Politely ask the owner for his license or Id card to confirm the authenticity of the the name written on the [b][/b]Original copy of the vehicle documents. Make sure that the certificate of ownership is an original copy and probably. |

Now you don't want a stolen vehicle... But you knew the price was to cheap to be true. No solace for you. If you are caught, no amount of plea will suffice. |

Yawns Now when buying a second hand car d most impt thing after ascertaining dt d car is sound is d identity of d seller. U must get his biodata n he must b d kind of person u can easily show to d police if kasala burst. Dts y ppl in decent employment lik doctors, lecturers, civil servant, banker, teacher, company workers plus registered car dealers r ur best bet bc they can b traced easily to their office n they won't leave their job n run. Generally, interview d seller n u shld tell by his ans if sth is fishy or nt. Dnt b in a haste to seal d deal until u r convinced. If he tries to hurry u n slashes price b careful Once a hustler without identity/occupation/office wants to sell a car on behalf of someone he won't let u see then b careful. Any car document can b forged but knowing d seller saves u d stress of being behind bars n labelled a criminal though ur money is lost |

In addition to Camaro n wisdom's comments.... Take the chassis number n plate number.,. Crosscheck with the FRSC or licencing office... The data must tally...with the owner's names... Date of first reg in Nigeria..and whenever possible pay into the seller's bank account |
