scarplanet:
Don't discourage the op or try to paint the Nigeria used car in a negative light..

Have you thought of the possibility that the seller might just be in dire need of urgent cash to settle some bills?

Op you should[b] take a trusted mechanic[/b] to inspect the car... it possible that the car is in perfect condition; and better still, you can get it at a bargain price.
Good advise!

It depends on the brand of car..if it's a toyota, it won't last the night grin
Car TalkRe: Dodge Challenger RT Vs Ford Mustang GT! Which Would You Take? by ivoryhouse(m): 10:54pm On Nov 19, 2017
Well, if the ford was a 1969 Ford mustang GT shelby 500 CJ, i would not even glance in the direction of the challenger but it's not. The Challenger RT is a 5.7L v8 and i still would not take a second glance at this particular challenger. Bring a 6.4l Challenger 392 and the Mustang GT would not dare stand beside it. American muscle car without the 6.4l or higher, v8 is like a bouncer with no muscle grin

Car TalkRe: What Causes A Windshield To Crack? by ivoryhouse(m): 8:19pm On Nov 04, 2017
Lexusgs430:
It's simple, when the weather is boiling hot and you are going to park your vehicle for long periods, don't fully wind 2 windows fully up (creating room for cross ventilation + heat escape channels)......
This may depend on the volume of air in the car. For a large SUV it may not have that kind of effect. Also remember that cars with deep tint don't get as hot as cars without tint. Some car manufacturers double their glass while some don't. There are quite a number of variables and my advise would be for each person to research on the weakness of his car so he'd know how best to attend to it.
For fixing already cracked windshields, there a few quality service companies that will fix it in Lagos. If you're a DIYer, you could buy a kit off ebay.com or amazon.com and get the crack fixed.
Goodluck

You could make this more attractive by giving a backround of who you are. Do you own a car dealership? Do you sell Nigerian used cars?
Why should anyone take you serious when you haven't provided any information? Phone number alone does't cut it

Car TalkRe: Liberty Jeep by ivoryhouse(m): 11:17pm On Oct 27, 2017
HopeRisingmatte:
Dear experts,
I drive a Liberty Jeep 06 model. I observed it guzzles so much fuel, some once said to own a Liberty Jeep u must have a Liberty reserve.
Pls is this the experience of everyone who owns it?
Are Liberty jeeps really guzzlers?
Can anything be done to make it more fuel efficient ?
My mechanic says the exhaust catalyst has been stolen that's why. Says it'll cost me 80k to replace. Pls any advice on what to do? Below are pics of the car.
Pls assist a desperate brother as I am at my wits end and thinking of selling of the car.
Something is definitely wrong with your jeep. When was the last time you changed your plugs, and air filter?
Car TalkRe: Do I Need To Program This Module? by ivoryhouse(op): 5:34am On Oct 27, 2017
I'll try and get the codes when I get back to the car, I'm out of town at the moment. I got the part on ebay and it was removed from a good transmission.
Car TalkRe: Do I Need To Program This Module? by ivoryhouse(op): 7:37pm On Oct 26, 2017
Yes to all your questions, its the exact fit. We ran diagnosis and its the module.the module is for transmission
Car TalkDo I Need To Program This Module? by ivoryhouse(op): 1:57am On Oct 26, 2017
Hello guys, i got this module for my 2006 jeep commander transmission. I thought it would be plug-and-play (the ebay seller did mention i need to program it). Well, i installed it in the car but there's no improvement in the shifting as the transmission still goes into limp mode and only the first two gears work and the car won't go above 45mph.
Is there anyone here who can program it for me? Please send me whatsapp on this number 09099642894.
The vehicle is located in Lagos

Car TalkRe: How Good Is Oven Baked Painting by ivoryhouse(m): 8:23am On Aug 08, 2017
The issue is not the equipment ('oven'), its the quality of paint and the process. Our technicians are ill-equipped and impatient to strip a car to Bare metal and we don't have the quality paint required anyway. Your best is to restore your paint by applying clay bar,waxing and buffing(in whichever sequence). Soap remove wax unless its the right soap for cars which actually restore wax(I doubt you'll find that in our Nigerian market). Washing with water is not a bad idea.

These cars are expensive.check ebay.com , Copart.com and other websites before committing your money.
Car TalkRe: Have You Ever Bought A Flood Title Vehicle by ivoryhouse(m): 5:45pm On Aug 03, 2017
Make sure it runs and drives and be ready to spend a ton of money,especially if it doesn't run and drive. I advise you buy salvage that was In a crash. Whichever type you go for,make sure it runs and drives. Goodluck

Car TalkRe: Lagos State To Increase Cost Of Road Worthiness by ivoryhouse(m): 7:20am On Jul 20, 2017
sooperrescue:
I don't understand what the noise is all about. The government want you to take your car to the center for physical inspection where lives and property will be secured. The center will accommodate the Insurance platform where you can get genuine insurance at the press of the button. The center also allows you to obtain your tinted permit free of charge, no middleman. You will also get your BCMR Bio metrics Central Motor Registry card that gives you final protection against the loss of your vehicles. The BCMR is the Police response to stem the rising tide of stolen vehicles. All you need to do is to ensure that you get your correct engine number and Vin number and fill the form online together with your tinted permit application. You bring the vehicle to the center for biometrics capture and you will be issued with a smart card that covers the details of your vehicle i.e, vehicle license, Insurance, Roadworthy Cert and the BCMR all in a smartcard. We are too big to take our vehicles to these centers and imagine Gazzuzz going to Oyo to get the manual certificate for 1750. Na rain water he go take go there? The BCMR will eliminate all the paper documents that you carry now. Just the card and anywhere you are stopped for checks, present the card and the Police will through the card get all the information that is needed. Car Reg, your job is at stake right now.
When are the centers opening to the public? 4600 is better than paying 18k just for tinted permit
Car TalkRe: Range Rover Sports Vs Mercedes G Wagon, Which Would You Choose? by ivoryhouse(m): 9:50am On Jul 18, 2017
erico2k2:
you are talking of Nigeria where the vast majority of people use wrong service parts to service thier cars.Check the thread here on repairs and see how people fry thier engines
PS I own a aRange rover sport bought Brand new since 2012.Overheating is not a default rather lack of maintenance on the part of the owner.If you own a Range rover and cant spend N200K to service it you have no Biz owning one.
Very true. Truth is I'm neither a fan of range rovers nor Mercedes Benz. I don't go with popular opinion as i have my personal preferences when it comes to automobiles. I buy a car to enjoy it and i also hope to keep it for a long while and rock it really hard cool
Car TalkRe: Range Rover Sports Vs Mercedes G Wagon, Which Would You Choose? by ivoryhouse(m): 8:36am On Jul 18, 2017

Ok list one quality Issues plz
Visit Edmunds.com . I love land rover products but the only one I dare buy is a defender which ironically is their best product, others have gremlins of all sorts. My friend's LR3 over heated for almost a year,we replaced a lot of parts, Sooperrescue worked on the car yet the problem persisted. You won't se such issues in a Gwagon. People have had to replace parts on their 2016 land rover discovery with parts from the older discovery,reliability has ways been an issue with Range Rovers. I'd buy a gwagon rather than a range rover any day.
Car TalkRe: Range Rover Sports Vs Mercedes G Wagon, Which Would You Choose? by ivoryhouse(m): 12:46am On Jul 18, 2017
Range Rovers have quality issues so I'd go with the Gwagon-AMG 63. I'd really prefer the G65 6x6 grin
