Why drive to PU when you could have just swiped arrived where you were?

chillex8:
You can't sow bananas and expect to reap watermelon
For 67/km what are they expecting ?

I see more drivers becoming car owners with this new downgrade.

I see .........

ksmart027:
I think so, na to go buy tiny light

Felicity001:
Look for that 2000 Toyota Corolla, very strong car, it's market value doesn't drop.

A church member just sold his for 750k meanwhile he bought at 650k a year and half ago.

peeps4u:
Wow, I said it few days ago that pencil Camry, Honda baby boy and the likes should be the ideal cars for this hustle now, considering the cost of cars, parts, maintenance over the years in comparison the fair over the same period

peeps4u:
Pencil Camry doesn't drop also. It will surely increase in value again now because it will probably be the most chosen options if the car requirement truly drops to 2000

peeps4u:
Ogba is trending on twitter.

Read there is a shootout there. Please stay safe

Police and Okada men, Hausa men as I heard, are fighting. Ikeja, Berger, ogba are the reported crisis zones.

peeps4u:
Unless you're fixated on corolla, there are few options for you
Your 800k or even less can get a good naija used 03-05 civic. You can even luckily get good 06+ civic for same price.

Someone got a good 07 civic for 800k in February.


I don't know your choice though but 800k can get you a good naija used car for this job if you're not looking for corolla

BAZ001:

Some of the most serious potential problems associated with chronic sleep deprivation are high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attack, heart failure or stroke. Other potential problems include obesity, depression, impairment in immunity and lower sex drive. Chronic sleep deprivation can even affect your appearance.

I know naija is hard.

I know you have to hustle to keep your home running.

I know its hard to survive in this country.

I know you're owning someone and the person is on your neck.

But please try and have some rest. Even if its gonna be 1 day off sleep and eat well.

If you die, your car will be sold/given to somebody. Hustle is good but try and rest to prepare for tommorow.

Next week is another holiday for Ramadan I'del.... Plan before that day and have some rest make use of opportunities on that surge days to make some money..

I know that you, you and you reading this will not yield to this advice but think about your loved ones.

Peace

be careful with Honda Civic car out There, I bought one I have to sell it back same month I bought it

ksmart027:
I think he is looking for toyota product, a friend bought naija used 2004 Corolla last week for 1.6m. Prices of cars are high now but I can never buy 2004 car for that amount, never.

peeps4u:
The problem is the car you bought. There are problematic corollas and big daddys as well

141samuel:
How will you know problematic vehicles, cus am about to buy big daddys

prolly I didn't notice. Thanks bro

deedee44:
It still counts even when you don't have any request, it will only reflect after a trip is completed.
Example, if your online hours is 3hrs 14mins, then you stay online without request for 1hr then later get a request and trip lasted 26mins, your online time will update to 4hrs 40mins

BAZ001:
It has already worked, that Kanu is really a goat.
I have 5hrs to go.
I won’t go offline for the next 6hrs, I no wan hear story. Strictly on bolt

kanuisagoat:
One question, have you tried it before? I'm sure the answer is NO.

And you're arguing with people who have tried it numerous times and confirmed it to be working.

The only thing is, most times when you do it, the hours will not reflect immediately. All you need do is to just go on one single trip after you've done it and watch how your online hours will shoot up.

Felicity001:
Let me see if I can help you remotely.

What's the current millage?

Check the custom papers to know the date it first entered 9ja

Check for engine check light if its on (though some electricians usually by-pass it but a good mechanic and those experience can easily tell if truly by-pass)

Check for Oil leakages for both engine and gear box.

Turn on the engine, fire down aggressively and then Check for presence of oil on the exhaust pipe on your finger tip.

You can also try blocking the exhaust pipe with your palm while asking somebody else to fire down for you. A sound engine will only deposits little particles of vapours on your palms without any form of smoke present.

Shaft dislocation is a commons problem with big daddy, so check for cracking noise while making a 90° and 135° turn both left and right.

Pay attention for suspension noise during drive test.

If you're satisfy with the car tell seller you like to do a long drive test on a free road before you buy, this will help you confirm if transmission is in good condition.

Lastly, big daddy is one car I know to have a good AC system. So if the AC doesn't chill under hot Sun and both in traffic just know that the compressor is bad, don't be deceived with the talk of "gas needs topping"

I hope this guild you to properly, otherwise employ the services of one of our own Dmechy or blackbishop here for a professional inspection

How to Know problematic vehicles

Answer: Get a professional to Inspect before buying.

I will just add to what Felicity001 already hinted.

Problematic Vehicles
There are some vehicles that are straight up from hell, and assembled by the devil and his cohorts, there is really nothing you can do to salvage their manufacture errors.

Then there is the class that became bad due to usage, abuse, flooded, or leaden with electrical issues.

The above fall under the class of great vehicles that could turn out bad.

Your choice of vehicle is good, or rather great.

So how do you avoid buying a problematic one.
You are Either buying Nigerian Used, or Foreign Used

Things to Look out for

For Nigerian Used.

1. Abuse.
Abused vehicle turn out to be problematic, as much as possible, avoid them.

Pointers of Abuse.
1. Switch on the ignition, do not start the vehicle.

Is the fan on. If it is,
one abuse out of many: If you can, avoid buying this type.

2. Open the oil cap.
If the sludge build up is obvious and thick enough like butter from fridge. Avoid.

3. This might be hard to come bye, but if you look enough, you will find. Open the radiator cover. Water or Coolant? Coolant, great, water(if you can, avoid). If inside the radiator looks brownish. Avoid

4. Start the vehicle, let it run. Lights on the dash like it is Christmas. Abs, Vsc, check engine, Airbag, everything just full the cluster. Avoid.

5. Open the Bonnet: If you see wires flying around, plenty cut cut, join join, tape tape. Wahala

The kind of problems you dont want to inherit.
1. Accidented vehicles that has compromised structural integrity.

How do you know, not a hard rule.

Look at tyres. Do you have uneven wears.

With a eye view. Does the alignment seem right.

There is nothing wrong in buying a freshly painted nigerian used vehicle. Most times, but often time, the seller is trying to hide something.

And here is the logic, why do you want to spend extra on a paint job for a vehicle you want to sell.

As much as possible, stick with first body.

You can replace engine, transmission, bad interiors. But a vehicle wey don wor. Nna. Avoid.

Avoid vehicles with rust. The problem no dey finish.


Hard rule, if i see a vehicle that is freshly painted, and it is Nigerian used, i wouldn't even assess it twice.

******Smoking Engine.
Check the smoke from the exhaust, blue, black smoke. Avoid.

*******Bad Transmission.
Depending on how much they are offering for the vehicle. Knowing you have a bad transmission or engine puts ahead and bargaining right.

For the transmission: Check the fluid: If it looks fresh. Like they just changed it.

Hard rule! Dont buy.

A diagnosis can also reveal if there is a transmission fault.

To really test a vehicle and be sure it the gear is good. Request for a test drive, fuel enough. Drive from Iyanaba to Ikorodu.

Most transmission shift problems are only noticed when the car is hot, and well driven

For the Engine.
The engine oil. Check the dipstick. If it is fresh, and they just did an oil change.

My hard rule. Suspicion. What are they hiding?

Noise.
Noise on start up, avoid. Continuous tappet valve noise from the top.

Great if engine has not been opened before. Major repair like a gasket change.


The Cars Booth.
The Nigerian vehicles booth reveals a lot about a vehicle and the problem the current owner is battling with.

Transmission fluid cans, brake fluid, replaced fuel pumps, bad alternator belts in the booth are tell tale sign of a problematic vehicle. Fuel jerry cans, coolant ......

Yes. I dont expect the booth to be empty, and squeaky clean. If it is, i know i am dealing with a pro.

Buying from direct owners is the best Bet. There is nothing wrong in buying from a dealer. But direct owners are not sales men. You will have some that are honest enough to tell you why they are selling.

Avoid Stolen Vehicles:
If you are buying from direct owner, ensure name on paper is the same with account you are paying to.

Verify Documents
Easy, like always do, call up my contact. If details dont tally. Run.

Maybe there is need to do a post on what constitute complete papers, if browse car talk enough. You will find enough info.

Do a vin check

Get a professional to Inspect before buying.

Well, if you can follow the above, you are also pro


Note: Whatever is bad in a vehicle can be fixed. Some can cost you your sanity. Theres really no car fault that does not have a fix

PuZZyNegro:
This one na epistle. The person for kukuma go buy brand new car na.

Someone like me that hate dents, I respray my car at the slightest scratch. Last year December, I had to do full body respray. So, you will not advise someone to buy the car because I resprayed it?

My car even after spending two years in Nigeria is still better than most toks due to the maintenance level I've given it.
