Mine was that someone at the bridge advised me to let him tow my car, because if I let him go he will alert the road safety officers ahead to do the towing themselves


This one just came and want to tow the car by force. I was still negotiating with the agberos o. Truly it wasn't safe on the road like that but why will you be threatening to tow my vehicle to lasma office?

The greatest embarrassment that can happen to a man is when he sells his car.

I always advise people if you know you're not financially buoyant triple don't buy a car because once you do, you've automatically purchased a NEW IDENTITY.

All eyes are on, you respect coming from different directions young and old, family members, church members and even neighbors but sell that same car you are reduced to a BEGGAR in their eyes.

Small boy talk

Many many years ago I bought a car and had accident
The car was a total write off.

I didnt have a car for a while I no die


It’s when u are worried about ppl opinion this kind of an inferiority will hit u.

Life no send it can throw any obstacle or discomfort your way. You just have to keep on going.

Out of no where area boys first came placed a very big stone at my back tyre I couldn't b push it anymore, all this was meant to delay me has the have called lastma towing van. I got angry after discovering the big stone preventing the tyre . I throw it away and continued pushing it myself , when the saw my determination, the now change mouth , we go help you push am but you go pay us ......lagos

The greatest embarrassment as a car owner is to be broke enough to let you car run out of fuel in Lagos traffic, and trying you best to get passerby to help you push it to the side of the road, then faking a frowning and disappointed face just to lie that it's a mechanical fault.


Silly you

Baba one bottle for you... grin

Anytime people see me walking, the first thing they ask is "How is your Car"?!
They never asked about me or my life, all they wanna know about is my Car.

If your car stop on top third mainland bridge at night from 7 to 9 you would understand better.

I had a car I drive almost everyday for 3yrs plus. I sold it due to a private issue. People kept asking, 'where's your car? What happened?' Some even felt things have gone bad for me financially that I couldn't maintain it anymore. I notice it on their faces when I hang my bag going to work. But what they don't know is that my income is far better now than it was when I had the car. By GOD'S grace, very soon I'll shock them with my next upgraded ride.

Ownership history is a pivotal factor in determining the value of a used car. Prospective buyers and sellers alike must recognize its profound influence on the vehicle's worth. For a reliable source of comprehensive vehicle history reports, consider exploring the offerings available at carfax usa. Gain valuable insights into the history and condition of your next potential used car purchase A pristine ownership record, characterized by a single owner, consistent registration in one region, and well-maintained mileage, often translates to a higher resale value. It implies a car that has been carefully cared for and is less likely to have hidden issues. Conversely, a history of multiple owners, frequent relocations, or irregular mileage patterns can diminish a vehicle's value. Such records may raise concerns about the car's maintenance, potential accidents, or even title issues. In this context, understanding how ownership history impacts car value is essential for informed decision-making in the used car market

For years, I've been using carfax usa to check the history of cars I consider buying. The Carfax reports provided are incredibly detailed. They cover not just accidents and repairs, but give a complete chronicle of the vehicle's history. Such reports have become an indispensable part of my car buying process. They offer a level of detail that instills confidence and ensures I'm making a well-informed purchase.
