MisterKings:
Meaning it uses 2ltrs for how long or how far

that is the displacement of the Engine, that is how you judge the capacity of an Engine, so B4 you buy a car always ask for the Engine capacity in litres.

MisterKings:
I really dont understand the terms you are using. Do you live in Naija? So I can send my details and we sit and discuss abeg

what part dont you understand I will xplain,and NO I dnt live in 9ja

GOing to meet armed men with no armoured vehicle is like going to a gunfight with a stick RIP to the dead.

TOYOTA GROUP OR JAPANESE CAR LOVERS, HOW MARKET?

MisterKings:
1. Ok when it is at the shipping yard. Obviously I need to pay for shipping cost and what else

2. When it arrives the country I then need to clear it from Naija port using an agent

Is this basically what I need done or there is something I missed

1 ,U must have paid at least part of shipping fees B4 it gets to the shipping yard, or if you are not ready to ship due to funds etc it has to be in a private yard/storage, ur agent or relative/friend can be of help if not xtra fee. The shipping agents book parking sport like you would in a supermarket if its RORO. Your BOL(Bill of Laden) gets issued once the ship moves max 1 day,at this point you must have pad 100% of shiping fees B4 the BOL gets handed to you.
2. Well the way I do mine back in the days is this, on the bill of laden there is the name of the vessel, you can track this online and get the ETA it gets to 9ja,, armed with the BOL you shop for the best clearing and trusted agent and hand the BOL to him for immediate action, doing this ensures you car leaves the Port in Lag max 4 days, this way no story.B4 the ship arrives and offload your clearing agent should have done 60% of all paperwork needed. My cars used to leave the port 4 days max, this way no whiff rat story

MisterKings:
How is it measured in how big it is in size when looking at it or there is measurement term used?

it is written on the description like Camry 2.2, this is a 2ltr car

MisterKings:
1. Ok what about just buying without going through auction wahala

2. After buying how does the person ship it down for me and have it delivered to me at my doorstep (if possible)

1 there is a buy it now option, go fru the site and study it well, you need to study it for up to a week or two to understand how it works,
2 you pay hire a tow truck to collect the car from the site to shipping yard.This is easy to arrange.

MisterKings:
Ok but how will I know what kind of engine consumes more fuel. I know nothing about cars

The Engine Size

MisterKings:
Ok so how does one know

Always ask for the Engine or check the details

MisterKings:
Ok thank you bro. So from here I pick a car I like and have someone over there to inspect and pay right?

yes that person has to register if they are the ones paying on ur behalf

car efficiency is regardless of make or brand, it has more to do with the Engine capacity.

MisterKings:
Ok thanks. But what about the website

https://www.iaai.com/search?url=pd6JWbJ9kRzcBdFK3vKeyjpx+85A4wDWncLLWXG+ICNJ+99sqMaoisYKWs6Cr9ehpola9jPx2sprv+s4ZMVn8Fx2zs3B6PW8u8K9FoTQqp6OtBljK65N8yAA4L/oMssFGn/puPC6PYtsQF/gyVP8aA==&crefiners=||quicklinks:i-buy%20fast&keyword=&msrch=true

MisterKings:
Ok then please breakdown the whole process

I already did, or are you talking payment?
well for that you got to register with these auction sites and view their inventory online, but if you are doing this fru a person on ground there they can go and do a physical inspection on cars on-site B4 the commencement of auctions. You will need to deposit I think $200 as bond B4 you are allowed to bid plus you cannot bid on every car as some are restricted to dealers only. However the vast majority of cars on these sites are accident cars,if you need to buy a one on one sale then you need a person on ground there cos such payments are done cash.

Good day All
It’s a pity that this section of Nairaland (property section) is not as its before why?
We are missing some guru here range from
Architects
Builders
Engr’s
QSs
Clients
Suppliers
Etc
Which there wealth of experience in build industry make this section one of the best on Nairaland

Actually I know what make some of them keep quiet this day is just because some are label names which is not that so aspected by them and many more like that.

What we do we see this days mostly is non professional advise which in turn do give some home base bad names bcs for example some who has not visited site ones in his life or know anything about building will be give building quote to non home base person and later a professional give advise or quote the next thing we will see is that the quote is TOO HIGH,
so many thing like that pls is too annoying why because some of you guru has ran away from here.

If all ran away who will make the this section great again pls that is why I will mention some names here to pls come back again and let’s rebuild this Nairaland as a whole

Pls I will like you people to ponder deeply and come back here and make this section great again

Bross we dey, we just dey observe,.Peoploe are not building new houses as it was 4 years ago, but God is good, we will resume!

gbadexy:
I beg to differ sir, the thread could only outlive it's usefulness for those that the knowledge and information contained in it is no longer useful for.
Many intending home owners can gain useful knowledge those that completed theirs benefitted from also So as long as there are people building or some wanting to add to their builds, this thread will always be of great help in seeking for advice and comparison.

Plus these Economic conditions are not helping matter

Honda and ball joint issues

The problem is with Nigerians not the car, there is a specific timeline to replace this.you buy a 15-year-OLD car of which the ball joint should have been changed at 10 years and you xpect different.

DK olukoya wife dated him Wen he had just one kettle and a pot in a room with just one student size bed and no fan.
Today she has a husband who is the G.O of mountain of fire and miracle ministry worldwide.

my mum from a rich home den dated my dad who was poor.... infact my dad family were nobody....my dad who was just a student in Lagos feeding from hand to mouth despite the insult from her families continued till she married him .....now my dad has different houses helps my mum relatives and built a four bedroom house for my grandma who never approved d marriage den cos of his status.

Like mum told my sister......what matters is ur happiness in life cos having a rich man doesn't guarantee that.....if he gonna make u happy for the rest of ur life marry him even if has nothing now once he is not lazy .....he may have more than enuff tomorrow.
what is the essence of living in a mansion well furnished and u feel like a prisoner in it and eventually u gonna leave the house cos u want to be happy.

Them nor dey hear word, and nah people like that dey go marriage from their papa house with two bags.

Ladies saying No, you best check back how your parents lived when they got their firstborn then re-evaluate!. But I'm very sure one can upgrade!

I am now thinking of applying for part time so I can be able to have more time and do what I love- PROGRAMMING.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I don't see anything wrong

MisterKings:
There is paypal, stripe etc na plus I can transfer via wire transfer. We live in 2019

Is IAA a website?

90% of these sites do not transact via paypal
This is where the middle man thrive

MisterKings:
Ok thanks for the response. I dont live abroad and dont have someone close who does. Is there a site I can simply order online and have it shipped to my doorstep in Naija

This would be IAA, but how do you plan to pay?? knowing full well the vast majority of 9ja cards do not work in the US mkt

Kelvin30286063:
I'm interested in this too. I don't want dealers doing what I can do by myself for me anymore.

DO you live in the US?

MisterKings:
I believe this forum is about learning especially this car talk segment of the forum.

I went online and checked a couple of yankee sites and discovered cars are stupidly cheaper than what our dealers here in Naija sell to us. I know custom clearing is involved but I discovered that even at that, the prices are still on the high side. I may be wrong...

But it kept me wondering if this is not something someone can do on his own, if he chooses. Buy and deliver your own car from US or UK without a car dealer.

Can someone please share how to import cars to Nigeria. The step by step process. Thanks in advance

Easy as ABC, all you need is time.
Europe and America have a different system, however, some states in the US operate like Europe i n the sense they let the car go with its plate number.
there are two types of shipping, RORO and container RORO is when the car is driven in and ofcos we all know what container is,
Now in the US where you buy ur car matters as that could raise the cost by 100%, ie you have to truck the car to the nearest port however in the EU you can put one-day insurance and drive it to the port or to your yard and park it off-street.in the US you will have to truck ur car to such,shipping is fixed cost.clearing is another issue alltogether, feel free to ask anything you did not get

Simplyleo:
On point.

MyGeneration:
the only way to stop this insecurity and killing in rivers state, let the government do a program where by, every cultist in rivers state would all line up and denounce it, give them a dead line, after that let a massive man hunt ensue in the state for those who didn't. full blown clamp down, then declare a decree 10years minimum for cultism and its related activities.

seat back and watch

would that not be applicable to the whole of Nigeria?
