1. Vehicle came out of the Factory with Classic Silver but was sold as Black in Nigeria = Potential collision.
2. Last Odometer reading was 2017 @ 270,235 miles. I suspect they might have reduced the reading in Nigeria.
3. The last information from 2017 to when it was shipped to Nigeria is not clear to me especially with the duplicate registration. I'm a novice anyway.
Following keenly.

Inception:
observations;

2. That vehicle should be close to 300,000 miles(if it has not even exceeded sef) shocked shocked shocked

It's interesting to note that the hybrid components didn't fail for that long. Toyota's are just reliable. Meanwhile, i dont think the vehicle was used much after the 2017 reported mileage. I suspect it was put up for sale. And moved from lot to lot being sold late last year or this year seff and shipped thereafter this year. [s]Its likely the mileage isnt much different from what was last reported.
[/s]
let me guess: mileage in Nigeria is just showing 95,000 miles grin

The vehicle was shipped in March of 2019, likely with loads of junk in it. Its June, so its very unlikely that its been used here nor has the mileage been tampered with. If it has, then i cut cap for them.

Very correct my people, I saw silver instead of black, mileage was rolled back in the USA (no one rolls back mileage of a non functional vehicle in naija) mileage was 127,000miles, and yeah some really scary original mileage. But I was determined and unperturbed by the evidence at my disposal, instead, I used them as a bargaining chip.


We all sat down and began to talk price, 2 Igbos and 1 Gazzuzz grin

I resume work 9am, so let me quickly reach page 3 then stop and continue break time.


Now before Vehicle pricing I have the following to consider mainly back plans and going forward.


1. Cost of the engine,
2. Cost of the battery,
3. Cost of a Total Conversion.
4. Cost of Paint work (Standard)
4. Cost of landing a near perfect 2009
5. Cost of a near perfect Nigerian Used 2009
6. Cost of my happiness with a new ballproject



Engine 200k
Battery toks 250k
Conversion (proper) 700k
Paintwork 120k
Toks Vehicle 2.5-2.7m
Naija used 1.5-1.9m
Happiness = (invaluable)

I asked because this is in the equation. Since you're doing propror conversation is that still necessary? Sorry oh, we're asking to learn. Does the battery need to be present b4 conversation?

I guess he is weighing all options by doing a cost analysis of what he would likely spend when doing a proper conversion or going with the repair of what he met on ground.
Remember he said the 2AZ-FE HV engine in the car is faulty too. So the list includes what he would spend to revert the car to factory spec, or conversion (Factory spec but Gazzuzz made).

Trust me, I'm sure he went there well prepared with a calculator to intimidate the seller with how he would spend to restore the car back to life whichever path he choose to play with the restoration project.
Learnt that bargaining power from my dad, a thorough breed IPOB.
Most time sellers reach a compromise and end up begging you to buy if they know they have a lemon that nobody would likely show interest in.
Remember he said he went there very early in the morning? My oga probably capitalized on the “early morning trade secret” that might lead to “bad market” on the part of the seller if care is not taken”
What do I know, I'm just a novice here to learn.
