He was under no pressure to tell us about his dirty past, was he?
He obviously isn’t proud of what he did and I put it to you that nobody is spotless, not even you.

dru23:
Thank you my brother... Don't mind Valarinz of a guy.

socialmerchant:
I see some guys dragging dru23 as if they haven’t done worse. We are only knowing about his own past because he revealed it.
How many of you guys are bold enough to reveal bad things they’ve done in the past on a platform like this?
You all should rest ABEG

This is not a good sign at all . if there was sign of leak on the ground . Than good news at least u can try to trace the leak ... But if there is no sign of any leaks at all .. It means the oil is burning somewhere and more than likely the engine is bad .. You can always ask for a second opinion .........what type of oil were u using?

My experience from my uber cars .. During my early yes of uber with no experience with car maintenance. I used a 2003 camry at the time on my fleet. I was using 20w50 xhp The engine kept shorting oil with no sign of leaks on the ground and little white smoke coming out at morning start up very little smoke.

So my mechanic advice to top the engine with 20w50 and sell the car.. So anytime a buyer comes to look at the car . we start the car up to clear up the smoke before any buyer shows up . And that is how we were able to sell the car .[b][/b]. And from there on I vowed never to use 20w50 oil again.......

Aren't you the one that knows a Volvo engine seller in ladipo ... Haven't u bought engines for your tokunbo Volvo before ... Was the buyer aware that u bought a tokunbo engine at ladipo before selling the car

Kingdemu:
Do business with Dru23 at your own peril. This kind of guy can dilute the so called synthetic oil he sells with roadside oil before resealing and selling to unsuspecting buyers. Be warned.

dru23:
Closed deal ...... You got my attention... Am sure I got urs

MARKone:
Due diligence, with rippers like you? You sold a car with a bad engine, without informing the buyer, that is scam my brother.

so I saw this Volvo advert in a December 1983 Forbes magazine at my dad's place. it was kind of funny to me with fact that Volvo is not even a popular brand just 40 years later

I am not sure how we got here but this is totally unnecessary. Whatever personal issues you have, it may be worth resolving it in private.

Your blanket statement is hilarious at best and you are opting to cast a wide net without a care who may take offence.

So I bought a Volvo because my money no reach? LOL. Hilarious. I bought what suited my need. I needed an offroader that I can use a few times in the year that I am around and guess what, the Volvo XC90 ticked all the boxes and more. And after my initial experience, I have to say Volvo has delivered on many fronts and more. There is more to personal choice than just money. But each to their own jare. Feel free to double down on your claims.

When Safety is being touted as a reason to get a Volvo, it really isn't "wash" but a statement of fact. XC 90 has 5 star NCAP rating. There are passive and active features as standard. The XC60 is literally one of the safest car Volvo has ever made. Sigh. You see, some of us value the finer details of things but I'm going to stop here. Feel free to double down like I said.

All this fight no dey necessary, na egos and vested interests and ulterior motives dey cause the arguments above me.

One person dey sell Volvos, so he wan use style follow back promote im hustle. Nothing wrong with that, except when you give someone half information to create a wrong impression.

The other person often likes to be seen as knowledgeable in auto matters, which he usually is. However his ego is so substantial that he can often not distinguish between when to post, and when to just ignore.

To the matter at hand



I no get ulterior motive, so I can tell you a thing or two about some Volvo models.

Location and environment:

If you live in Lagos, my brother get the XC60. Though e just dey enter market small small compared to XC90, parts dey especially the initial models in 2010 and so on. You get XC90 so you suppose get network for Volvo matters.

However you mentioned off roading. If na all those perpetually flooded or very rugged Lagos areas wey need ride with good ground clearance and responsive 4WD, jump and pass over the XC60, e no go give you wetin you want.

If you live in Abuja, still get the XC60, but make sure say your current XC90 network go fit work for the XC60, including sourcing parts and doing repairs, I know some guys in Zuba and Apo wey be Volvo people. Again, if your Abuja na all dem Mararaba and Gwagwalada or Kubwa areas or areas wey need rugged 4WD, jump and pass.

If you live anywhere outside those states or regions, my brother jump and pass. You fit freestyle XC90 2.5l or the 3.2l in terms of parts and repair people in other random places, but I tell you say e no go work for XC60.

Volvo suvs are generally soft roaders. They're not seriously off-road capable from the factory.

QED.
