EOD na guzzler oh.

Many car dealers are greedy hence very dishonest.

You will see many of them on Nairaland using phrases like ‘barely driven’, ‘owner’s second car’,
‘everything intact’.

Thereby pricing Naija used cars in the range of Tokunbo, some will rub the car with pomade and wear condoms on the seat to advertise their dead cars.

wifeesnatcher:

Nazgul:
I don't know any dealer in apapa personally. I went with a friend who is a parts dealer in Surulere and we didn't go to just one dealer. We move around looking for the best deal.

The place is big and there are large warehouses there where dealers offload their cars from the ship. So you'll have dozens to choose from.

Just go with a trusted mechanic and have your Vin check website on standby so that you can run the Vin to be sure it isn't an accident car.

Nazgul:
It depends on your bargaining power. They can call 2011 muscle 10m for you. It just depends on how you price it with them.

I step out of Lagos searching for a reliable camry 2004. I saw many dealers on Jiji and nairaland. I visited each of them with my reliable mechanic.
After checking several cars, we discovered that none of the Nigerian used cars is worth buying .
They always have one problem or the other. The most common is bad engines.

Many dealers even promised to give my mechanic 100k behind my back to convince me to buy this melon car.

I have a clean camry 2005 for sale nigeria used at lagos island awoyaya dm
It's crazy that with 4.5 million, all you can get is a bad car.
We return home disappointed.

On getting home. I went back to check my own car that I have been driving for 5 years. My engine, gear, and ac are still in perfect condition and I wonder if those putting their car on sale are those with major problem.

Nigeria dealers have ruined the used car market.
Is this a problem with toyota or because the car is a lower year.

I didn't consider other brands. Maybe it would have been a different situation.

At the moment, we are considering buying Tokunbo direct or on installment payment in order to evade this madness in the Nigerian used car Market

Godwin4444:
the best way to go here is to buy from a broke yahoo boy or tell your trusted ones u need a car, they will tell someone they know n get a good one for u

All these jiji n online rubbish, I can't even waste my time on it

Tell a yahoo boy u need a car, he will look for broke yahoo boys wanting to sell their car less

Bought a 2017 Lexus Rx350with 58000 miles only to find out the engine block (aluminium part) is broken and they sealed it up with glue.

Also it's an accident car, has lots of sensor light on I didn't check well until I took it home.

Oh well, Nigeria or anywhere else, people rarely sell their cars because they are sick of it and want to get something new, used cars market is where you need a good and trusted mechanic, luck and prayers.
Some sellers will sincerely tell you what the problem is, many others will make God their witness stressing the car is perfect even when it is far from that.
Foreign used? A used car is a used car, cars start to wear the second they're driven off the lot, and like I said, these foreign used cars often have their own issues, we just tend to want to believe it is the jealous neighbour or wicked step mum that has looked at the car with evil eyes lol, or some unskilled mechanic did something.
Many foreign used car sellers have a long list of body work pros, mechanics and rewires 😂 they'll put together or patch up anything to look nice, engine, trans, seats or even dash, etc, I have seen this, that Nigerian used car seller should probably be trusted more than the popular foreign used car dealer.
If you have eyes for details, some of these things can be caught just by looking at, frame of car, nuts on engine and trans, slightly different colours of bumper to body, etc, most of these foreign used cars are accidented☹️, someone bought a Toyota Corolla 2017 accidented, a year after bought Toyota highlander 07 ( also accidented lol) that one even overheated the same weak and was lucky engine didnt go, the week after it was AC compressor, then condenser 😂 and then the battery, the car has the timing chain noise on start up already.
Consider other brands, not so old cars, and maybe start looking at cars bought brand new in Nigeria.
