Libel as how? Did I disclose name or details of the person that sold the car to me? I was only here to get opinion of
people on what happened solely because the seller was making it look like I was acting ungrateful or so.

Someone came here to say it was fashautos that sold it but I quoted it and made it clear that
he was not the one.

I was also thinking I could have gone for his own because I was having the conviction that it would have
been a better option.

I have taken it to him to totally fix which he suggested replacement for but I backed out of
that since I already initially spent money on its repair.

He should replace it if he wants to and possibly sell it as a Nigerian used car while he
gives me whatever he thinks I deserve.

I will take it with appreciation and fully move on while I work on getting another one
or better one with time.

I travel long distance often and I can't risk travelling long distance with such vehicle.
The vehicle could still serve anyone that doesn't travel long distance though.

yes he replaced the araldite and dangote cement with ogbuta and lafarge cement

The picture you saw on the second page is how it was supposely sold to me as TOKS.

It was snapped after the gear mechanic in Nigeria dismantled it even before he started repair work on it.

Besides! The rejected vehicle is still in dealer's slot and my 1.5M paid to him is still with him.

He is being given reasonable time to resolve the issue based on what we both concluded on which is ... (probably
to be explained later with the dealer's details mentioned here especially if this issue is not resolved on time and the money out of the over 1.9M I've spent he thinks he should give back to me with his church mind is delayed beyond expectation).

Oh!

I thought you were referring to the picture of the gear showing the work they have done on it in Nigeria; I wanted to clear the air that was how it was met.

LOL! But if I was the dealer, I will consider and analyse lots of things and I won't let this issue drag nor take too long since over 15 days that the issue was reported to me.

Since the buyer has been able to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the said toks vehicle that has used over
one and half years in Nigeria has underlying transmission problem(even detected on its COMPREHENSIVE VIN report) with two(2) previous accidents even though I never knew earlier, I will refund the buyer his 1.5M ASAP while he bears the loss of the over 400k that he has spent on the vehicle even with apology.

But here in Nigeria, pride of not being able to admit to some mistakes and even resolve it ASAP with apology is common between us until when it costs more than we bargain for that we will now be saying "had I know" like it happened to inspired autos (InspiredM) who is no longer where to be found in the auto business.

Pride comes before a fall they say! !!

Anyways!
The evangelist of my previous church where commissioner of police worships told me to give him more time before we take some steps
when I explained the ordeal to her yesterday in the church.

She as well made me to know that God has reasons for making my ordeals on my cars to happen which I reasoned about and confirmed to be 100% true which has even made me to learn my biggest lesson of/in 2018.

The dealer is only doing himself if he thinks that he is doing me by holding onto my money from my sweat! !!

Besides! I just came across a thread which pointed out what happened to my EOD customs paper that was also discussed here.

The thread is https://www.nairaland.com/4798019/distress-sale-2017-honda-accord/1 and below is what I contributed to it for others to learn from.

This was even a comment I made in passing over the weekend,only for my mentions time line to start blowing up yesterday.
Some of us know that most of these vehicles have no customs duty paid. What they attach to the sales is forged machined outside entries or recycled entries which is the process by which one document is used for numerous vehicles of the same make.
So because some of us decided to stop posting on the autos section because of fraud does it mean it is not going on?
Where were these guys when we were battling inspiredm and chelseabmw on these boards years ago?
Those opposed to my posts know why they are doing it.

I was a victim of the bolded on my 2005 Honda accord that was bought at Oloruntobi Motors which is at Meiran, Lagos.
They've still not resolved my ordeal let alone compensate me; you can save these their numbers to be sure you are not
buying any vehicle from them to avoid being proned to fraud. Their numbers are 09098064935(Mr James), 09095491881(their boy with nairaland username icedre that posted the vehicle on auto section https://www.nairaland.com/3022535/sold-sold-honda-accord-2005 ) and 08099916782(one old man).

My car almost got seized by customs after Ibadan on October 12th 2018 or so but I thank God I scaled through after over six(6) hours delay.

I suggest you open a fresh thread to describe your ordeal and to save other buyers from same. Hidden on page 8 of this thread, very few people will see it.

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.

Hello Sir.

To understand the AutoCheck score one has to consider the total history of the vehicle. Factors that influence the score include the title, number of previous owners, accidents and their severity, Liens, specific use such as Taxi and Livery use, odometer readings, service history, and a lot more.

The score should also be understood in the context of the average range. The raw score is specific to the vehicle in the report, but the range is for millions of other similar marque and model, example,

Your vehicle's current score is 18, but the range is 23 - 45.
In comparison, the 2007 Lexus ES 350 scored 35, but the average range for millions of other similar 2007 Lexus ES 350 was 73 - 86

Your vehicle raw score (18), while lower than that of the Lexus (35), is closer to the overall Camry average (23 - 45)

The Lexus score (35) while higher than that of your Camry, is much lower then the overall Lexus average (73 - 86). Taking into account the other parts of the history, the Lexus appears in poorer condition than the Camry

The specific AutoCheck score of a vehicle as well as the range will continue to fall over time to account for the overall fall in the general condition of vehicles as they get older

Your Toyota Camry was manufactured in 1998, 20 years ago, and shipped from the USA in 2013, 5 years ago. Both the raw AutoCheck score and the range would have been higher back in 2013

The Lexus ES was manufactured in 2007, 11 years ago, and shipped in 2017, 1 year ago. In 5 years, both the raw score and the average would have fallen

The history is one aspect of the condition of a vehicle. Thorough physical inspection is always strongly recommended after the history report. Maintenance and service habits will also contribute to the performance and condition of a vehicle.
