I have a Toyota Camry 2008. Its extremely neat. The inside is like a tear rubber... No story. Used for a year, all papers in tact, even comprehensive Insurance.
Ac is harmattan. Cream colour

I also have 2009 Corolla, its as neat as tear rubber. Metalic color. Spare tyre has never been used. Ac is freezer.
ANY SERIOUS BUYER SHOULD CONTACT ME.

How?

How are you so sure the people you met on JiJi parading the car are for real?

Criminals parade like they are selling a car and after you have transferred thr money they take you indoors and finish you off. Hence many people go missing everyday.

Sha be careful. Conduct all your businesses in an open place. Even if you have to sign a receipt, it must be in an open place.

Bros, slow down. Take your expenses so far and go home. When your are relaxed you can resume your search again. Cars plenty but na so sharp guys plenty. N3M no be here oo.

@poster, you sound desperate to get his your Toyota car and the way you sound you may be scammed or get a bad car. Calm down and take your time to search. When I wanted to buy my car last year it took me months after searching before I finally got a very good car that hasn’t given me any issue till today. I’m in PH but bought mine in Lagos. Car is about engine. A car may be clean but the engine is very bad.

For now, go back to PH. A friend went to Lagos last week to get this same Corolla but he couldn’t find a good one that meets his budget. He came back to PH without buying. If you have a friend or family member in Lagos tell them to search for you. You can also contact car dealers in PH. Take your time to search. Cars are now very expensive, don’t use your money to buy rubbish. Also, don’t make the mistake of driving an unregistered car to PH from Lagos. Policemen and Customs on the way will use you shine.

Good morning all. I believe you all are doing great.
I want to share my experience leaving Port Harcourt for Lagos to buy a Toyota Corolla.

I embarked on this journey on Sunday 10th July.
I came to Lagos to purchase the car because of these three conditions;
1. I thought it will cheaper in Lagos than Port Harcourt.
2. I believed in Lagos I will see much of it and would have a choice.
3. I believed in Lagos I will get the best with everything intact.

Before coming to Lagos I had my preferred model in mind. That's 2005 LE model.
if you are in lagos I can direct you to a car dealer I can vouch for, simply quote me so I can forward his number.. You can contact him.. He doesn't purchase a car with even minor problems so he can't sell you any with even a slight problem.. The car you are looking for is 3.3, last time I checked his online pages

I'm sorry to say, moving all the way from pH to Lagos without contacting car dealers on nairaland is not a wise decision. Who does that?
It's like going to the jungle as an amateur hunter in search of the forbidden egg which can only be gotten by fearless and experienced hunters (Nollywood scenario) shey you no know say you dey waste your own time ni?

Re: My Experience Going To Lagos To Purchase A Toyota Corolla by abumoney(m): 11:20am On Jul 13, 2022
My honest advise, go back to ph and guy from there. If you look at cost of transportation, hotel bills, cost of fueling the car to ph, police settlement, It is more adviseable to buy in ph

If you don't mind, you can checkout some car dealers in Abeokuta since you're still in Lagos. I'll be on the lookout this morning when I'm out though
Re: My Experience Going To Lagos To Purchase A Toyota Corolla by angelfallz(m): 11:27am On Jul 13, 2022
Go back to PH and buy it there nah. Because if you buy it in Lag, you would have to ship it to PH, unless you are prepared to drive it yourself from Lag to PH.

I'm already fade up and have spent so much in hotels and tired of junks food I ate here.

I'm about setting for a car which isn't my preferred choice and also buying a car in Lagos with Port Harcourt price.

First things first, get the VIN and revert back let me run a free VIN check for you. Avoid buying a savage(d) car. Do not, I repeat, do not buy any car without knowing the vehicle history. I don't know the craze about this particular model of corolla. I also do not know the reason for the over bloated prices but what I do know is, when the price falls below the average market price, then the car is most definitely from a savage auction.
Here is the VIN. Thanks and God bless.
