You said you want to buy your first car and you want to start from any of these big cars. Why not start from a smaller car so that you learn more about driving and cars.
thats a gud advice. starting from smaller cars will guide you and give you satisfying experience and ego as well. Though you can still get acquainted with cars from bigger once... if the cash is ''nothing''. I bet you, you will so enjoy your second ride like ''malt and milk''. Cos youv understood what you want in a way that is best for you.

Car Talk › Buying Cars From Cotonu by rainmaker12(op): 4:53pm On Dec 07, 2014
We are aware that cars from cotonu are very cheap, but transporting it down to your destination is almost an (reserve my word).
What is your opinion, if you buy those cars in cotonu and make registration here in lagos, then take the papers, including your plate number back to cotonu, would that compensate the huge extra cost from boders, since your car is already registered?
Just want to hear from you....

You will agree with me that honda suspension mechanism can be very disappointing, even when you think you have the right parts. Help if you know where to get oem parts and not get completly ripped off.

..............stressing out. lol
i always make sure it doesnt get above 4k rpm wen changing to any gear.
i hit constant 3200rpm at 140kmph, hitting 5400rpm at 180kmph.

Na lie. The motor wasn't faulty in that SUV. The dumb mecho killed the engine by constantly pushing the rev counter to the redzones.

if the suv aint faulty redlining shouldnt have wrecked the engine. except for frequent habbit...(days)

I won't use spinners on my lawn mower and I'm entitled to my opinion as long as it's within the NL TOS.

Go find someone else to hump.
He wasn't asking for your opinion, he need help from those that can, if u can't y not walk away. The thread never said "Let's have your opinion"
Car Talk › Any Disadvantages For Rev A Car Up To 6000rpm Acceleration.... by rainmaker12(op):
Sometimes you feel you need to get there faster...expecially at night... so when the toll barriers are lifted up, u step on the accelerator like never before and the car jumps to the next gear with ultimate response, getting to the 4th gear you found out your stock to 140kmh, stepping out of the pedal for a moment, you hit again, what seems impossible became....... (I reserve my word) giving you the access of up to 7500rpm you feel the power coming out of the exhaust channel as the car jerks to 180kmh getting ready for the next flight of 200kmh....
If I may ask what are the disadvantaged of such high rpm and advantages if any.

It's not that difficult to exceed the 140km/hr mark Sir. If your car is auto transmission, when you are around that speed limit, release the accelerator and depress it again just a little below it's previous position. If your engine and transmission are top notch, it will surprise you how your accord will respond. Be ready to 'fly' though, cos the movement becomes something else!! cool

I advise you stay below 140/hr though, no matter where you're driving. Life has no duplicate Sir smiley
I like the sound of that...
Car Talk › Re: Police Said My Car Is Stolen by rainmaker12(op): 1:36pm On Nov 06, 2014
ogawisdom:
There are no police report, vehicle license , car sale agreement signed with witnesses n most importantly change of ownership certificate (n I guess this last one is y police arrested u) there. Sth tells me ur car is nt stolen but police must chop frm u

Whose name is in all these papers, did u do change of ownership n I hope non ve expired

Ve u contacted d seller or do u ve difficuty reaching him or her.

Which car did u buy n at wat price bc d price u bought d car can help show u r innocent eg u can't buy a clean 1999 najia used toyota camry 200k n claimed u didn't kw it is stolen.

I hope u ve a decent occupation which can help prove u r innocent if eventually it is stolen.

Dnt panic ur offence ll b dt u received stolen car, u ll lose much money but ll b freed if u provide d seller.

Advice to all
Wen buyin naija used vehicle make sure u can easily reach d seller incase kasala
Come

Get his biodata, national I'd or international passport plus passports. A civil servant like teacher, lecturer, banker, lawyer, doctor n registered car dealers r d ppl dt r easily reached.

Op do well to tell us d username of d guy dt sold d car to u on nairaland may b anoda person ve an experience wit him good or bad b4 we can label him a criminal angry

My take
its a 1999 honda accord, bought at the rate of 460k
the vehicle licence expired a month ago pior to purchasing the vehicle, which i eventually renewed.

Dnt worry d car could b genuine but there is something missing in your papers and dts y it is tagged stolen. So if u really need our help list out all d papers and particular u got from seller let's see wat is missing. Police sabi maga ppl so stay cool
The particulars I got includes,

Third party insurance
Treasury cerificate
