Grimaldi has been doing a lot of transloading of recent. These small vessels they don't own usually stops at cotonou. They offload all vehicles there at the mercy of cotonou rats. They wait for their bigger vessels like Grande congo to berth at cotonou and pick up the cars to deliver to Nigeria. Your vehicles will eventually come in with grand guinea. Same thing is happening to lapis arrow
Thank you for this information. But I don't think this is the case with this vessel. Vessel has been anchored in Lagos for a long time, don't know why she has not berth.

I sent a mail to my shipper in US, my shipper then forward my mail to ACL office in US, this was the response I got
"Covid-19 quarantine causing congestion in the port"

I tire!
So, will it take forever to quarantine the ship and its crew?

woodrow:
You have made 2 very good choices .
All the Peugeot I have ever owned have always been manual.from 504 to 405 then to the 306,so I can't say anything about the automatic transmission.I like the fact that you said you want to keep the car for long.its quite impressive.if you get a very good Peugeot car,u definitely would enjoy it for as long as u want.

I have never owned a Honda Accord,but I have read about how it served someone on nairaland who is still attached​ to it till date.let me invite Fogman to narrate his wonderful experience about the Honda Accord.

Whenever you seek advice about a car,try weigh opinion from people who have actually owned,maintained and used the car in question and not from people who just heard about the car from beer parlor talks.
Thank you for the mention. Op, Honda Accord DC is a very sweet car, if you can afford to pamper her and also use oem parts, she will not disappoint you. Mine was used for 4yrs and no major issues because I didn't compromise. Everything I used for her, starting from oil were factory recommended and you can get them at Honda market Ebute Metta .

Also, I didn't patronize Kazeem because it rarely give me issues. Anytime I have concern, I take it to G azzuzz for professional attention . Although I have upgraded, but car is still parked in my compound unused for almost 1yr now, because of emotional attachment. Can't bring myself to sell a car that didn't trouble me?

And Hoegh Singapore has refused to berth for over a month. It is well, let's just hope for May that we will get it out
Painful thing is that vessel is anchored in Lagos for over 1 month. Even if it is Covid-19 issue, is 1 month not enough for isolation?

Yeah you right but how many Naija dealer/seller/user would buy a 2010 vehicle from US dealership; ratio 1:1,000,000 grin.

We all know the reality and it is different from assumption bro.

It is even advisable to buy such year model 2010 from auction accident than buy non-accident dealership which is often high mileage and/or even transmission or engine damaged, if u know you know.
Baba 90% of my vehicles are either from dealership or direct owner and some instances I pay inspectors to go check and give me there 50 point report

Don't even bother to compare auction vehicle to dealership vehicles, auction doesn't give give you the liberty to check and most times when your auction vehicle arrives you are faced sad

Don't even bother to compare auction vehicle to dealership vehicles please. How will you compare light and darkness? Dealership insist you come inspect vehicle and auction you rely on information put out by the auction site. Do you know how many people has bought vehicles from auction and vehicle ended up with more issues than reported, including bad engine and transmission, etc

Mmmhhhh I get your point but I usually laugh whenever I see those ad of 2010 rx350 for #6m thou (I have a unit each of 2012 and 2013 rx350 with mouse, excellent condition for #6m) https://www.nairaland.com/5391599/2012-lexus-rx350-vin-070468#81799728 (Op, sorry for advertising on your thread)

I won't want to go deep into the current situation; I don't want to use another man's thread to do that. grin
I have stated it on another thread previously that tokunbo vehicle does not have uniform price, you sell according to how much you bought. You don't expect a clean title vehicle bought from a dealership to cost same price as accidented auction vehicle

2010 Lexus is rx350 not 330.
Both vehicles are not close price-wise: a 'good' rx350 2010 is more than #4m, while a 'good' 2013 Camry should be around #3.6-3.8m (XLE Abit more though).

Camry easier to maintain. Camry more fuel economical (esp as it is available in 2.5L 4plugs) while all Lexus are 3.5L v6 (2010 rx350 precisely), Toyota parts generally cheaper to purchase than Lexus which is the luxurious version.
A good RX350 2010 is nothing less than N5.5m presently, use to be much more than this. With current situation it should cost over N6m when you factor exchange rate and new custom duty

those Benin guys are heartless. The first check before the bypass. There are 2 checks just before bypass. The first are devils. No matter what you pay, they must extort heavily. I pray they have useless children that will ruin them. Custom is extremely corrupt.
You are very correct, when I saw them extorting from a guy driving Toyota Camry 2001, I knew this guy's are criminals in Custom uniform.

I am really against the relaxing of the lockdown. I was arguing with Carshopper in a similar thread few days back, I told him that our shambolic health care system cannot withstand this pandemic, if it moves to another stage. Obviously there will be multiplier effect with the relax of the lockdown. Disaster is brewing in our hand. May God help us all

As. Regard this , it has nothing to do with Tincan , they might be encountering little problem at the Guinea Gulf coast, we agents are also tired of waiting , I’m suspecting if they might be having problem with either N.P.A or NIMASA base on some fees .
Some claimed it is Covid-19 related issue,.
