Pardon my generalisation, I meant anambra, imo, abia, enugu

Yeah, I get it.
Just needed to be sure that you are quite certain that Volvo parts, especially for XC90, are readily available in those states.

If you must get the XC90, get one with the headlamp washers intact.

The two pictured above have their washers removed and in their place, a garish hole. Either you get an XC90 without one so the bumper is flush, or you get one with all potential holes plugged in. It's not aesthetically pleasing and can be a haven for mud, dirt and rust.

Buy Volvo and enjoy safety and prestige. Parts are fairly cheap but they are very reliable when you use the right parts and oil for servicing.

On the internet we all like to sound smart.

So he should base his pick on a car on a washer sold for 2k at ladipo.

Next advise will be not to buy anyone without the rim logo intact, or anyone without mudguard

If the washers were readily available at 2,000 a piece, don't you think someone who spent in the region of 2million, buying, shipping and clearing the vehicle wouldn't be bothered with spending 4,000 in covering a hole left by a removed fixture?

Some of us are smart. Not just for the internet. Take note of that.

And you, in your infinite wisdom decides that the washer covers(as irrelevant as they are anyways), is the yardstick to determine which car to buy and which to make a pass on

So you're saying that assuming every other thing checks out on those cars, he should forgo them and go looking for those with the washer covers? How about mudguards, do we go looking for those with those too?

Pls, can you stop replying now? Jeez!!

If this was how it worked, then sellers would service the cars, change the Wipers, clean and wax the body, install new tyres etc before selling them.


It's a great idea, some people do make such effort. If our sellers can be like that, it would be nice. It's even a great selling point


But to base your purchase decision off the presence of headlight spray washer is grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Nna ehn, you see full gallant SUV, and of all the million parts that matter it's headlight washer that's your focus deal breaker?


You never ready buy motor and certainly have a problem niyen.

The thing just tire me, was even waiting for him to drop something tangible, he's mentioning washer covers.

Fortunately for the seller, this guy is nowhere near anyone willing to purchase his car, and even more unfortunate is the person who decides to be unfortunate enough to depend on this guys opinion regarding a car.

Na him type dey go buy Lexus with bad tranny due to too much internet wisdom

If you a dealer cannot bother to decently plug a hole in your "Tokunbo" vehicle, why should I assume that all other things check out? Mudguards are an option however, I will raise eyebrows if instead of four, I see three mismatched ones. Better you remove them (and all traces of them)entirely.

Volvo have models of same vehicle with and without washers regardless of their relevance. So if you decide to import the models with one, bring them up to standard rather than dismissing it as irrelevant and passing the expense to the customer. I gave my advice based on pictures the customer uploaded, one of which, from similar pictures is yours.

Do the right thing. It's only 2,000 apiece.

Decent sellers will do (and have done) all of what you listed and more, even in this forum. The car is not being sold in Nigeria at auction. It's sold at a competitive price. So why not bring it up to speed to compete favorably in the market instead of casting aspersions. There are a lot of better apportioned Volvo XC90 SUVs with the seemingly irrelevant material intact in car stands all over the country. Why should Muyesky settle for less?

I repeat, people like you are likely to end up like our dear legalwealth who ended up buying a defective car despite all his vin checks and internet knowledge

All the same, you're an internet warrior, that's where all your energy is, your type knows zilch about cars, it's only to zoom in on a laptop and seek for cosmetic faults, stop trying to sound like a car guru, you know nothing.

For your Info, those cars ain't mine anyways, if you knew your job as an internet warrior too, you'd go through my ad and see if any of those cars are among the advertised, let me help u

I assume I'm not a decent seller too, bet I've already sold more of these cars now than u can dream of in the next 20yrs .

Pls leave car biz for those who know something about cars, next time u want to ask someone to abandon a car, look for something reasonable as an excuse, cars are physical commodities, they are not used on a laptop.

Leave your laptop and enter the real world and learn, and yes, those items are 2k a piece at ladipo

Some people just get too much time. When did a headlight washer become a deciding factor?

I wonder if some of una dey think before una type sef. Na una type go dey buy car based on physical appearance (scratches, etc) when they're literally the least of possible issues in a car.
