Muhammadson2020:Since you asked nicely I'll be truthful. Just like any other business it wasn't easy but my interest in driving and expanding to a proper travel and tour logistics biz kept me going cos I lost HP agreements along the way due to personal family issues and bills as well and then I took my last HP a Nigerian used 05 camry for 2m and I finished paying after Covid19 saga did so many travel and tour with the car, sold it and since have bought and sold corolla car twice and I'm still driving my personal banktype car right now even though i intend to change to muscle asap cos of my travel and tour clients. So baba, I know 2 guys that collected HP in ibadan bolt and when it didn't work well for them dey came to Lagos and av since finished paying for a Honda City 010 and a corolla 06, I know another 2 men that collected corolla 05 and 09 2years ago at my park on Lagos island at 2m Nigerian used and 3m toks respectively and both just finished the payment last month and this month, so baba may be you should come around me make i introduce you to this people wey i dey talk make you confirm say no be zobo. Nigeria is not a country one can just back down or give up, fine if you have other means you can always do 2 to 3 biz, bobody said you must do one business and we all know this business is not as profitable as it is in other developed countries but it still dey pay bills and more it all depends on how disciplined you can be. One thing I've discovered from "sarewas" like i always like to call people like you is that you know like to non abt the biz and even if you do lil visibility studies you really don't have interest in driving, and with a city like Lagos it take far more to sure in any business at all, so in a nut shell the interest has kept alot of us going till now and we still they make money o.

easytig:On a Sunday this is a good trip, firstly let the rider pick you on like 10k if you pick the middle or highest offer then call the person to negotiate and definitely from the info you have from the person and if you're a good negotiator you must not get less than 15k from 4to5 hours. As well people like this tends to do more than agreed from your conversation so if they do more than agreed you might as well have an opportunity to charge extra too. Several time 5k work can turn to 15k I'm sure you must have experienced that. 2 Likes |

Olayetan:The main warning is that never should you pick expecially male riders around Akala/Ghetto between Idioro and Oloosha Mishin and let them put something in your booth at night, never ever! NDLEA has been on their case their but their mata don eat very deep so make sure you tag that area as dark spot like law enforcement has done too and if you unknowingly carry some there go offline and keave that area with immediate alacrity. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

My advice is for you to check on how much you can sell that car, then ask popman for permission and if you're a good boy to him and he gives you the go ahead then consider selling the car after considering if you can get extra cash either loan or lend to balance and get another Nigerian used car. Bolt inspection points are very thorough this days and they will certainly reject the car cos of the year and I don't think Uber too will accept it as well only Indrive will accept that car and you will be frustrated as a beginner to start with Indrive alone, e get why... lol DOVgadgets: |

Well, my first question is what year is the Mazda? If it's 03 above then I can then ask if you know any family member you can manage with or if you know Lagos small? Since popman gave you the car and you car answer my questions above then Lagos may be your best bet as against driving that car in ibadan where you may get next to nothing. I have more than 3 guys that actually collected cars in ibadan and had to relocate to Lagos and their hustle dey pay wella here even though it's not all bed of roses sha. So Bolt may be your first plug search Google for their office to go and register and then you can download Indriver to back it up. I believe if the car enter Bolt you go dey alright and learn on the job. DOVgadgets: 2 Likes |

olusola2bello:If you're ready to spend some money for the clearance you want cos of some bad roads in Lagos, then go to Ladipo and find a space to park preferably by a foga (as we call them) then anywhere around that Gtbank side, tell the guy to take you to where you can do exchange,price 5 size 315/65/16, this will mean that you first bargain to change all your rims to 16rims so negotiate 16 rims first and then show them pictures of your own rims and them bargain, if your tyres are still OK do same if not then just buy 5 toks tyres of that size and you should have the clearance you want. This was exactly what i did to the same 05 Camry I still use till date 2years ago when I bought it 9ja used. |

adsmaster:This is the kindda of insightful messages i for one come here expecting to see, thank God bants done reduce with non visitation of some selected few. Anyways, i guess generally we Nigerians don't want to risk experimenting expecially since u might not get correct parts and mechanics readily available for the car u may want to try hence, everybody follow Toyota brands. I had discussion on this with my guys and one of us who has tried Nissan gave a good recommendations about it, Nissan Sunny 09/10, Nissan Primera, Nissan Almera and Nissan Sentra. And I actually went on Jiji to check and realised the toks is within +/- 1.5m which is about the same range that will finish a 2003/2004 Toyota Camry so you see why many will choose Toyota for durability and also for second hand value sale but the question now is which one of the above mentioned Nissan product can compete with fuel consumption of the Corolla brand since na fuel consumption must of us they first think of? This is where I will call of @Gazzuzz and other well experience ladies and gentlemen here to further educate us. This is my submission you can subtract and add. Peace! 1 Like |
