Or he should do Mainland to Island on a Sunday.

Start from Oshodi, pass through Gbagada Express way, link 3MB, pay tollgate, drive all the way to Abraham Adesanya Estate, make a U-turn at that roundabout and head towards Oshodi Again.

At least you're still within the city and can do 120km on Sunday.

Safe trip. grin grin grin


I'd suggest the Lagos Ibadan iff diportivo will go with him ND use his xterra... there should also be a towing rope to handle contingencies.

my own two cents oh....

BRO if ride mess u up for express ehn.... u will understand the true meaning of begging...
u will beg God, beg other drivers, beg passersby, beg grass, beg the ride.... my brother..... u will beg urself at some point...

when u come out u go humble wella....

Fear not. If you trust your mechanic enough to do a good job, please go ahead.

Oga banky3w has offered to drive, Uncle thebigkendo would provide backup support with Honda Accord, Aunty Radu workshop isn't far away within lekki, Oga Gazzuzz can provide remote technical assistant (As in our Nairaland Resident Car Doctor), Oga Nurey can help us tow your car to Aunty Radu workshop if the gear developed any fault on the Island.

If the gear problem start again on the mainland, check Gazzuzz profile for address, just type those numbers and Google map would do the rest. You can request for Oga Dru 03 Civic on Uber to help you tow the car to Gazzuzz workshop.

Either way, you're adequately protected and covered. grin grin grin
So we would all die of carbon monoxide poisoning in the civic while towing abi? Next please?

LOL! !!

Less I forget, I laughed because I was not seeing myself driving the car anylonger upon seeing what CarguideNG digged out about the car, whereas someone was talking about me repairing and still using it. My EOD has 84 score with clean title and it has once been driven from Abuja to Lagos and from Lagos to Abuja like non-stop on AC without breaking down.

I'm here seeing that with 35 score and you expect me to be motivated with repair and the likes not even with what I've faced.

See for yourself in the image below; two accidents for that matter.

I learnt another valuable lesson today. Am also in d market looking for a corrolla 05 to 07. Immediately I was able to raise 1.5 I enter market, I knew my capital is low but am also open to a very clean nig used. The truth is, most of our auto dealers are criminals. The level of dishonest is appalling. One of dem put up 07 corrolla nig used few days ago, car dey osogbo , 5 month used or so, bot frm a reputable NL five month ago. I don't mind goin to oshogbo but I know I might have prob getting a competent mech to check it so I ask him a simple question, who is d reputable NL that sold dis car five month ago. My plan is to do a small background check, mayb ask few questions frm d reputable NL. Mayb check his advert five month ago and so on, If u see d way dis stupid dealer quarrel me, fear grip me. The next is am d owner of d car if u wan buy buy
If not go away. I jus sit down for fence dey look. I felt bad, not for him but for wat dis country will be let say 10 years, I fear for d kids am raising now. Most of nig dealers buy and ship their cars wit jus their computer, internet and money , yet they act so terribly, dem full NL AUTO section.

Good to hear this; don't mind such dealers. Do all necessary checks and confirmations no matter what.

Please! Don't buy any car without having tangible extra money put aside.

Go read Oga Gazzuzz guide on buying a Nigeria Used Car.

If you get it right, you would not only get a good car but you get it at affordable rate.

Also do some due diligence before making payment.

When I want to buy my car, aside the mechanic opinion, I did some due diligence before making payment.

The person that sold the car is the first user, he bought it brand new at Briscoe.

I asked for the ODO meter reading, He gave me and I did some small calculation using his residence and office address to see is the ODO meter reading make any sense.

First physical (mechanic) inspection was done at his office car park and during our communication he told once told me where he reside.

So I help him (sorry myself) calculate distance from his house to office multiply by number of year the car was in use and the ODO meter reading make sense.

Every details matter before and during car purchase. Don't overlook any details even if it's small. Your mechanic wouldn't do everything, you as a buyer also have a role to play.

Once payment is made, any details overlooked during the transaction becomes your liability.

Don't fall victim, be careful, don't rush it, do your due diligence, get a trustworthy and competent mechanic & also trust your GUT feeling before making payment.

If you get it right, your bank account would THANK you for making the right choice.

If you overlooked any details during the transaction, well ask the OP's bank account. cheesy grin grin
