Just imagine your mentality?
Your fellow citizen wanna buy a car, but you have made your mind up that he is into fraud! shocked
You are calling him a fraudster and you don't know anything about him?
And you will turn around blaming other people for the misery around you.
So in your mind , a youth cannot make it in a legit way to buy a car of around $3000 without going into fraud?And you will end up condemning SARS for doing the same thing. Shouting End SARS everywhere just last year!
Shouting End Sars cause they keep disturbing Naija youths dressing well and riding good cars, not knowing that all of us aren't thieves, scammers or fraudsters!
FYI, we still have honest and hardworking Nigerians around.
And you are here calling someone you don't know jack about a yahoo boy!
May God forgive you!
Well, The earlier you change your mentality, the better for you.


It's all in their mentality.
It's just so sad to read!


OP,
Take this advice below,
But we know at the end of the day,
You will follow your heart,


We Rise.

Sadly, I have to like another of your comments for the truths in it even though I don't necessarily agree with a lot of your other opinions and biases. I hope you don't go on to quote this multiple times like you have done in the past with one of my comments on your posts.

Benz is not for a starter
Go for Toyota corolla (2003 to 2006) and enjoy your life

May 2014 was the day I bought my first C class.
2018 I got my E220 CDI 2008 model.
And later same year I got a C300.
I'm sure you were still in school when most of these happened, kindly take a backseat and learn from real experience,not fantasy or fan boyhood.

LOL. You're very small minded and definitely intellectually fatigued.

Your assumptions and decision to resort to throwing tantrums is proof of your juvenility and obviously non existent experience.

Not that it matters, but I obtained my first degree (a B. SC) in the year 2005.

Please save more and buy clean title foreign used. I currently use a Benz, have driven this ride for 3 years and have never regretted my choice. Please note, everything is still on point. People who say a Mercedes is a luxurious ride obviously don't own one. The brand offers durability and optimally maximizes fuel usage.

Before you'd replace any part, it would take ages. Just make sure you get one in excellent condition. Totally worth the save and purchase.
What model of Benz do you use if I may ask? And did you get it as tokunbo or brand new?

The 2009 does not have a good resale value as the 03-07. Check around and find out how much a first body Nigerian used corolla from 03-07 cost. The one that is all round neat and sharp.

Add ₦1m and buy a 2008-2012 Toyota Corolla.
Low fuel consumption,ultra-reliable and it has a better resale value than the Benz.

I currently use the 2014 GLA 250. Never had any issues and doesn't make me cry over my fuel budget.

I got it in 2017, foreign used.

Did I not say it?
Your car is still very new,we would have this talk about durability and reliability again soon,maybe in a few years,so you can gloat about how durable it is by then grin
Mercedes durable? undecided
Well,I'm sure you will ditch it before then and I strongly advise you do,before repair bills wound you.

He should use half of 1.5m to buy a car?

As in, he should use N750,000 to buy a car? Nawa for Nairaland financial advisors o.

You do have point. Trust me, you can buy cars for that low.

You'd be surprised, he can find a sound car for that price. The real problem here isn't the price of the car but the ego behind the purchase.

Not a good idea for a first car, it's a V6, meaning more fuel, also it's parts aren't exactly cheap. if all the above ain't a problem for u, U can get it & enjoy...

BUT do not buy naija used unless u know the person selling it & happens to maintain his ride very well..... otherwise u & kazeem will be be tight friends as u go get special spot for him garage
C230 is not v6, is an i4

go to cars45.com and pick a car according to ur budget after you must have checked the inspection reports. Those guys dey try for their inspection so you are guaranteed of the kind of Nigerian used car you are buying.

Corolla 04-06, Honda Civic 06-08 or Hyundai Elantra/Sonata. They are all fuel economical.

Buy a car in Nigeria at your own risk. They replace a lot of parts with old stuff and sell the stolen parts as either new or belgium. In some cases, the car will look clean outward but with bad engine health.

Unless you know and trust the car seller then you can go ahead to buy from the person. Or if you know someone in U.S. or Germany you trust, better!

Benz c230 especially the last batch is very strong and economical to a point. But I will advice you go for the foreign used. Ensure the Air-conditioning system is in very good condition.
Re: Want To Buy A Car, Experts Should Advice Me Pls. by Nobody: 8:04pm On Aug 09, 2021
Save and add money buy decent toks because bros if you go buy 1.5 Benz naija used you go spend 2.5 to put am in order. Talking from genuine experience.
