Happy Sunday!

It's unarguable, owning a car in a city like Lagos makes life better and easier. And as a young man under 30, this is highly needed.

To this end, I'm committing to save up money over the next months to get a car, preferably, a Nissan (Maxima or Altima).

Ceteris paribus, I'm looking at saving 100k each month, with an average of 600k at the end of the year...You think that can get me something nice?

Well, I'm optimist that I can make the cash even the year runs out...I pray everything good I intend or outlook will come to fruition, real soon.

Got any thought on this?

dingbang:
Its a good one... Do you need the car for show off purposes or u need it because it is highly necessary

freepop:
Thanks.

You just asked a critical question that got me thinking again about the reason for this car.

Primarily, it's for ease of mobility. I'm an entrepreneur/freelancer and sometimes need to be on road. These days, I feel terrible using public transport (the stress), hence, I've been doing loads of Uber and Yellow Taxi. When I look at the cost of those on a weekly basis, I shake my head, considering that some my friends with car spend less.

My other reason will be for status upgrade. As you know, people have a way of sizing you up base on the things you have or do not have. So, I'd be thinking having a ride, gives a better lift and could fast track more business goodies.

More so, I think having a ride shouldn't be a luxury. Out country has only made it so. Just snapped myself off that useless Nigerian thinking. If I have the money today, bros, I go go buy am oooo.

Its a good idea! Owning a car isn't the problem but maintenance is! Hope you have something to fall back on when the road gets any rougher being a young man for that matter! Best of luck!

TPound:

dingbang:
ok you should save and buy it then... But be aware of the cost of maintenance ... Let that not elude you.

freepop:
Thanks.

Will contact you at the apt time.

Any idea on the cost of maintaining a Nissan ride?

TPound:


maintenance cost is relatively cheap compared to toyota.its also durable and strong... as I speak,I use 1 2001 Nissan quest and one 2001 mercury villager.

A young man, around 30years, not married without 5 children already probably lives alone mercury villager/Nissan quest HABA.

Op, if Nissan is your choice, you are attempting a model you will not be able to take care of on the long run except you intend buying relic models. Try

Nissan sunny, Almera, primera, sentra start from small and grow big

young man, do not set your self up. Do not be deceived by the great looking interior, and the fact that you see them moving around.

Your budget will get you the 2003-2006 max it will be nigerian used, and I can assure you by the time the car is done with you, you will understand the inner workings of a modern day vehicle.

You will also sell it for about 250-350k and appreciate the money.

Thanks.

If I could ask, how did you arrive at the maintenance comparison against Toyota? Ever/currently used a Toyota product?
