Wha happened that this thread has been scrubbed like this.

Anyway first ride was a baby Benz. Bought 2004. I put a 10cd player in the booth feeling like a boss.

I rocked that car for good 7 years before I have it up. It served faithfully to the end even when I had to open the door while driving in order to wind up so rain stops beating me in the car and later open the door again to wind down so the windscreen can clear up from the fog that formed.

Chai.

I don't even had a pic of that car.

I remember my first car with Nostalgia. A rover 620GSi. Full option. Bought the car in 2008 precisely on the 21st January. That car was a workhorse and went everywhere with me. I flogged the car throughout the states in Nigeria. I eventually sold it in 2013 when I upgraded to a Honda Pilot. Wanted to leave the Rover for my wife to learn with but then I got a good offer for the Rover and did not want it to stay with me for too long. It was a manual drive and I was just transferred to Lagos and those who stay in Lagos know you should never drive a manual tranny in Lag. Your leg fit catch fire inside some mother of all hold ups.

Golf 3 GTI 1.6, 5 gear manual. This car was and is still a beast. I prefer using it for long travel due to fuel economy. Later got Camry tiny light.

But my golf is still my best for now. Easy to meander through tight traffic, balanced and runs like tiger.

Once competed with a Nissan sunny on Benin Asaba express way with it, the man was surprised when I returned gear to 3 from 4 and dusted him well.

Only problem with it is bearing and shaft, once I notice the sound, I change them, and do alignment. Car becomes new

1999 Honda Accord. Got it in 2008 and still being used by wifey. I've done an average journey of 600km weekly for about 1yr 9mths (zaria-shinkafi-zaria). Car has served me well as I've lived in Kaduna, zamfara, Daura, Yola and Maiduguri with it. I even drove it this morning and it feels the same save for some noise in the wheels I suspect worn out bearings. My experience with it.... Thanksgiving.

People from that side admire Honda fa. grin

Thanks to the modes that have done well to keep this thread on track.

My 1st car was a Peugeot 504 GL saloon handed over by my dad. It was bad. I sold it to raise money to buy a Peugeot 505 Evolution Naija used when I was in the university. It was pretty bad too however it got me my 1st firsts (if you know what I mean).

I didn't have a car again for a long while until I was working and got my Hyundai Sonata Y3 1998 model. I used the car till wrecked till I found a buyer for it on OLX for N150k, the poor soul. Then I got my present truck shipped from the USA a year before our economy crashed. A Toyota 4Runner 2000. Yeah it is old yea? But boy, does it do its job

well i dont av a car yet... My daddy first car was a toyota starlet old model... The day that my dad brought the car home we rejoiced and immediately we took d car to church and the car was casted nd binded against every evil will we didnt know that we brought a demonic evil ordained car to our house with us....frm 1 problem to another... This nd that till it get to 1 saturday we were all rejoicing singing nd going to church when we were exactly at central area at abuja suddenly something made us to keep quiet our car's back isle losened and the car stopped on the middle of the highway. i noticed something my daddy's happy face turned into a frowned ugly figure that i hardly understood that he was once my dad he then yelled his lungs out that we should all run out from the car with immediate allacrity and we did just the exact and we were out of hell.... We kept on gazing at our ride... Not longer that few minutes we saw a bullion van charging towards our car lo and behold someone was heavily breathing i turned noticed that it was my daddy... He was sweating profusely his eyes was blood red and it looked watery.. We all waited for the worst to happen when suddenly the driver swerved the bullion van and it dodged our car... I turned to see my monster looking dad smiling and hailing the great driver for his good work... Just then some hausa boys went into the road and halted other moving vehicles... Then we pushed our car to a more safer side of the road... With a great relief my dad called for a mechanic who did a great job ... We went to church gave our testimony and we went home with a joyful heart..... December reached and we were happy that we are going to the village with our first ride...my mom disapproved our going with the car due to this reason 1)poor headlamp even a nokia 1208 torchlight is more brighter............ 2) my father has never drive to the village ... My father said that the devil is controlling my mom he said let us go to the village with the sole aim of making our enemy to cry we then started our journey we hailed our dad that he is already an expert for spending about 2Hours on the 1 way road then we saw two boys waving there hands indicating that we should stop the car in other to help them to their location as they enter we drove off suddenly our car stopped my dad went out opened the bonnet he fixed the problem but closing back the bonnet was war for him if he closes the bonnet the other far end will open he started sweating,,, i began to hear small laughs which then grrew louder i turned to see those helpless boys laughing i wanted to scold them but i stopped and remembered a proverb saying ''if u cant beat them join them'' i immediately joined there choral group i laughed but not aloud i only laugh inside my stomach i took my dad like 20min b4 the bonnet closed we continued our journey after dropping the boys and it became dark my dad switched the headlamps but it was 1 that ignited and there was a great dissapointment in the face of my dad we continue moving until a latest flashy car blinded our eyes with its powerful light immediately my dad lost control and entered a deep pothole the car changed it direction towards a fence my dad swerved the car to the left and thank God all this happened when no car was moving tro and frro the car then sped through a bush then it stopped after a while all the car trafficatory lights where displaying we smelt burning in the car then my dad immediately ran towards the car bonnet he opened it and unplugged the head of the battery then people came to our rescue and they took us to our village with another car the following morning our car just looked like a tattered carton...a towing van came and took our car to a close mechanic site...the mechanics kept calling high prices that my dad couldn't afford so some people known as +baban boular+ came and negotiated a price with my dad for him to sell the condemned car to them he agreed and they did a good job by butchering the car into a fine pieces and the tyre was given to children to roll........ And thats my experience on having a car......

Mine was back in SS3, some mechanics close to my school sold a 1991 Honda accord to me.I didn't know the car was trouble, I drove it to a supermarket on my way home to buy some drinks to use and celebrate with my friends and siblings. just for me to come out of the supermarket the car was on fire with lot of people trying to put the fire off. then 5 policemen were asking "Who get this car? I say who get this car" obviously I was so scared that I couldn't say it's mine, and I don't even have a drivers license. I just quietly took okada home regretting why I just wasted my N35,000.
