its the 1990-1993 Honda. Its cheaper and VERY RELIABLE. Most mechanics can fix it cos they are familiar with it. its been around for a while

Joy2Dwise!:
2m is really high. Ok, let me see pics. I'll like to know the milage too.

Rgds.

Not really. Depends on the condition. its a 2002 

Some 01 Camry are going for 1.2-1.5m that not even a jeep

@ Carshopper,

Keep up the hussle. Ur swagger is coming.

Hey Guys,

The advise was asked in Dec. 2007. The car is probably not with the owner or dead by now

Pelican:
Mr man. what type of person are you to describe the pix of the truck we are seeing as being so good with good tyres? You don't appear  to be a sincere person at all. Why do you think you must bring into Nigeria useless old scraps that are of no use, only to rip us off our hard earned money with the headache of providing the coffin for you rubbish. Who told you Nigeria is a dumping ground for your waste. If you want to sell a truck to us, we insist on only neat nothing less than a '90 truck. Please remove the rubbish and stop telling lies. Thanks all the same.

You seem rather harsh to say the least. i spoke with the owner of the truck yesterday and when he asked me of my opinion on the truck, i told him my only concern are the tires. HE DID CHANGED THE TIRES BEFORE SHIPPING! (Bear in mind that the truck is already gone before our discussion yesterday). The pics were taken where he bought the truck and it may have been an omission on his part to take the pics before changing the tires because potential buyers want to see EXACTLY what they are getting.

As per the year of the truck, what matters most is that the functionality of the truck. The truth of the matter is that not all mechanics in Naija can handle new trucks' complexity. This is a truck that might be going cross country. What happens if you break down in a remote area and not modern tool to fix the truck? Or the mechanic is not familiar with it?

After you leave a major city in Naija, all bets are off concerning repairs. We have seen here on Nairaland how many people have got their newer cars ruined from mechanics that are not too updated on new stuff.

As a matter of fact, this truck has A/C. Believe it or not. As long as it running great. The year doesnt matter. Lots of trucks like this are plying American roads everyday as long as they pass a safety inspection. 

If you want a newer 90's truck, then keep it moving! This truck is solid. Not Rust bucket and its got good tires! Potential buyers can examine it themselves.

Sorry to bother you. Let me ask some questions if you don't mind. how much was the shipping for this? From which port? Did they allow anything to be stacked on top? You can email me at: promise72@yahoo.com

Thanks

My experience with BOFA is that i have a direct deposit. i get paid on fridays. i wrote two checks on wednesday evening and the check hit the bank on thursday midnight. the direct deposit also hit on thursday midnight. The bank would not honor the check. I called and they told me that "the funds doesnt get posted until friday midnight"

And i asked "But i could walk into a branch on Friday morning and get money? Answer: "Yes"

O.K Since you see the funds coming in there, its not a check, its a wire xfer whay dont you just honor the checks? No explanation. Couldnt get anywhere with these ppl.

The bad thing was that it was actually 2 checks. The funds in the acct is good to honor the smaller check but not the big one. They posted the bigger check, bounced that. Charge me Non sufficeint check fees ($35). Now the money remaining is not enough for the 2nd check.

You guessed right. The boounced the other check too. and Charge another $35. All this is done while they are looking at my direct deposit coming into the acct.

But they claim that "the funds dont get posted until friday midnight" technically, i dont have $$$ with them.

thanks

You failed to mention if its already in Nigeria.

abdulkadir:
i'm not looking for a particular type but thre's a growing market for it up north here

What i will advise you to do is know the make/model you are looking for. You can begin to inquire from people in your area that are in the biz. Drilling machine have different capacity/capabilities. You cant just get antone and hope to use it. It might not be a correct fit/application for your area or project.

Then you inquire about the model you are looking for based on ur findings. I hope that hepls

I attended Ibadan Poly several moons back. But never been to Osogbo. I will like to know how many (approximately) kilometers is Osogbo from Ibadan? How long does it take to drive? How do i get there from ibadan?

Thanks for your help guys.

Durability wise, i might give top honor to Montero (just judging from its days as winner of Dakar Rally etc). But its not like its too far ahead of a pathy. However, a pathy wins in maintenance, fuel consumption and availability of parts in my opinion.

For my $$$$, pathfinder all the way.

Good luck.

I will like to know if anyone knows the ambient temp in Lagos/Ibadan Metro area. Just on the average i am looking for.

Thanks

hello nairalanders
am oyeniran omotayo ayobami,from ikorodu lagos.please i really need someone thats capable of sponsoring a multi-million naira project.this is how the project goes:

i have this idea of establishing a very powerful radio and television station in the area of ikorodu.but i dont have the power of financing such project.the cost of the project is #400,000,000,00(four hundred million naira only).please anyone who can genuinely sponsor this project or want to collaborate with me should feel free to contact me on the following:

Prince omotayo ayobami oyeniran
08087154272
oyeniran2006@yahoo.com
kayflip4life@gmail.com


Please i will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Even if someone will finance all the total cost of the project. How much experience do u have in the industry? Nobody wants to hand out 400m to somebody with no prior experience in a field. What is the viability of the project?

Nobody is prepared to lose a penny. Not for a novice. Even pros have problem raising funds in their own line of work.

Keep th dream alive. Good luck.

do u clear customs or just to lagos port?

Hardtop or convertible

Carshopper:
oga kunle,yes i knw oo and dats is what is vexing me, i keep wondering why dealers do all this rollbacks&i guess its abt d money sha, dem jus spoil my swagger, am tryin to get d vin for the fx so make my swagger come back, u knw hw i do it now

Nothin do you now. You are making all the effort and due diligence on ur postings. What the importer did to the car in the US is out of your call. At least you know the REAL story on the car so it doesn't make u look bad. Get ur hussle on.

Sometimes i wonder if our ppl want to reconcile with the real truth. A 30k miles Patty fully loaded with a clean history or no rollback will require you to drop some major paper. But most ppl dont wanna hear word 

Ppl call me sometimes and you try to explain but its kinda more productive to argue with a wall compared to talking to this ppl. Change is gonna come.

Optimistic.

big father:
Naija ! Unu to like AWUFU ! HABA.

thats how ppl lose $$$ to wonder banks and such. If its really tru, the car will be gone!

Whats the VIN? Have someone who's interested.

Baba Carshoppa. Which one now? We want to see you with a bigger swagger. This one was rolled back almost 80k miles

At least you know before sh#t hits the fan

drlokobi7:
Pls i'm interested 4 the car,pls Jude can u call this number 08038733817-Lucas, so that we can discuss ok.

are u even reading previous posts?

pdozie:
@Kunle
deekooler machines are single phased. He did told me on phone the size of the blocks but forgot. Will contact him again and feeb back

Ok. I will like to know the sizes. Especially the 500 Block machine

Siena:
Kunle, you appear speachless!  What's wrong?

First of all, the word is speechless 

Just baffled me that someone will roll back 61k miles. How do you explain a 2007 car with only 10k miles. Possible? YES! But not likely. At least not in everyday cases. Unless owned by a really old person who just goes back and forth to the store.

Like i have said before, 61k miles is still very good. Lots of ppl will jump at it especially if the price is good. And the car is clean too.

I would guess its a car of a person that travels a lot on the freeway/expressway. Less wear (even at high miles ) on engine as opposed to city driving. When will this end? Knowing fully well that Monitor 1 will publish the VIN Report 

^^^^^   ^^^^^^^^^^^

Good to know. The last time i checked, the 760 series (replaced the 750 - V12) engine has been offered in the US since 2003. Just in case you need to brush up. i am sending you a link below from MSN Auto. Read to your heart content. We all learn something new everyday.

http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Spec_Glance.aspx?year=2006&make=BMW&model=7-Series&trimid=-1

European cars tend to SOMETIMES be a year ahead in design compared to the US. i.e a new model style can be released in Europe and might not hit the US shores till the following year. This is done in order to get ready for all the US spec and mandated requirement and file all the necessary document with the Dept of Transportation for reviews before a go ahead to import is approved.

Even at US "slow" import standard, that tail light design was phased out after 2005.(2006 was new light design). Which means they wont keep running an old design in Germany and send new one to the US first. That is if this car is actually a 2006 and a German model 

So if you need to know anything about any US spec car and detail, i will be happy to helep u. 

The rear tail light doesn't particularly jive with a 2006 Model.    I hope i am wrong. In that case i will apologize in advance. Nothing personal.

Moreso, there's no 745 series in 2006. Only 750 and 760 were offered here in the US

Monitor_1:
Please note that it is not enough to simply blame "people who bought the car" for rolling back the mileage of this car by as much as 61,000 miles and excuse yourself from culpabilty. Note additionally that odometer rollback is a crime in most countries. 

We do not condone criminal activities under any condition in this section, patrons expect accuracy in the information supplied in advertisements. It behooves you in the future to know the product that you are offering for sale before you do. This is the sensible thing to do. 

You are fully responsible for the information you place on your advertisements.  If this kind of advertisement is repeated by you, I'll have to make a recommendation of very strong sanction against you, to the Admins.

Monitor_1

I am not sure even if this action warrants any sanction from the Admin, You run the risk of ruining your own credibility. Pure and Simple. Everytime you post a car without proper due diligence, if something comes out to be contrary to your claims, all will be here to see.

Then its on you. Your future sale might/will be affected. As far as i am concerned, a 71,000 miles Camry is still a darn great car considering that with proper care it will cruise to 300,000 easily. But rolling back takes a lot more than wish. ITS DELIBRATE AND CALCULATED. All in the name of GREED!

I am not blaming you, but your can't wash your hands clean easy either.

Good luck. Good sale.

KUNLE_A:

I just took another look at the pics you posted. Open them with Microsoft Picture Editor and magnify them [1]. They use propylene glycol (chemical based) [2] It says "THESE MODELS ARE DESIGNED FOR USE WHEN TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY ARE MAINTAINED AT 75 DEGREES AND 55 R.H. RESPECTIVELY. You will find both these legends beside the picture of the "OPTIONAL HARVEST TANK" in the third picture.

You tell me, brother, how you intend to keep Naijas temp at 75 Fahrenheit when average is over 95 Fahrenheit? Do you even know how to read talkless maintain humidity? Here's another indication that some of us are honest and are not looking to fool anyone. The environment and conditions matter!. Please always read the FINE PRINT.

Again, in the 2nd, it says you'll get harvests "UP TO EVERY 12 HOURS". I believe that means you could but again, may not.

I guess I've bored everyone (including myself) enough. I rest my case.

Use indoors. Rather than outdoors.

Ok. Good to know. i was actually thinking of getting one from the US

nuclearboy:
Pdozie openly sent me a file that all of us have access to where a 500 block per 6 - 8 hour machine is advertised. There are also models that do same in 24 hours. My understanding and the laws of physics etc inform that compressors of certain capabilities will overload when there is too much water loaded.

Thats what I referred to.

Please note again: its to protect the integrity of this business and enable you ask informed questions that I write these things. Im not bothered about other people getting work (as long as thier activities do not make me look like a liar/thief/fraudster when I drive past). Sun is big enough to shine on us all.

Please note: Any 3 phase machine in this country has to look towards self generated power as primary source of power. The indice is approx: 6:1 opposed to PHCN. For 1 Naira paid to Nepa, you spend 6 Naira on Diesel. That excludes maintenance costs.

what is your phone number, i can call u now. Not looking to purchase but will kick around some ideas wt u.

@ Pdozie,

What is the size of the blocks the deekooler machine makes? What is the electricity requirements? 1 or 3 phase?

Thanks

nuclearboy:
Pdozie:

As promised, I have sent you mail.

People:

Assume I am not selling machines but remain just a machine user. Ask anything about the biz and I will provide succint answers. Look at KUNLE_A's advertised machines and ask why "oyibo" man is saying the bigger produces 41 6.3 liter blocks (i.e 258.3 liters in 12 hours) rather than 500 in 24 hours (i.e 250 in 12). Truth cant be hidden for long. Condensing units have capabilities.

And we all (90%) use single phase compressors which cant exceed 2 X 3hp compressors

Muchos Gracias! Danke!. Nagode! E seun!

im confused here. which one makes 500 in 24hrs again?

I am not selling the machine. i dont work for the companies either. just sharing info.

Thanks
