I really envy your courage for coming out and stating the fact, but if I were in your shoes, I won't buy a car worth exactly that amount, I will save 100k set it aside for eventuality, there are only two cars that comes to my mind that you can get for a lesser price and value for money. Fuel efficient Parts are cheap Reliable Can seat upto 5 but will seat 4 very comfortable Mechanics can fix it easily Will be pocket friendly on maintenance Tested and trusted brands And they are 1. NISSAN MICRA 2. A nigerian used facelifted KIA PICANTO am thinking its from 2008 to 2012 model year Those cars are a little bit miniature but they are rugged and parts are pocket friendly. |

greensat: Then save abt 700k b4 u can buy toks, remember u will do d following after purchase of toks too, it is called initial expenses 1. Registration. Abt 35k 2. Four brand new tyres. Abt 60k 3. New battery abt 15k 4. Get driving license if u neva get 13k 5. Change oil n oil filter abt 5k 6. Change atf oil ie u r unlucky 7. Cost of delivery to ur location 8. Others 10k Total abt 128k additional expenses I agree with u toks is d best but there r some good naija used cars too but u need a lot of patience to get one |
Re: Your Advice Is Needed by greensat: 10:22am On Mar 15, 2015 |
dont say 700k.a yoruba man i know went with his brother to cotonou and was able to get 1998 mazda 323 for 520k down to south-south.i am not keen on fancy car now,but i beleive with good assistance(maybe with small fee),someone could be assisted to get good car with of 500k even if is corolla 1992.leave the inital expences now,when motor is on ground,those thing will be sorted out. |
