Nozino: Nah, that's not true. I personally have refused to buy a car not because I can't afford it but due to the fact that I don't really see the need and besides an average Nigerian driver is mad!!! |

2braithe: If you are a type of guy who moved around a lot, get a car. It's not necessary to be 3.5m & above, 2m will get you a decent car for mobility purposes only. If you don't move around much, forget about car & concentrate on your academics Car is a necessity but you need to examine your movement & income very well before you arrive at conclusion Apart from fuel, car maintenance is not cheap considering the kind of bad road we have across Nigeria 1 Like |

johnjay4u2u: Thank you very much. 1.Actually,I work and earn by myself.I don't dress like yahoo boys and I have this cool gentle look because I am indeed gentle 2.I don't drink to stupor.If I drink, I'll be wise enough not to drive. 3.No I don't show off.I need it for easy mobility. I'm tired of bus conductors shouting "four four per row" in a heated bus filled with people who smell nice and those who don't.I like comfort. 6 Likes |

Too much unnecessary info So you have to tell us you're in a private uni Your level(why not add the course of study name of school) Leaving the country And also the prize of the car(why not add the model and name) You should equally add age so will be ascertain if police will harrass you or not. |

TheOldGods: I already put that into consideration. My mom's friend stays in the state I school.My parents' house is in a far state from where I school.I have to journey home during breaks. Also when I graduate, I'll have unlimited access to it. I do have a source of income. This is why I brought it here for advice. Thank you. |

2braithe:The police part is what I want to respond to; my bro, as long as you're responsible in your appearance, no unnecessary youthful behaviour, and you carry yourself with decorum, then you've gat no problems. One even asked what I do for a living, and I told him I'm a civil servant which I am. Funny enough, I enjoy meeting policemen on the way. I greet them respectfully, hail them at times, then move. I know a lot of them now. Be sincere, be free. 4 Likes 1 Share |

mastermaestro: Many young guys who own a car are termed yahoo boys by police just to extort them.I don't have time to be dragging with them.I no like long talks. Imagine them seeing a personal and a business email on your phone.They will say having two emails means you're a fraudster. |

A car is a necessity. You have to have a pressing need for it and be productive enough to be able to maintain it. Especially in nigeria where the roads are death trap ditches. You may be better leaving your money in a good saving deposit scheme to generate interest in the period that you have to study. |

2braithe: Read is comment again. He gave you the best explanation. Buy a car and register under your mom's name. As long as you are not into fraud then you are good to go. Car is mobility to me . Except you have another reason you wanna get it . 3 years is a long long time 1 Like |

Originalsly: If I have no intention to leave the country yet, I'll buy it straight away. All I'm asking is "is buying a car for just a 3 year duration worth it?". In 2 years time like you said, I'll only have 1 year more in Nigeria and it won't be worth it. 1 Like |
