EventsRe: Bisola Umoren: "I'm A Natural Beauty" - Makeup Free Bride by benzmatic: 6:56pm On Aug 26, 2016
Women and jealousy? They would not let this pretty young lady alone. She didn't attack anyone, she's just confident enough to be different and comfortable in her own skin. She didn't claim to be an angel either. She doesn't dig make up, you can't go without make up: to each his own.
I must commend her still, she is very very pretty. But beyond that she is also very confident, the type that will not follow the crowd. I congratulate her husband. Many men dislike heavy make up anyway, but no make up at all? Maybe a few men can stomach that. Having said that, I would say it takes some degree of natural beauty to pull off a no make up look on your wedding day and still be presentable, it is definitely not for everyone.

This is still 'the most classic' lambo. It was the first supercar to shock the motoring world. Prior to This, everyone deferred to the ferrari. This one went head to head with the tessarosa if i'm correct. They were both great cars, they still are. Remember all the car posters when I was younger, if I was to imagine a sports car on a poster then, no doubt it would be red tessarosa or a black contact. The guys at top gear compared the lambo to an untamed beast that could not be driven slowly. They said it tried to kill you, lol.

It's a really fine car, if truly it is in the condition depicted by the images. You can add an image of the engine. Lucky sale.

Vboot is big 190 and a little extra depending on specification.

Shocks are average 2k each, bushings are 600n each. They are many though.

price reviewed following advice by well meaning Nigerians in the merc whatsapp group.


i believe this car is a better bargain than even a clean 'toks', why:

for one it is prettier, i know because i drive it around and compare. some people take a second look at it. if you have pictures of a better looking toks in Nigeria, i throw it as a challenge for you to paste

it will not likely have the 16v body kit, its stll scarce here

it will be unpredictable because it will be operating in a new environment under different hands, technicians and drivers

the things that will likely go wrong with your toks within 6 months to 1 year: it will overheat once it gets into heavy traffic, the fuel pump will fail and you won,t know what happened, the injector will act up, you will think it is your battery, your mechanic will think so to, he will eventually help you convert it to a carburetor

it will not likely have ac, if it has, it will fail within 6months, you will put another compressor, etc. it will fail again

it will not have sweet alloy wheels like mine, they will remove it at the port to put on one camry, those ones sell faster

it will not have new tyres for the same reason above

it will have a stupid auto trans that will fail to shift into 5th gear on the highway, in town it will go from 1st to 3rd gear in traffic

the oil in the rear axle will be dried up, the axle will get shot after some time, and your toks 190 will be struggling with nissan micra


i,m not bragging, don,t laugh prove me wrong. there are many dealers here, let them post pictures of their 190. i will score them, nairalanders can judge.

the only thing your 190 will have on mine is maybe cleaner finishing inside from lack of use. even that is not guaranteed, unless of course you get a 2.6, or a sportline edition in excellent condition. now those worth are their weight in gold, only then will i show you some respect. they will not be cheap though. trust me. and an original 16v in clean shape with the original 2.3/2.5l 170hp+ naturally aspirated, mechanical valve lifter fitted engines without turbo or super charger: that is way out of your league. believe me.

to the poster above, if u are really a beginner and just managing. it may be risky to begin with a Benz. but the c class is a realistic place to start. just get one in good condition. it will not be as cheap as you think most likely.
Budget about 15k for servicing every 10,000km thereabout. I have not used a c class before, but i heard of MAF meter failure, fuel pump failure, not costly repairs. check automatic transmission meticulously before buying. good luck.
