First and foremost happy new year . I actually bought my first car from.nairaland and till.date I have no regret ..Thereafter I became a car dealer and I have sold cats to many nairalanders. Generally the experience has been very good . Like do advice people shine your eyes , check people's profile to ascertain when the join this forum . Look at their activities also investigate the profile of those criticising him. Know lf those people are just attacking the seller for fun or they have real reasons . The only reason while some set of people I have black listed as Internet rats attack me is cos the say my cars are expensive ..but I have asked them to provide cheaper ones for us to buy but none has done that till date .I have forgiven all of them.that attacked my advert last year . I pray God give them something meaningful to do this new year .

On the 2million budget you have , kindly let us know the type of car you want and if is Nigeria used or foreign used aka tokunbo. But based on experience it will be difficult to get a sound car of foreign used for this your budget

I wish you happy new year and I.pray you find a good car to start your year. If you ever need my assistant don't hesitate to contact me

Many thanks for this.
I’d like to know, which is preferable? Toyota Highlander 2006 or Toyota RAV4 2008?

teetooraj:
I have enjoyed the service of two cars and both were Nigerian used.

The Toyota Camry 2001 and Corolla 2009 were sourced on Naira land and served me very well and have continued to serve their current owners without any regrets. The exhaust pipe of the cars were clean and usually discharged steam when started in the morning (speaks volume about the engine).

Not all Nigerian used vehicles are worth buying, always ensure you carry out due diligence and go with a knowledgeable Mechanic. Usually, I look out for direct owners with good maintenance history on their cars.

On acquiring such vehicles, I try to maintain good maintenance culture as required by the vehicle. For the corolla, I went as far as servicing with Mobil 1 oil and the car performed greatly during the time of ownership (1 full tank could travel as far as 610km).

So for me, I'm a fan of Nigerian used vehicles as they're cheaper and provide fast access to vehicle ownership. Also, stick with the corolla 9r Camry brands. Though, lately I've been considering Honda's as well especially the civic and accord range.

With an amount of 2m, you'll certainly get a good deal depending on your preferred brand.

Many thanks for this. Very insightful.

If I may ask, why will you advise that one go for either Camry or Corolla. There are other brands, aren’t there?

maiiilooo:
As a potential car owner,lemme sit here and learn

We can learn together.

I am currently contemplating on getting a Naija used car for personal use.

Have you ever bought any Naija used car in this section? How has your experience buying from here been?

What car do you advise I go for if I have a budget of 2m?

Toyota or Honda?

1m.

Are you on WhatsApp?

I'll be resigning in the from my work place to venture into Freelancing full time. Why?

Because my work is so stressful. It's 6:04am and I'm already late for work. I'll be at the work place doing tedious work till 7:30pm. I'll have to be standing till that evening time of the day. It's a one man business and I risk being fired any time. From March to August, I've been able to save 55k. I don't do it drinks. Neither do I smoke or buy expensive things for myself. Well, yes. I don't have a girlfriend. So saving 55k portrays how zealous I am with the savings with the little I earn. Now, I'm facing a health challenge: a back and waist pain. So I want out.

Planning on focusing on the Freelancing route.

My worry now is, am I making the right decision?

I need your advice. What would you do if you were to be me?

To be or not to be?

Interesting decision you’re about to make for your life. You have every right to want to leave your 9 to 5, however, you’ve not got enough savings to leave. N55k is just not enough.

Unless maybe there are some gigs already waiting for you on the outside, then I suppose you are good to go.

Meanwhile, we are currently looking for writers to join our web content team.

Are you interested in this?
Send a DM then and let me get you started.

All the best as you make that huge decision.

Regards.

My scholarship testimony
In the midst of #EndSARS and now #ENDSWAT, I believe many Nigerian youths have what it takes to make this county better if quipped with advanced knowledge in their respective fields.

Let me tell you a bit of my story.

My journey into scholarship hunting began in 2017, immediately after my NYSC. I had my first shot at New Zealand Scholarship for Development.

When I scaled through the first round, I thought it would be a smooth ride until I lost out at the second stage; abstract reasoning.

With a 2:1, I knew my chances of winning a scholarship was not very high, as most opportunities go to first class holders. However, I was determined to give it a shot regardless.

In 2018, I applied for CSC Scholarship in China. With the help of a friend, I got a supervisor, and all was going smoothly until the admission list came out. I was admitted on Type-D which meant I had to pay tution fee and sort all the bills all on my own. It was so heartbreaking, as I was already fantasizing about the beautiful city of Shanghai. �.

What followed were series of rejections, from OKP to Mastercard, Chevening to Commonwealth, IPAD to MEXT (both Japanese), Erasmus to Marshal Papworth, the "Thank you and Sorry," emails kept coming back to back.

At a point, I abandoned my usual email address and created a new one; I felt maybe it had been cursed somehow �.

It got so bad that some of my close folks advised me to consider M.Sc. in Nigeria and forget about studying abroad until Ph.D. level.

However, I have a lot of friends that wouldn't just allow me to give Up. They were always there to provide support.

Last year, around August, I was scrolling past this ISF WhatsApp group when I found info on SI scholarship in Sweden.

That I could apply without writing IELST, TOEFL or GRE made it so appealing. Also, it's open to all classes of grade as they pay little attention to academic brilliance. I studied the material like my life depends on it.

Unfortunately, when the result came out, I missed out on the full scholarship��‍♂️.

The SLU scholarship which covers tuition and medical alone also came out and I was placed on reserve.

On May 27th, I got a mail that they had concluded the selection and unfortunately, no place for me.

That was when I felt our village people were really strong. In my mind, I was done with scholarship application.

However, on June 1st, I was seated just imagining receiving a mail that they have reconsidered me after all.

At that moment, I got a mail notification and opened it. Lo and behold, my imagination turned out to be reality. Out of 6 openings, someone declined his offer and that created an opening for me.

But there is no stipend. No problem! My moment of waiting had, however, fully prepared me to cater for my own needs (It costs $1K/month on average to live comfortably in Sweden). Thanks to my freelancing career and the good people of Premium Freelancing Class (PFC).

Today, I am one of the 6 recipients of SLU scholarship and the only one in my department.

All thanks to God, my family, my friends, and the entire ISF members. Testimonies and lectures from that group are always useful for every application.

If you are like me with countless "Thank you" and "Sorry" emails, I want to encourage you today not to give up. You have gone too far to lose. Your time will come!

Next admission opens by October 16, 2020.

They can't see my body

How are you now? I hope you are enjoying life?

TrippleEEE:
I was quite young then. I was trusted and tired of life. I went to the kictchen. Wrote the short suicide note. Held the knife . Put the tip on my Belle. But I just couldn't do it . I was too weak... I wished there was a way death could come with that much pain... but another voice in me said "there's another way- BECOME SUCCESSFUL!!!."

Wow. This is amazing.

I hope you don't have that feeling anymore?

You are an overcomer.

stevmatt15:

In those days when I was a minor, life became unbearable that I drank methylated spirit, but nothing happened after vomiting form.

WoW!

Hmmmn

Have you ever felt like committing suicide based on depression before?

You'd just draw blank, after sadness has enveloped you for so long.

You'd not be able to think of anything else. Just within your shell, you'd grow cold.

The pressure of the pain, the hurt reaches a high, one that only you can feel. No one else can.

Then...

The thought of suicide filters in, and you'd come to make peace with yourself.
Shebi, death will make all the pain go away.

The peace that that comes with the realization of dying will be overwhelming that nothing else will matter at that point.

That's why it's never easy to pull someone from the throes of suicide.

For those who have won suicide, you are the real MVPs.

How did you deal with it?
How did you help yourself?

Can we learn from you?

Very brave move indeed.

PrimadonnaO:
Anyone can get married at anytime.

The goal isn't marrying. It's about marrying the right person... having a blissful home... and growing old together.

This isn't an ideal way marriage should happen. But may the grace of the Lord be sufficient for them.

Ideal is what you think it should be. But realistically, marriage can happen anywhere, anyhow and anytime.

Amen to your prayers.
