A car doesn't look like a luxury to me.

You didn't put my metrics into consideration.
1.I have only 3 years more in the country.
2.Police wahala.
a car is a nessecity,get an unobtrusive car that will fly below the radar and police will ignore you, Honda Accord or Toyota Camry,

So I'm currently in 300 level with a plan to leave the country immediately after my NYSC.
Since I'm studying a 4 year course in a private uni,I have about 3 years more in this country.

I wish to get a car with a budget of 3.5 to 3.8 million naira.
Due to the 3 years duration coupled with police harassing young car owners.

Is a car really worth buying now or I should jejely wait till I move??

I need inputs please.

U dont need to ask no one when the time is right you will know .. a car is a sign alot of people watch .. without even knowing it's a sign of responsibility.. and makes people look at u different..

Do you know how difficult it is to get rides at times? Do you know the convenience that comes with having your own car?
Yes I do & I also know the convenience of not having to worry about so many issues attached to having your own car in Nigeria, do you? It's all about reviewing the pros and cons.

Not sure what you mean by that or how it relates to this conversation?

Dad bought me a car this year... smiley smiley smiley
But sometimes I do leave it at home and go run my things. You could get a car and decide to use when ever you want.
God that open doors to give you money to get one will also be opening doors to maintain it.
Cheers...

If I have no intention to leave the country yet, I'll buy it straight away.

All I'm asking is "is buying a car for just a 3 year duration worth it?".
In 2 years time like you said, I'll only have 1 year more in Nigeria and it won't be worth it.
if that's your problem then go and buy a car.cos your first night with your new car will be like 3days to you.before 3months your car sound will start to change.maybe before 7months the two front tyres will need change.so 3yrs with that car will be like for ever.i bought my first car last Yr August.
