Lolz...u probably have never met straight forward business men, or u have been buying totalled vehicles that are imported as scrap for parts but then refurbished back in Nigeria.

You just like arguing. Ask any customs officer or clearing agent, they will tell you duty is never fully paid. Why do you think they collect 1k at every checkpoint? Drive that fully paid duty camry to benin and tell the customs officers you don't have anything to give them because you've fully paid that's when you will know how far

Pearl1910:
No Sir.
That's the best price as per my guy.
U can't find this standard of non-accidented 08Camry for anything less than that. Duty fully paid. Verify the Vin so it's not them say them say.

Both cars are around Alausa

It's never fully paid

olusola2bello:
Good evening bosses. Please what's the best way to increase ground clearance of a camry 2005? Change the tyre size or raise the car? Tyre size is 205/60/15

I changed my rims from 15 to 16 and tyres to 215/65. Life has been good since then. Same car

VersatileVee:
what about uk2.net?

To use their promocode you have to register for 2 years £13 so you pay £0.5 for 1st year and £12 for the second. Rubbish

Now Bolt reveals plans to allow drivers to set their OWN fares days after Uber announced 10% price increase.
It is getting interesting in the abroad

Heyyyy:
Hey guys I'm here again,

So I downloaded the Uber app, filled and uploaded some documents and they were all approved except one, I guess I dont k how the exact documents to put there, "vehicle inspection report ".
Also Hackney permit, LASSRA, lagos state driver badge, where can I get all these, and what is the next step for me

You will need to do another road worthiness document and car inspection in Lagos for you to be eligible to drive in Lagos

Barbiturate:
I didn't show off! I only encouraged him. Like I told him, it depends on his work. It flunctuates. I just took average. I have the ones higher. Any day I go below 20k, then I probably left home very late or worked only half day or I just drove home due to my mom and maybe not in the right frame of mind to work. Anytime I work full day(7/8am to 7pm) I earn above 20k gross

Okay boss. Peace

Pearl1910:
Hmmmm...beware of this kind of offers please. This is Lagos. Inasmuch as we suggested u put up with someone and share rent... Do your due diligence before u enter into any house with a stranger. Please please and please. This is a faceless forum.
Come to Lagos first. Start work, do d hotel for few days, in d course of your work u will meet people who also drive and searching for accommodation, or someone will notice your plight and offer u something. Make e no be say na this thread person go come enter one chance then they will say we were all here and we allowed a stranger fall into d hands of evil people.

As in ehn, it's always strangers that will pop up from nowhere when a discussion is going on that involves money. How do they always know? I suspect most of them are regulars here hiding behind different monikers

Barbiturate:
It depends on your hard work and the amount of request you get. Check the bar charts below. The first net is 17k. Remove fuel of 5k. Profit is 12k.
The second net is 22k. Remove fuel of 5k. Profit is 17k. Some people make more. It depends on how you work. I start 7/8am and close 7pm. I rest in the afternoon (say about 2 hours for meal)

Show off . Why show him your highest earnings alone and not the rest where you made way less so he can know it's not everyday you net 22k

Gentlelife50:
Any card trip that's more than 10k automatically enter or be placed under review.
Next time tell to end and request again or better still run am offline.

It's because of drivers that are scamming bolt, they want to make sure that they get the money before they credit the driver

Gentlelife50:
All of them are waiting for ajah trip

You waste several hours and paid parking fee for island trip, after commission and other expenses how much will now be your gain?

Back then when airport was always on 2.0x when planes landed, it was worth it, I don't know about now.
One long trip can give you 8k, set destination back to ikeja and position again. At least 20k gross daily with ease

XGhost:
Just now, at the airport toilet... One bolt driver walked in an was about to pee in the wash hand basin... I had to stop him.
Like What the ACTUAL Bleep HABA


And what is this congregation always about, jabbering about like a swarm of flies

They're waiting for island trip on surge

VaselineCrew:
I’m tired of my car men, vibrations everywhere, Kazeem’s that have bastardized systems, a bad manual ac compressor that is wired directly to my blower motor.

I don’t even know where to start.

Being a lazy driver is not even helping, but even on days I say I’m gonna push the limits in terms of driving hours, my car would be like “hold up bro, what do you think you are trying to do”.

For instance I can’t drive between 1pm and 4pm cause my manual compressor is doing “low pumping” according to Kazeems. So unless I consistency raise the rpms, I don’t get cool air through the vents. So imagine being stuck in lekki epe traffic at 3pm

I was just about to go pay 45k for another manual compressor that would again be wired to the blower motor, rendering my ac button completely and utterly useless, but something is telling me to save up for a follow come compressor new or old, that will be wired to my cars AC amplifier assembly as it should.

Then there is the vibration, oh my goodness. I’m not sure which engine/transmission mount is bad, but men the vibration rattles the whole dash, center console and steering column. As soon as I switch to reverse or drive, it will start doing “gidigbi, gidigbi, gidigbi”. Sometimes while driving I’d have to switch to neutral and then raise the rpm to 1000 to smooth it out before my riders take all the vibration in and start to orgasm.


Which do I fix first, mount or ac? Do I get new parts or used ones with no guarantee? Will all these repairs completely skin out my already anorexic wallet?

I’m so confused

I will advise you to fix the vibrations first before other things start falling apart as a result. You can still manage your weak compressor to hustle morning and evening, and also some rare cold afternoons.
Make sure each little fix is a fix that will last long, this way little by little you will put your car back in pristine condition

jamih:
Transferred 9 domains to uk2 at 0.5 pounds (166 naira)
Check their terms and conditions on the site and their review on trust pilot.

Can one register and transfer out immediately? And what will their transfer fee be after good Friday promo? Thanks

Barbiturate:
When someone tries to twist your words to suit his narrative, just so he "wins an argument/discussion", you need to end it.

*I never said I had 3 cars......I was referring to Mr Bazz
*I never said I was in a Coca-Cola shop.
*I never said I am a big boy(I only called Mr Bazz and my neighbour, big boiz who still drive )

When has it become a crime to look for job? When has it become demeaning to say someone was looking for job?
Everyone of us did at some point and some are still doing so. I am also looking for opportunities. Even with your car and business, if you get a job of salary above 500k, that still gives you time, won't you grab it?

If you are pained becos I said I knew when you were job hunting and when you joined e-hailing hustle, I am sorry. I didn't mean to bring you down. I was trying to put someone right and also in the know.

This is the last I'll drop about this issue.
I rest my case.

Top of the morning to you all!

Good morning. Have a blessed day

IgiveLadiesBj:
What are you doing with 60k monthly for crying out loud? That is 720k/annum....
Money you can make in 1 month driving Uber/Bolt


If you are hardworking you can even make 1 million naira. Just don't join the lazy gangs...

See attached picture of monthly gross

This is wickedness. Why don't you post your own dashboard let him see how much you make monthly, and not some one off earnings you copied from the internet. Who can consistently gross over 900k monthly without perks which are not always available.
N.B after all deductions (fuel, uber commission, moove weekly delivery) what is left will be around 300k from this above average earning

tunlapapa:
I pity the guy as those pushing him won't be there when he enters gutter.

That DTO he's been called for is a death sentence.
There is no way he will find it easy to pay N37k weekly for 4 years using only one platform.

Somebody said he can make his annual salary of 720k in just a month driving bolt, then he backed it up with a one off bolt (when op was talking about moove) screenshot of 900k+ gross dashboard and left.
That is how they mislead people, how did that amount to 720k net. After deducting 25% for fuel, 25% uber commission, that's around 450k left then moove will deduct their own. Las las he will be left with around 300k, that's if he can gross 900k+ doing uber alone.
Who can consistently gross over 900k monthly when there will be months when there will be scarcity of soji and winter months like January and February

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Why are you trying to create a storm out of nothing na?

He's right, and nothing is wrong with what he said

He was driving when I left the uni and was looking for a job on NL

I have worked for 2 years plus, and I have driven and hanged my boot, and he's still driving

What's wrong with that? [/color]

Somebody mistakenly fired you pistol and you replied with bazooka. You're not very nice

sharpk007:
Actually sometimes but very rare cases, driving a car without catalyst in Yankee is like carry bomb up and down( YOU WANT TO KILL)

Probably one of the reasons their atmosphere is cleaner and clearer than our own

Barbiturate:
There was reason for it, you probably didn't read well. I'm not dragging who is old or new. I was trying to put someone right.

Meanwhile the person you mentioned above, I know when he started. In fact I know when he was looking for job on nairaland job/vacancies section......before joining e-hailing hustle

See shot from outside the box

skillip:
Good morning guys, please what could be the reason why my car temperature rises beyond the mid pin level ESPECIALLY when the weather is hot. The fan is ABSOLUTELY working fine. Cc:felicity and co. Thank you.

When last did you open your radiator to check the coolant/water level, it may be low

Vikkoh:
Okay I'm finally back from the 5days ban.
I was banned by the Antispam bot after I dropped the tutorial step by step on this thread. They also removed the post when I mailed a Mod.

I wouldn't risk posting it again.
That aside, if you to learn how to do it, send me a mail or drop your email on a dead thread on my profile so I'd see it.
Thanks.

Felicity0001:
That was the same road they caught me and I paid 22k.

Same road one of us here narrowly escaped from last week too na...

Each time updates like this is shared here let's do our part by calling those we know to give them update so they don't fall prey to these thieves.

Just tell him to settle them and go his way there's nothing anybody can do on this.

Sorry bro

Yeah I've told him to settle them.

Felicity0001:

Comprehensive Insurance or Tracker?

Comprehensive by far

mejai:
@deedee44, remove repeat button joor

Lol. I was actually modifying the post, I didn't know it was keeping the original

adolphus08:
Please show me how.
I already average 12 hrs a day + the occasional 2hrs driving home empty.
I barely meet 100k gross a week.
The request are not frequent even in surge areas.
I can move around in an area with surge for between 45minutes to 1hr 30 minutes before getting a request.
If there is something I am missing or have to learn please let me know.

He's not driving in Nigeria. Ask baz001, pearl1910 and felicity001 felicity0001
