Car Talk › Re: Negotiating Car Price With A Dealer: Top Tips To Know by greatbrian(m): 7:26am On Nov 26, 2019 |
Nice. But all this research does not work.
Not all used cars are in the same condition. Some are better some are good and some are fair. You won't negotiate a first body Honda the way you will negotiate a recently painted one. I feel the old school way is the best way. Instead of research, take a trusted mechanic that will not rat you. Check the car, let him scan through and check for even simple faults. This will determine the best price to buy the car. And I say and repeat according to my own understanding. 2 cars of the same model and year might sell for different price and it doesn't mean the dealer swindled you or something close. |

Kelvin30286063: Oh okay... Will consider that. Baba use what you have. And catch all the fun the trip have to offer been you. HV been to sokoto and those other places you mentioned. Once you leave south west the roads are okay from obajana - okene- lokoja- abaji- abuja- Kaduna. From Kaduna, if you will harbour I will advise you to go for admiralty suite, command guest house or water resources hotel in mando. (Don't ask y) The only P you will have z between Kaduna to zaria. The roads have so many diversion and a journey of 40mins might be 1hr 30mins. Reduce ur speed here. If possible, branch in zaria. Eneter Zaria city (banzauzau). Visit the emir palace. Its worth the sight seeing and from there you can find your way to anywhere. The roads are good up north except the diversions due to the unending repairs. Just get good tyres, spare tyres, a good jack, and some cash in case. And try as much as possible to have all the fun. I LOVE ROAD TRIPS and m hvin my share December 23- 27 Modified... And about the car type, you will realise the major cars they use in the northerns states are HONDA, GOLF or Peugeot. Before u see one Toyota you for son count 10 honda |

Kelvin30286063: I'm looking to go on a road trip with my wife for some days. When I say a road trip, I don't mean traveling like every other, we just want to travel around some places in Nigeria, know new places and have fun. This is something I've never done before but I'm hoping it goes well. On the car part, I have a stable 2007 Honda Accord Europe spec (doesn't have ball joint issues and it barely develop any fault)
I live in the south west and I'm looking at going to Abuja, then Sokoto then Kaduna then maybe visit some areas in the north-east too.
I don't know if there are people on nairaland that have gone on road trips before. Please share your experience and the pros/cons of taking a road trip in Nigeria. Op it's actually a good one. Am planning one with my friends to bauchi (yankari) then to Adamawa perhaps back to Kaduna. And yes I tried it to calabar last year December with my friends. We drove enroute zaria - kaduna- akure where we slept over in Air defence artillery brigade in akure. The second day we went thru ore towards Benin, delta ( from what I saw, a bridge separated delta and Onitsha). Just a long bridge. From there IMO abia Akwa ibom and directly to NNS victory in Calabar where we enjoyed the festival and we took part in the bikers parade after which we matched to the stadium the last night to stare at bare breast of Calabar carnival women. Next day we went to Christmas village from there To Twin island (where Mary slessor do hide twins does days). After the whole carnival, we still had 2days to play around with prior to resumption so we enroute Back this time we passed a separate route and we found our way to delta from dia down to ore, then ijebu igbo, straight where we entered Ibadan. And from Ibadan we decided to harbour in Adekunle fajuyi cantonment. Next day we visited oke Ogun. We passed through iseyin, One town from there we burst out at Saki, Igboho, igbope, and we enroute Ilorin from there down to jebba, mokwa etc and burst out back in Kaduna state. The car we used was a 2004 highlander. I guess out budget was less than 50k coz we were 5 in numbers and it was worth it. Less I forget, we visited the Palace of Aseyin of iseyin, Okere of saki and we were told Igboho has 4 kings. The town no even reach mando I Kaduna. HV fun with ur travel and if u HV extra time try and visit kajuru castle in Kaduna state. Its worth visiting. |

Romance › Re: I Had Sex With My Fiance's Friend, Please Help! by greatbrian(m): 12:58pm On Nov 24, 2019 |
Lucyliz: Please I am really scared and confused right now. I need serious advice.
It happened when I and my boyfriend broke up due to some misunderstandings, we were not engaged then.
We broke up and didn't contact each other for weeks. Then I traveled to Ogun state at my grandma's place for somethings. I met this guy and we got along well. We go on outings, had fun and eventually had sex. After that it dawned on me and I regret it. I ignored him for some days and later came to my grandma's place to look for me.
We talked and he told me he want us to start a relationship. I declined and told him I have no feelings for him.
After a week I left Ogun state and came back to Lagos.
Afterwards I got back together with my ex and now we are engaged. We haven't picked a wedding date yet but we planned it to be next year.
Fast forward to last Month, my fiance told me he needed to rent an apartment for one of his friends coming to lag to stay permanently. He got the apartment and the guy came to lag.. I didn't get to meet him until after a week... I was in a mall with my fiance and he called him telling him he need to go out since he was bored. He came to the mall and behold it was this same guy I met in Ogun State. I knew I was doomed .... I got really scared and nervous at the same time cuz my bf never mentioned or showed me his pics before...
He was only looking at me without saying anything except to my fiance... I was even scared of leaving their midst cuz I was scared he would tell my fiance....
Later that week he called me with a different line and told me it was him. I ended the call immediately on hearing his name....
I can't tell my fiance what happened btw us or he would never forgive me...
The guy has been calling but am not picking his calls am scared of what he might say...
I told my friend abt it and she asked me to have an agreement with the guy never to tell my fiance but am really scared about everything and confused....
But then I remember have seen his face on my fiance phone before but didn't pay attention cuz he was on lowcut there...
Have been acting funny around my fiance especially when the guy is there and he is starting to suspect something is going on...pls help me...
I can't lose my fiance and I don't want the wedding called off...
Pls kindly advice but I can't tell my fiance cuz he often tells me he can't have a taste of what his friends have tasted...
I can't stop thinking and crying...
Pls help me I beg u all Sounds like nollywood. What's the title of the movie |

I am asking nairalanders to be careful.
You said the OP is not taking it far? You are just so foolish not to have read his thread.
FYI, I am not a clearing agent.
Since you do not see anything wrong with what Adexfem did to the OP, may someone deal with you treacherously as Adexfem dealt with the OP. Amen so shall it be. The guy na ass licker his previous comments shows the kind of person he is. I only fear for the kind of mentality he might pass down to his kids. |
