I'm thinking of buying kia cerato 2010 but I'm afraid. Each time I'm in town n I see someone driving it, I feel like I should have a word with the driver. Honestly I'm scared. Seller is asking for 700k. |

hadjipapiey: Though l needed a car to convey me to work on a daily basis, what l bought was more of a luxury, I imported an American Spec V-Boot from Canada..... in the late 90's, that was "the bomb". Completely unnecessary at that point, as a first car and a single guy. |

Bluehill1051: That is a brilliant idea. At times, a car is cheap to buy but imposes unimaginable financial burden on you, to maintain. Ask about fuel economy, how much it costs to service it, cost of parts that you have to replace often (Brake pads, Filters) and to some extent, Catalytic converters, disks, Shocks, Headlamps, turn-indicators, Side Mirrors, e.t.c. and how often it breaks down or acts in traffic build-ups. Are you thinking it should be more expensive? Did the seller tell you why they want such amount for it (Incase of expensive fault!) or seller just wants to flog it because he needs cash right away or is replacing it. I once sold a very good car for dirt cheap because l had no more parking space and the car was just idle anyway. Buyer still hails me till today and we even became friends down the line. |

dokyOloye:My brother, he who wears the shoes knows where it pinches. No matter d plenty talks on land first, I bought a car I can conveniently maintain for the sake of my family. House will still surely come by GOD'S grace, with proper planning. Different strokes for different folks. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Olumyyde:Once a civil servant gets to the office, there's almost no movement outside of the secretariat till work closes, so getting a car here is not a necessity but luxury, class and convenient (all these means money). Whatever you use the car to do doesn't add a kobo to your already fixed salary |

Boss car is a necessity for businesses and families. Last year my wife went into labour around 2am. Na where I wan see taxi? Thank God i have a car. Pls don't mention Uber as u don't know if I have a smart phone available. Similar thing happened to a friend, his wife had to give birth in their living room with the help of neighbours as they couldn't get to the clinic that night. Thank God there was no complication. banio: |

The sight of my little boy clinging to an okada rider to and from school hurts me. His brother trecks home sometimes and it also hurts me. This week I'm getting a car. When you have a family, car is absolute necessity. 2 Likes |
