Car Talk / Re: Trip From Abuja To Enugu & Anambra With My 505 V6 (1,505 Km/935 Miles) by cmax16: 6:55pm On Jan 09, 2013
gmyguy: may be he was pulling a bird out of the front grill...the vw golf tdi probably, good performance, would smoke the 505 anyday anytime....and my vw jetta too

Get serious man, no way in hell will a jetta smoke a Peugeot 505 with a V6 engine. I have owned a Jetta executive car previously, i know its capabilities. Can't say much about the Golf GTI though, never driven one.

Ikenna351:

I dont know anything about Hyundai Sonata. But a 2.4 L engine doesn't sound like a V6 engine. I could be wrong, though.

The V6 engine, ES9J4S, in 407 V6 (petrol), is the same V6 engine in phase II 406 V6. The engine develops the maximum of 210 hp. Its a good engine. Phase II 406 V6 manual transmission is the next car i plan to own.

Please, note that 407 also have a Diesel V6.

Ikenna.

Thanks Man. I certainly be looking at that Phase II 406 V6 engine. But how would you know its a phase II? would it be the latter models? like 2000-2003? cheers man.

Car Talk / Re: Why Are Nigerian Car Dealers So Greedy?! by cmax16: 2:19am On Jan 05, 2013
baby-boy:
I dont know how much a 2006 Peugeot 407 cost in Nigeria but I have a friend who bought a one for £2100 (RHD) we drove it from Newcastle to Tilbury and they shipped for £440 to Nigeria

The agent he used charged him N300,000 and the car was delivered to his door in Ipaja!!! then paid N180000 to change the steering over to LHD,

So we are looking at around N1.2m


Now going by that process, last year I man wanted to sell me a 2000 Peugeot 406 for £1m,

This is a car that I could get in England for around £500 (cheaper if it has failed an MOT or even Cheaper at a car Auction) around £500 to Ship and around £1k to clear,

May be N200k change the steering over!!! to the Left and they are now changing them over to the LHD over here in England.


Brotherly, abeg you fit give me the number of the guy wey convert this 407? i go travel latter this year to niaja, i wan arrange one for my trip.

Car Talk / Re: How Useful AreCar Navigation Systems On Nigerian Roads? by cmax16: 4:59am On Dec 31, 2012
@labiyemmy:
We announce the release of our August 2010 Nigerian maps for Garmin GPS devices, for symbian mobile phones, for windows Mobile operated units, for Chinese made GPS and many more.

These are not hacked maps as are being peddled about on NairaLand and in China- these maps are the best you can come about in the country and in Ghana as we speak.

Unique features of these maps are:

Each points of interest on our map now includes the address and the phone number where appropriate - example- if you want to go to XYZ hospital - immediately you search for the hospital and finds it, you will see the address and the phone number- in case of emergency, you can then call them up and get them on alert pending your arrival.

We now have the GPS route you to specific house numbers instead of the intersections of streets hitherto-
(House numberings available for Lagos and Abuja)

We now bundled the Nigerian map with Ghana maps as well as the interconnecting routes. Plans are under way to have Togo and Benin street maps as well.

Please note that these are copyright Third Dimension Technologies maps- not one hacked map by one jobless man.

For more information -

email: alabiyemmy@3dtechnologies.org
info@3dtechnologies.org

+234 805 579 4269
+234 703 694 9019.

Almost 250 cities covered to street level and more coming.
