Personal opinion, don't bother. A colleague had em. The euphoria would be short lived as the xenon bulbs fade and plastic casing oxidates within months of ownership.

Lexusgs430:



What you need to do initially, send her a message or call her. Tell her about your wish for you guys meeting up for a reconciliation chat. Use her reply to gauze her initial reaction.

See the above point, follow it OP. You mentioned you want to reconcile. Its your right and until your wife proves otherwise, no one should coax you into doing the opposite.

Autos / Re: Regd LR3 For Sale... by Somatic(m): 2:43pm On Apr 02, 2018
saintjoel:


The Land Rover LR3, which replaced the Discovery, was launched in 2005 and sold through 2009, after which it was replaced with an updated version dubbed the LR4. The boxy, upright sport-utility vehicle was one of the better off-road utilities on the market, though its luxury brand tended to mean that many buyers never took it onto anything more challenging than muddy driveways.

You can now run along to play with your toys and also remember to tell momma to please help you with some candies, you can also run checks on the price of a toks 2013 lr4 while you're at it.

Updating the bumpers and headlights of an LR3 will not make it an LR4. While you are free to put any price you like on your vehicle, you should be honest enough to give a true representation of what you are selling. No one will kill you if you mention its updated.

All the airbags should have deployed in this crash, all. It was severe enough with front and side impacts.

True. Either the vehicle didn't come with one when it was "packaged" and sent down as "first grade, clean title Tokumbo" or vehicle owner with the active connivance of "Oga Rewaya" chose to downplay the airbag fault indicator in the vehicle's dash.

you are very stupid even the worst kind I have seen.

So your Damm brain tell you INNOSON can't assembly Nissan Cars

See the kind impact on this car and you open your Damm mouth to say "non deployment May imply that where the vehicle was hit,there exist no airbags for that model year".
My guy your village people is after your brain and senses.

#commonsenseisimportant

Not quote me unnecessarily

See why I advised you remove your head from your arse before typing? So Innoson now assembles 2001 Nissan Pathfinders/Infiniti QX4s? Wash the sh1t off your eyes and look at the picture. Car was hit on the side. Baring any airbag fault, primary airbag deployment in this crash rest with the side and curtain airbags if vehicle year and trim is so equipped and not the driver/passenger airbags. Every airbag has its impact sensor which determines its deployment. So, rather than cast aspersions on Innoson, you should be enquiring if a mid size SUV like the Pathfinder shouldn't come with side and curtain airbags and why they failed to deploy in this crash. But alas your head is still in your nyash. Enjoy yourself.

This is Innoson car

No Airbag deployed during or after the accident and you wan tell me this is not Innoson Brand

RIP to the car

Had you first removed your lice infested head from your arse before typing this, you would have realised that that is a Nissan Pathfinder/Infiniti QX4 that crashed there. And a non deployment MAY imply that where the vehicle was hit, there exist no airbags for that model year. Next time, take your head out of your arse before you open your mouth (or keyboard) and confirm your foolishness.

I understand you in the sense that I think I'm like your elder brother. Similar situations even. The logic is that if you want something, ask for yours. Don't go on sharing mine especially when I haven't given room to share. Personally, I'd rather give you the money to buy a new one than share or hand down to you my 3/4 empty bottle of perfume. So I dig.

Oya let's agree that with this report, Osinbade is correct. But 300USD equals 54B using 180 as exchange rate. So where are the letters for the 96B to make it the 150B Oga Jona stole in 2 weeks? Or Ngozi did not know that one too?

Car Talk / Re: Baddest Baby Boy In The World! by Somatic(m): 12:37pm On Mar 21, 2018
Jakumo:


Most enthusiasts who customize their vehicles don't care if such modifications make little or no difference to the market value of their cars.

As an example, I own a W126 1985 Mercedes 500 SE, known in Nigeria as the "Shagari Benz" which started out with a six-cylinder engine that I replaced with a far more powerful 5-liter V8 motor, along with its dedicated transmission, as well as with the entire back axle and rear differential from another donor W126 car that came from the factory with a V8.

I spent more money to buy a new brake servo for this car, than I did to purchase the entire car. By the time you add up the cost of a new timing chain, its upper guides, and new fuel pumps, I had already spent far more on the car than it is worth in any country's car market. Yet, I love my old W126, and when I punch the gas pedal, this chariot is capable of some truly frightening acceleration, as well as being very stable, responsive and quiet whilst cruising at high speed for hours on end.

Here is the model to which I refer.

This motor different na. Shagari Benz! Anyone well taken of even here in Nigeria will fetch a good sum of money. Unfortunately, the ones I don see are better left to rust in their misery.

Headlamps and side lamp(s) are misaligned. Tell painter/ panel beater to align them properly for you. IMO, the polishing shoulda been done before the painting to avoid smudging the paintwork.

Family / Re: Lessons From Marrying From A Rich Family by Somatic(m): 1:18am On Feb 18, 2018
So because someone does not agree with the issues raised by OP he's now a prïck and likened to a lunatic eh @chocberry, @DripDrop?


Never believe a one sided story, moreso where there are many sides to the same story. We may draw inferences from the narrative, however, if you choose to believe the scenario as OP put it, sorry to mention, you're believing in a well crafted fable suited to edify none other than OP himself. Moreover, after once reading a "he said/she said" story in this same family section, I've come to take - to the damage of my analytical kidneys- more than my fair share of a pinch of salt when reading many of Nairaland's e-tales.


P/S One does not have to be married to air views on married issues same as one needn't know how to drive to see reckless driving or one having children to know how to raise them.

My personal opinion biko (should NOT be misconstrued as fact)!

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked



In advanced climes Child Protective services will take custody of this child.

Her parents are a disgrace to parenthood.
They are no different from parents who smuggle their kids to Italy to go prostitute,
They are no different from parents who give their kids enamel plates and push them into traffic to solicit for alms,
They are no different from parents who teach their kids how to pick pockets at crusades.

This is unjustifiable,
There is no dignity in begging.
Not a single justification for such show of shame.

Her useless dad that wants to get Otedola and Linda's attention is probably somewhere playing Baba Ijebu and Lotto, or in one hostel in LASU sucking the brezz of his underaged girlfriend.

Leaving his daughter vulnerable to the preys that abound in the perversed city of Lagos.

Autos / Re: SOLD...Dubai Spec 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour by Somatic(m): 7:54pm On Dec 16, 2017
Readonee35L:

I'm not here to argue either. All I'm saying is the crosstour doesn't have Middle East spec.
That cross tour can be from Europe or America but not Middle east spec
Turn signals is an option anyone can add to a car.
It's just like saying Any venza without panoramic roof is not American spec.


I wonder if you import a Bentley or rolls royce from dubai now would you say it's dubai spec too?

You're a car dealer and you should know better.
My last post here.
Thanks.

While the Crosstour is made majorly for the US market, I'm sure there would be crosstours for other markets, albeit made with subtle differences and in much smaller numbers.

Using this as example, first look at the headlamps. The US/Canadian spec usually have the indicator part of the headlamps tinted orange/amber that usually turns on with the headlights. It's however absent in this Crosstour, replaced by clear lenses. Also, look at the rear lower glass of the vehicle. It isn't laminated as compared with her US/Canadian sister, which also raises the question as whether the entire laminated glass is factory or aftermarket. Look at the dash. The speed clock is calibrated in KM and not miles as in the US/Canadian spec. The mirrors are international spec though as you mentioned, they can be changed to those.

You're not correct Sir. Look at the rear door detail and compare with the 09-13. Also, see the dashboard, middle console area + steering wheel. the 09-13 is different even though this is the base trim of this model.
