it is I have driven it ...EOD , very light

You realize that the error is all yours for not choosing well.

For that, you are half way there.

You mentioned that you married in the Church: brother you know that except adultery and I will say abuse, you can't divorce your wife.

You have tried counseling, reporting her to family etc. etc. and it has not worked.

Now, I want you to try changing your reaction to her attitude. You have been married long enough to 'predict' her actions/inactions.

She forgot your birthday, fine. Celebrate yourself. Go out with the kids, go out with your friends etc.

She tries to keep malice, apologize and move on.

I know it is hard, it is abnormal even however you need to build a shield in your heart so that her attitude doesn't get to you anymore.

Don't beg or cajole her to 'change' or 'be better' or whatever: you are telling her that she has power over you.

Thank God finances are not a thing: treat your self, go on vacations, do the certifications or courses you wanted to. Channel your emotions into the things you have always wanted to do, pick up new hobbies, go to gym and workout youf frustrations etc.

And prayers work: if not for her to change, for you to be whole mentally and emotionally.

It is well.

GoodGovernance:
He is very correct.

You should probably replace him at the driving school.

2 wrongly initiated its overtaking at a bend,obviously,for it to have gained a parallel position with the vehicle 4.

3's case is too glaring,overtaking over a solid line,whether it saw the other ''overtaker'' coming or not.Perhaps got confused with the two guys at the back(or is it mere picture?) at the back of vehicle 1.

If the two guys facing us at the back are real,then vehicle 1 too should share in the fault.

ajl:
That comment this individual made was in response to someone who said only vehicle 3 was wrong. So, he gave a right comment that vehicle 2 was even worse because the person he responded to already said vehicle 2 was wrong. You make sense of that.

alasan007:
1 is wrong in Nigeria you can’t over take from the right hand side only if you know the highway code...

Eddee:
No mind those lazy drivers, they blocked the Corolla and positioned themselves for proper acceleration. Anyways I'm not talking about their petty race, I'm referring to that truck that went past the both of them like nothing in the oncoming lane.

yungboss:
The Infiniti g35/37 is faster than both the 330i and the 328i, they are both easier to live with than the 335i (as you already know). I desire one of those turbocharged engines beyond the 750li ownership. What about the f30 328i for example? though 4cyl turbo...it is faster than the e90 330i and 328i. Truth is, non of these cars' performance will be underwhelming for you, they are finely balanced cars with responsive throttle. Maintenance of BMWs is what I have been used to so if I replace certain things like water pump, sort out cooling issues, I wouldn't consider it a problem...but coming from a g35/37, which perhaps might not need those sort of repairs, you may find it a bid burdensome. People sort of have different tolerance levels, I'm tolerant with the little headaches I experience, so my advice might be really subjective but I guess you understand these things...

nakoks:
I cant understand whats with Nigerians and counting age of cars.If a 20 year old car is in pristine condition so he should use palm oil in it?

HeavenlyBang:
I was waiting for this. You see, I didn't bring a flagship. I brought an equally-priced car.

It's a shame that the LS460 craps all over the CLS when they're priced the same.

ivoryhouse:
We hava a defender 110 we are restoring. We've been able to successfully place a 4.0l engine & transmission from a range rover into it. I'll create a thread here soon. I'd like a supra, preferably pre 1995 model

I concur, tire life should be measured in miles not years. I never did measure since at the time of buying new tires, i always feel like am not gonna a tire for 2 or more years which will be hard to keep record. I ended up needing a tire 1 year later in most cases.

I got the car at 100k and have 220k now, so I used it for 120kmiles in 6 years. The 1st year am sure was less than 10k since i was using another car. I have used it less in the past 1yr so can be said to be 10-15k. So the middle 4years am sure to have clocked 25-30kmiles/yr. I worked in Abj with family in Kaduna, I did a return trip every weekend. In Abj, it was 60km/day.

Toyota interior no reach

My ThreeA wore out completely in 1yr and yours did 6 yrs. Imagine the difference.

I put the same three A on 2 cars, the 2nd car was small and never traveled. The car had 3 ThreeA and 1 Hifly bought same day. The 3 wore out and were obviously expired by the 4th year and leaving the Hifly in far better shape and thread.

The thread wore out completely on both cars leaving other brands. After the ThreeA i used starfire which wore out in 1½years. Then I bought tokumbo grade 1 Michelin. These ones did 2 years but unfortunately both tires blew out same day (what a coincidence and my first blowout). Before the threeA was Maxtrek, worst tire ever. This one, the tire had loss.its shape in less than 6months and was impossible to use with a very good thread. My father bought the same Maxtrek and all 3 were messed up in 6 months. Before Maxtrek was double king, the first tire on this car, then I wasn't using the car so much. But when I started using the car, the tires were through in less than 1 year. I spent a fortune on wheel balancing once the tire reached 6 months.

chiefbuchiV12:
1 should be the faulty driver there, from the look of things the picture looks like some thing from Indonesia, Pakistan or India, there interstate bus drivers are maniacs

Newboss:
Well, going by your logic, in 10 years, the 80m will have a value of zero. Does that make any sense to you?

Newboss:
FGN Bond pays at least 10% a year. Put that 80m there you get at least 8m every year while the 80m remains untouched. If you think that's not enough, then you're very greedy.

maynation:
2 is even worse.
It is wrong to overtake in blind spot areas.
Sharp curves and spots with bends.

GAZZUZZ:
Boss those Dana motors programming no de make sense at all. Tweaked form of OBD1 they have it installed in 2016 Rio's also.

adanny01:
I don't know for your car, AC compressor doesn't kick-in until 2-3 secs after engine starts running.

Unless the clutch power is direct which is never a factory case.

princeogbeide1:
Now you have finally agreed that Lexus is the luxury brand of Toyota. You did well by yielding to my advice to use internet and read wide. So this is why Lexus GS is more preferred to Toyota avalon in terms of overall performance.

Fentanyl:
bros, no offence, but I have a question

are you in any way related to legalwealth?

diportivo:
in the history of derailment


this one holds its own

valarinz:
Bro, each time i go to the East (with unregistered cars) i spend well over 20k on police/customs settlement.

Don't know your routes, but once you turn right at Sagamu bypass to face Benin express the nightmare starts, police checkpoints almost every 2km stretch.

Now, we're all different, I can't leave my house 4am and want to still be on the road by 6pm, all cos i let police delay me over #200 settlements. If you don't want to pay, of course you won't pay, its all about scale of preference, which do you value more, your money or your time.

Calculate multiple #200 payments and FSARS will tell you they won't collect anything below #500, refuse and you'll be delayed. Imagine when 20 checkpoints take 30 mins each away from your journey, won't be funny

replete:
Bros it's your approach that matters; show police you are ignorant then you will be unnecessarily cheated. You can still drive your new car for a certain period before the registration process is concluded and I don't think it's less than a month.

KINGreignn:
Here we go again!

lexini:
thanks Nurey, as always

my concern is that, my wife has an es 350 right now and i feel if i get the rx, i'd eventually get bored of the brand - as per driving same brand everyday. the mdx is the only vehicle that comes close in terms of size and luxury - that's why i'm considering it.

i don't want to depart from toyota/honda

lexini:
