There really is no need for this Peugeot/ Corolla Ding bat fighting.To each person their own.Experience still remains the best teacher.come here and still observe what is being shared and take vital notes but when you hit the road you will see things for what they really are and you can learn your lessons, lick your wounds or even celebrate your victory.I remember being told by Ogunvic not to use a car not working properly for uber but i did strong head and suffered for it for 3 weeks till now that partner owes me 30k and still the car is not okay and it was a peugeot and when light would break and we discovered wrong wiring issues the guy stylishly took his car back but has not paid me for all i spent on his car but i needed that experience becuase it exposed me to a lot and now gave me confidence to get my 407 naija used and seriously abused but thank God ave been able to use it but need to still do some repairs but reading through different forums even here on NL has greatly helped because just as there are lots of negative 406/407 notions just as there are positives same with corolla and kia/elantra so i guess people would learn more from their own personal experiences.

in other news have Uber riders reduced or Dru 23 and FleetXpert have used their cars to take all the riders i was only able to do like 8 trips between 2pm and 11pm but fortunately mostly long trips otherwise eye for red small oo..i did not even have any back to back trip and most times even on the island i stayed for 20mins no ride..enjoy the day ahead people.let it be fruitful for everyone by God's Grace..

jarkbauer:
Ogunvic4 and Romoe3 pls stop trying convince people to buy Peugeot. You've explained yourselves enough for discerning minds to choose.
No need trying to argue with those who prefer corollas.
My manager can never buy Peugeot again on his life.
My wife can never buy a Toyota.
Both based on experience

I think we should bury this debate here.

Jesunferanmi:
Hello Ogunvic, Please help send you T & C to deyemi1800@yahoo.com. Thank you

jarkbauer:
I do not think what I said warrants this

Guy why did you attack me.
Do I know you before.


No problems I can see that you an agbero who is ready to pick fight with anybody. I am not the type who will pick fight with you.

You should keep shouting for people to buy Peugeot or go to any carmart to stop anybody who wants to buy corolla for Uber.

Better still You can tell copart to stop auctioning cars for potential uber partners

If you are not satisfied with these you can go channels TV or you can carry placard announcing to the whole world that Peugeot is better than corollas.

And if people continue to buy corollas for Uber you can hug the transformer around your house or just speed into any army barracks in sight.

Conclusion
You and Ogunvic4 are mannerless and highly narrow minded mofos. I can never buy Peugeot for Uber... come and beat me


Stop shouting on this forum like a madman

suyamasta:
Why are there so many bad reviews especially about Peugeot 407, with regards to reliability?

AngelicBeing:
l have followed this thread for few months now and I am learning daily from everyone especially Ogunvic4 and Romeo3, I am discussing with my business partners in the West to see how l can invest in the business in Nigeria, from what I have read here, l think they are promoting the use of Peugeot 407 based on cheap maintenance, cheap parts, the ruggedness of the Peugeot and also some bit of luxury associated with the brand, Nigeria roads are terrible, I used an American Suv during my visit few years ago, l bought the vehicle myself in North America and shipped it to lagos with other cars, although it was a strong Suv but I know what I spent in changing the shock absorbers and several other wheel associated components due to bad roads, flood during raining season etc, I have not used Peugeot before but I think from what Ogunvic4 and Romero 3 are saying on here, it might be a good brand to use considering the terrible roads we have in Nigeria, l am already tilting towards using the Peugeot fleet once I am ready with my partners and I will meet Romeo 3 and his friend and see how l can do business with them, using a luxury car for Uber in Nigeria is not advisable because our roads are bad, I have seen Latest Suv and even a labroghini been used as a rental car in the Middle East when I visited several times during vacation but I am not surprised because they have fantastic roads unlike what we have in the jungle called Nigeria

claremont:
One striking thing I have observed on here is that Nigeria seems to be the only Uber market where certain people believe that only deadbeat ugly-looking peugeot cars can survive. I have visited Kenya and Uganda several times, and 90% of the cars used over there for uber are decent-looking Toyota corollas. It seems there is such an obsessive push on here for people to dump their decent cars in favour of decaying peugeots on the premise that ''they are the best for Nigerian roads''. I have heard someone 'advice' a car owner to sell his decent looking car in favour of an ugly scrap peugeot. I don't think this is right.

I'm not even comparing Nigeria with other western countries, we are comparing it with fellow African countries. Plus, just because someone has been driving on Uber for a while simply doesn't give that person any sense of entitlement over a newbie. Uber doesn't need any experience, you simply start the app and drive the number of hours you feel obliged to. At the end of the week, you are paid in line with whatever bonus offers are available. The location you need to be is already highlighted on the app itself by its 'boost' feature, there is no rocket science about it.

I have been a silent reader on this page for a while and have been carefully observing the antics of some people, but let me just stop here. I think we should give kudos to Uber for taking a lot of people out of unemployment, these are the same people speaking with a false sense of entitlement just because they have managed to taste a few pennies in Naira. Drivers should consider themselves lucky to be in Nigeria where car owners give them there cars without an initial deposit, in most other countries, you pay a fixed weekly fee UPFRONT to lease the car.

Halfgod:
With the way Partners and fleet managers are looking for only experienced Uber drivers, is there any hope for people like me who want to enter the platform?

I just finished NYSC and I get zeal to work o! Make una help new drivers.

NB: I'm only new to the Uber, not a new driver.

Funny guy o. Naija road never kill the rest now . As a matter of fact. I plan to bring in the parts for all my elantras . I can buy the parts on ebay put it inside the trunk of the car. Disengage the trunk . At the end of the day. It depends how you take care of the car. I will agree that you know more about cars than me. But when it is said and done. O boy na elantra all the way for me. The only issue is the parts are not original in naija or expensive to get . And most parts that come into naija are parts that have been rejected in Yankee or better yet. Parts that will no longer be useful. So imagine buying shocks tokunbo or bushing. Do knw how many miles those things have reach . And people will now say o the suspension is not good those cars are not strong . The shocks of those kia cars can't last Naija road. The bottom line is u can have the strongest cars on the road. Give it to a crazy drivers. He will destroy that car in two weeks. Did you see the condition of the blue elantra that was impounded by lasma. This is after two weeks of him driving it . The car was not like these now when it was release now

slamstanlee:

dru23:
O boy I tire for you. The purpose of security deposit is to reduce the risk. I do inpsection on my cars every two weeks rain or shine. The reason is reduce my car from been wreck. I gave my car out to somone family. We no go mention name here o. Omo two weeks of the guy driving the car, Omo I want cry. So imagine If I didn't do inspection at all and waited for a month. I no go recongnize my car be that. And the driver still own me money that I didn't bother to collect.
At the end of the day. If I do my part as a owner and I made sure the car is in excellent shape. My guy I have the rite for a security deposit o.
And please owners out there listern very well. Do your part by making sure the cars you give out his in excellent shape o. If you don't have the money . Try and raise the money. And for my partners out there especially, that are bringing tokunbo cars for uber. Make sure you collect security deposit o and inspect your cars every two weeks to reduce stories that will touch the heart. Mr Ogunvic41 is always saying we are proffessional drivers . And we daily income earners. We that owners of cars lets us be professional owners too. A word is enough for the wise .

@ogunvic41
@GAZZUZZ PLease where do i physically locate the year of production for a 407? We have searched the sides still not found??

bigass:
NICE but stop bringing everything to this page

GAZZUZZ:
I will NEVER, I repeat NEVER give a driver a car without a minimum collateral of 1week, if he likes bring your property as collateral, I will make you sign an agreement that ensures if you default the property will be liquidated to reslove your issue.

WE pay insurance for cars upfront, service cars upfront, collect loans to even buy the car upfront. Minimum a driver can do is show some good faith and pay upfront, at least from the numbers available hardworking drivers make more money than partners.

colbert2:
Please house is there any remedy or solution if someone is permanetly blocked on UBER?
