yesloaded: 4.1m on Toyota Corolla is nothing but waste of money + time
It's good that you arrive port Harcourt safely
You could have just buy at 3.7m in port Harcourt & save your 400k
That 400k will fuel your car for more than a year I saw online that Lagos price was cheaper that was why I go to Lagos |

Rayd502: Op I admire you guts for a not too experienced driver handling a car all the way from Lagos.
You should have gone with a trusted friend,the trip would have been a bit interesting. And a second opinion on some matters can be useful.
Then again the security risk involved in these uncertain times we are in being that you were in an unfamiliar terrain for the first time.
Thanks to God you succeeded in achieving your goal.
Enjoy your ride. Thank you. I have uploaded pics of the car |

However, if you spent 4.1m it wasn't what you had planned to spend.
Sometimes in life it's good to just do what you have always wanted to do.
Kudos.

.... this one na correct mugu... All I see in your post is a mere jealousy. As for the pictures of the car, that place is not PH. That is a village in Ogoni land. I went for a friend's wedding there so I took pictures of the car. I live in PHC an environment cleaner than Lekki. |

I NEED TIPS ON HOW TO MAINTAIN THE CAR.
Please Corolla users give me TIPS. The dos and donts of the car.

I HAD ACCIDENTS ON MY WAY
I left Lagos by 8am arrived PH by 9:39pm. Had a lot of stop over and delays on the road due toto police. And I missed my way in Edo state.
When I entered Bayelsa it was getting dark I couldn't see clearly so I was moving slowly.
Couldn't see potholes. Ran into a big pothole my fog light pulled off.
Second accident was when a trailer put eyes in my eyes a d I was about dodging it I saw myself in a bush. That is to God the car has brake.
So when I see car's coming towards me I stopped till they pass before I moved.
The last accident was at a checking point in Ahoda LGA.
I didn't know it was a checking point and that a car was in my front. I ran into the car and the front bumber broke.
Thank God the car owner I hit was understanding |

CAR PERFORMANCE I will not regret going to Lagos to get the car. That car's performance is 100%
If car's were birds, that car would be an eagle. The car was flying. I was moving at 170kph.
I was told that before I reached PH I will visit filling station thrice to refuel it.
And I believed because when I was going to Lagos our driver visited the filing station thrice.
The fuel consumption of this car is amazing. I filled up the tank in Lekki 55ltrs filled in.
I on A/C from Lagos to PH. I arrived PH with enough fuel still in the tank. |

POLICE AND CUSTOMS PALAVA I was told at that warehouse that whether I register the car or not that police will disturb me. I should hold money to settle them.
I had withdrew 50k in 200, 500 and 1000 naira notes for settlement.
My papers were complete but these officers wouldn't let me go unless I settle them.
I was just giving them money on the way.
Some I gave 5k some 2k some 1k some 500 some 200.
I spent a lot settling police at a point I made up my mind that I was not going to giveLagos them again.
When I don't give they delay me and it was getting dark and I can't see at night so I didn't have a choice than to be giving them money.
Due to police delay I missed that bus I was following. Well, those polic guys also help show me the road. |

THE JOURNEY TO PORT HARCOURTAs early as 7am I was on my way toto LIBRA park. I used to hear of LASTMA officials and how wicked they are to drivers. I was praying not to fall victim. I used Google map straight to the park. Met a driver heading to Port Harcourt. I told him I came to Lagos to purchase a car. I don't know my way back to ph and would like to follow him. He told me no problem. Soon his bus was full and he started moving. I started my car it did not start. I almost fainted. That was the last bus to ph how will I do. I opened the bonnet hit the battery and it started. I moved with speed even drove one way in order to meet up with the driver. Finally met him then changed lane and was following him at the back will we got to Ogun state. When we reached Ondo state he stoped at their stopping point told me that police and custom will disturb me on my way and in case he drove pass he directed me how I will get to warri. techgen: The story looked framed... 4.1m overall for corolla with electrical issue... How many check point dey between lagos and edo... The head light and bumper pulled off through accident and yet you come finally say, you got home safely and no damage on car... No pictures of your trip.
Linus just too full this country!!! Read with understanding. I never said the bumber pulled off. I said bumber broke while fog light pulled off. Know the difference between fog light and bumber. That is the bummber being worked on after their accident.
