Like i said , am okay with whatever I make from it. As long as it Serves my other purposes of buying it. It’s not a do or die situation.

I can buy a car of 15m to do Uber. That depends on what you do. I need car for myself not only for Uber business

Exactly baba.. you can use 2010 Corolla for Uber and still nice enough and presentable for personal use . U don't want to be using a bang up car for both usage.

Happy Easter Everyone
Easter is the commemoration of the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ for our sins for us to have eternal life.
He has risen! Therefore anything dead or dying in your life comes back to life IJN.
Easter isn't about eggs or bunnys or flowers it's about Jeshua, the Cross, victory over death and Salvation.

As we go about our lives, let's not forget the love of God towards us and that we also show unfettered love and kindness to others.

I contacted someone ( A dealer) and he quoted the following prices for a pair of rear shock absorber for Toyota Camry Big Daddy.

Toyota OEM - 250k
Japan - 180k
China - 60k.

Only one rear absorber is faulty, but I have decided to change both absorber to China made.

..honestly won't advice you to...nigerians barely sell their cars unless there is a recurring problem they are tired of fixing...getting a car for that amount that would be suitable for ehailing will be difficult if not impossible...even a tiny light camry sells for 1.6 and it isn't an ideal ehailing car plus it isn't strong enough( something with its time chain)...You might get a car for that amount but keep in place money for new engine, new gear etc....you might end up spending more to put it in place.

Same police stopped me for old series plate number engraved on my car. Requesting for police report and court affidavit.
I showed him a valid allocation of plate number showing the old-new plate number details, previous proof of ownership on the old plate number.
I was even ready to show him the old plate numbers sitting in my trunk, but didn't need to drag with the ignorant fellow.

I just asked him if the Nigerian police issue plate numbers now?

Is it my fault that the Fed govt discontinued the old series plate numbers and lured many of us to pay for new series plate numbers.

Last last, I drove off with a smirk on my face.

Eccentric set of human beings. I really don't like having conversations with them. Just check papers and I leave. The more you explain yourself, the more complicating it sound to them. You just have to roll with their state of mind at that point in time or be stressed.

From what I know, when changing ownership or switching plate number of a sold car to a new car, u need Affidavit to back it up.
Your license plug should know this.
Or better still don't carry any linking documents showing the number was formerly used on another car.

Really!! Hearing this for the first time. My license plug denied it. I will have to do that. Thank you boss.

If the car isn't giving him issues, there'll be no need to dispose it.
Also, the extra confidence that he is using a genuine part.

In the last 4 years I have replaced my front struts 6 times ( 2 Chinese, 4 toks)
They are squeaking already.
