Boss, you kuku know say rental na stepping stone for us wey no get ride. HP makes sense cos one will be the owner at the end of the day, but the interest that's added on HP no be small thing. Though it's understandable say na business the owner/seller want do, but it's too much mehn. I will rather opt for getting a loan to buy my choice of car that and will be paying back monthly. Loan interested can never be as high as HP interest on the same payment duration period (let's say 18 months).
If I see an opportunity for loan like this, na deal.
God no go shame us.
Much respect, boss.

Where u go see loan of at least 2m to buy Tokunbo car?
Then them go tell u say repayment na 200k/month
How much will u keep for yourself after you pay 200k, repair and service car every month?
Think am well o.
Either u drive on rentals and save and buy ur naija used car outright or u do HP jeje and be paying small small, before u know it u don pay finish.

You guys will just be dishing out advise say na everybody be d same thing.

Me I use the recommended oil for my car so why would ask any buyer to use xhp when I haven't used it once b4?

Again, do you believe it's every car that is bought tok that the foreigner use the recommended oil? Abi you think peep think oyinbo self no get poor people in their country?

Guy make una dey take am easy abeg

I meant if u buy a naija used car that d previous owner used XHP, just continue with it.
I know many Nigerians now use synthetic oils for their vehicles, if u r lucky to buy that type of naija used car, that will be great.

About whether oyinbo uses recommended oil or not...see even d 20w50 in America is better than the semi synthetic 5w30 that we r buying in Nigeria d likes of Hardex, Coastal and what have u.
Can u compare any Nigerian Vs American Car. In this 2022, can u compare a 2010 car bought brand new in Nigeria used by a rich Nigerian and a 2010 foreign used car used by the average American?
A car will be used abroad for 15years, 3 owners and it will still look like brand new. Engine will still be dropping water and steam.
But a brand new car bought in Nigeria cannot boast of 10years longevity. Have u asked yourself why?
Let's stop deceiving ourselves if there is no drugs in Aso Rock clinic, is it your engine oil that government will regulate to make sure importers and manufacturers are doing it right?

At some point you still have to pamper and enjoy yourself.

If you had bought the Camry, it's out of the way and you can focus on other things.

I don't subscribe to changing cars every year though. Minimum I'll use a private car is 5 years. I buy cars I like and will enjoy driving for long no matter how much the car costs.

What I mean is, I don't do, I have 1m what car can I buy with 1m. Say I like a 2016 Audi A6, that's what I'm buying no matter how long it takes to raise the money.

And when I buy, I use for a very long time

E no easy for naija, if businesses are moving to get loans would have been easy.
The banks also know that most people that default didn't do so because they want to but because of the way economy be.
If one manages to get the loan what business will he use it to that will move so he won't default?
Uber? That they will block driver's account tomorrow and story enters.

This car of a thing ehn Na wisdom e require.
Anybody wey intend to buy car for this hustle,
Forget pride, ego,
Go ahead and buy a manual car.
You go quick see front.
Since I bought my car the only thing I AV repaired twice is my AC, and it was due to the negligence of the former AC technician.
Also let me not 4get to say you also need luck in buying a good Nigeria used car.
As 4 me, I was lucky.
Car was bought brand-new by first bank,
I bought car at 58k mileage.
Currently car is at 70k mileage.
I service with Mobil xhp.

My advice: if you want to break even in this hustle avoid all this expensive 3million- 4million car.
How can u invest 4million and be getting 25k-30k weekly as a partner,
Are u mad or something (in portables voice).

I I get 3million God knows I will buy three manual cars, tune it up and triple my income.

Why don't you just stick to Bolt?
I intended joining Bolt and Uber together when I started, but Bolt alone no allow me merge - Bolt riders alone are enough except you want to drive Yourself to stupor, cos you need to pity your car and your health, too.
I don't know how goons here merge Uber and bolt and even Indriver together. lipsrsealed

Use bolt alone and target Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday sometimes feel like weekend on Bolt (with surge).
And try going out when there are tomato pastes on your Bolt driver app.
Just stick to one driving app make you no kill yourself, brother.

Turned out a rider made a report, which I have no clue about. They keep asking me to reply them via in-app whereas I can't access such without logging in.

Till now I have no clue about the details of the complaint. I have no issue with any rider as far as I know.
I got a mail from them this morning about investigating the case. Imagine, you first suspended my account without informing me what happened. You are now investigating a case leaving me in the dark.
I can only thank God this is a side hustle and meant to be a stepping stone to something better.

Uber don disturb me tire. I think I will be taking my car for inspection to complete the documentation I began last year.

Hey c'mon bro you know they answers are unlimited... And I can tell you for sure if rather buy that naija use car bought brand new by the Nigeria than buying the America car, you know the answers.

Cost of importation so acquiring it will be way cheaper for me.
The rich man would have maintained wlvery well.

Take for instance, most of those Kia being sold now do you know most of them where bought brand new? Maintained by servicing complaines and was not abused? So the car will still be very sound when the owner decided to sell it off.

The reason most Tok cars are better than our cars here is simply because of their better economy, better road infrastructure, other alternative means of movement, good and strict maintenance regulations like annually motor check with road safety and VIO and health advisory. Most time the white man will trek to shopping malls, church or work just to exercise his body so they don't use their car often like we do here.

So tell my why such a car won't last?
