Kokomo: Yes you can but a naija used Volvo for a 1st timer as Uber I would definitely pass. I Also hope its the P1 04 to 2010 you are talking about cause if I am Uber technician I will fault the 1st generation for poor design  1 Like |

Abeg I never try to correct somebody oyingbo grammar o! seriously, not the spelling but the positioning. If you re-position the two words, it turns the question to a sentence and of course, answers the question as well. Kokomo: 3 Likes |

Go for it! I use my BMW e46 on Uber. At first my friends advised against it since it's not the regular corolla but I can tell you every trip is an experience. |

Lexusgs430: Why? The vehicle price is 640k Average MPG IS 22-24 I presume it's going to be self driven and is in good enough condition with AC to be accepted for Uber. So why is it suicide/murder mission? Is there something especially wrong with that car model? 2 Likes |

nurey: I'll avoid those and go for the 98-03 instead. Those years at bolded will mess him up if used on uber/taxify, they're not as rugged as the earlier versions. 1 Like 1 Share |

Omojoshu: I'm serious, this comment has nothing to do with the whatsapp mess up, the car in question even fell within the year model which i just recommended (98-03), so there's no way it can be misconstrued as a continuation of that case |

Kokomo:Abort mission! Abort! It's a suicide mission! I once inherited one s40 from my dad. It was a moving coffin, I had to dump it after 3 months when it suddenly broke down just when I was about to overtake a trailer and there were other vehicles behind me hoping I'll overtake on time before the curve. I last last packed inside a gutter. 2 Likes |

Kokomo: Its a rugged car and reliable too, mpg is no bad too. Once you're sure uber/taxify will accept it and riders won't mind too, then you're good to go. Only reservations i might have is the current state of the car (being naija used), pls perform proper physical inspection before buying, get a pro if u don't know what to look out for |
