Please house I want to know what those of us did when they bought their first car. I am asking this cos mine is on the high sea coming - A sweet 2010 Camry XLE V6 wit Nav.

I filled the tank and drove the car from PHC to Enugu and back at a speed of 180km/hr.
Re: What Did You Do When You Bought Your First Car by Nobody: 11:44pm On Jul 11, 2013
The next day I stopped the car at a busy junction and pretended it had a fault and simply caused a tragic jam. At least I don't follow cause go slow for PHC

You should read a thread well before commenting.
I even made myself clear on some opinions I had so as to serve as a guide.

What is the big deal of first car thing? Guy play low, take your car to your church and after blessing start driving. if your close Pal comes to your house, there is nothing bad in giving him/them win to drink.

Please take it easy so that you will alive to buy your tenth or even more cars. i baught my first car as a student in 200 level. I am using my 8th car now and i dont see any big deal there. Car is just for mobility.

if you had said my first private Jet, then i for hala.

Classroom teacher, comprehend your students answer before failing them.

Put in a layman,s language; DO NOT KILL YOURSELF CELEBRATING YOUR FIRST CAR PURCHASE, like you are doing.
Let the car come, jejely, and pretend as if it was your 10th car. That way, you avoid errors some of us have made in the past.

One of my first cars:

I took it to the car wash, told the attendant to wash everything and everything, including the ENGINE.
Then I called a few friends and we shacked up properly while at the same time blasting music from the car. The music only died down when the washman decided to give the car a befitting ENGINE wash.
Jet propelled flush of water straight to the engine meant i got a good car wash and a thoroughly useless car that refused to start when it mattered most. Brain box and battery damage on the first day. Well, lesson learnt. But,
I was thoroughly shamed.

Did nothing because I couldn't drive then, but was excited all the same and felt I had arrived at the age of 28. A few days later I took some friends out for a jolly good time and that was it. Now here is the twist, subsequent cars I bought (I'm now driving my 7th) over the years has got me more excited than the first because I now know what I want in a car before buying it. The excitement keeps increasing with every car I buy.

Nice one. More machines means heightened excitement I guess.
