Mpcoll001:
Back and better

This picked interest

Mpcoll001:
check the link to my whatsapp on my signature... [b]I can't see anywhere you asked for price[/b]s

Is that so?

Ok, I'm asking again, pls what are the prices?

Your WhatsApp link is irrelevant until I see the prices of what I'm buying

Fogman:
I refuse to agree with this. Most time consumption of fuel depends on lots of factor, most especially engine state. My Lexus RX 350 2010 fuel consumption is Same as my 4 cylinder Honda Accord. N9800 fuel fill both tank and they take me from Lagos to Anambra without refueling.

What year is the 4cyl accord, is it same year with the Rx?

Note that mpg values in cars get better with modern technology, so it won't be fair comparing an 010 ride with an 02 model for eg.

Also, on highway journeys, fuel consumption tends to even out among most cars, the koko is the city driving

Sa

On

peeps4u:
No, nothing wrong bro, just that it consumes more fuel than four cylinder vehicles (i4). The difference in fuel consumption might not be considered if you're not going to be using the vehicle very often for long distance drivings, maybe just from work to home basic driving

Ok, mpg values, agreed.

They're sweeter to drive sha, and less noisy than 4cyl engines(pre 2010 though)

dannybrasky:
Me just want to test drive after all said and done! Mr Obi,please don't sell this car without me test driving oh! We must put enemies to shame.

You will eventually walk in here like a boss my oga

Far from it, nigga is a tribal bigot who's been making snide remarks at "Igbos at ladipo", from the get-go.

Go back and read his comments slowly and you'll realise it's not just that he isn't Igbo, he hates them

depair:
I was broken hearted when I just noticed it's a V6. please let me know if their is a four cylinder available

Is there something wrong with V6 engines?

sheelay:
Sold, with thanks

Congrats bro

radautoworks:
VALARINZ OOOOO!!!

Yes ma, wetin I do again??

Mayor555:
you're very wrong.....

how much is the toks of 07 camry?
how much is the Toks of 07 Accord?

now check the resale value for each car, do the plus and minus.....

there you'll see why I said you're very wrong.

it depends on how we choose to see it.

You're being owed a chilled bottle of orijin,

Bros, you dey fear to indicate prices, state your prices so I'll know if the effort to add you on WhatsApp is worth it or not na

Nice one, let's fly the Volvo flag high, all Volvo lovers gather biko

demoBaba:
What's your problem? Why monitoring my trip, even posting my car including plate number.

Post same car, different pics from the one I posted, I'll delete it with an apology.

banky3w:
But he actually got your attention

Not in the way he wants it, he's nothing to contribute to cartalk and autos section but rubbish troll, so my only acknowledgement of him will be just as one.

Never to discuss car issues like he wants, let him call my cars shit all day, he'll get no response, hope u get

Fentanyl:
this man

You should start a music group with dino melaye

victimology is your stock-in-trade

once someone says something bad about volvo, you take it personal

are you a geely shareholder? isn't it just these xc90 and s40 you sell now and then?

calm down guy

Attention seeker

Painful truth : Gazzuzz is big enough to warrant my attention, you aren't. You can go ahead and talk shit all day long, you'll be ignored.

GAZZUZZ:
My thread

That wasn't what you meant when you dropped this introductory to the thread, was it?

Educate us Sir Gazzuzz, or I'll also ask you to read that guys question and pass since you have nothing to say

[b][/b]

Gazuzz:
As usual this thread might seem controversial and the timing a bit off, but this is cartalk and we talking about cars.

The autos section is littered with Nigerian used vehicles at varying prices some cars ridiculously cheap, some others even more expensive than tokumbor vehicles

E.g https://www.nairaland.com/5375972/2009-2010-toyota-camry

I buy and sell used and tokumbor vehicles on a weekly basis, I also do a lot of paid vehicle evaluations and come across a lot of vehicles with varying degrees of defects . After doing this a lot of times you know what to expect even before getting to the location of the vehicle.

At this point kindly note that there are still quite a few good Nigerian used vehicles out there and this should not be a generalization of all used cars .

This thread will list most of the common issues with certain brands and vehicle models that pushed them into the market.

Again useful tools like vin reports should be employed before purchasing vehicles with verifiable VINS.


As usual the thread is for educational purposes, if you do not have anything positive to contribute , read and pass.

GAZZUZZ:
Do not buy it

I won't go away you know?

Kindly go ahead and tell us why you think it's a bad buy

Is it cos it's a Volvo and not a Toyota you fix?

Or are you saying you just knock off a person's sale for fun?

Why do you outrightly discourage him from buying this car in this pic.

Stop hiding behind the fake 'cyberpeace' charade and provide some answers, why is it a bad buy?

noble71:
This Gazzuzz na case laugh wan kill me here.

Might seem funny to you, but it's someone else's hustle he's trying to spoil for no good reason.

I'm not sure you'll share same sentiment if someone else were doing it to you.

GAZZUZZ:
don't buy it

I'll ask you again, why?

Are you pretending to know it all without substantial proof or are you just doing this just to taunt me?

Kindly tell us why you're advising him against buying that car.

Thanks

Afekafe:
Please I need advice from Auto guru. I want to buy Volvo XC90 2007 3.0 t6 AWD Nigeria used please advise on the maintenance

The person advertising this car to you is not the owner, try and locate the owner, strike a good bargain and buy the car, it's a good one

It's actually an 05/06 5cyl T5 engine

There's nothing like 2007 model 3.0 T6 AWD

This is no 2007 model however, it's not a 3.0 T6 either

The problematic year model of the T6 series on Volvo are between 2000-2004(S80) and 2004-2005(XC90). Those too are not 3.0 T6 too, instead they are 2.9l T6

This person advertising the car to you wants to rip buyers off some cash by advertising it as a higher year model, hence the choice of calling It an 07 model, and as most sites will ask you to choose a trim, he went random and chose the 3.0 T6

Note that there's no 3.0 T6 trim on an 07 XC90 either, it's either a V8 or 3.2 NA engine (FWD or AWD)

Cheers

GAZZUZZ:
Don't do it.

Why Sir?

Eddee:
Dear Val, is this the face-lifted S40?

It's about 3yrs above the facelift which began late 04

OpenYourEyes1:
We are warned about great deception in the endtime. Why are you so blind?
Trust in GOD Alone. Do not trust in men. Read your Bible and let GOD guide & reveal the truth.
What I saw was very shocking. I didn't post everything because I wanted those who "see" to discover the truth themselves. I was convinced that not everyone will believe them. They didn't make sense to my blind mind either.
I feared and doubted what I saw... I didn't want to believe them. My doubts led me to researching to know if they were true or not, and they were indeed true.

GOD wanted to show me more things but I begged HIM to take it easy on me. I was consumed by fear due to what I saw and HE kept telling me not to be afraid.


If my mother still does not believe my vision on her images, how will strangers believe me. She honestly believes the images are Mary's images.

Wake up my brothers and sisters. GOD hates disobedience . Trust in HIM alone to escape the coming trials and tribulations.

satan is a "smart" deciever. Beware.

You smoke weed??

mojounited:
VN, interior and engine pics please. I'm interested in this.


Lol, my thoughts exactly. We need him to come do his thing here

The ride is clean, also cheap considering the year model, my silence earlier is obviously an endorsement, no faults to point out.

Give OP a call, if you're up for it but only lacking motivation, it's worth it

Clean, efficient, reliable, rugged and sweet ride.

Lucky buyer whoever gets it

Fentanyl:
saved for future reference

No point worrying yourself, I don't delete threads or posts, so come that future, this post will still be here.

I repeat, no one is perfect on their jobs, we all mess up once in a while. How we handle those mess ups is what counts

AgentGoat:
Explain to us why you collected her money without doing the job since last year because people will be skeptical of you from now on. Tell us what happened?

This one dey find drama.

He couldn't do the job after collecting the money because he is a scammer and a cheat and a fraud

That's what you want to hear abi. Pls next time change that "us" to "me". Majority of the people here are ok with his explanation and have moved on.

Thanks

AutoElectNG:
AutoElectNG would like to apologize to its followers, supporters, well-wishers, onlookers and indeed the entire Car Talk family and the extended
Nairaland community that this thread had to be opened.

Could the OP do us the favor of deleting any and all references to anyone else except the original vendor?

Our profound apologies to the OP.

Our profound apologies and regrets to radautoworks for the unfavorable mention on this thread (we have asked for the reference above to be deleted)

Profound thanks to Gazzuzz for being a brother in need and indeed, AutoElectNG owes you beyond what words can express.

AutoElectNG does not wish to join issues with the OP on this thread, however, AutoElectNG wishes to add that some facts have been suppressed (read that to mean not included in the above narrative of the events).

AutoElectNG believes that there is an appropriate time, place and forum to address the unbalanced narrative above – being so convinced of the same AutoElectNG will not allow itself to be dragged into correcting or including the missing information here.

We ask that our conviction be respected.

It is important to note that AutoElectNG is not fraudulent and never will be, even if the moniker might have become entangled in a business deal gone south.

AutoElectNG will not be deactivated.

Once again profound apologies to everyone.

We hope to back and better, God willing.

Thank you everyone.

We are sorry we had to be part of this kind of movie on this forum.

We apologize profusely for taking so much time to respond to the allegations above.

Now, that's how to earn a bottle of chilled orijin from me.

thebigkendo:
I actually don't agree with him but you are the volvo expert.. so in dru's voice "agree to disagree"

Oga, how many used Volvo's have you imported?

That guy is spot on with his observations. Thanks
