Full options smart Tv. Has every feature of a smart Tv except touch screen. Breathtaking picture quality absolutely brilliant.

Excellent value for money both in features and cost. Samsung UAMU7000.

If you are in the market for a brand new 4k TV. just save your money and thank me later. call if interested. 160k negotiable.

Update: Thank you for your interest but please note this is not a used tv from Alaba market, almost all of the used tvs there have been worked on or altered in one way or another.

This Tv was personally bought brand new 8 months ago. It is still exactly as the manufacturers intended. price is open for reasonable negotiation.

Lol keep swimming in your own pool of ignorance.

I just feel sorry for you. Truly.

GreatrAnalyst:
Thank you.
Is this in a bid to promote a Nigerian tribe as great or what? Emeagwali is a phenomenon, but he never invented the internet. 'Internet' wasn't even a product of a single person. Many contributed to it and then largely the PhD works of the British Sir Tim Berners-Lee blew it open.
People just copy ignorance and spread it apace.

LazyGold:
He only developed an Oil Reservoir nothing even closer to the World Fastest computer and it was stated on his Wikipedia page

At first you guys said he invented the World Fastest Computer

But now you are saying he invented the Internet

LazyGold:
Google denied

fiercehillz:
Lie of the century...chai.


He has no connection, I repeat "no connection" with the internet... He neither designed the fastest nor the most cost effective computer... He was even the first runner up in the competition and since an individual or a team is not allowed to go home with two awards, the judges decided to give him an award as the first runner up.


The development of the internet started before he was born in the 1950s... He neither designed any model nor any protocol.

Some of you are blinded by tribalism some of you simply can not comprehend what was posted.

The black man is great.

FACTS
1) All races evolved from the black race
2) The black race were the inventors of mathematics, Arts & paints,
3) Africa is the first home of humans
4) Africa introduced medicine to the world
5) Africans invented writing
6) Africans invented Architechture.

Stop bleaching your skin. Stop denying whom you are. Resist the brainwashing that Africans are inferior. It is a wicked lie!!

Now it is, "will not readily bite."

I don't know why our people are aversed to correction and superior argument.

Python bites. It's as simple as that. Although the bites are not poisonous, but does not preclude susceptibility to infection.

Whatever. My point have been made. I can gently pick up a stray python it wont bite. I cant do same to a cobra. You can continue picking holes to support your "superior argument"

adanny01:
See it this way,

The most reliable Lexus
The most performing BMW
The most reliable and performing? Both Lexus and BMW lose points while Benz gains points.

If your choice is Lexus, you didn't get the most performing car among the lot. If your choice is Benz, its neither the most reliable nor the most performing.


Also if you get the Lexus, that means you priotized reliability ahead of performance.
If you get the Benz, that means you priotized performance ahead of reliability.

If you really want to prioritize both reliability and performance, then you should buy both Lexus and BMW so that your garage can show exactly your priorities. You would have ended up separating reliability and performance.

Priorities means compromise either reliability or performance. You can't avoid the compromise.

I get your point. What i meant was something VERY reputable in both reliability and performance. And not necessarily the best of the best on both.

drakeskull:
I swear some people no get sense especially comments on second page. The dude has stated what his choices are and what he doesn’t care about and here they are mentioning Corolla, Camry.

@oseundada

Not that they dont have sense, it is just their understanding. Thats what you get when you seek opinion from the public. Many of them will go offpoint. Many will abuse you. Many will judge you(they dont know you ooo or anything about you). Many will give advice (to give advice cheap na aaaa. No be online we dey?). Many will try to be selfish. Just a few will understand and respond accordingly.

adanny01:
I am very sure i didnt say Benz is an unreliable car.

What am saying is, reliability is relative. You have to put one car against another.

On reliability, Lexus vs Benz, Lexus wins

On performance, Lexus vs Benz, Benz wins

The fact that Lexus won reliability against Benz does not mean Benz is totally unreliable or that Lexus is totally non performing.

On reliability Benz vs BMW, i say Benz wins. So this means that reliability or performance is simply relative.

My point basically is that when you combine reliability and performance, you will have to compromise on each of them.

Among your list of Cars, BMW is the best performance car but the least reliable. Eliminating it from your list means you have compromised performance for reliability.

To get a car that is both reliable and performing, you rate the cars according to performance side by side as you rate the cars on reliability. Score them 5 as best to 1 as worst. Add the score on both list and the car with the highest points is your choice.

Let me do it for you

Performance
BMW 5
Benz 4
Audi 3
Lexus 2
Infinity 1

Reliability
Lexus 5
Infinity 4
Benz 3
Audi 2
BMW 1

Total
Lexus 7
Benz 7
BMW 6
Infinity 5
Audi 5

Your choice is between the Benz and Lexus. You still have to finally decide whether you want reliability or performance.

If the benz can score 3 out of 5 in your books. then it is reliable. If it is reliable and can perform then you will agree with me sir that reliability and performance can both be absolutely priorities when one intends purchasing a vehicle.

adanny01:
Let me tell you something. Most toks you see with less than 80k or less are salvaged. The ones you see 80-100k clean title are the normal ones Americans sell off to avoid expensive turn around maintenance. Most cars specify complete maintenance at 100k. The work includes, spark plugs, all fluids in the car, including brake and clutch hydraulics, clutch, fuel pump, timing belt, valve clearance, catalytic converter and a host of others. They preempt this mileage and avoid the cost by trading off for a brand new car instead. A very few will do the maintenance and cross the mileage while the least will not do anything at all.

It means i will prefer to buy a 150k clean title than buy a 50k salvaged. 200k car is an evidence of good maintenance but a 50 salvaged is a 50-50 risk.

Always on point.

AyobamiSky:
@ Op, i have read all the posts on this topic, starting with yours and i did observe one thing; People have offered you advice,even based on personal experiences, talked to you about issues of reliability, performance, maintenance and more, even named other options while giving you concrete reasons as to why you intial choice range of cars is probably not the best but seems you could care less. You asked for enlightenment and advice but you seem so resolute n unyeilding. it seems you only want someone to tell you to go ahead, somebody to justify your thoughts. Well, feel free not to take any opinion or advice here((Lord knows i wont offer you any) but if you need someone else to tell you your thoughts are right, then you should know you already have a doubt on your mind about that thought

Please try to comprehend the post sir. I never asked for advice on a choice of car(you can keep your advice.Thanks). I simply listed out a selected list of cars and asked people which they would choose giving my criteria of reliability and performance. So which would you choose and why?

adanny01:
You dont believe there are cars at 260k miles that are more reliable than others at 100k miles.

There are cars that at 300k miles, an engine swap can take them to 500k if you hold on long enough. The problem is most people would upgrade before they use a single car for 200k miles.

I bought my car at 100k 2013 and clocked 200k 2019 2 weeks ago (see pix below), do you think i will still be driving this same car at 300k if i can afford a change? There are same cars like mine which are 100k but are not 50% as good as mine. There are others at 250k to 300k that are still better than mine. Am sure Piyke's car has received extensive oem parts than mine and i know he clocked 200k miles before mine, which in your opinion has more value at point of sale?

Mileage is not everything, the physical state of the car is better than what the mileage tells you.

you are dead right. but some naive people do not get it. Once a car model is above 12 years they think its about to pack up or a mechanic workshop magnet. I know i will get what i am looking for. All that is required is patience.

OkaNaUbe:
Nice recommendation. OP listed cars are "luxury/performance" cars. He didn't.consider running and maintenance costs.

A Civic too is good but I prefer the aforementioned car.

I dont care about the maintenance cost. All i need is a car in good condition that is agile and reliable with power. it can be old but not that old. i never mentioned luxury but it seems my criteria is tied to luxury but thats ok too. everyone has got preferences. yours is economical and reliable. Mine is powerful and reliable.


you can suggest other brands if you know but it has to be on par with the ones i listed as long as i can get it for 1.5.

baconline:
Get a 2003 corolla

I know its easy to maintain and bla bla bla........
but thats not what i am looking for. thanks for contributing

adanny01:
What is perform and what is performance?

Have i not said if it is performance i choose Benz?

Reliability is different.

ok. so you are of the opinion that benz is not reliable. noted
If otherwise then you just contradicted yourself when you said reliability and performance can not both be priorities at the same time.
anyways i get your point.

Ps: to answer your question perform and performance are the same thing. Perform is just the verb form of the noun performance.

adanny01:
Reliability is a single word to describe cars that tolerate abuse.

Reliability is relative. If you ask me, which is more reliable between the 3 series and E class on your list, i would say E class. E class vs Lexus, i would say Lexus. If you talk performance, i would reverse the list in the same order.

If you mix reliability and performance, then you turn the list on its head. You will need to drop your performance standards as well as your reliability standards as a compromise.

Thats why i prefer you first get priorities right. Reliability and performance cannot be both priorities at the same time.

If you priorities reliability, i choose Lexus. If you choose performance Benz is my choice. These choice is among the 5 options you gave..

That is your opinion. It is appreciated. However I beg to differ on the bolded. For instance, People have already praised the benz on reliability are you saying it cannot perform?

AkpaMgbor:
Pythons don't have fangs..fangs are for venomous snakes..it is the two curved teeth situated in the front..and they have grooves inside with which venom is injected..it is just like the hypodermic needles used in hospitals...all snakes have a backwards curved rows of teeth..constrictors use theirs to latch onto their prey before curling their bodies round the prey to suffocate it...so yes Pythons bite..they bite to when they need to feed or when they feel threatened..and while their bites don't have venom, you can still get tetanus or infection if not properly cleaned with antiseptic.

Now i know the difference between fangs and teeth. Thanks.
I never said pythons never ever bite. It is impossible. You guys fail to comprehend what i wrote. To help you get the point i'll ask one question.
If you put a cobra and a python in different glass boxes and then tap the boxes so as to disturb the snakes. What will be the reaction of both snakes.

I dont want to argue. If you answer the question honestly you will grasp the point i am trying to make which is pythons dont bite.

MobilityExpress:
You're the one who is confused. You said pythons don't bite, now you are saying a python will not readily bite. But the inarguable fact is Pythons bite, end of story!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPQzenQMxKs

There are thousands of videos on the internet of pythons biting if you need more

Aw lawd!! Oga abeg carry your wahala go. Its not a competition ok? You can continue wasting your time searching the whole of the internet for ways to twist what i said.
My point has been made. And during your search i know you get my point.

MobilityExpress:
You're 100% wrong. Pythons bite, because like all snakes pythons have fangs too. And how can you compare a python (natural predator) and a goat (herbivore)? Just search python bite on YouTube and educate yourself

Your confusion is its fangs. Well here is a shocker. Pythons use its fangs to help push the prey down into its stomach, thats why they are curved inwards. Same applies to all snakes with fangs poisonous or not. It is you that needs to dig and find out. Some other fellow in same school of thought as you posted a link to an article to prove me wrong. You can read the article.

A python will not readily bite.

Yoighaman:
http://www.reptileknowledge.com/articles/article31.php

Let's save the argument.

You did not even bother to read the article. Because that article just proved my point.

MobilityExpress:
No, it bites but it's not poisonous. It kills by constriction

Brother Pythons dont bite.

Its just like saying goats bite.
ofcourse goats bite, any organism that has got teeth or fangs bite, but they wont readily bite for instance just like a dog would. Same applies to pythons.

adanny01:
3)

My concern is that you mixed up 2 words.

When you dont care about maintenance cost you seem to say you dont care about reliability, but you want a reliable car. Thats confusing for me.

Reliability? Japanese
Performance? German

Your choice is obvious since you dont care about fuel efficiency nor maintenance cost, Benz should match your performance needs, Lexus your reliability needs.

Not confusing atall. There are reliable cars that can even tolerate abuse, while there are some car models that are just prone to periodic engine problems no matter what you do talkless of abuse.

4llerbuntu:
if you don't care about the maintenance cost then buy any. The benz would be a great option especially if it is in good condition.

as for the bolded..... highly unlikely if you'll be driving it a lot, especially because of bad roads, bad fuel, and stop and go traffic.

May not be major stuff though. a leaking hose here, blocked radiator there, some random sensor failing or small engine part failing, A/C misbehaving

the age and mileage makes it inevitable.

but experiences differ sha. some people get luck with cars.

On point. Words on marble

Nice offer but you are derailing the thread. This is a lovely car but it is not even in my thoughts talkless or owning it.

temmym4:
All i see here are luxury cars. My brother. Your 1.5Million doesnt actually matter. What you Actually ignored is what matters mostly.

A reliable car is as good as it's maintainace culture, if u can afford it.

Forget the money you have at hand, put their future maintanance and cost first, then decide the exact car that suits your budget.

Well, if i was in your dream, lets say we ignore Maintenance cost as u have specified i.e you have got enough cash to throw around, then.. Option 2 (2004 - 2009 Mercedes Benz E class) will serve you well and you will never for once in your life think about using another brand of vehicle other than benz at your next upgrade. Trust me.

But in reality, buying a previously naija used luxurious vehicle at 1.5M without considering maintanance cost afterward. Either u wound the car mechanically, electrically plus physically or the car wounds you Emotionally and finacially plus in physical.. One will surely happen.

The bolded is the kind of response i was looking for. Thanks for your suggestion.
For what its worth i have driven a 99 accord V6. Before my present car. I drove that car for 4 years before purchasing a pilot. From my experience that car is pretty damn reliable despite its age.(i just top oil and fuel and zoom off). I hardly visit the kazeem except for minor things that i can ignore if i wish, but i have a serious maintenance culture so i fix it anyways. Its draw back is its gear(it has a short lifespan no matter what you do.). This type of draw back is the reason i put up these choice of cars for people that know stuff about them to contribute and point out their flaws if any. We will all learn a thing or two including the angry or sarcastic peeps here. And from what i gathered the accord can tolerate abuse too.
Now comparing the accord to a friends 2005 nissan maxima he maintains his car well but that car is not reliable.
I thought i needed an suv but it turns out what i actually want is performance. The pilot body rolls a lot and i am never comfortable on very high speeds.

As long as i bought the car in good condition then I dont bloody care about the maintenance costs. No be 2019 G wagon neither are they more recent benz models or other luxury brands. The funds for maintenance must one way or another become available. All i want is agile performance and reliability. I strongly believe 1.5 million will get me at worst a good tokumbo 14 year old performance machine that is reliable. Or a good earlier model that is nigerian used.

4llerbuntu:
A Car in this range would be at least 14 - 20 years old.

'put fuel and top oil' is highly unlikely.

you go spend money regularly to keep it moving.

Even where it has been single owner or well maintained, some parts will regularly develop issues, e.g the suspension parts. especially if they've not been changed or worked on in the past.

what you should bother yourself with is the pricing for the parts and ease of repair for such vehicles.


thats why your list is looking funny. BMW, Benz, Audi should not be on your list if you don't have money to spend. those kain motor fit cough lasan and you are looking at 300k bill.


I don't know how well Infiniti cars age.... but if you are buying it Nigerian used, consider the fact that because they are expensive to maintain, the owner would have overlooked some stuff to save his pocket occasionally.


the RX ages well, but RX300 is about 18 years old now....... and there's 'Toyota Tax' to consider. original parts no cheap o


last last, choose the one you want and be prepared to take what you get. na luck

Very well said. Anyway i dont care about the maintenance costs. As long as the car was in good condition when it was bought. The maintenance must be done. My primary concern is performance and the reliability of the engine.

But are you saying one can not buy an 18 year old car and drive for at least 3 to 4 months. Or even longer. without repairing something
