Yes, u can get a good 2003-2005 naija used Civic for less than 1m.
I guess the one Tojah is selling is good enough then u put in about 100k repairs after buying it.

Transmission oil shouldn't be changed regularly like that provided it's d original one. Atleast ones in 2years.

Less than 100k plus repair? Are we not moving to permanent site? The best original oil I know is Honda dw1 Dru's spec. Ask anyone if using Nigeria Honda Civic, I even dare to mention Dru toks if they have tried using the oil for a year, more of saying 2 years. The most challenging part of it, is you can't even be sure if they are selling the America one or China for you. I am not out rightly saying Civic is bad, I have been using mine for 3 years now, but I know that car is not meant for the faint heart. Ask peeps using it, they will play the tape for you.

Dailyparrot:
This sh*t happened to me sometime last week. The rider asked that I should end the trip so she could take bike to her destination. We were going to Festac.

I stayed in that traffic from 2pm to 6pm. I had to turn off my app because there was no need leaving it on.

Just pray you get out of the traffic soon.

One of the reason I like Indriver and it is very important to check the map before going on any trip, have a great understanding with your rider if it's a one long way before exit. Those people don't pity for drivers when it's time for them to do the needful. Now to island is 2hrs, may end up adding addition 40mins to 1hr, if the price is not right, I'll rather be sleeping in my house. Money not made today, can be made tomorrow.

Glithronix:
Damn! I'm stuck on Apapa-Oshodi express way. The rider wey I carry reach here self requested make I end the trip. Na how to escape from here I dey on now. Make I go balance myself for correct area.

Boss if rain is failing there, park somewhere and let the situation ease. Driving inside the rain is very dangerous, the outcome is not that nice.

Drivers on Indriver can so act like hungry peeps... rain is falling and they can't even take advantage, still struggling for trips.

Pearl1910:
Lolz...I actually meant d price is okay for the condition of the car. And that amount can get you 2 Civics at 800k each.

Boss you keep calling Civic... Do you think you can get a pristine Civic for 800k now? Civic comes with load of headache, if you are not strong? it will break you. Good engine, good A/C, but you see the transmission? Speechless. One need to be rugged and strong hearted to use Civic. I know the whole use Original Honda DW1 that may have gotten up to 20k now, how long does it take to change Honda Civic Atf oil, how long does it take to change that of Toyota Corolla

Inbtw, what year of Civic are we talking about

AgentXxx:
SMH,

I get, it is what it is... he just have to live for it.

Felicity0001:
DM na bros

Flowing with you boss... if you understand

Gentlelife50:
E choke

Check d matter nah even yesterday rider shock me, Just alight from car before I could say jack in don put one leg fire gate. Oga! Wait I never see your alert? My brother already sent it, we don't dupe drivers, slam gate. Shey make I run come down and follow him, my mind skip, Pope no go enter wrong compound with all these weedites. Park in front of the house, till alert dropped.

Glithronix:
Ogami sir, I be Muslim jare.
Wallahi, you're right it's a wrong time the opportunity came in, if I no collect the offer now, I go miss am definitely and me I want to get profile for bolt driver cos e go help. Na why I collect am be that.
I no go jam person.
The boss wey wan rent him car out in this period na chairman, we be newbie.

Nah boss, remove the phrase "wrong time", you are already building excuse in your mind in case. Just give your best shot, here is what I have been clamouring, we learn on this hustle and I can understand the fast might make it a bit complex. Regardless, most drivers don't get to eat till 4 or 6pm, as long as you are driving and everything is going fine, food may be the last thing on your mind.

Gentlelife50:
Na so nau,worst part is all these people that talk about how there's money in the business don't drive or are all part time drivers.
Funny

Nah where I stop to they argue be that. Someone that is yet to take a trip will have experience more than someone that has completed over 3k riders +/-.


If things connect as we plan, am I not supposed to have been conferred with 2 chieftaincy title in my village by now?

Felicity how much is d coro Las Las

Felicity001:
Haha... Sorry brother hope you feel better now... Me as I dey like this so my car park somewhere since last night... My key fell from my hands into a gutter, ignorant me na that didn't know after about 1hour of getting the key out of the gutter I tried starting the car na so brainbox got signal that something is wrong then shortdown the car.

car slept in the road last night and still there till now like this... The rewire I called now is saying something like 30k I just keep am quiet I didn't tall self...

Hit d key on d ground twice and try using it again

Saao:
Hello everyone,
Please im new here and i need your help.
I owned a car 2006 avensis that i want to use for taxify. Did bolt accept it? Secondly, how do i go about it to conclude the registration if they accept it? I have gotten some details except driver's tag which i can get within next week. Please kindly assist

Thank you

Yes, they do. To register? Download driver app, follow the instruction, then take your car for inspection.

Pearl1910:
This is a lady o, she really tried to document these things meticulously...I respect her.

Repairs and Maintainance cost is very normal except for that 400k repairs in September. It must have been as a result of fixing a major damage/accident or changing of engine or gear. It also showed in her earnings cos she made considerably less that month than d months before and after because the car was in d mechanic workshop.
Secondly, her fuel cost is quite high compared to her earnings, so I guess her car is a big car or she does other runs outside her Uber/bolt hussle. Using the recommended cars, the max cost of fuel is 25% of earnings without surge, so fuel cost can't be more than commission.
When u now factor in surge, then u make much more with the same amount of fuel (i.e only 20-15% of earnings goes for fuel).

But overall it checks out well. Kudos to her. Women are really meticulous and good managers.

Pearl1910 abeg help us call godfather10, quesior is waiting for him. Deh rest, you saw a table without any proof, you don deh guess nah your type they remind teacher say e no give una assignment after class. I come in vowulence

xstyle:
Money Still dey this Business, things are hard, not just for bolt drivers but for everyone oh.

You can say that again, the country is messed up for real.

Pearl1910:
Its not everything that u use to joke

Not mocking the man, but his believe. Take sister car with the sole aim to make money and return it aft. I guess that's the picture in lot of peeps mind. Get behind the wheel and voom, money start flowing. Thanks once more papi

I just read Annie's brother story on front page and he need a car to start Uber. Pearl1910 thank you very much for your words of wisdom... Wisdom is set to make 1m in a month like this. We moove

donfortune48:
Legit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Correct Man!

Are you typing from Dubai? Or from Under the Trees on Chevron Drive?

Donfortune48 will not kee me with laugh... but seriously Don, if angel give you grace to judge yourself, will you pick heaven?

Felicity001:
Lol... Brother I no lie ooh d money don finish tey tey? Even if I won jand na Sussex I go enter so that I go chill with the big boys like dru1, mama rad and Baz instead of knacking those Arabian girls kitikata I go carry my woman follow body. I no fit buy origin for 20 Diarams like eyinola abeg

You go carry your woman follow body... Base on say nah Oshodi una deh go abi? Felicity don't make me discharge all the vex I have for Buhari on u oo

BAZ001:
Who is the little girl they are talking about,
You be baby daddy ?
You don’t need money to relocate , just look for a female staff in Canadian embassy and have a chat with her...
Ladies can say no to you

One driver was making 1 million per month just work for 3 more months and make it 6 million.

It is nothing, I was raised to believe all children are mine.

VaselineCrew:
Hahahaha, bruuuuh!

It ain’t easy yo!

Today, I got a request and parked next to this girls gate, she then came out and hissed and condescendingly told me to come and park in front of the gate (5 meters away), then eyed me up and down.

All this and trip never even start oooo, oh my God in heaven! Like as if I was her enemy in her past life.

How am I supposed to now carry that kind person

They say drop your ego, no pride, yen yen yen, but na wa ooo. Remain small rider will ask you to kiss the ring before they enter your car.

I just zoomed off, driver score be damned!!

Uche should come and drive on bolt for one week, he will understand why Peru don dey Para!

After he gets request in chevron traffic on the other side, then turns around after battling traffic and rider cancels, then he will now have to go back to the beginning of the traffic again, chai!

Boss you wake on the wrong side of the bed ni? I am not understanding this sudden peru that is para-in.

Deep within, I really wish I don't get to argue some things again here, to each his own and I think that should be the standard. Do what works for you, but be scary of those that never had down - time on this hustle.

tojahh:
No try am... Who you wan leave Grandma and Little girl for?

Tojahh! Abeg avoid me or I give u the advantage to pick one

BAZ001:

Baz001 hafa? Shay 3m fit carry man enter Canada like this? Naija don tire man

Nifemi2020:
This happened to me at Yaba. My Honda CRV 2008 alternator wasn’t charging the battery and the car later went off. I had to park it at the entrance of an estate opposite the church. I begged the vulcanizer at the entrance of the estate to help me look after the car, but before I could come back he don less the tire hoping I will come to him to pump it. Guess what? I loose the two tires to pump somewhere else.

the vulcanizer they nice, if nah me I'll less the other 2 before you come back and the cycle continue like that unless you loose the four at once.

dapotemi:
The car of course, it will be released after his 3 days training at LASDRI..

The war will be like Iran & Iraq... what has car got to do with insult. They better arrest me, boss! Your guy no try atall.

GeneralZodd:
Baba Naija is truly a 3rd world country

We are really suffering in Nigeria, Try and visit Dubai one day you will understand me well.

Where I dey now,

I don forget say Nepa dey take light, constant electricity. Light never blink for once. 24 hours supply. No noisy generator. Every where cool and quiet.

Good road network, no pothole, no gallop, no traffic. Gbogbo titi lo te (smooth road everywhere) street light every where with camera

Cream chicks and guys every where smelling nice and fresh.


Police and security very tight: No bribe, No harrasment. Even police dey use Bugatti Chiron as their day to day patrol vehicle. Cars wey dem DINO MELEYE dey take oppress us nah em Dubai police dey use protect lives and property.


Their Uber there nah latest cars, very clean and neat. No jalopy cars.


Magnificent and beautiful edifices everywhere, standard shopping malls wey better beat ShopRite hands down.


I was told that the real citizens of Dubai don't work, Government pay them monthly, they are all property owners in the city. They only come out at night to flex.


Omo Nigerians are suffering, with all the natural resources wey we get we never still develope like this


What baffles me most is that all these politicians would go to Dubai and comeback and wont build the same thing they saw here.


I never condemed Bolt/Uber,.don't get it twisted.

Lately it isn't lucrative like the way it use to be.

Things have changed alot

Only those who started when it was good will understand.

The gods when

dapotemi:
Wow, exactly the same thing happen to a co-worker on tuesday..That fourpoint/access bank road, it was a 7 seater shuttle, he parked in front of the office to quickly hail guys, na so lastma show o, we all rushed out, I was particularly vexed because the lastma guy is well known to me, he towed my car at d same spot about 3 month ago and despite all pleas and long leg, we got to sura and I eventually paid 5k (they term it towing vehicle fees), na so I change am for the guy yesterday, I almost got into a physical fight...He left in shame..
Unfortunately, the same co-worker call this morning that lastma arrested him around bonny camp, took him to sura, paid 30k and when he was driving out of sura, he started insulting the lastma guys in their yard, na so them ARREST am again, gave him a ticket to go to LASDRI office, when he got there those ones ask him to pay 5k and that he will be trained for 3 days...Lol
The guy Don Dey beg make we cover up for office for am...

Insult them and they arrest him... sorry o boss, is it the car they arrest this time or the guy himself


Place my app is not working, trip just flash and leave and mostly long pick up. Please what can I do

Cc: Pearls1910, Everyone

komodapson:
Yes, you're right. Reality might dawn on him when he returns to shithole, but it won't erase the memories of how life ought to be (arguably). What GeneralZodd would be seeing in reality now would be synonymous to the pictures of paradise being mirrored by Jehovah's witnesses in front-page of their watchtower magazine.

I remember during my undergraduate days as a katangite, one of my roommate traveled to represent the school in badminton in Botswana, just 2 weeks in Gaborone... He came back and no one rest for a whole session till he graduated. Few sentence from my guy lips, Gaborone must enter....why? He has seen something different from the usual.

Sure, exploration is how we grow. Sometimes I enter some estate and get so mad at myself... like does the people living there have 2 heads. You know one thing about belief and convention? It has a way of tieing one down, some of us may not be able to do what others does to get by.

This remind me of experience in village. Anytime I am around and see how things r going, those building fine houses, I'll be like I need to wake up, I'm not just in Lagos to Jones. A weeks after settling back to Lagos life, eyes focus on survival, bills no let man see plans again

komodapson:
Yeah..Travelling outside the shores of his country has opened new frontiers. His eyes has opened, like when christ healed the blind.
I could remember Ushe, telling them not to go on vacation, not to go on break, blablabla. Telling them all that if they took such decision, who is going to move Lagos.

Just less than 10days ó in Dubai, his eyes don clear. What if God blesses him the more, he travels to Singapore, Paris, Los Angeles....his orientation changes...

That's why you see, when issues are propped up on this forum, Few can only comprehend what is being said, simply because of Hunger&Poverty that has beclouded their reasoning.
Now see the essence of exposure, GeneralZodd don kon dey wine&dine with Arabian girls, they discuss Gold bars, think big...rather than discussion of "gala in the sun" tales of uche
Its sad

you are a very wiked person

GeneralZodd:
. Yesterday I saw some of our Naija boys dey oppress with exotic cars: Lamborghini, Ferrari, Aston Martin... name it.

After seeing all these things to return the wheels just tire me. I am just tired mehn!

Boss no worry, when you return, reality go wake you

MoonlightDrive:
He is a union man.... but God will save us from their clandestine plans....

Why speak so bad about other app's, but go subtly on Lagride. The guy is a greedy bastard... drivers should just ignore him, if Lagos start government give him power, so be it. He keeps hammering on 4 riders, then what's the value of privacy then? It's ok to sell their products, but he shouldn't hide under protecting drivers.

Idris is plane stupid, he's not worthy of a leader

Comrade Idris is dull and not well informed.

GeneralZodd:
Life is good when you have money. Visiting Dubai has changed my perception, I might have to stop running kitikata when I return to Nigeria

Travelling is exposure and education on its own. There are better ways to make money bro. Someone just gave an idea of buying and reselling Dubai gold. It's fast selling commodity with good profit returns, I still dey deliberate on it. Like I said earlier on I came for flexing and business opportunity survey.

As for uber Riders missing me or me missing them, That one nah Opata you u dey yarn

You no go fit run that Arabian chick O! Can you afford to cough out 3,600 Dirhams for a night. That one nah ₦600,000, 4months earning on Bolt with 1.9 surge . E fit wreck somebody.

Ordinary 3,600 Dirhams! Hisss! Tojahh how much is that in sefa? Please help me ask her if she takes transfer



Comrade it's not possible, you can't stop kitikiti, we d*e here... December is just around the corner. All these lazy drivers

Gentlelife50:
You must continue with Uber ooo, remember there are people selling gala under hot sun.

Besides Uber is the easiest way to make money, just be driving AC round Lagos and be making money.

You should be grateful for Uber, there's no job remember.
People have made millions and became millionaires doing this job.
Even BAZOO1 is planning on coming back to Lagos to continue moving Lagos, abroad is not easy because you have nobody there no uncle to assist you.

nah that Bazoo1 mad me pass.... coming back to Lagos Bazoo1 red carpet for u, from International airport reach ikeja under bridge. How many flower girls would you like to see?
