when will Nigerians appreciate peoples efforts? Must you always program your mind to negativity?

Obviously this your statement is born out of hate. Please stop hating the Igbos, the more you hate them, the more they progress.


For your info, just to answer your question. Yes it can compete with any foreign care ever known to mankind in terms of durability and usability.

I have been using IVM Jeeps for about 4yrs now.

I had a terrible day today and i wish to share my experience with you guys.... Sorry no pics buh i will try to make it a lil more concise
I went for a driving job today with a prepared mind and on getting there, the owner said we should go for a test drive and i obliged, Note[i] this man is an Ex immigration Comptroller and a barrister in Nigeria[/i]. So we drove through the ruff roads to link the main road and as we got to the main road we made an exit on the next available U-turn and continue our journey. One of a sudden he told me to enter a grocery store which i had almost passed behind and as at that time i was driving on the fast lane, so i applied pressure on the brake gradually until it made a full stop then i trafficated and watch my side mirror and it was clear so i turn to enter the store and the next thing i heard was a bash behind me, at first it was like a dream but it was very real, it was this rugged Danfo, it destroyed the back light of the car and also dented the trunk but not too much. So i quickly parked on the spot and came down to see the damage and i heard the passengers in the bus shouting on the driver that he wanted to spare their lives driving a bus with bad brakes. After all the arguments and talks the driver started begging and also confessed that his bus has a bad brake and he tried to apply it but it wasn't holding or reducing his speed which unfortunately caused the accident. He was lucky the man was magnanimous enough to had to let go off d case like that but my mind wasn't at rest and i started feeling guilty because we couldn't even proceed the test and for the first time and on my first trial with this man this happened! Too bad the car was a Mercedes benz S-class 2010 model and i googled the price of the back lite and i got about 250k after converting to Naira. That also left me numbed, tho the man ddnt react badly to it cos he knew it wasnt really my fault but he said he's just gonna park the car until he has money to fix the damages because he ddnt have plans for it. Now my job is a t steak and i dont even know if he's still gonna call me again tho he said he will but only God knows, Pls guys what should i do now?

Hi Nlanders,

Please I need your advice on which car to get because my first choice being the Yaris is very scarce and alternatively the Altima is available and very clean. Saw one on OLX. Do you think this is a viable option for a first Car. What other options do you think I could go for in a case where the Yaris is not forth coming. Thanks guys. GAZZUZZ angels09

Just got my car ,Honda babyboy, after all my hustle. I finally said I shud get all the papers only to be told that my driver's licence won't be issued to me until after 26 days. Now I have to wait for that long before I can drive my car. Am so pissed off! At times I feel like taking it out and if they stop me I will pull a F1 on them!

Imagine waking up and still have to goto bustop to board a bus to work cos I can't drive my car. Right now I can't find a way to navigate to my workplace without passing at least 2 checkpoints.

Any advise for me. Who else dey feel my pain?? And what are the possible dangers of driving without a licence

paix:
When I gradually accelerate, the engine fires fine but when I suddenly step on the pedal it puffs before responding. The problem has been on for some time now. I suspect the timing or the fuel supply cos I have checked the plugs. Does anybody have a solution?

@GAZZUZZ i wont mind your offer to scan please let me have your number.

We even scanned the car before purchase , all that came up was the shocks. which i have done.

The gear oil was burnt when we checked ,

i had to go and look for an old trusted mechanic. He seemed to provide a ray of light when he offered a 13 pin gear which he said another customer of his had gotten when he was told he had gear issues and it turned out to be a re wiring problem. So the spare gear was offered to be sold to me at a much lesser price as the owner had given it to them to sell.

so today he is supposed to remove the gear in my car to be sure its the same exact one in the car .

All further advise is welcome.

Thanks

Hello Team,


Please i need your candid opinion and i will appreciate a matured reply as your input will help shape my next line of action and prevent me from any eventuality.

I advertised an 03 Toyota corolla here early this month and got a good deal,thanks to NL and all the gurus and the buyers too.

But my main concern now is that during the period i sold the car the buyer never bother me with change of ownership and when i called him if he needs it,he did not see anything spectacular in collecting such from me.

NOTE:

My major concern is the plate number on the car,the number was allotted to my first car which i bought and used and sold in 2014,a 2000 model sienna mini van and later re-registered same number with my corolla, during same period when i changed the car which i now sold to this new buyer.

Now i have sold the corolla and i myself don't really need the plate number again and will be willing to register my newly acquired car with a new licensed plate number,and the guy that bought the car from me recently came to collect the original papers and only to inform me that he has sold it too few weeks after he bought it from me due to some pressing need he has,and i was uneasy though i maybe wrong but i was thinking,God forbid if anything goes wrong they will trace the car details to me and not him since we do not exchange any transfer of ownership during sales.`am just thinking.

my main question is ;

1. Is there any legal implication for not exchanging change of owner during the sale of the corolla car,or security agent wahala,please if there is what can i possibly do now to be sure in the case of any eventuality am totally exonerated.

2. Would there be any issue now or later in the future as regards selling my corolla together with the plate number,if there is any please what can i do to avert such ?

Please your candid opinion are highly solicited,lawyers and gurus in the house.

Please I need help. I'm a lady and sick and tired of dubious people and mechanics. I recently bought a 07 camry only to notice the steering was light on the drive and stiff in reversing and doing right corners. And the car would go off if I put on the airconditioner at the initial start of the car . The car dealer said was because sensor was missing from the airconditioner unit .

He took the car and on return it seemed to be OK.

Then I was told steering pump needed to be serviced for the wheel issue. This seems to still be pending .

But to my coming here on the way home . The car started reving in a funny way till the car stopped. Summary the gear is bad.

I have not driven this car for 7 days cumulatively. He refuses to accept responsibility as according to him all was working at point of sale

I'm told its a 13 pin gear ..... I've been hearing all sorts of prices and presently on our way to ladipo.


Please what's the best way to handle this ....

Does the well issue spell an accidented car ?

Do I call police to arrest him ?

I'm tired !

It is important to get monikers right OP when mentioning people or they will never get to know they are being mentioned.

GAZZUZZ, Kingreign were not spelt right.

solarisng:
The car won't accellerate as needed and can't even climb simple slopes. It picks up speed after sometime and would be difficult to pick up speed after slowing down. If AC is turned on, car practially crawls. Secondly, fuel consumption has risen to high heavens. Any help pls?

Engine oil drain Every 10000 miles or 12 months whichever comes first. And pack your engine bay with rat poison.

Hello house!
Please l need help on some information.
How best can l maintain a car (tokunbo) that drives for once or twice a week cumulatively 50 minutes?
l don't want to assume that since l don't use it often, l can as well check or service it once in "two years".
What are the things l need to check with the car from to time, and at what intervals?
l will deeply appreciate your expert's advice.

Do you have a better alternative? since this backward Hausa Camel's plan na "wash"

He has monopolised cement cos he tied Ibeto's hands & stopped him from completing his cement factory by the date agreed in the concession contract bah?

Or he is stopping the millions of portfolio biz folks with tank farms from investing in refineries NOW before it becomes too late..

Ugo, relax, Dangote is not the cause of oil price fall that has in turn affected Forex availability for imports

Foolishness is not Opposition!!!.......

“I don’t believe the Federal Government should continue to be bailing out the states, the states have to sit down and plan to cut costs instead of looking for bailout and being lazy.

“They can create jobs and give incentives to people to come and invest, they should assure people that they are not going to be slammed with various taxes which is what some of them do.’’

Dangote added that the current situation of the economy would push people to work harder, to work in terms of diversifying the economy.

hope the lazy govs can read
