Good!!! Good!! Now thats wisdom right there. I laugh when most people come and ask me to get them a 1996 car with less than 50k mileage, after advicing them they move away to go buy from someone else with a lemon/tampered odometer car, after buying they start having problems and start pleading with me to help them re-sell. When i refuse to help resell they say i'm a bad person, how will i help you sell a bad car to an innocent person i ask them? They have no reasonable answer.


The thing about buying a tokunbo or nigerian used car is all about how sound the car is, if it's sound and clean, buy it, else leave it.

J-D, hit me up via email for the volvo s80 talk

Abi, you talk correct and if you decided to go according to them, when there is problem with their car they will start calling you bad names.

I trust you guys to give me sound advice. Let them start rolling in.

hollirigth:
I will not advice anyone to ship cars older than 8yrs through Nigeria port. According to a reliable soruce, minivan is still considered as a car, the only exception to the 8yrs rule are 8seater and above passenger buses. Two of my cars just arrived Lagos from US this week but they are both yr2000. You can just add a little more money and buy a van/car that is less than 8yrs old, this may save you a lot more in the end, otherwise, the only option is to go through cotounu if your vehicle is old. You don't want to learn by experience,
Hope this helps

looks as if you really into the car import stuff, i can help you out if you are interested, ie using the togo port for cars more than 8years and i bring it in for you. my cars uses the road and not a bush and i use day light not nite. let me know if you game, so that i can tell you more about my options.

@Uzoo
you've heard it better not to learn by experience. it is either you get a car/minivan that is not more than 8years or you use other alternatives.

sultaan:
According to word on the street there is no limit on trucks and vans.
The Naija way is not to have a binding guide line on shipping/import policies so that the powers that be can milk both govt and people.

If there is no specific duty for a car, they can charge what the feel, and send remaining scrap to FG.When you get your van to Naija you'll find out if it legal, or you'll have to pay some penalty. The more holes you have in the system more money can be siphoned out.

well said bro, thumbs up

uzoo:
hi,

thanks ,actually its a minivan , and its for business purpose , i'm not quite sure but i heard the strict importation of cars not older than 8 years does not apply to minivans and buses i.e . if you have a nissan quest, toyota siena , ford windstar , plymouth voyager , all kinds of buses and also peopel carrier and they are more than 8 years ols you can still import to nigeria through lagos port and clear normally.
so i don't intend to do the long or illegal route from other borders, but thanks anyway.

i just need to know if this is true and if so how much it would cost to clear a minivan , say from 1995 or 1996. 1997 , 1998,1999 models

well, if you believe you can use the lagos port why not try it. its not that u cant but re you willing to pay more for the clearing, that's the question at hand.

uzoo:
so i don't intend to do the long or illegal route from other borders, but thanks anyway.

who told you that using other port is an illegal route, they pay import duties even when using the road border except you want to use the bush which i dont and i neva will.

well, good luck on your search for prices

why u go buy 1995model and expect it to go thru lagos port, only if you are ready to pay thru ur nose for the clearing.
i can help you if only interested in using togo port and then i will bring it in for you. let me know if you are game so that i can give you the load down.

DatNiggaAk:
j-designs,
why you come hijack my thread dey sell your cars?
you believe car dealers are not ripping people off?
you seem to be a car dealer to me.
meanwhile, when i get to cotonou
i'm going there to have fun,drink beer,chase hornies
smoke some premium weed and buy a car
i'm going with a friend in the customs so i'm driving back
in my car not going on a safari.
get it?

well, first of all i'm not hijacking your thread , am only given advice to those that ask for it.
and also i can see that you are not interested in going to cotonou to get a car but only interested in the cotonou girls that you have heard so much about and looking for a way to have fun with so much sorry to tell.
well, happy driving back but be careful with all those custom guys cos most of them are one man squad if you understand the statement behind it (decode).
well, let me know when you get back so that i can hear your cotonou-capade , and pips can learn more tricks from you.
lets see what you come home with (a car or a babe).
one love

Sorry guys I prefer Tokunbo. Try and offload the pictures if you have any.

why sweat your self out when you can go get it from cotonou or togo better that way or you are hanging yourself out in the sun for a tokunbo 1987 - 1992 model. how many years ago was that. the only tokunbo car you can get over here is if you are talking about a toyota corolla 2000 atleast you can get a dealer because that about 8 years the recommended car years in naija.

takia man wish you good luck with your car search.

obua:
If the car is late model car/big car , it can be a good idea.
If you can do it abroad, better.
95% of mecahnics in Nigeria are quack and their work in Nigeria is shoddy. They don't understand what they are doing. Training is poor and they don't read much
It will still be more expensive to do steering conversion locally because all the tokunbo parts still come from abroad. A japanese guy promised to do for me for $2000, while most guys charge about N400k for the job in Naija

why are you spoiling the naija mechanics or you think all are like the quake you have you PH. how are you sure that the japanese guy can do it. dont believe all expatiate are props, so are learners. By the way how many foreigner read, all they do most of the time is learn on the job

@poster
don't mind him, we have very good guys whose job is mainly conversion of right to left hand at ladipo market Mushin and they will charge you between 150k to 250k depending on your machine.

obua:
A German mistake now wants to become a Naija mistake. God no go gree.
By the way , J-Designs you remind me of the viper himself

wetin bi this now? how will a German Mistake because a Naija mistake, i believe you should know why its called German mistake

and by the why, how did i remind you of viper? i will like to know.

I sat down in my car today actually thinking about cars when a Toyota Camry 2007 model halted beside me in the traffic. mine oh mine, my love.

So my thought goes thus, "what's the 2007 most exclusive sedan car"
is it;
the Toyota Camry 2007 that i love to call Field-marshal because of the design and its magnificent interior.

or
the Mercedes-Benz C230 2007 that you can't beat the feel

or
the Honda Accord 2007 that love to boast of its exterior design saying look at me am stylist

or
the Honda Civic 2007 that is competing with it own make

or
the Toyota Matrix 2007 i don't even know where Toyota got the idea from

or
the Toyota Yaris 2007 that looks like a car ready to run off the road saying try me i wouldn't bite

or
the Volkswagen Passat fsi 2007 that is off the hook

or
the Nissan Maxima 2007 that makes you feel great

well if i continue like this the naming will never end because there are endless list of wonderful and exclusive sedan cars. But as for me, you should know my "2007 most exclusive sedan car" it goes to

TOYOTA CAMRY: the king of all cars, the Field-marshal himself.

its left to you to let us know what your "2007 most exclusive sedan car" is.

Bump!!!

why not try going through togo. thats more better.
need help on how to go about it contact me so that i can give you the full info

DatNiggaAk:
YOUR PRICES ARE HIGH MY BROTHA
but i will get back to you

you can't get that prices on a normal day for full options.
moreover, the price is due to fall this period.
you don't expect a festive season price and at the end of the day you come February to say we have a deal at that price. you know all dealers now are looking for money but they will never tell you so my dealer will only make a deal when am ready.

well waiting for "your getting back"

DatNiggaAk:
BTW 1997 TO 2001
factory a/c
power windows and mirrors
automatic transmission
sun roof(if available)

well, your prices are ready but it is just the knowing price.

2000 model: it's called the prestige, goes for 1.3m
1998 model: goes for 1m

when you are ready the price may surely go down cos we are in a festive period and anytin can happen.

our cars dont pass thru the bush and we move only during the daytime.

let me know what you feel and if interested.

zankey:
Imagine I just started my driving class last week, believe me this will be of great help. nice one.

to be candid, go get a mechanic to teach you Lagos driving. all those one na child's play. believe me, i taught a lady how to drive in 2 weekends and on the monday after she was on her way to 3rd mainland bridge. she said not a bash or insult on the way. that was because a mechanic taught me and i taught her the Lagos driving essentials that i know and was taught.

aime:
my boss says i drive like a bus driver but then i tell him that is the way to survive in Lagos .all the times i was being a good driver, i was a victim of LASTMA.When i served in Abuja, i was amazed that sanity prevailed on the roads there;nearly gave some drivers heart attacks because i was driving like a lagosian.took me a while to become sane .

diyobdw:
Lagos driving ! what more can one say

you know the crazy part is that after awhile u tend to adopt the lunatic driving style.Remember a friend that return home last summer after driving in Lagos for few week - like the saying goes "if a leaf stays too long with soap it will become soapy"- he got back to yankee and got into troubles with traffic offenses.

my advice to Lagos drivers that travels else where

AVOID DRIVING FOR A WHILE SO THAT THE BAD BLOOD WILL BE OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE YOU START DRIVING IN THE NEW PLACE else you become a NUISANCE.
