AutoJoshNG: How many buyers can pay for a clean title, low mileage non accident car? For instance Toyota Camry 1997/1998/1999 aka tiny light for 1.3M, Toyota Camry 2000/2001 aka droplight/envelope for 1.5m, Toyota Corolla 2003/4/5 for 2M, Toyota Camry 2007/8 aka muscle for 3.2M etc MOST NIGERIAN CAR BUYERS WANT GOOD CARS BUT THEY ARENT READY TO PAY GOOD MONEY. QUALITY PRODUCTS ARE NOT CHEAP THEY WANT NON ACCIDENT LOW MILEAGE FIRST BODY AT CHEAPER RATE LOLS. DEALERS WILL CONTINUE TO SELL ACCIDENT CARS 5 Likes |

madjune:Very true.I was once a victim.It was quite painful as I couldn't sleep well for two consecutive nights.Adequate information is a key while buying whether Nigeria or foreign used cars.It guides in negotiation especially,when purchasing Nigeria used cars.I think direct cars are far much better than Nigeria used ones. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Just got in from Canada, some of these cats are actually okay, but have been stolen,or not been paid for, but their VIN #s have been switched with that of an accidented vehicle(which they have titles of), so they can ship out of N.America. 5 Likes |

philchudi: Vehicle Identification Number: It is a seventeen digit alphanumeric code that the manufacturer assigns to a specific vehicle. It can be used to check the history of the car from the date of manufacture to the date the car was shipped to Nigeria. |
