$18500? thats the msrp for a couple of new cars in the US!

If your stereotype is true Op ..I must sadly admit Nigerian girls are terribly shortsighted....Some while back I came across a black merc 200 polished to perfection-if it weren't for the ash indicator lights and the fact i'm in Ghana, I would have mistakened it for denn 's (lol!)

Folks passing by couldn't help but stop and stare at the beauty....I thought, 'here is a guy that attracts so many ladies it actually makes him angry!'

Your mouth is so sweet, you don't even need a car to get your choice woman....how much more with the added comfort of a 1967 Shelby Mustang

Rapmoney:
When last did you see somebody buying any of them?

I just bought a merc 200 and I can tell you that every single lady that has been inside has taken a selfie. Selfies uploaded on BBM and what's app.

What car do you drive?

If you cannot drive what you can afford without having inferiority issues, you need counselling....unfortunately doctor lomomike and elder CityNg are no longer here at cartalk....

I also had a friend that would not put on the AC until when we were close to his girlfriend's pick up spot...and would immediately put it off once the girl departed.....and he starts speaking English like a refurbished slave....those times....

autofreak1:
Just got this ride. Engine and tranny look and work fine, though engine scan shows bad O2 sensors. Engine loses power at some point and SLIP shows on the dash but once I step off the gas, the SLIP warning on the dash goes off and car is tearing down the highway. The interior needs a lot of work, suspension, stabilizer linkages and all not too good too. Looking to restore to an almost brand new state.

You have a wonderful specimen to work with.

I will be keenly following....

Wishing you all the best

Chibzee2:
wow, nice work man,
Please o...hope no body hits you from behind o, your engine is at stake too.
cant wait to see more progress man, good job.

THanks boss

Potty application

Notice the rear tire. It is a 205/75 R 15.

Arches were widened just a little bit during paneling. I hope it fits the front

Also notice the rear bumper hangers have been deleted. There won't be a rear bumper. Anybody who hits me must surely have insurance!!!

tunergy:
This picture was taken in 1986, that was my Mum's VW Beetle.

Memories of the journeys in this car are priceless.

And yes the car survived till 1997.

Outlived a toyota tercel and Mitsubishi Tredia.

Wow

Do you really know the meaning of classic?

Attached below are classic wheels.

I am not old and i drive this.

jeffmyson:
Indeed! Let's tone it down and focus on the task ahead! Whether trance 2 or 3, everyone who meets milestone will be paid " in the fullness of time". The new government " body language " shows we will be paid.

Lol....

My pal, you make me laugh with your 'fullness of time' sermon o....

Now that we have change, I pray our remaining 'change' with youwin is paid asap

The way tempers flare on this forum, I wonder what will happen if we were meeting face to face in a hall....

No wonder legislators with all their millions still fight and throw punches....even jump fences.

Analysis of work to be done:

Priming of exterior shell
Full painting of interior shell
Upholstery. New acrylic seats
Installation of sound system with sub woofer in rear compartment.
New struts-front and rear

Body filled

Symmetric errors noticed and corrected.

More panel beating.

Body filling and sanding. ...

tunergy:
I Think it is safe to assume nobody here has seen a 1982 VOLVO 244GL, That is one car i loved as a boy, the sound was extra ordinary.

The rumour then was that each Rev of the engine guzzles one gallon of fuel and with a volvo 244 you don't need a horn.

My Uncle had one with which we travel to the upcountry states uptil the mid 2000s but sadly about 2 yrs ago the Old boy flipped it to make parking room for a Benz and Honda Accord (sic)

All in all i Love this Car.

Ever Gallant

This is one of the most reliable vehicles to have travelled on Nigerian roads.

Every turkey smuggler worth his onions on seme or idiroko route must have used one in recent times.

It is rumoured that the engine lasts longer than the vehicle (not the same story for our Toyota's these days)

I saw one for sale during my trips to Cotonou that was in pristine condition. Pristine means pristine. The carpeting had no visible dirt mark whatsoever

New stock of kpom sensors just in from japan...'direct tokunbo'....recently installed 2 in Gazzuzz's Nissan Corolla.

Thanks

I attended a communications training last year and I got to know that the average Nigerian can only use about 50 English words.

For example, the English language allows us to describe precipitation with different words- drizzle, shower, mist, fog, downpour etc but to the average Nigerian, its rain.

It becomes worse as some words do not exist in the local language. For example, the Yoruba language has just three colours- pupa (red), funfun( white) and dudu (black). Other colours unfortunately are descriptive...green being 'alawo ewe'. I won't even mention technical jargons like 'oxygen' or car related components like 'transmission'

This puts a limit to how explicit we can describe events.

We all should endeavour to improve our vocabulary skills in order to be able to effectively communicate lest we result to kpom,kpum and kpim descriptions.

Sorry I digressed.

Bodlade:
Denn, how is your water melon test plot doing please.

Harvested since.....



August rain break....

Land is getting expensive.

Who would have imagined an increase of 75% just within a year.

Reports have it that the moment it is confirmed that the wasimi road would be tarred (already promised by the government), each acre would be sold at nothing less than N1m.

The decision to invest now or delay resides with us.

Available

So many kpom solutions already....

Just burnt off today's accumulation of stress with a kpom infused laughter.

Op...please take gazzuzz's offer of a check lest the kpom turns to a kpum

XerXesNG:
Anyone coming to the south anytime soon?

Warri Benin Asaba -ish routes

That route is not for speeds below 120

Nurey and co keep off...

nurey:
rather it's the other way round

OK.

My choice of ifo as the starting point is premised on mk minimising your 'reasons' for losing.

I don't want you to claim sango traffic delayed you.
I don't also want you to claim you got lost on the way
I don't want you to get distracted by the beautiful girls trying to hitch a ride.

Now that your loss options are minimised, the only complaint you can give is car related....

Complaints like your radiator being just 2 cells instead of 3.

nurey:
see this guy ooo, I can BET it you will get beaten like you have always been beaten before. if am opportuned to be heading to Abeokuta I will race you with a new beetle second generation 2.0L inline 4 cylinder engine. I believe your accord should only surpass it with .2 or be on par. But currently trapped in the North so train and be prepared lol

Hnmmmmm.

OK. Let me know when you want to be beaten.

Who made it?

Lagos to Abeokuta via sango otta...

Real trip starts at ifo...to minimise traffic variables
ETA. 30 mins

Vehicle I will use is a mere 1994 Honda accord 4 cyl

A 4 cyl non turbo contestant required.

What does the constitution say as regards ministerial appointment?

Extract of the constitution- section 147
147. MINISTERS OF FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

(1) There shall be such offices of Ministers of the Government of the Federation as may be established by the President.

(2) Any appointment to the office of Minister of the Government of the Federation shall, if the nomination of any person to such office is confirmed by the Senate, be made by the President.

(3) Any appointment under subsection (2) of this section by the President shall be in conformity with the provisions of section 14(3) of the Constitution:-

provided that in giving effect to the provisions aforesaid the President shall appoint at least one Minister from each State, who shall be an indigene of such State .

Despite keyamo's argument that we are not mandated to have 37 ministers simultaneously from different states (fct included) but over the tenure of the president, it must be noted that the constitution requires the president to appoint ministers and ensure the appointment is distributed within all the states of the federation

Good morning

tunezvic:
from your symptoms, it clear indication that your broilers are down with Newcastle disease.. How many weeks are your birds?

5 weeks

What can we do?

A month old...broilers...first attempt.

I need some advice.

The birds are feeding well but I have noticed some kind of sleeping.

Some mortalities have been occurring too...

Droppings look normal.

Gumboro, lasotan vaccinations on schedule. Antibiotics and multivitamins on schedule too.

What could be happening?

Thanks
