Yet they don't insult their country or call it a failed state.

AbelAbdul:
Where are those who said I will be scammed?

Though I have spent close to N4.1m in this journey.

well, technically it's still a scam. Car you would have bought 3.7m in PH without the stress you went through, you went to Lagos where you should have bought it cheaper and ended up spending 4.1m.

Hi Bimmers, I'm considering buying the 2016 BMW X3 series. Do you think it's a good car for Nigeria road. And could last me 5-10years usage without any issue.

PS: I already have a corolla, so won't be an every day car

5-10yrs without any issues? You must be joking. Even your "reliable" corolla won't be that reliable.

Bizzyliss:
Who has used this oil before, this is an alternative I do use

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

Please where can I get 2010 BMW X5 waterpump (the one with aluminium housing as pictured below) in Nigeria?

His second wedding?

I have always thought he was married

they have been living together and have kids.

Carmart.ng is full of false adverts and scam. OP, you are a very greedy person and as such deserve the scam. How can you want to buy toks corolla at 450k?

The second most stupid comment...

Fish out single mothers...

How does this even make any sense? You're the one who spent years fu** ing anything with a hole... If contraceptives didn't exist, you would be father Abraham... And you think you're in the position to judge?

You want a help mate... Should have thought of that before making yourself a community di**...

I fu**ing hate people like you... If you were smart, women would think you were worth sh** but they don't... Tells a lot...

you sound like an embittered single mum or used girl. Tone down. He didn't mention you when he posted that comment.

alphaNomega:
This is yet another confirmation that Nigeria is a failed state and dying economy.

Cars are products that depreciate as soon as you drive them off the lot even if it was bought brand new.

You have a country that this depreciating product becomes more expensive with time in their local currency.

Tufia

your analogy doesn't make sense. It means U.S is also a failed state cos the used car prices over there have almost doubled. You can ask questions too.

AbelAbdul:
Here is the VIN. Thanks and God bless.

Expecting a feedback from you soon.

hmm.

Sambai65:
car is even cheaper at Abuja than Lagos,if not for security issue kaduna would have better

those cars do not have custom duty paid for them. Beware.

AbelAbdul:
The more I delay the higher the price of the car due to foreign exchange. As at February 2022, a clean tokunbo was worth between 2.3 and 2.5m. Now you can't find that same grade for 3m.

Modified: to clear the car few months ago was about 400 to 600k.
Now clearance cost 1.2m.

I have asked everywhere the same think.

clearance now is 850k

Aaaaarghmed:
You for just stay port buy your corolla ..its it worth it going to lagos to buy cars...the price different no go pass 100k for port price...factor cost of hotel you paid in lagos..transport...fuelling the car when you buy it to port....paying police on road.bros abeg e no worth am.Me I can never leave my location to buy car in Lagos.Its not worth it at all.cars are not cheap in Lag too.

the next issue is with custom

FEGEITOK:
Did anyone here substitute OEM with Arnott's aftermarket air suspension

Like someone mentioned, some R350 have air balloons.

According to the forum lots of people have substituted the OEM with aftermarket.

ok

mejai:
Na husband and wife o! Unless they are optional. The one I used..... e get am.

lol. Thought it was exclusively for the V8 cos I sold an R350 that had normal shocks

Antihelminth:
Thank you .
Honest people don't usually make money in this profession .that's what I've observed

a big lie. If u are good at what you do in any profession, you make money

Raregem9000:
I will change that because i also read about something like that online some days ago. Yes, there's thermostat and it's working well

how did youconfirm your thermostat is working well?

KunleA2:
I think you should have him arrested. i have my converter stolen from the port. The car is a tokunbo. By the time we got it out, it has been stolen. its a camry

Sad.

how? Do they now steal catalyst inside port? Hold your agent responsible

LagosInter:
Tokunbo.

About 120k mileage.

Oil just shows "low, top a quart, driving may cause engine damage"

hope it's not that useless oil sensor failure.

eightsin:
Make Una come buy this car ooo.
My money don finish

the best decision was clearing the car. Like I advised earlier, find money and fix it, then delete this thread and create a new thread to sell this car.

FEGEITOK:
Thanks for your advice.

Is there price-point at which you would consider the R500 value for money?

Or is it an all-round bad vehicle?

why not go for R350 and avoid the V8 and balloon shocks that come with R500. Those things fail easily.

SeaTrade:
Don't twist My words,I said there's no such thing as an enabling environment,its mostly the excuse from people who can't work or are too dumb to think for themselves. America grew and still prospered during the wild west era when anarchy was the order of the day.
I've been in war torn countries in Africa that industries still operate and move their goods and carry out their everyday business in the heart of the insecurity areas,
What they do is they hire the military that come with their technicals they use to escort their trucks on the roads.Where you saw a deficient "enabling environment",smarter people saw POSSIBILITY.

Japan is probably the world's leader in the auto industry,which raw material Japan get?
You are so naive to think that you need to have raw materials before you can produce,whereas there's something known as global trade and very big ships to move oversize load.

Also ,stop with this foreign investor nonsense, local industries can grow to become powerhouses.
We didn't need foreign investments to be self sufficient and even export cement,Infact lafarge is playing second fiddle to Dangcem and BUA at the moment.
Same way we can grow local auto makers to become giants too and one way to do that is to raise tarrifs for cheap imports,so that they can not be dirt cheap and be low-balling the markets.
I even think the mark up is small ,that useless 03 corolla should sell for 6m in my opinion.

I like this guy. Kudos to your reasoning.

Trueprophet91:
And when you buy these 'brand new' cars from innoson and co, where are you going to drive them? In the air?
No good roads!

Let basic necessities be attended to first before talking about...

the roads that have been rehabilitated or newly constructed, did you guys not condemn it by asking who will drive on those roads when everyone is dying of hunger and insecurity? We never appreciate anything. Never. We are bunch of ingrates.

Ibim seminitari was not with Amaechi even though she is a big beneficiary of Amaechi. She was a staunch supporter of the V.P. Not shocked. As for Yobana Marvin, that one na political prostitute.

nedekid:
Oga, just ignore him. Turkey that is the destination of choice for Nigerian traveller's now. Better and cheaper than Dubai sef. I and madam are meant to do 5 days there before proceeding to UK and mainland Europe for our vacation ie goodtime. This ban spoils our plan.

try and go please.

nedekid:
Are you kidding? Turkish economy dead?
What then will you say about your country?

small Google will help you. They are almost going the way of Sri Lanka

ojesymsym:
Politicians never cease to amaze in Nigeria.

Where is Amaechi in all of this?

I de tell you. I'm very disappointed.

Mrkumareze:
You are readibg from the wrong source bro. Their growth in the first quarter I'd of 7.3...

After China, Turkey is the next destination where we import our goods from..

smh. Turkey's economy is crumbling. The inflation rate is 75%. They have been protesting.

Mrkumareze:
We can't get to their level of development in the next 50 years, so let us pay more attention to our shithole..

you have a smartphone. Just Google about Turkey's present economic condition.

Wike is a very wicked human that should actually have no interactions with others. He is mad diri nursed an ambition to be V.P and also made attempts to be. Very greedy wike. He wants everything to himself. He produced secondus single handedly. He drove him away single handedly. He produced Ayu as chairman. He wanted the presidential ticket. He wanted VP too.what sort of greed is this. Is he the only one? He should nurse ambitions but when another does, it becomes betrayal. Wike can poison people
