₦airaland Forum

Fhemmy,
Thanks for the subliminal message on Personal Branding.
Everyone's responding to U & they dont even know Why? lol
Would seem U cant do a deal on a Pick Up Truck to save ur life?
I understand that the US-is that where U are?- isnt Toyota territory truckwise,But Its Nissan territory,aint it?
what would i be looking at for Nissan Hardbody, Auxillary Gear, manual drive,double cabin?92-96 versions
or perhaps its Mazda equivalent-no v6, 4000 pls?
or if U did get that Toyota Hilux, same specs as the Nissan but 94-2002 models this time?
Holla Back sir.

Bros,
Are U sure this is an 88 mazda?

Condition looks pretty Good.
Middleman, Ur pictures usually have more detail!
At 350-300k, its not easy to make the effort.
Best of Luck.

calabaman,
From the number of Posts, i see U're not new to the forum.
The pix U sent are not bad,but the info is incomplete.
This 4runner is at best a 97-98. At Best.
Its lagos used.
How U going to ask 1.3M for a package like this?
People will back me up on this. An 01-02 4runner will land for 1.3M.
You can see the maths is off. Re-align and make us a better offer sir.
Thx.

Nairalanders, Why Una Harsh like dis/
Someone make the dude an Offer!
Hands up if U never carry this kin car go find woman back in the Day?

Ride this to Church- Arrive in style- Beat them?
Dude,while he was here, He used a Donkey,Walked miles,Spoke from upsides of Mountains so Laws of Physics would carry his voice downwards.Occasionally walked on water- Now, thats something to emulate!

Its not about how U get to church,What style U arrive in or whom U beating hands down.
This apart, I got no beef with U.

Aw Shucks!
All dis love in the air's got me misty eyed.
My touchpad's not working right as a result of the salty tears i've cried on me laptop. Dont U get it, The Love's just too damn much!
I know all the people mentioned in the Moderator's Love letter and the kind co-contributors wont mind taking the love a little further, sob, sob, and giving me a healthy discount, sob some more, sob, sob on the Toyota Hilux i could not buy this year,sob,sob.
It has to to be a factory fitted AC, Auxillary Gear Model,sob,sob. It must be Clean in and Out,preferrably with Low Mileage,sob,sob some more.
Anyone feeling the Love,sob,who wants to make me cry more tears of Joy-Got plenty more where all this sobs came from-should pls reach me on this forum with Pix attached.
In the Interest of all the Love in the Air, pls keep your prices sobbing low, if U know what I mean.
One Love,sob,plenty sobs,Everyone. One Love,sob,sob,sob

Yep it is!
Best of Luck

Prop 1,
Is it a V6 3000?
Advise Mileage pls

Again, Dis matter of miles vs Kms.
A car thats done 100,000 miles has actually done 160,000kms-The difference is clear.
Conversely, a Car thats done 100,000Kms has only done 62,000miles.
Chi_chi,E be like say U know Good thing now!

Lets get something right. Most cars show U Kilometre/mile readings. a car thats done 130k+ miles has actually done 209K+ kms. Thats a Defining point in the Price of a car.
All phones-well,most- have converters installed. Use them and price yourself appropriately.
Clean car by the way. Best of Luck selling it.

Good People,
Frankly its a surprise we dont see more of this type of Thing.
A lot of us dont realise the viewership Nairaland Autos get!
Let me get into the mind of the Thief here-
1) Its premeditated. I did not go out hoping to get Lucky. I made calls, I inspected previously.
2) I already knew i would have only 1 escort. i took care not to go with anyone who could be held down while i made my escape.
3) I knew enough to know the Particular escort would be persuaded by the Gun-Believe it or not, it wont always work
4) Do I need the Papers? if they were in the Car,it would be the Height of Sloppiness

What can we do?
Nothing really. Just Pray. God still answers with Miracles.
Friendl did not deserve this. But he'll learn. As will all of us.
Its Well.

Thanks for the Elaborate info on Phones. Kindly do the same with the laptops.
The specs will be a major determinant.
Great Wknd.

Good People.
Do we have stats on total number of vehicles sold on nairaland?
We all know posting pics helps,but we can only prove it to d people willing to believe if we show them the figures from sales of cars with pix posted vs sales? of cars without pix.
Will it be adding to much work to Monitor's load?
Yes, its not all cars that got sold that are mentioned on the forum( Mainly because some people dont want to share their Joy)but when something goes wrong, we hear, dont we?
Lets think about dis?

Threads like dis make me Glad i come to Nairaland.
Analytical-Yes O
Factual-to D end
Educative- Researchers everywhere
Civil- matured men & women making their point
Enlightening-D last time i heard the word conundrum used was in an X files series over 10yrs old!

But some issues?
the seller is underpricing himself by calling it a 94 when the vin says 95 & the body styling says 96
Friendl is one of the more reliable dealers so i cant find it in myself to doubt his word.
However,We all agree this is Nigeria & People do make mistakes.
I think he should check the vin again.

Is there a Moderator on Dis Forum?
Perhaps he's been busy?
Pls move fast to clear this mess.
Most of us come to nairaland to be educated. Not to have our sensibilities assaulted.
Thanks for Anticipated action.

I mean that if U have any info on the previous Hilux transaction, pls throw some light.
If U dont,pls help all of us by posting the pics of the L300.
I'm interested & who knows, maybe another 2000 members may be too.
Great Day sir.

Let me get this Right.
A)1music2luv advertised for the sale of a hilux in kano.
B)midi459 quoted a price of 800k
C)chatupkay advised us its been sold-No details
4)Ayusman is selling a Mitsubishi L300. also pre owned by another Multinational without Posting Pix

So,
Did Midi459 buy the Hilux?
Who's chatupkay?
will we hear when Ayusman sells his L300?
Who will advise us?

can someone simplify this Quadrangle?

Nice Car. Underrated. SOHC is preferred to DOHC but latter is more common. Timing chain issues are most frequent problem. Good Fuel. Parts are not overly expensive. Solid Middle class car.

Good Day sir.
D pix doesnt do justice to d car.
Can we get more & better ones?
Does it have an auxillary gear?
Mileage?
standing by for info sir.

Go to www.Honestjohn.com or Edmunds.com.
the 1st is more likely though or just Google Opel Senator reviews.
Best of luck.

Viperman,
Check out a guy on the forum who needs a double cabin Hilux.
U know we discussed this. dont know if i can find the link,I would have passed it on.
Lets see how it Goes.

Talk to viperman on 08068097693.
I believe he has 2 of something similar or exact,
Best of Luck

Greatcarz,
Thanks for the Education. I did not even know this babies were made in 97.
But Tell Me?

Cheerio.

Is there anything to learn from Business going southwards because of system failures-Yes
Is there anything to learn from not trying the system at all-No
We're not all thieves. Everyday people make money in Nigeria by doing it right. Its Easier. Its Easier because they're so many people doing it wrong.
Italians have had the Mafia for so long. Its benefitted Italy nothing.
The Japanese have the Yakuza. Japan is known for its Electrinics & Industries instead.
The Japanese have formal training systems & a system that encourages Parochialism,discourages non conformity,encourages Tenure. Its gotten them nothing. America supports non conformity in Education, Business. Encourages Innovation at any age, supports Meritocracy. America is the home of new inventions.
Nigeria's problems will remain for a while.

BUYERS,
Come lets reason together.
An online forum like Nairaland is a powerful tool.
1.By asking that pics be sent to ur box, U dont get a better price.
2.U cannot ask for advise on a car thats not being posted with pics
3.A public auction brings out a better price. How? Not everyone will be taken in by the Buyer's price. if he's asking for Xnaira & Public opinion is Xminus100k, that automatically becomes the price. The seller can agree or go elsewhere.

The seller does not have a camera? Pity.
But thats not the case here is it
If anything goes wrong in the transaction,U cant come back and alert the forum. By buying Offline, Its no longer in the Public Domain.
SELLERS,
Why settle for 7 visitors when 10,000 people can see it.
My two pence

Baconline,
From where I'm standing,nothing do dis ride.
780k aint unreasonable. Such a pity that its the Buyers who have most say in selling a car.
best of luck sir.

Middleman, Standing by for Pix of the Hilux.
Great Day.
