a greater percentage of every nigerian used car on almost every car sales platform is over hyped, this is not new, you should apply due diligence and send an emissary close to location of vehicle to scout and feed you back with info before traveling across different states in nigeria. There are 2 things that hardly go together, Neat ride at low price. Unless the owner is financially distressed, you will always pay the difference, it might be a replacement engine, transmission, leaking a.c from evaporator, Under body rust, Custom duty, stolen vehicle or NO vehicle sef cheer up praisenetworks, it happens a lot, nothing new, you only learned the hard way. If I begin to list the number of car dealers that have made me inspect lemons on NL, I might be Opening 1 thread a day out of displeasure, and guess what? It cuts across all platforms, OLX, JIJI etc. Meanwhile wetin I do you sef? 2 Likes |

someone has 2 different monikers both use the same set of numbers to advertise one is male,the other is female and people still think it normal to deal with the transgender the day I pointed it out on one of his threads he said he and his wife both sells cars.....nice one...but except they are Siamese,I don't get how both won't have separate numbers to widen their clientele base "damn neat" must have enticed the OP 3 Likes |

My two cents - If you are buying any car, go and inspect it yourself, even if it will take you the whole day to get there. Don't ever send a trusted friend or brother who may be close by. I had an experience i will never forget, early 2015. I saw a RAV 4 advertised by .............. It looked so neat on picture i had to call the seller. He told me the car was used for just 8 months in Nigeria and in very good working condition. Since i was in Port Harcourt and SUV was in Lagos, I asked a mechanic friend who stayed in Warri and was going to Lagos to check the car out for me. The mechanic friend called me the next day to say that the car was in very good condition and that i should buy it. I trusted him, since i felt the best person to look at a vehicle is a mechanic. That same day i paid into the seller's account and asked the mechanic friend to drive the car to Warri, that i will send someone to come pick it up. To cut the story short, what was delivered to me to my greatest amazement was a lemon!. The car was completely accidented and repainted God's knows how many times. The engine was bad and the gear was the worse. I was so angry i almost used a police friend in warri to arrest the mechanic. He connived with the seller to dupe me. A 2001 RAV 4 i bought for 980K was sold for 470k, with the guy who is buying only willing to pay in three installments. Since then, if i want to buy any car, whether tokunbo or Nigerian use i go check it out myself. Recently i bought a Nigerian used 2005 Toyota Matrix for my wife. Saw the car advertised, called the seller and had to fly to Lagos to inspect and certify that the vehicle was the way the seller painted it. Behold most of all the seller said was right, the car was near tokunbo, and i parted away with a very good sum because i liked what i was buying. My wife has been cruising the car and she is happy with it. 2 Likes |

praxisnetworks:You can never et your cake and have it. The pictures posted by seller were when the car first came into the country and it's RHD also it's obvious he cropped out number plates and bumpers in the pictures *Red flag* praxisnetworks:You should have stated here that you met with the owner during the inspection and not the person who advertised the car here. praxisnetworks:But you didn't place a call to the middleman to tell him your outright displeasure before creating the topic. praxisnetworks:You went to Ibadan from Ado-Ekiti. You crossed only one state- Osun. At worst you cross Osun and Ondo if you take a longer route. Coincidentally Gazzuzz is handling a worse vehicle atm. Check link: https://www.nairaland.com/3864550/vehicle-2009-honda-accord-ex-l#57566926 This topic sounds more like you are seeking a pity party/ trying to share a tale of how smart you are and escaped from a bad deal which alot of people did from the comfort of their homes by due diligence in checking out the pictures and not being blinded by the low price. By the way, you have been searching for a car to buy since last year and prone to scammers due to your desperation and low price evident in the post you offered a person 60k for Honda Accord is 1993 (aka Hala). I'm NOT IN SUPPORT of the seller, but person wey find anyhow go see anyhow. Good luck. 4 Likes |
