Keep deceiving yourself

HeavenlyBang:
The irony of someone who was so broke that he couldn't afford to pay for a car at once, possibly calling another person broke.

I've seen it all.

thebigkendo:
Yeah.. Selling on the non functional 500k car sales website

GAZZUZZ:
off your mic....

thebigkendo:
Somebody said he bought the car to use.. But upon noticing all the abracadabra on the car.. Decided to sell instead..

valarinz:
Legalwealth is this true? 5.2m?

If yes, then why will you buy this car that expensive to put it up for sale for like 500k higher negotiable, add up all the expenses it took to get it to Abuja from lag, and it makes less sense.

I think it's not so smart sha, invest over 5m and be looking for like 200k, and it's not like you'll sell it so fast.

Wish you the best sha

Camos:
300k

Kufie:
Normal level

Kingdemu:
I doubt if it is business wise to move a 2005 civic at that amount though it depends on the number of them the truck can move at once

Kingdemu:
That's a reasonable price bro

Kufie:
Call me let me deliver these cars for you jare

Yes, I understand you very well. But you can't really say it is "expensive" if you look at it holistically. If you look at it from the full picture angle, then you will see that it's actually cheap. Because It's usually a service rendered to people who buy brand new cars and they don't want it running heavy mileage being driven in between cities or states. Or for luxury cars that broke down and you don't want to risk having bad scratches / dent / damage in the process of towing with normal tow hook towing vehicles. For example, you bought a N25 million naira car in Lagos, but you live in Abuja. Lagos to Abuja is around 750km. A brand new car typically has a mileage from around 0 to 300km depending, and due to certain factors. Any car above 350 KM generally won't be considered to be a brand new again. So assume the car already has 150KM on it, then Lagos to Abuja being about 750KM, that means if a brand new car is driven from Lagos to Abuja, by the time it gets to Abuja, then it's not really a brand new car again, considering it has covered over 750KM on the mileage. So in a situation like that, the owner of the car might opt for a trailer carrier to do the delivery. Also, it reduces the risk on the car itself facing interstate travel. Have you ever seen all those interstate delivery drivers how they drive those tokunbo cars on the road? They drive it like as if they are doing a formula 1 racing, with a lot of rough + defensive driving. Do you want someone driving your expensive luxury car or brand new car like that? Definitely NO! Also carrying it by a trailer carrier also has its risks, we have bad roads and death traps all across the interstate route. So for a company like AA, insurance is a MUST, otherwise they can incur loss that can sink their company forever. Insurance isn't cheap. So all those things are factored in. Also, interstate haulage isn't cheap. Forget about it being a car and look at it as a goods. For example, your car might weigh up to 2 tons or more etc. So normal economic present reality of interstate haulage traveling, to move a goods of about say 2 tons from Lagos to Abuja at 250K with a trailer is not expensive. A container trailer will charge you like 1 million or more to move container from Lagos to Abuja currently. So I hope you understand my point. But I also understand your point too and I get you clear. It might not be economically for someone with a tight budget. I will just advice you that any company or person you choose to do the job, just try to check that the trucks are sound trailers and not the type that will be breaking down every 100KM. Cuz Lag to Abj far oh. So your car won't use 2 months inside bush. A company like AA has many advantages, like the trucks they use are sound trailers, then they have many. Worst come to worst, if their trailer breakdown, they can send another one there to continue the work to deliver it if the truck can't be repaired on the road. So that's it. Good luck

Openbusiness:
Contact AA rescue. They render this service and have such trailers that can do interstate delivery, whether for single or multiple cars. The other one I can arrange is for intrastate Lagos to Lagos only. This one can't deliver out of Lagos, and it is a carrier for a single car / SUV. Specifically for people whose luxury or expensive cars breakdown within Lagos and they don't want to use a towing vehicle with tow hook system to avoid any possible scratches or damage to the car in the towing process.

What are you oven baking the bumper for a??

HeavenlyBang:
Imagine the complete lack of self-awareness required to literally tag someone, then turn around and say that they're poking their nose in your business.

It's mind-blowing and I can hardly believe that someone could be this dense.

GAZZUZZ:
No de call my name sir, sell your car peacefully.
