How much exactly will land an 06-08 Volvo S60 2.5T 5cyl to Lagos

Hello GAZZUZ,
Pls, do you have any thread on wholesome reviews on VOLVO S60 2.5T 5CYLINDER.

MY EXPERIENCE AS I ENROUTE TO ABUJA FROM ADAMAWA*

The RUGA program has truly commenced!!!

In the early hours of Sunday, June 30, 2019 i enroute from Adamawa State to Abuja.
While approaching Billiri, i saw a multitude of cattles and Fulanis (men, women and their children) standing on the road, they looked stranded, It was as if they were sent out of their homes. I asked myself, Why is this large number of cattle and Fulani on the road?”.
Still moving, while approaching Futuk, a local settlement in Gombe State, I saw another multitude of cattles close to a river bank, these ones were more in number compared to the previous, and they included cows, camels, sheeps and goats, all being controlled and monitored by their Fulani owners. I thought they had settled there for a while for the cattles to have water to drink, probably after a long journey.

As we kept on moving, I was greatly surprised to see them in their numbers along the road as they increased geometrically. This could be the Settlers President Buhari is carving lands for, i thought.
Reaching Alkaleri, a town in Bauchi State, our vehicle stopped for passengers to have some rest and perhaps grab something to eat before we continue the journey.
Where we were at Alkaleri, i saw a young and vibrant Fulani herder; i approached him and engaged him in a conversation. This I did to find out why there were so many 'stranded-looking' Fulanis on the way with their cattles; i presumed he would know!
As i walked up to him, i said, Inakwana which means ‘Good morning’ in Hausa language and he responded Walla Hausa. At this point i suspected he does not understand Hausa language, perhaps not a Nigerian. I think i should speak the little Fulfulde I understand, maybe thats what he understands I said to myself. So i said Noi which means How are you? and he replied “Jam” meaning Fine. And I continued by asking him if he could speak Fulfulde in Fulani which is referred to as 'awodi fulfulde na' and he said Oui which I know to mean Yes in French. Why didnt he reply me in Fulfulde but in French?, I became more curious, i decided to communicate in French with him which I discovered he could only speak well, luckily for me, I understand French too, so the conversation continued in French.
I asked him Tu parles Française and with a big smile he answered, Oui. Hearing me speak French, he was so amazed, the joy was written all over his paled face. In French, i inquired to know where he came from and he told me he was from Mali. MALI!

This immediately confirmed my suspicion, he was not a Nigerian!
It was there and then I knew that Nigerians are on the verge of losing their lands to foreigners.

If you are a Buharist and you love what he is doing, my brother, continue to support him! I bet you, this will not only affect you but your entire generation.

I wish for this not to happen in my generation because it's a pity that this generation is full of cowards.
I say this without apology!

RUGA program means 'allowing foreigners to graze and live with us in our own land'.

THIS COME FROM A FRIEND FROM MIDDLE BELT OF NIGERIA ON
[7/9, 22:59]

I believe this guy. This is what we have been saying but it hard for people to understand this. In some parts of the middle belt, fresh lands were already demarcated and sign posts erected for RUGA. The speed at which federal government made money available to execute this should make anyone one who is objective suspicious. About 12 northern states or so have already agreed to RUGA and one will wonder why the government did not go ahead to execute the project there but decided to suspend it because of the outcry from other parts of the country. This should not be farfetched. Their interest is in the south. They already conquered the north. No to RUGA in any form o jare.

My chairmen in the house,
Pls, will like you to throw more light on the pilot (I don come again....lol) regarding the AWD.
Will like to know if the AWD comes with an option of usage only when needed or its by default wholly AWD.

And what's your recommendation btw FWD and AWD assuming the AWD is optional i.e you basically activate the AWD web u needed am.......CC NUREY

Temptee101:
What sort of unintelligent players are these

So out of 200 million people we can't select just 11 persons

Tufia...cursed nation

Bros we no go fit cos anytin wey them politicise is doomed to fail just as everything else in D's country is failing....

No offence guys but even Nigeria is failing as more attention is paid to politics and cattles than the well-being of the human inhabitants......

nurey:


the engine is the common engine found in 10+ vehicles of Nissan Maxima, altima, G35, Murano, Pathfinder etc them plenty.

The expensive parts am talking about is body parts door panels, headlamp and tail lights, bumper, grill etc. The complete headlamp for both sides tokunbo used to be around 120k like 5years ago and vandals do steal it just like they steal Corolla brainbox

Wow......that's scary.....so person go leave your full motor com tiff only the lights, na wa for us for my beloved naija....
What about the gear system, how expensive are they to replace.....
Does it come in strictly AWD or does it have the FWD variant....

nurey:


Fx35 is a CUV I would say basically an elevated car with bigger interior like a fullsized luxurious sedan, don't be fooled by it's concave ameoboid shape it's got room for passengers both front and back. The VQ35DE has 240hp with all that weight, the FX is quick off its feet. The suspension are soft so off-road,bad roads you did feel it in the cabin. The dash screen has got warnings well illuminated and also acts as an OBD scanner. Experiences minor electrical glitches but you did be fine as long as you use only 100ah battery. The FX is way ahead of it's time.

The Honda pilot Touring EX-L with Nav is the closest thing to the FX, funny enough the J35 in the pilot is a little more fuel efficient than the FX in city and highway. The 3.5L of your year has 244hp yeah it isn't as fast as the FX the pilot is a solid off-road capable vehicle, the FWD varariant though could be a slouch.

Maintenance- I will give it to the pilot parts are cheaper and don't fail you also don't need a technician with PhD degree to fix it

Fuel economy- Depends on where you are coming from though the pilot has better MPG but 1L difference to me does cut it this is a tie.

Reliability- Pilot, less techy, straight forward build no hanky panky.

Resale value- The FX has an upper hand, it's getting rear on road could be a classic in few years time.

Verdict- The FX though a Nissan and with Nigerian mentality about Nissan's I did say is the best choice if severe off-road isn't needed and area of driving it is posh not ajangbadi, okokomaiko, ajegunle where other insane road users can easily bash or steal it's parts (yeah the body parts are expensive) the vq Engine is cheap and readily available.

The pilot is not a bad vehicle, I would pick it to blend in and enjoy top notch reliability

This is all the exposie I need. My area no really get good posch roads yet not that bad....only needs the use of a vehicle for my spouse to drop off kids and pick them up from school and maybe ones or twice a week movement to ikoyi from iyana ipaja.....now the FX from all your explanation go make brain but the only ish now na weda the mechs for am easily Dy available and the expensive parts, on a scale of 1-10 how expensive....

HeavenlyBang:


VQ>>>>>>>>>
FX is a driver's car. More luxurious. Pilot is a truck.

That said, the FX has no business off-road. So if bad terrain is a factor, the Pilot is the only option.

Hmmmmm, I talk am say ones Una come all our car entropy state go enta equilibrium straight....thanks man.

With this, I just confirm am without an ounce of doubt say my bar na pilot e go enta.....thanks again bro

jceesquare:

This would be an interesting comparison. I favor the FX to come out top in raw power and drive thrill after driving a friends own from Lagos to Benin, and the Pilot to win in practicality and fuel economy.
Nurey and HeavenlyBang oya work don set

...as in ehn, I Dy wait for them like say tomorrow no Dy.....the auto gurus.....lol

jidobaba:
you sef dey follow that canada to naija toks thread
In the same vein guys, what's your take on the Ford f150 2003-05?

Bros Wetin man go do na.....all of us Dy wait for testimonies first before making that move and while at it be able to make a we informed decision, all thanks to u guys here.....
Taking my time...lol

Guys good evening and hope y'all well, happy new month by the way.

Pls, a wholistic comparison between infinity FX 35 2004 and Honda pilot 2007.

My reason for this is the fx35 in recent times have been incredibly cheap and almost same as the pilot......both toks.

Pls, respond.

Shalom!

Ummmm......The Oba Solomon UKUAKPOLOKPOLO of the Benin kingdom will never leave his Royal palace for no reason especially when it's political then damn it.
My plea is that our heritage be not diluted like those of the yorubas (no offence), which is basically political appointments.

Oba Eware, may you reign even greater than your ancestors but please do not dilute, make cheap or drag through the mud our LONG PRESERVED Monarch heritage.....
Oba ghatokplere ise.

Make Una Neva too happy oooooo.......instead make we pray more cos from what I understand, an average Fulani doesn't forget or forgive. It could take a decade or two or even several, they will be back.....they might even fuel anything else just to make Nigerians now believe ruga miagt just be the way out. Mind you, this drive by PMB no be Wetin start today oooo, it might amaze you to know it started with our independence since 1960.....their egenda will always move on as far as they are always in power, this might be actualised except we the southerners especially CHRISTIANS go back to our root. This Islamisation fight has been on since after the days of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ......
Ones upon a time, Turkey, Seria and others were all Christian countries but today you know the story, my point is it didn't happen over night, Dy keep brewing until it is well refined and then they lunch......Baba God, na only you we get, fight our battles.

Pls, can I get such updates on strictly Honda Pilot from 2005-2009.

Thanks.

weyreypey:

A not too good road will be better with the 4runner. Highlander is a devilish deception.

@weyreypey,

Abeg explain Wetin you mean by "devilish deception" in the guys of a vehicle.......o boi eeehhhh, all highlander owners Una go need deliverance.....and as for me, highlander no go see my tail light laye laye......

Lastly bro, what's ur take on this BSI issues that sort of almost renders the vehicle useless......
Pls, shed more light sir.

weyreypey:

Na so you go drive people into Peugeot BSI wahala

@weyreypey

Pls, do share your opinions regardless.

nurey:


Dem Boku Wella. Peugeot is everywhere 4 my area

.....ahahahahahahhhahahhaha....did u say boku!!!!!!!!
Na good news b dt so far.

So for a 6.5" tall dude, which of them would you recommend?

Cost range of btw 800k-1.4m max

lade007:
Depends on the persons budget

Say btw 1m-1.4m max

@lade,
So which of the Peugeot product will you recommend for a 6ft 5" tall dude.

How about their mechanic here in the south with Lagos being the location in view

nurey:


if I have extra cash on me I would buy the Peugeot 206 CC or 206 SW without blinking an eye lid.

Peugeot plenty in the north pass any other car 306, 206, 406, 407, 307, 301 all reliable vehicles.

...just reminiscing about my childhood and remembered vividly that whenever we were gathered and discussing our different futures at the time, this was the common conclusion that "...WHEN I GROW UP MY FIRST CAR WILL BE PEUGEOT 504, 505 etc"

Guys, when I where did Peugeot get it wrong, apart from federal govt workers now when Dy manage use am (I stand corrected anyways), these cars don Dy slowly turn MAMMOTH or even SASQUATCH wey Dy either go into extinction or perhaps shy of civilization...inshort, PEUGEOT don turn the ABORIGINALS of Australia.....lol

Guys, what are your takes...

nurey:


in 2009/2010 one of my aunt bought a Chevrolet Alero, light green colour from Cotonou I have forgotten the amount very beautiful looking vehicle.

Within a month, the engine don kpuff due to inability of the user (her child) to understand the working Dynamics as I am talking to you now they have not found the engine and the car is just a luxurious fashion show, it is just park there waiting for replacement Engine. You did ask can't mechanic rebuild it, well I am sure he could but where will he get gasket even if he can work other engine parts.

This particular Pontiac shares part with vehicles I have never seen on road or vehicles I have seen wasting away In kazeem shop, best advice is if you are in Nigeria just admire the car and walk away

@nurey; ur experience and knowledge of autos Neva cease to amaze me.....inshort, all D's nairalanders ehn, Una too gbaski.....thanks for the details.

I kukuma know say by the time I finally make up my mind about the choice of vehicle I will by, with u guys I know I can Neva get it wrong after all it is said that "...HE THAT IS HUMBLE ENOUGH TO ASK FOR DIRECTIONS WILL NEVA HET LOST' even in a foreign land......

Thanks a million.

To whom it may concern;
My YouTube notification just alerted me that this is a reliable beast that most people don't even know about and then I looked it up but cld nt really grab the technical jargons so I'm here for your take on it and if we have good mechanics that know about them and can fix them....not trial and error mechanics.....
The beast na ....drums rolling.......

PONTIAC BONNEVILLE SSEI 2000-2005 edition.

Note; this was a June 29th, 2019 post of my YouTube page.

Guys and ladies alike, infact, all the automobile aficionados, make Una help me digest ds baby beast and give your unreserved opinion as brutal as possible.....

Thank y'all in advance.....shalom!!!!

@lade, with ur experience in autos, will like to know when and where did Peugeot get it wrong....
Can remember while growing up as kids we will all rant about how our first vehicles will be 505, 504 etc.
What happened?

@timifakay,
Wetin go land between 05-07 outlander, 4runner or highlander.

nurey:


If the tough conditions is associated with scraping ground and flooded muddy road it's advice you find something with a high ground clearance.

CRV, Element, RAV4, outlander, Sportage, Tucson, Xtrail, Qashqi

@ nurey, is it fair to say then that Highlander may not be that ok for "a not too good" road like the young man noted....
