Auto transmission for me was ok... Just dat you may not find such with 4plug engine.

2002/3 to 2006/6 model engine we made in conjunction with ford... They are with timing chain and 5speed auto transmission unlike the 1999 2001 model that came with timing belt and 4 speed transmission.

Driving the higher model 2003-2006 ... U get that ease as the 5th gear gives the engine such ease.

Chai ... I miss my MPV oo embarassed
Thank you Rex....
Seem like I'll opt for the 2002 and above. Thanks again

I have never bought a toks o... I buy Nigeria used the models between 2003 and 2005...
Price varies due to the soundness of engine and body..

Most of my purchases had one or two fixes.. but I don't buy if it has any engine or gear issues...
Major issue I fix is the beam... 35k dem and roughly 5k for workmanship, brake oil etc

If you check my profile you see them all as I also sold dem all..

I use dem for approximately a year and sell off.

I buy Nigeria. Used .. do fixes and use and sell off. I have always made a slight profit in all sales so I don't use dem for long save for the last one I used for two years to avoid Lagos drivers gbas gbos...
Engine has never given me issue neither gear... I rarely use ac. Cos the back windows wind down and that was my essence of getting a MPV over the 2000/2002 sienna

Interestingly one of my buyers is a younger brother to my current landlord wife.... He bought the very first MPV I sold in 2005 and he is still using it till date.

I also make use of dedicated MPV mechanics here in Ikorodu...
MPV is a common transport vehicle from Ikorodu to ijebu ode.. Ikorodu to Epe so dey have the dedicated MPV mechanics here.

For toks ...it could range between 1.5/1.8...

If you have to go for commercial... I will not recommend the 04/05 model.. it is more of curvy and fancy-full In shape... It's is not as sturdy as the lower models
Personally I prefer auto transmission. Is it advisable, considering it's going for transportation?
Again, I heard the 2000 model engine ain't as powerful as the 2002 to 05 models. Is it true?

No... Best it can do is lift the back which is also a plus because that back bumper when fully loaded can touch the floor on bad road and breaks easily... So raising it helps too

Scenario of how the beam breaks.

If u are over loaded and u gallop( like hump bumps) or hit a deep pothole during speed... You can likely have the beam break....
Not it does not break into two at once ... So I might still have the grace to manage till your destination.

I have used one with a broken beam from Osogbo to Ikorodu
Thanks very much brother.
Are u using yours for transportation or private? What is your general assessment and advice to intending buyer?
AutosRe: Would You Advice Me To Buy A Mazda Mpv As My First Car. by jpride(m): 7:34pm On Mar 11, 2020
eRex:
Yes and no..

Yes cos it will lift it up for commercial purposes... MPV is normal soft with spring on the back which gives its smooth shock absorbing mechanism...

The "no" part of it is cos once u increase spring.. it becomes sturdy when u get on bad/ not smooth road. U won't enjoy the shocks especially when the back is empty
I got your point. But will the extra spring help to protect the beam from breaking?
I'm asking cos I'm considering buying this car for commercial use. I've used 2004 Sienna. I don't see any special thing with Sienna. After 8months of use, the engine started smoking and consuming 1litre of oil for every 4hrs drive. I'm thinking of changing d engine and selling it.
I'm seriously considering this MPV since it's cheaper to maintain
AutosRe: Would You Advice Me To Buy A Mazda Mpv As My First Car. by jpride(m): 2:16pm On Mar 11, 2020
eRex:
Yes it is.
*But*

Do not "overload".

The back suspension can only carry as much weight as stated in the manual.

The running suspension (called the beam) is very smooth but once it breaks due to overload, it cannot be repaired ... It used to cost 35k as at when I bought it last..

Now that is the issue .. what is commercial vehicle without load.?
What about adding extra spring? Does that help?
RomanceRe: He Rough Handled Me On My First Visit To His House!!! HELP by jpride(m): 8:38am On Mar 07, 2020
Mimiey:
Hello Nairalanders.

He rough handled me on my first visit to his house, claims to want a serious relationship. Can he really be serious about being serious or he is just a play boy?

So I met this guy about two weeks ago close to my street. He calls but I hardly pick. Eventually, I picked and he asked if he could pick me after work and we hangout. I accepted. He picked me up after work last week Friday. He was quite interesting and funny, he talked freely like he had known me for years but he was really so touchy, I had barely spent 5 minutes in the car and he was already touching my shoulder and even when we were inside the bar, he tried tickling me, at a point, he put his hands close to my waist, I removed it. We both discussed if we had someone we are currently seeing, I am not seeing anyone which is the truth, he said there is an Ex but they just have sex and she has her own relationship. When he was dropping me off, he asked for a close hug, I hugged him and he wanted to pull me closer and kiss. I broke free and got down. He said I am not nice.

Well, we met again on Monday, I took just water intentionally. This time I minded the distance between us. He wanted to see again on Tuesday, I declined. Then at work yesterday, he asked to see after closing. I told him he can come briefly to my work and we can talk a bit in the car and part ways. He said he would like to host me at his house instead, I declined.

Anyway, he came, I got in and he started driving and saying, I will know his house today and besides his phone battery his low. My mood changed immediately and he tried to guilt trip me and said okay should we stop on the road and get a place to charge his phone. I then told him to continue driving to his house. He stopped on the way and got snacks. We got into his house. It was nice and neat.

Then we were watching a movie, he sat down and placed my leg on his, I was cool with this. Then he made moves to kiss and I declined and pulled away. All of a sudden, he started breathing fast, hugged me so tight and kissed me despite I kept pulling away and didn't kiss back. I am weak when it comes to my Bosom, then he got there and gave me the roughest and painful squeezing I have ever experienced. I haven't been with any man in about 7 months now, I am single and It's hard for me to do a little thing as even kissing randomly. So he got me there when he got to my bosom but it took only just few seconds to snap out. He continued panting and begging for me to reciprocate, he is so hard and hasn't felt this way in a while.

I told him I don't want this, he went in frustrated, stamping his feet, I tot he had agreed, only for him to come back naked and saying okay, he has heard no sex and "I don't want to force you", so he asked for a dry hump and wanted me to turn my back. I didn't. He still kept breathing hard, like he wont survive the next minute. Then he started begging for a Mouth Action. I declined and told him I wasn't up for that. I tried pulling, away and getting angry. He became even more aggressive, removed the hands I used to protect my chest and forced his way into my bra. It was a struggle and then back to begging till I made it clear in a thunder voice for him to stop and take me home.

Then he agreed, wore his cloths and kept complaining that I don't know what I have caused and he wont be himself. We left his house and he tried stopping at a Pharmacist and said he needs to get ibuprofen, then he didn't stop again and just continued driving.

This morning, he is apologizing and repeating the things he said when we got to his house that he wants something serious with me and he wants us to start something and want it to work out. He asked to come see me at work today but I declined. With this red flags, is there a possibility that he is truly serious like he said? Or he is just doing the usual lies to get the cookie and go away. He has a nice ride and nice house, I suspect he may have girls around him. My concern isn't all these, I just want to be with a serious man who is in for commitment and not just sex.

He rough handled me on my first visit to his house, can he be sincere about wanting to be serious?
Even after seeing all the warning signs, you still can't let go because of nice house nice ride...
I pity your situation. Besides, u have nothing to offer this guy. You don't know what it takes to build a happy relationship, so grow up first

First of all, are u quite sure Lola is pregnant? Or she's trying to use this to manipulate your pocket? If she actually got pregnant, are u quite sure she hasn't terminated it? If actually she's still pregnant, I'll advice u wait and see the child first before u open up to ur girlfriend.
One thing is for sure. Lola is going to blackmail u if u refuse to take responsibility. So it's advisable u tell ur girl the truth, but let it be after the child is born. Run a parternity test to be sure she's a product of ur d!ck. Then tell ur girl. For now, put every preparation on hold. Infact stop caring too much for now, so that she begin to have a perception of something something bad in the relationship.
By the time u tell her, it won't hurt her much again. U might lose her, u might not.
Focus on your job, cos if u allow this affect ur job and eventually lose it n become broke, hmmmmmm double wahala for dead body

Prince Ned Nwoko Receives Football Legend KANU Nwankwo, Holds Discussion On First Sports University And Malaria Project In Africa

Africa's biggest football icon, soccer Legend and retired Super Eagles player, Kanu Nwankwo has visited Billionaire Businessman, politician and Philanthropist, Hon. Ned Nwoko at his mansion in Abuja yesterday. According to our sources, their discussion was premised on the 2020-2021 proposed "Stars University", Africa's first sport university, which Hon. Ned Nwoko is presently establishing in Delta State, Nigeria.

Hon. Nwoko received the celebrity soccer legend to an amazing and warm reception, during which the duo discussed emphatically on collaborative efforts in enhancing the sports sector and grassroot football talents in Nigeria and Africa. They stressed that with an institution of such specialization, the sport sector in Nigeria and Africa would record impressive improvement.

They also slided into deliberations on the recently flagged off Malaria Eradication Project in Africa. An epoch project of Prince Ned Nwoko Foundation. Kanu Nwankwo assured Hon. Prince Ned Nwoko, the Chairman and founder of Prince Ned Nwoko Foundation of his undaunted commitment and support for the Malaria Project in Africa and especially Nigeria.

Hon. Ned Nwoko had just returned from his Antarctica Expedition to create awareness and garner substantial research findings in collaboration with scientists from across the world on prospective road maps towards malaria eradication in Africa. His foundation is also funding five universities across Africa on researches to discover vaccines for the malaria scourge in Africa.

Also the foundation is presently working with international agencies and government institutions on the environmental sanitation through fumigation as an eminent step required to support eradication of the deadly parasite in Nigeria.

BusinessRe: Keke Business. Advice Please by jpride(m): 10:12pm On Jan 18, 2020
Chigozie105:
U bought for 650k, how much do u put it for hire purchase or do u just give d person keke to be doing account for u.

The better way to do dis keke business buy a new keke and register it by yourself 670k for everything depending on d type of keke because they have d one of 800k then u may give it on purchase for 1.2m for the one of 600k nd d one of 800k goes for 1.6m, then u nd d rider will sign an agreement with ur lawyer then d rider will have someone who will also sign on behalf of him. Then in d agreement u guys will agree on d payment weekly or monthly and duration of him completing the money maybe 1 year or 8 months depending then if he didn't complete d money after d duration or not doing as agreed u can arrest him nd him will pay for damages that's why is very important to have a writen and signed agreement documented and a lawyer to make it official...

This business is helping nd empowering youths who really have future nd want to work because some won't have money to buy keke but u help buy nd give them nd tell them to pay some amount 20k or 22k depending on weekly basis to certain period of time, u are helping him because some areas like Onitsha, Enugu, Awka, and some cities i know keke people make at least 5k a day, if d person work and if he work very smart his going home with nothing less than 10k per day or more. If he compete d money d keke become his own so he will handle it with care
If he did not meet up, u will arrest him? Look at how inhuman u are. Have u rode Keke on hp before? Have u taken time to ask those riders the challenges they come across? How sure are u they make up to 10k?
Sometimes even the law gives room for consideration. Ask a Keke rider.....they all find it difficult to meet up.....
Keke business is entirely messed up because in all the cities I've visited, it seem like the number of Keke outnumbered the passengers....
Do u think there aren't riders that entered d agreement with good intention? Or do u think there's none that want to gain full ownership?
