Okay thanks


Any mechanic can do a PPI & a power train ?

what’s a ppi ?

And what’s a power train ?
Not any mechanic a qualified technician with the required equipment

PPI is prepurchase inspection

Power train is your transmission and other peripherals.

Yes though foreign used starts from 8million plus while naija used 5mplus. Get a good technician to help you check some specimens. You can buy the 4 cylinder for good fuel economy and the engine and gear are solid no issue.
Pls what’s the difference between SUN ROOF & PANORAMIC ROOF?

Sunroof is compact and mostly infront of the vehicle like front side while panoramic can run the whole length of the car roof, more versatile and provides better sky view especially at night also gives vehicle a lovely touch of colour blend on the roof liner side

Someone I know is about to sell his car and wants to remove his plate number instantly. Can the new buyer drive the car to his own place without a plate number?

Proof of purchase and change of ownership letter would be given to the new buyer though.

Kindly advise.

If its within the state yes good but if its interstate, too much wahala because you will explain and settle throughout your journey. Customs may be understanding but police and FRSC won't.

Best thing is to
1. Talk to seller and tell him you will waybill the plate number to him as soon as you reach your destination.

2. Buy the vehicle find a friends house to safely park it in same state and start the immediate processing of your plate which should take 1 to 2weeks.

3. Use car like that and settle those you can and beg others but you go explain taya and police go delay you, you go also call the seller taya grin for him and police to talk, also they will ask for court affidavit and police report for the sale

Goodluck

So it's to either tell the current owner to allow the potential buyer go with the plate number or ask him to be ready to settle police on his way to his own place?

It's the same state deal.
