1. Owning a car makes you feel like you’re finally a real person . You can just go to places whenever you feel like it . You don’t need to ask anyone, or wait for a bus, or jump okada or walk. You can just drive there. In your own car.

2. You have a long list of new s in your phone. for example, Wale mechanic, Tunji beater, Seun rewire

3. Cars are expensive . The gas, you were ready for. The payments, you budgeted for. But when you own a car, one day it will start doing something funny—and not funny ha-ha—and you’ll realize that it’s your problem, because it’s your car. When the mechanic calls to tell you what’s wrong and what it will cost to fix, you’ll realize that you’ve now entered a stage of life where large sums of money will suddenly and without warning be required to simply maintain your current standard of living.

4. You'll always want to go out even when there is no where to go to.

5. For the first few weeks or months or years, you will always drive with perpetual fear of LASTMA and Police even if your papers are okay. You know how they used to do - always finding invisible faults. sad

6. Your guys will always suggest somewhere to go just because there is a car. It will now comman be as if you are their driver.. angry

7. You become a flirt or gigolo. Always dropping and picking different females. Different shapes and sizes and heights and colours.

8. You will start feeling bigger than you really are. You will begin to underrate some people because they use Legediz Benz.

You can always enjoy your car absolutely far more better if you buy it "NEW"(tear rubber) regardless of the manufacturer or model.
An average of such vehicle might not visit any auto mechanic in ten years.
God bless Nigeria

When I bought my first car, I parked it at the police station because of the fear of thieves!!

The next day, I saw it at the checkpoint!

The Idi0ts told me they were helping me warm the car like tho I sent them message!!
