udokpuenyi:
Apart from specifying the yr/model of the car you intend to convert to LHD, pls specify the color of your interior, that is a determining factor when searching for the dashboard


If this 2.4 , the price is 200k, it is a straight job



why did u call dis conversion a straight job. my neighbour has a 2002/2003 toyota camry 2.4L engine that he wants to convert.

crowther15:
I don't think anyone is reading the same book as I do
"How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" by Walter Rodney a British quite interesting, its exposed how western European countries gather their wealth through labour and and exploitation of black. hw they hinder our further development from communal to Feudal in 15th century. i'm currently in page 230. I need to read this to enhance my knowledge on economic policy and programs....... Student of economics UNIVERSITY OF ILORIN.

I av read the book, though I did not finish it seeing that Rodney seems to favor communism over capitalism.

The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli

It is a book which teaches effective tatics for an abosolute ruler

Here are some quotes from the book

Property matters more than loyalty - men would forget the loss of their fathers than that of their property

one must be a as wily as a fox to recognise traps and be as powerful as a lion to frighten off wolves

An unarmed prophet career must end in disaster

Fortune is like a woman favoring those bold enough to treat her roughly

A prince must behave like those archers who, if they are skillful, when target seems distant, know the capabilities of their bow and aim a good deal higher than their objective, not in order to shoot so high but so that by aiming high they can reach their target

No true victory is possible with alien arms

It is unreasonable to expect an armed man should obey one who is unarmed

There are two ways of fighting: by law or by force.

Autos / Re: Purchase Cheap,accident free cars 4rm Cotonou.. by seunben(m): 12:17pm On Jul 12, 2015
saintjoel4:


ASKING PRICE ALREADY INCLUDES COTONOU EXPENSES.

CUSTOM DUTY QUOTED IS JUST FOR THE NIGERIAN END.

AND YES,ASKING PRICE MEANS YOU CAN BARGAIN BUT NOTE THAT BARGAINING DEPENDS ON EXCHANGE RATE AND CONDITION OF VEHICLE.

I'VE A MECHANIC ON STANDBY BUT YOU CAN ALSO COME WITH ANOTHER MECHANIC FOR.SECOND OPINION....OUR DEAL ENDS IF YOUR MECHANIC DECIDES TO ASK FOR MONEY TO CERTIFY A VEHICLE OR HE DECIDES THAT HE HAS OTHER PEOPLE IN COTONOU THAT YOU CAN DEAL WITH.

WHAT MAKES 01 CAMRY XLE DIFFERENT FROM.LE IS JUST THE LEATHER SEATS AND V6 ENIGINE,NOTHING ELSE AND FROM OPINION,WHY PAY EXTRA FOR A CAR JUST BECAUSE IT HAS LEATHER SEATS?

Thanks 4 d prompt reply. I think I will have to trust ur judgement and that of ur mechanic. Since i will be comin with a friend who is a bit knowledgeable as regards cars I won't be coming with any mechanic, i can't afford dt extra expense.

I will contact u directly when I am ready.
Autos / Re: Purchase Cheap,accident free cars 4rm Cotonou.. by seunben(m): 11:03am On Jul 12, 2015
saintjoel4:


ASKING PRICE FOR LE IS N878,000 + N140,000 CUSTOM DUTY.

ASKING PRICE FOR XLE IS N955,000 + N140,000 CUSTOM DUTY.

NOTE.: I'LL SUGGEST YOU SETTLE FOR THE LE AND GET A REMOTE KEY DONE AFTER.PURCHASE.THERE'S NOTHING LIKE FULL OPTION IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL,YOU'LL WASTE EXTRA MONEY.FOR LEATHER SEATS AND V6 ENGINE.

As regards the asking price u quoted does it include the price of the vehicle and coutonou custom duty?

can a customer still negotiate on the asking price?

The custom duty u quoted is it Nigeria custom duty alone or does it include coutonou custom duty?

what do u mean by there is nothing like full option in the toyota camry 2001 xle model?

do u have a trusted mechanic or do I have to come with one?

Hopefully I will contact u directly when I am ready. I want to get either a toyota avalon 2000/2001 or the toyota camry 2001 xle model depending on cash.

1. WE HAVE DONE THAT ONCE BUT IT WAS ON THIS SAME NAIRALAND THAT SOME PEOPLE CAME UP WITH THE STUPID CLAIMS THAT THE ACCOUNTS WERE OPENED BY JELAD VENTURES TO PUSH OUR SERVICES,THAT WAS WHY WE DISCOURAGED IT.

2. ASKING PRICE IS N1M + N180,000 CUSTOM DUTY (PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS SUBJECT TO FLUCTUATION IN EXCHANGE RATE).

3.WE HAVE STOPPED SELLING NIGERIAN USED CARS DUE TO SOME FINANCIAL STRESS WE HAVE BEEN FACING SINCE LAST YEAR BUT WE CAN HELP YOU SOURCE FROM DEALERS IN LAGOS OR COTONOU.
Thanks. I would contact u when I am ready.

Good job u are doing @saint joel. I sincerely hope this forum had made a positive impact on ur business. i av the following obsevation/questions.
1. Don't u think it will be good for more business if u ask customers who had gotten their cars through your company come here and share their testimony on how the whole deal went. This will really encourage prospective customers to do business with you.
2. ow much will a toyota avalon 2000/2001 cost. I am hoping to get one by july/august through your company. what is the minimum price I should plan for, all factors coming into play
3. do u also sell fairly(nigeria) used cars
Family / Re: Marriage With 80000 Salary Per Month? by seunben(m): 5:05am On Apr 10, 2015
humilitypays:
One annoying but interesting thing about nairaland is; kids, teens and grown boys/girls just come here to type whatever they feel will increase their reputation and make people rate them high, whereas in reality, it isn't like that.

80% if not 90% of Nigerians are living and raising decent family with less than 80k per month, so what are we talking about here

When will our youths stop these their greed and quest for instant material wealth Every success in life comes with time not instant!!

Most civil servants in Nigeria today earn less than 80k per month after deductions...same with bankers and even those working in big firms you hear about and even wish to like
God bless u. Reading through the posts I was actually wondering how much those saying 80k salary is not enough to start a family are earning presently.
I think it will be better if they can tell us their marital status, how much they earn monthly and the kind of job they are doing.
How much do entry level officers in the Federal Civil Service earn or even hope to earn in the next 6- 7 years.
80k salary is a good salary in Nigeria, of course there are people earning far beyond that but the percentage is very small.

Car Talk / Re: 100k Salary Enough To Get A Car? by seunben(m): 7:07pm On Apr 09, 2015
With that salary u can maintain a car, in fact people who earn less maintain their cars with no hassles. All u need is to get a car that is not expensive to maintain. I think it is even better u get ur car before getting married or starting a family. Having a car does not stop u from saving or investing.

Family / Re: Why Do Babies Fall Sick When They Start Teething by seunben(m): 8:21am On Nov 15, 2014
Miami11:
My precious son is teething no sign of teeth yet, but the drooling, restlessness,crying, God I cannot even do anything in the house anymore, I bought dr hylands toothing gel and tabs they help a lot,can't waith for the tooth to erupt.
I believe the teeth will still come. it is not uncommon for baby to start teething before the teeth actually appears but if the symptoms persists u may need to see a doctor.
Family / Why Do Babies Fall Sick When They Start Teething by seunben(m): 5:15am On Nov 15, 2014
Babies (6 - 30 months) come down with fever and diarrhea when teething but paediatricians seem to disagree with this idea. However, I have observed that after bouts of fever or diarrhea in babies (6 -30 months) a new tooth usually appears. Is there any connection between teething and sickness in babies?
Religion / Re: Proof That The Story Of Noah Is A Fable And Unreal .... by seunben(m): 2:37am On Nov 06, 2014
Yooguyz:


The noahs ark experience was not a normal one but a supernatural one. Don't you believe God in his ominipotence caused all the animals to gather in one place and then killed their appetite and kept them alive till the flood was over. WITH GOD ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!

Good point. There is a reason he is called God. Mere human reasoning cannot comprehend his ways. His (God) ways are not our (human) ways.
Music/Radio / Re: 17 Years After, Tupac Lives On... by seunben(m): 5:43am On Sep 14, 2013
"Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots I give a holler to my sisters on welfare Tupac cares, and don't nobody else care And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot When you come around the block brothas clown a lot But please don't cry, dry your eyes, never let up Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up And when he tells you you ain't nuttin don't believe him And if he can't learn to love you you should leave him Cause sista you don't need him And I ain't tryin to gas ya up, I just call em how I see em You know it makes me unhappy (what's that) When brothas make babies, and leave a young mother to be a pappy And since we all came from a woman Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman I wonder why we take from our women Why we rape our women, do we hate our women? I think it's time to kill for our women Time to heal our women, be real to our women And if we don't we'll have a race of babies That will hate the ladies, that make the babies And since a man can't make one He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one So will the real men get up I know you're fed up ladies, but keep your head up"...................tupac my own lyrical "were". Seems like yesterday. Ur legacy lives on.

Phones / Re: Tecno Phantom A+ Discussion Thread by seunben(m): 5:45pm On Aug 18, 2013
henro111: Set sound alert
sure, all phones av sound alert. However, there are times when u delibrately put ur phone on silent or u may not hear when the phone beeps. The notification light kind of alert u that u av a notification. I think this is a shortcoming on the part of Tecno. They should include it in their subsequent phones. It is a great phone nonetheless. I am planning to buy one
