Hello house, please I'm looking for a Sienna that will convey my Family to Delta state, Isoko North to be precise after Ughelli, please reach out to me on 080 23 53 6207, you'll be conveying them from Ibadan.

I've gotten one, thanks y'all.

Shimmaa:
kindly suggest any ed reliable car I can get with 4m.

For what purpose domyou need the car for?

For Uber?
Your budget can inly get you a good Honda Accord DC, 2006/07, i4
Talk of interior design, engineering design, performance, cost of maintainance, performance, fuel efficiency... what more do you need in a car ?

For family and office purpose?
Simply go for a camry 2.2 drop light or pencil light. This car na machine... the strongest toyota I've ever known.

You will still have change left over for registration, full tank and bottles to wash the new car.

Come back and tank me

Honda accord isn't an option for me, I don't like camry pencil or droplight.

I'm buying for my wife to convey the kids to school.

Good evening bosses. I have a big Daddy 06 that I using at the moment with my own dealer plate number. I want to know if I can use it for uber/bolt. Although not full time. Just weekends.
Is it allowed?

Shimmaa:

With your budget you definitely have limited option.

Since it's for ur madam, your best bet is the camry 2.2, she may not like it because it's not fashionable but trust me that car can tolerate abuse, it's very fuel efficient but it's parts are quit expensive because it's widely sourced for and shares parts with the rx300 and Highlander 2003 model.

Nevertheless, a 2006 toyota matrix, but your budget won't get you a good one that will be trouble free. You'll have to spend additional 800 to 1m to bring it upto speed.

Kia rio.is another good ride, but getting a good one without over heating history is a major problem

You best bet still remains the camry 2.2.
It's a good ride for any class and terrain.

Think about it.

With 3.5m you'll get a near tokunbo

Lol, baba forget Nigerians will package nonsense for you in the name of car

I'm case you don't know you have also insulted yourself and demarketing yourself as well because you're also a Nigerian. Until we change our ways and manners and attitude about ourselves both in and out of this country Nigerian will never be okay.

For your information, some local used car are far better than the so-called tokunbo.

Haven't you seen where someone bought a tokunbo car and the engine knocked just after 200km drive? Some gear problem, some electrical and mechanical issues


Most of us have very bad maintenance culture, I can attribute it to poverty and poor government policies and enforcement but trust there are some of us who take our care like it's our body.

I just bought a BMW recently, and the guy was not even ashamed to say that the last time he carried out an.oil.changed was in July 2023, he even knew the date off hand. Can you imagine, 2yrs...

Last November I bought a local used 2017 Lx570 for a.client, mind you this client and his team of dealers (barandas).have been out for several momths insearch for a foriegn.ised b4 someone referred them to me, the local used I sold to them was inspected just once by their mechanic who said, "this is the only good LX I've seen so.far", oga run to the bank and effect payment."

So change your mindset.

You want a good car, have a deep pocket and pray to meet a car dealer with.comscience who is good in his.craft. and you too you've to know what you want, like Shimmaa now, he and his wife haven't made a decision of what they want.

So @.shimmaa first go back and think about what your wife really likes, from there your.dealer Will take up with your budget.

I don't have any suggestions, that's why I kept mute. But advising someone to go for that? For his wife? That's way off for me.

You should be liken to that person the yorubas call "alabosi"... "putting mouth in a matter that either doesn't relates to you or have knwoledge about yet you want to be the main actor. My mum will call you "amela" aka, "amebo". Lol

My friend better keep quiet and learn since you do not know or have anything reasonable to contribute to the OP's dilemma

Okay, I should add my own money and buy him a 2024 model car abi? Or you want to go steal a more recent model car and sell to him for 4m, Well done sir.

That's how tj referred one lady to me last year who wanted a camry muscle 2008 model with 5m, if I be bad person or one of those dealers who are only out for their stomach sake I would have allowed her to buy the dead car with converted to pin gear instead of 13pin...

Lol, bro you're funny . The last time I checked, it's a public forum, I have the right to air my view on any topic or post I so desire. You saying I'm amebo just shows the kind of person you are, so petty.

It's you that should keep shut if you don't have better suggestions to give. Initial commentors have already advised the OP he won't get anything reasonable for that amount, you carry am dey go Camry 2.2, because of your own selfish reasons.

You even said it's his best option for now like seriously?? Nawa o. Smh

Kaymaxi2222:

Big Daddy what year abeg
Honda Civic which year abeg... un no read where him.say Honda is not an option?

Mind you 03/04 big daddy no be market again, na 05/06 people dey like buy nowadays.

Also, camry 2.4 engine is the worse engine toyota has, so I'll challenge you to.come up with one with good engine that can sell for 4m or even 4.5m, I'll rush to buy it and resell

Nezzjnr:

You no sabi motor

The camry 2.2 is far far better than it's junior brother 2.4.

It's more rigid, more rugged, stronger, more durable, better 2nd hand value and best seller ever after 23.to 26 years.

Importers prefer to.ship in the 2.2 camry in than the 2.4.

Have you wonder why uniform men like the car!
That thing you call a 26yr old is.liken to a catapillar and very fuel efficient

Put 10 units camry 2.2 and 10 units of 2.4 camry in 1 car lot for sale... you would have sold all 10 units of the 2.2 oit b4 selling 5 units of the 2.4

It's my line of business so you don't need to argue with me

Lol... na u funny , yes na amebo u b because u choose to.tag me in your comment and attack my opinion.

So you even read where other spectators told him he won't get something good with his budget yet you criticise the one who gave a honest suggestion and reasons for his suggestion. How ungratful people.can be.

Talking about selfish interest, did you see where I asked him to me based on my suggestion? Oga park well jare and jeep.quet because you don't have anything reasonable to say

Not true.

Those 04 cars downwards are no longer lucrative to import because of the duty.

Which importer will be happy to spend 2 million to clear Pencil light? How much e wan sell am?

You'll mostly see those cars on the Nigerian Used market, or those smuggled through Land borders.

Nezzjnr:

He may be right about the value sha.

But if I had 4 million, and Pencil light was my only option, I go use the money do another thing.

No need for all these write-up.

You be agent and you have the car at your disposal and you need to get rid of the car to see your percentage.

You even said it in your post that the wife may not like it. You want him to buy something the wife won't like? Is that not a recipe for disaster in the family? In this era where husband dey kpai wife, wife is cutting husband gbola and hands. Abeg o!

The OP already said he's not interested in your suggestion, so rest the matter.

It's as simple as that bro. I'll rather be using public transportation.

What I meant was, an importer would prefer if.given the chance.

Yes you're right, the high cost of duty has caused the entry of these cars through the back doors and it's paying off because custom will.not even disturb you.

Nevertheless, that doesn't cancel the professional engineering work put on that car making it a better choice with its counterpart 2.4
