Car Talk › Re: Fuel Situation In Abuja Today, Sunday, 10th April 2016 by boldx(op): 3:17pm On Apr 10, 2016

Fuel was dispensed at N86.50, am quite satisfied with their metering system. My fuel tank is full at the commensurate cost. Quite sad and annoyed that the fuel attendants do not want to fill up the reserve after buying unless if you stand your ground and refuse to pay. They will waste your time and come back and fill it.

Car Talk › Fuel Situation In Abuja Today, Sunday, 10th April 2016 by boldx(op): 2:42pm On Apr 10, 2016

I bought fuel last week saturday at MRS Fuel station by Banex plaza and I cruised all through the week to so many places. My fuel tank is about 75 litres so I had about a third of that quantity (approximately) left. I was supposed to buy yesterday saturday but due to the FCT chairmanship and councillorship elections. I couldn't buy fuel.

Today, Sunday, it was terrible. I managed to fill my tank at Oando Gwarinpa just by Gwarinpa Entrance if you follow NEXT/Kado Road. By 9a.m, there were lots of black market fuel sellers. The fuel queue was moving like once every one and half hours and the queue had about 30 cars. After about 2 hours, I was able to buy fuel and fill my tank. Imagine, they were selling with only one nozzle to both sides of the queue all lined up. The security men there told me in confidence that there was enough fuel cos their tanker offloaded saturday night( just yesterday). A lot of black market boys were coming with their dismantled generator fuel tanks to buy fuel. Most of these boys came so many times to buy fuel. Of course, you will know its not for generator. The fuel station manager was there and he saw it happening life.

Driving on Kubwa road today, The queues at NNPC mega station opposite Jahi was up to 2km long if not more. The fuel station opposite had very long queues. On my way back to town from Dutse, I saw 2 long fuel tankers, driving into Abuja. I am sure there should be enough fuel this week if all fuel stations in Abuja sell fuel by using all their 'nozzles'

If you are in Abuja, share your experience from your location.

Bought a nissan maxima 2004 model for a friend for 1.4m toks my guy spent an extra 500k fixing almost everything from engine overheating to gear not shifting especially when vehicle becomes hot....it wasn't funny though. I did adviced my friend never to go it especially for a first car but d guy insisted its a maxima or nothing else. The aftermath experience wasn't funny at all. Thank God he had d cash to spend. Cos for me spending extra 500k on a car I just bought is crazy....

I dont know whats wrong with Nissan? A friend has this car V6 and is about to change the second engine. I was shocked to see a clean car but he shocked me that he is about to change the engine a record 2nd time in a year. The car smokes and makes an engine noise.
The car is a comfortable ride with very sharp engine and gear responce but when it fails, it fails hands down.

Nissan is a rip off.

Beware of anyone that tells you that he has a car for sale and has not advertised it here on Nairaland. Please check each car seller's posts to know if they truly have a car to sell. Times are evil oh.

Exercise caution please.

Because you had issues with your altima doesn't make all atima cars bad. I owned a Nigerian used for about 2 years. Only things i changed were tyres, running belts and normal servicing. Probably you weren't too careful about maintaining your car

I will not answer you because its not worth it. OP, my altima made me a part time mechanic. 4 years and 9 months is no joke. The day the engine parked up, there was enough engine oil in the engine.

I have moved on and i know better. Like I said, the first one year was great. The 2nd year was the beginning of troubles. It became more difficult until I changed the engine after 4 years of buying it as tokunbo. I sold it for N340,000.

How many nissan altima's will you see on the highway today? How many 99 models, 2000 model, 2002, 2003, 2004 and so on? I can buy a nissan almera again but not an altima.

ptoall1000:
so which good and spacious car can recommend for me for that price?

For me, with N750,000 you will get a good bargain for a well maintained 2003 Camry (Big For Nothing). I will serve you more than this drumstick you want to buy. Most of all, run a physical inspection, drive test, run a scan on the car, and get 2 or 3 experienced people to check the car out for you.
There are other cars but I am ok with 2003 Camry 4 cyl or V6.
N600,000 - Buy this car
N80,000 - Buy an engine
N20,000 - Pay the mechanic

That is if the tokunbo engine you bought does not have an issue. If it does, you have to pay the mechanic another N20,000 to remove the tokunbo engine and fix another one

i don't think the price is too good to be true because I will still buy engine. more so I don't intend to use the car for more than two years, when I 'll get a brand new one.

İ will never buy this ride. Look away. N600,000 can buy a very good and spacious ride with a good engine.
İts either your
a) mechanic is the one that is convincing u to buy because he wants to make N50,000 from you or
b) A friend of yours who has been so nice to you is trying to convince you

...Guy use your common sense...#NissanAltimagetplenty wahala.

Car Talk › Re: What Can U Guys Say About This Nissan? Can I Buy It? by boldx(m): 3:29pm On Apr 06, 2016

its not a good bargain at all. A whole N600,000. You have money to waste. İ will buy it N400,000 maximum without the engine.

I have owned an Altima 99. Used it for 4 years and 9 months. That car nearly wrecked my bank account. I wont buy that car for my enemy. Though I never changed the transmission. It worked perfectly well. Engine knocked after 3.5years. Changed the fuel pump like 20 times. Overheating occasionally. I never accelerated at full blast in the last 3 years or there were issues after that. So many issues. I bought it as tokunbo. Enjoyed it for only 1 complete year. It started having problems when i started driving in serious hold-up. Real serious problem.

My Space Wagon GDI 2000 bought in 2014 as I said earlier on this trend got me stock last tuesday 29-03-2016. He will start, move then off. The scanners brought to it can't read its problem. We have changed the switch sensor and got one coil burn as a result also the nozzle cleaned. In short the car is no more starting and the advice is to do away with the engine, brain box and wiring.

Any advice please.

Thanks

Its good to know if your vehicle number plate is real or fake.

Go to www.nvisng.org/numberplateverification.aspx
click on number plate and type your number plate
e.g. ABC495XA
then click verify.
Warning: Do not type it as ABC 495 XA, meaning do not include spaces between letters and numbers.
