INDUSTRIALFAN:
I see some of you still think the only way to bring cars into the country is via the ports… issok…. Let’s agree to disagree and stay there let over priced duty be killing you people.. This is Nigeria. There are a lot of ways to pay less duty than the overpriced nonsense you’re given at port of entry and I’ll still drive interstate with same vehicle I didn’t spend as much as you did clearing.. where your knowledge stops, that of another begins.

Itsrm:


The guy is a terrible liar

INDUSTRIALFAN:
I sell cars bro. Only greed makes most dealers hike up prices unreasonably.

Let me give you a recent example. Currently in the market, a tokunbo 2006 Mercedes C200 sells for about 2.9m-3M but we shipped one in ourselves and total landing cost rounded up to 2M(this was about 2-3weeks ago) if that car comes in through another dealer, he’ll hike up the price to about 3M. That’s a whooping 1M in profit that he is looking for. Tell me that isn’t greed. 1 million naira on 1 car. Come on man.

INDUSTRIALFAN:
i need you to think of how much you spent in total to buy this car (inclusive of travel expenses and all), look at the car you spent that much buying (result of not asking someone more knowledgeable than yourself to guide you and help you get you preferred car at a faarrr cheaper rate for same toks standard you got) then carefully look at the car images i posted down with their prices attached. Please note that I know the person who sells these cars and I’ve made purchases from him too so no…. They are mot prices meant to pull you in but the actual selling rates at the moment. (Note that the red one is jot tokunbo but is tokunbo standard… see the price…) Sometimes, we have to agree that there are those who know more than we do and that we are not always as smart as we think we are. I’m just so upset you spent so much getting a 2007 Toyota Corolla. Kai… also kindly take a look at this tokunbo 2010 Toyota Corolla going for 4 million naira…. https://www.nairaland.com/6405817/cleanest-2010-corolla-4m-last

camry 2010 I later beg then with 10k after wasting my time.

onatisi:
nothing is expensive if one really wants it . i believe that is what happened to the man , he has been dreaming about the car and will get it at any cost .

Ofemmanu1:


What I'm saying is, this Avalon at 100kmph will dust your Corolla at 100kmph.

It just like a Keke on. 80kmph dragging with a Car at 80kmph.

Ofemmanu1:


On a more serious note, 180kmph on your Corolla is not the same on a Vehicle with a better engine rating.

E. g Your 180kmph is just 110kmph on a Honda Accord DC V6.

Tell me more

Waterbear:
I commend your courage, it's your first time, you made lots of errors looking for a car but thank God you were successful... you spent alot of money I must say, you could get 2012 neatly used Corolla tok grade for half that price or even a very clean es330 for less than 2.5m ... if you had patience and contacted nairalanders before embarking, but for all that it is worth, never regret the experience you had is worth more than what you spent...
I enjoy driving to Lagos and back on my old c 320 very rugged and low maintenance car. Also the cls500 is fuel efficient but high maintenance so that one is for area movement. I'm a Mercedes fan, don't always believe what they say about Toyota's, you'll be surprised their engine and transmission are far way expensive to the Mercedes with a more stronger engine and transmission like the m112 and m112 with 5speed gear.. a reason they call it the bulletproof engine...

Congrats

Let him go and tell that shitty 170kph tale on a cabu-cabu bolt toy car to his mumu PH boys.


The Op is someone with a bad vision that doesn't know about Performance, Torque, Weight, Rev, Engines, Horsepowers and general driving skills typing shitt on NL.
We wey be beta drivers know say hes a fuckkinh shitt LIE.

Shiko77:
when I got to Benin those custom guys told me my custom duty wasn’t completely paid and said I must give them 20k to complete the journey.. it was really an experience

Olayetan:

Its possible, I have done 160km/h with mine and I wasn't feeling the speed too much cux all windows were wind up so I won't doubt if he did 170km/h but that speed is way three much cux any little swerve can result to tumble....

brandsoncharlie:

U are a fast driver, left Lagos at 2pm and arrive at 10pm in owerri.

AbelAbdul:
Next time I will do 170kph i will record it and upload it here.

Rubbiish:

It is not matter of best car
I have been riding 06 corolla for years & I know a lot about that car. When it comes to speed, a lot comes into play, the weight, balance & engine size of that car will not allow u to maintain a 170. U can only tell this to people that are yet to drive a corolla. Not someone that has been using corolla for Benin to abuja for years. Max speed on that car is 180, so u can't run 170!

chukel:
very good oil. That's what I have been using for 2 yrs now

Midoda:


You no know Liqui Moly?

Hi guys, Good evening
I have a question
So since I bought my rx350 over 6months ago
I have frequently been fixing the exhaust of the car due to the unusual sound I hear while driving, but it’s bothering me now cause I’m about to fix it again for the 4th time, my mechanic made mention that some catalyst are missing in it.
I quite didn’t get what he said at the time, but I made my research about it afterwards.

My question is has anyone had a similar experience And how were you able to fix your car. (Lexus rx350)

Hope to hear from you guys soon, and God bless you all.

Bizzyliss:
Drop vin

adubam:


OK. Thanks. I'm still waiting for Boss Gazuzz

adubam:


OK. I don't stay in Lagos though.

adubam:


They don't sell new rack so I heard.

adubam:


Mogbe. Just like that.

adubam:
Boss Gazuzz, Kingreign I don come again.

I went to do alignment and the guy said the steering has gap so I contacted a mech to know what that meant and he told me my steering rack needs to be replaced and Toks was 35k. There's no leakage I only observe swerve on 100km.

I have asked him if it could be repaired but he said no.

I don broke and don't have such money now.

I want to know there's any other way if fixing it apart from replacing.

Thank you.

Antihelminth:


Alright alright ...
Burst my head Sha

Antihelminth:


What makes it better ..Shay it depends on engine size right ..
As BMWs emit alot of heat

Antihelminth:
Sometimes the oil sensor can behave funny and needs changing ..as for oil ..buy this ..around 22k
5w 30 would be better idk ..
