Ahh me i know fakes abound in the market these days. They fake these oils even from abroad and package them before exporting and It’s easier to distinguish the Nigerian fakes from the foreign ones. This unhealthy practice became rampant circa 4 years ago.

Now me I use the mobil semi synthetic for two oil changes and then use the full synthetic for one oil change. I keep cycling it like that so that the full synthetic can at least clean some crud in the engine once in a while. It helps my pocket and the engine in the long run.

Me I can’t come and kill myself oh grin

I try to stick to full synthetic to avoid stories that touch. I ran my 09 2AZ Camry from when I got it at 78k to 215k on full synthetic and the engine remained pristine and sludge free. The Honda came at 32k genuine miles so it’s full synthetic for me. Engine too cost, I can’t shout

And you trust those Syrians??

I am a newbie to this Honda business but when I was on Toyota, they never disappointed me plus the caliber of equipment in their garage and their technical know how shows they know what they are doing. So yeah, I do trust them.

I have been on NL since 2005 and I know you are one of the top Honda heads on this platform so I’d also take your word for it but where I reside, the fake lubricant business is like crack cocaine in Harlem back in the 70s. Every one is making a killing of it at the detriment of the consumers.

That said, give me a quote for the Honda oil plus filter and waybill to PH so I’ll get from you for my next service.

The cost of genuine 0W20 Ultimate(long life) full synthetic oil is N35,000 for gallon

I saw a lot of this in the market when I was looking around for oils but I didn’t trust the authenticity.

Wow nice. I’ve never tried these total oils before.

But if I had 37k to spend on engine oil I’d have gotten mobil 1 instead so far it’s original. I trust their brand.

My mechanics are Syrians and they categorically advised me to stick to Total oils. According to them, 90% of Mobil and other imported foreign lubricants sold in the Nigerian open market are fake. These guys have been in the business for over two decades here in PH and they have no affiliation whatsoever to Total (at least to the best of my knowledge). Before now, it was Castrol 5W30 for my Toyota back to back for 7 years.

Don’t worry, the car will love you back wink

High end synthetic oil costs around N30k
High grade conventional costs around N15k

Please what specific type of engine oil do you use that costs the N23k you usually spend in buying it?

LOL! I just serviced my '15 Accord with Total Synthetic Future 0W20. The oil alone cost me 37k at Total Service Centre at Slaughter, Port Harcourt.

Manchester United have had their contract offer accepted by Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane.

The France international is eager to leave the Bernabeu for a new challenge this summer with his deal now having less than a year to run.

ABC reports Varane has agreed personal terms with United, with the 2018 World Cup winner poised to pocket £10million a year once the transfer officially goes through.

It's also claimed the player wants everything sorted within the next two weeks so he can link up with manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side for pre-season training.

shadeyinka:

The father is very very correct. In a Christian wedding, wedding is complete only AFTER ALL the wedding rites have been performed.
If there is no other wedding rites after the traditional wedding, the man is allowed to take home his wife. However, if the wedding rites still remain a church ceremony, then the wedding ceremony is NOT complete and the man should wait.

The father is correct!

The situation is different if the couple do not intend to do any church wedding ceremony, then the traditional wedding will be their own FINAL wedding rites.

Hope it makes sense

NO YOU DIDNT MAKE AN IOTA OF SENSE.

IamAtikulate:

Marriage happens when the father WILLINGFULLY hands over the daughter. If you like pay bride price and everything, if the father refuses to hand over the daughter, the marriage doesn't stand.

If the father insists that white wedding is part of the conditions, it is only when the groom meets that we can say there has been a marriage.

White and traditional wedding doesn't matter. There were both made by man.

What matters is the girl's family willing fully handing over the daughter to the man. They can do that without any ceremony or receiving any dime.

So from your analogy, a father can willingly collect dowry and willingly refuse to hand over the bride over conditions best known to him?

Do you see how stupid you sound? Have you ever heard of breach of contract?

I thought traditional wedding is the most important of them?
Once a father has given out his daughter in marriage and blessed the couple, marriage has started.

This brings me to my question is white wedding compulsory?

Not at all. The law only recognizes Customary (Traditional) and Statutory (Registry but erroneously and commonly referred to as court wedding) in Nigeria.

Either one suffices under the law. If you can afford both, fine but evidence of any one is enough and constitutes a valid marriage.

We have 3 types of marriages recognised in Nogeria

1. Traditional

2. Court

3. Church

Each is a valid form of marriage. What the church seeks to achieve is simply a blessing of the union. They cannot claim this wasnt already done at the traditional level or that God wasnt at the traditional marriage

The insistence that until the white wedding a marriage cannot be consummated is baseless and just a culture, rather than validity

YOU ARE WRONG. PLEASE STUDY AND EDUCATE YOURSELF!
Family / Re: Father Of Bride Refuses To Let His Daughter Live With Her Husband by Hugoboi(m): 11:26am On Jan 22, 2021
What the father in law is doing is illegal and unlawful. Nigerian law DOES NOT recognize any such thing as "church wedding". The only recognized marriages under the law in Nigeria are the Customary marriage (otherwise known as traditional marriage) and Statutory marriage (other wise known as the registry marriage or marriage under the Marriage Act)

Church wedding is regarded as mere marriage "celebration" and has no legal backing in law or fact.

DONT TRY IT UNLESS YOU ARE USING A DOLLAR MASTERCARD.

You are a business man and this is the answer you come up with? Good business practice demands that you provide an accurate breakdown including the monies for greasing the Custom officials and your own fees for transparency sake. Dropping big figures like this without stating how your arrived at it doesnt show transparency and seriousness and I wont trust you with my money till I'm sure how you arrived at that figure.

I have read this thread from top to bottom and you have given different prices for these same vehicles at different times. How will I pay 950k for a salvage 2010 Es350 that cost 3k dollars? I know as a fact that calculation of duty is based on purchase price and not year of production abd i also know as a fact that 35% levy does NOT apply to salvage cars. How them did you arrive at that figure? Please provide a breakdown.

Mr "I too know' Don't come here and exhibit your stupidity. I didn't hold a gun to anybody's head to buy, a customer that knows the worth of what he wants and taste for perfection would see it's worth and I'm sure your desperation to showcase your madness didn't make you notice it's negotiable.

I might not agree with the name calling but the truth is that your stated price is wildly unrealistic. NOBODY will pay that much for this car. Not when you can get same car for between 2.5 to 3.2 mil.

Even a clean title certified pre-owned with less than 100k miles will never go for that price.

That said, your price is your prerogative. Happy sales.
