You said previous owner put 71k miles in 2022, he then went ahead to put over 200k miles after importing it. How sure are you of these claims?

What if the instrument cluster (speed clock) was changed?
I don't anybody can easily put 200k miles in 2 years in Nigeria, but its very very rare and very difficult to achieve such mileage with such car still looking clean at least from the pictures you posted here.
I ran the VIN check to know the actual mileage at auction, and it was 71k miles. it was imported by the last owner in dec 2022, arrived early 2023 according to the import duty and clearing papers with me. Is it possible the odometer has been tampered with? The car is clean and first body.

Toyota are known to have longevity. The car will perform excellently well as long as its been maintained very well by its previous owners. As for that high mileage, it could be highway mileage which is a very good thing or it could be that the vehicle was used for fleet or commercial purpose abroad.

I did a check on the Vin number, and I found out it was 71k miles at auction, the previous owner imported the car late 2022, he put over 200k miles on it in two years, that gave me the clue it might be highway miles, I maybe wrong though.

high mileage doesn't translate to a bad car especially if it was maintained well... you can get a low milage car and it'd be a lemon... don't be negative minded about it yet... a car that drove abuja to ibadan definitely isn't a bad car.. so keep observing
Thanks for your input boss. I appreciate it.

Hello bosses in the house!
So I bought high mileage car unknowingly, Camry 2014 with over 270k miles. I saw the ad from a dealer in Abuja, I contacted my friend in Abj who linked me with a mechanic he trusts to go check the status of the car. He certified the car and told me the engine was okay though he noticed it had been worked on and also the transmission switches fine, that it only needed a few touches and would be ready to be on the road to Ibadan. He didn't mention anything about the mileage, he just confirmed the status of the engine and the rest. I paid the dealer and arranged for the mechanic to do his check-up and drive to Ibadan. Now days after I got my car, I started reading more about cars and their problems, I saw many disclaimers about buying high-mileage cars, and I started thinking I made a huge mistake, and that I had wasted money. No major fault yet, because I have only done short distances and barely drive it. What should I expect when I start making long distances? And your honest opinions and experiences about high mileage cars. Thank you.

From my experience after using four different phones from different xiaomi brands, xiaomi devices have a short life span. On the good side, they're very customizable ( for people interested in that). After two years just dump the phone or dash it out because it'll frustrate you.
see cap 😂, well it's your experience

Foreign Affairs / Re: What Is Hamas, What Is Happening In Israel And Gaza Strip, And Other Questions by zainkay: 2:43pm On Oct 10, 2023
Guyman01:
A lot of people who were earlier sympathetic to Hamas are beginning to change their minds after seeing videos of hundreds of people attending a music festival were being shot dead in a hail of gunfire and many of them are tourists from several different countries.
Putting babies taken hostage in dogs cages and filming it is horrible to a point that many have concluded that Hamas action goes against Islamic ethics during war
Those babies in that video are Gazan kids. The media propangada has eaten whatever left of your brain.

Money doesn’t necessarily bring happiness ,it’s just important to have it to solve basic problems. but you think it does cause there’s probably a lot of stuffs you want to do with money.

Well think about it this way , after getting all the money and you’ve done everything you’ve always wanted , you start to feel empty ,it’s like you’ve seen it all so there’s no excitement anymore , u begin to get tired of luxury easily.

That’s why you see the likes of Elon musks , Dangote , Otedola , money doesn’t seem to excite them at all. But they understand that it important to have it.
This is very easy to say for those already succesful.

Despite our praises for Puig, he is grossly underrated.

One of the key passes he gave to one of our players in the Juventus match was orgasmic.

Puig is good and he needs nurturing.
we can imagine the level of improvement we would have witnessed if he was the one with those number of games Pedri had.. It's a great disrespect to his talent and performances to start anyone ahead of him in that midfield..

Woah ! Just came online and I saw y'all are bashing koeman already. Pointless.

I'm just looking for those blaming messi. Honestly judging by yesterday's match, I support 'the messi must leave' movement. Not because we don't need him but because I don't have the stomach to see messi waste is precious final years on a useless club ,under a useless manager.

Messi played well yesterday,but he can't do it all.

As for Puig, I hope yesterday's performance convinced all those saying the that ' Pedri is better than Puig'.

I'll say it again, Asides Messi , Puig is our most creative player.

As for Koeman, He's not the right guy to lead us out of this mess. If only he was flexible and open minded. But, Stubbornness is his problem.
They would never learn, how could any right thinking cules say pedri is better because he can play in multiple positions, neglecting the glaring qualities of Puig which the team badly needs, with his exploits at the end of last season, he is supposed to be the second name after Messi in the first 11 if we have a coach, I spit on Puig haters, no way that pedri boy would be better than Puig.. One of them even said pedri performance against juve first leg is better than all Puig best performances for Barcelona, Morons

There is no way Coutinho should start over Puig

Just watch this...less than 30 mins...
It's your opinion, but you guys need to drop the hate agenda, I love cou, your lots keep mum about his performances playing in his preferred position before the injury, but now ranting about his bad performances when played out of position..we all know what the problem is, not Messi, not coutinho, not any other player..

Everybody wants puig, but would I shit on coutinho because of puig? No.

Shile981:
I don't intend to mislead anyone with what I am about to say but I want to make my opinion known. We as mortals can't control or decide our destination after leaving this world if at all there is a life after death. None can bodly say he was aware of his creation and had the chance to choose his gender, place of birth, character, belief e.t.c. Why will going to heaven or hell be the choice of the creatures and not the creator since we are just handiwork? I can tell you that it is not your choice if you are good or bad if their is a supernatural forces controlling mortals! Take for example, Moses and Pharaoh in the Bible. God sent Moses to Pharaoh. Same God hardened the heart of Pharaoh and the Christians, in their gatherings Sunday School, Bible study, will blame Pharaoh for being stubborn. Was it not God that use is power to control his attitude? My point is no matter how hard you try or what effort you made, God will put you in heaven or hell according to his own will.
Have been searching answer to this,Sadly, I our religious folks don't have answer too, if I could get a logical explanation to this, I will renounce my atheism..

If they like, they should commence operation rhinoceros giggle, the struggle continues.
I see dumb folks who ask, "SARS has since been dissolved, why are people still protesting?"
How much could possibly be unraveled out of all the unimaginable deeds that have gone down on this side of the planet? It's all a fertile soil where all forms of lawlessness and fvckery grow, waters of innocent blood, valleys of dry bones, clouds of terror and air of wickedness.
The big offices are filled with predators and evil men who feed on wickedness. Big men in big cloths which is stained within and without with unseen blood of innocent people. They purchase expensive cars with the flesh of the people they govern, build mansions home and abroad with the souls of the masses and their expensive trips are bankrolled with the painful tears of their subjects. Intimidating the vulnerable masses is their only source of joy; vampires who suck the blood of others.
The graves are filled with the bones of innocent souls. People whose only offences were finding themselves in the wrong country. Children who died of poverty and never lived old enough to be conscious of their own existence. Kids who did not live to play with their new toys, fathers who never lived to see their unborn kids, talents who did not live long enough to be celebrated, innocent people hit by stray bullets from trigger happy policemen, great minds who were cut short because of greediness and sheer wickedness of their corrupt leaders, newly-weds who never lived to enjoy their honeymoon, people who left their delicious foods halfway on the table but never returned to finish them.
The innocent blood keep crying day and night, their voices could be heard on clear nights. All what they keep crying for is justice.

If we spend the rest of our days protesting against evil and sending the souls of bloody tyrants below the ground level, that would be the purest form of patriotism any race can achieve, and history will for ever be kind to us.
You will live long!!
