How did I rob it on the face of my colleague? Can you read my comment again? Before she introduced the husband to me, he had been home searching for HP and didn't see anything less than 3.5 and 4m. He was very happy when I gave him at 3m. And did you just say brand new tyrea don't make a car? Please check the cost of 4 new tyres and get back to me.

Edit. So you say a profit of 1m or even less is too much for a 24 months HP. I have nothing to say to you.

Please can this Honda civic 2008 do über business profitably?

With 4k euros(2.4m naira) it can be shipped to naija from Germany for uber business.

Or Tokunbo corolla buy in Nigeria is a better choice?

Thanks everyone.

If u have 2.4m, just go and buy Corolla in car stand at ones.
Except this is ur choice, u can get 2cars for that amount and make more money.

I really don't know how it is the way it's, but, it is the way is and most importantly to me, I trust my source and I didn't have any issues whatsoever while using em... Maybe luck

As for your price, hmmmm, I take your advice, let's not talk about it.

I said that because we can't keep up with demand. Keeps selling out in a week or so of reach shipment. Na ban I chop wey I no answer since lol.

This isn't fake news. My 04 bigdaddy was bought toks. If yours isn't shorting oil then mayb you're lucky or the issue as been corrected before you bought it. The 2az-fe engine is notorious for that, its also same engine that is in i4 muscle (2007-2009). If you use the car for ehailing full time, you might have to top up with 1ltr of oil weekly. I say it without mincing words.

Make una stop this naah
You mean Toyota made mistake to make some Engines to be shorting oil ?
Use normal oil una no go hear.
Keep using synthetic and be topping oil every week

yes, they made mistake. Yes, car manufacturers make mistakes hence why they recall cars. Its not about synthetic/mineral oil. If yours no do am, its either you're lucky or engine was fixed before you bought it.

Your 04 camry shouldn't be shorting oil ..more than likely you bought a lemon. Those cars were in such huge demand that some had high miles on them .... I use the big daddy during my early years of uber..

When you bought yours did you verify the actual MILEAGE ? I can bet money that yours was bought high miles and the mileage was roll back before it was sold to you ... It only cost 5k to roll back mileage my brother......

Also it is 2007 to 2009 camry v4 that had a factory defect of oil shorten ........

Ps ... The more often you stress your car especially when use for e- hailing the more you burn more oil ..keep that in mind .. All these stop and go and traffic hold up, local driving stresses the car alot more than highway driving .......

Now I keep saying this is why I use Honda Civic 03 to 05. Those cars were built specifically for low maintenance. They were design for that and they have the lowest maintenance cost ....

And from experience I never had oil shorten issues unless from worn out oil seals or bad pcv values.. I have mention these couple of times.. Samething with my elantra 07 to 08 never had issues with oil shorten..

If you know you will be using your car for e hailling make sure to use full synthetic oil and follow owners manual ... Using the correct grade oil will also help you to save on petrol consumption.

I have a small fleet of cars on uber for the past years now .. My experience is well documented here ....i know what am talking about

Truthfully, Car came with high mileage. 170k miles, my friend bought 07 corolla with 250k miles. His car just hit 300k miles and never shuts oil. So, as you rightly said, as the mileage goes up, the oil burn becomes more evident.

There's a market for everyone and that's why I say here that for a long time to come e-hailing will continue to sell, unless it's cancelled.

Despite your prices I've bought a few things and done jobs at your's many times though, until courage pulled a kazeem on me.

Sorry.. It was not a recall. They were sued by the USA government for emission law violation and VW try to cover up and got caught .. They settle out of court for $4 billion

Toyota faced a recall and they will sue for billions of dollars.......... This is why USA foreign car specs are 1 of the best.. Things are put in place to check these car companies to comply with the law .........

There was a debate on a korean car that was sold to the Nigerian market for cheap.. I stated that car can't be compare to the USA version at all .. The person was arguing with me back and fourth....

4.2m! Wow. I gave mine out for 3m to the husband of one of our staff. comprehensive insurance, brand new tyres.
Now look at this phrase closely again, how would you feel if you're that man readimg this? One of our(my) staff... What's the need mentioning names in the first place even? Just look at the way u r even forming CEO (my staff) like u r d only CEO in Nigeria.

Baba be humble abeg.

How much you sell your property is not the issue and I've no business with that but menh this kinda statements are reasons why shit happens.

You even went further to mention brand new tires, na condemn tires you for put for the car? Or don't you know brand new tires easily fail than even the tokunbo tires that we have because they've gone through some series of test on the road b4 imported down to 9ja? Only that most of them have factory failures and are mostly winter tires.


Springboot:


How did I rob it on the face of my colleague? Can you read my comment again? Before she introduced the husband to me, he had been home searching for HP and didn't see anything less than 3.5 and 4m. He was very happy when I gave him at 3m. And did you just say brand new tyrea don't make a car? Please check the cost of 4 new tyres and get back to me.

Edit. So you say a profit of 1m or even less is too much for a 24 months HP. I have nothing to say to you.

Look at the bolded again and interpret these phrase very well again to yourself... Does this sounds good... You don't need to use some key words like "he has been home" somebody can even misinterpret this that you're sleeping with the wife reason why re sounding like its a favour you're doing for the man or better still the woman must have begged you to help the husband since he has been sleeping at home doing nothing... I can go on and on to scrutinize that phrase.

1.2m profit in 24months as profit is nothing short of 75% profit... Commercial banks don't even make that much in 10years of a loan tenure so bros be grateful and stop that feeling of a boss.

Lastly, can you now see you have something to say to me?
