewing the card I complimented the quality, but kept the name in my mind which was different from what he called himself during introduction.......when it came to vehicle papers he gave me the papers bearing the acclaimed name different from that on his wedding IV while claiming it was his! On closer questioning he said and I quote "I have my name and my biz names different so dont worry" @ that point I calmly told him to provide me with an a/c no so I can transfer the funds for purchase....he gave the name on the vehicle papers at that point I calmly walked towards first bank and entered a bus enroute Ojota! He called and I told him point blank dt I dont deal with Janus typed individuals! So please be kiaful or else you may find yourself on a loooonnnnnng thing behind BARS! pencil camry pls check wella

Verify from FRSC and the licencing office that the data tally....then any dealer who refuses to process the vehicle papers should be ready to identify the owner and put the buyers mind at ease.... Buyers Beware!

Wat shld be d ideal thing for a dealer buying a used car to resell, is d paper supposed to bear d dealers name or d previous owners name who d buyer can't meet. Thanks a bunch
