As long as prospective buyers continue to encourage such sharp practices, a culture that is berreft of sanctity, it will continue to undermine a fair business process. I find such conduct highly objectionable, and once I encounter such, I immediately withdraw my interest.
Imagine someone demanding settlement as high as ₦500,000 merely because you posted a car on a "free forum." The settlement is for what? Agency that you were not angaged on or personal sales tax!!! Now, such ignoble acts are being paraded on nairaland too. I simply fail to understand the rationale behind the ideology, which is fast becoming a useless norm. Just hustlers trying to reap off prospective buyers.

For me, I categorically state that I will not engage in or entertain any form of settlement, regardless of the amount, even if it is as little as ₦5,000. And such practices should be wholly rejected by every intending buyer!
If you do not have direct access to the vehicle that allows you to mark up, then you simply do not have access — no amount of coercion or informal arrangement will change that fact. It started with agents and rent, and now it's moving to car purchases.

It's the effrontery for me sha, N200k on a so called distress sale, on a car with a bad gear, obviously badly maintained engjne.......and you still want to milk from another's impending woes!!! I fear who no fear you.....

Good initiative......

Really?
We'll, there's no button to press twice. That's the only reading there, too.

I'll check again

It is the display (DISP) button on the steering wheel.
@aieromon, has given you a very good idea how it can be done.

Good morning,

Apologies for derailing the thread.

That is not the mileage reading of the vehicle but rather the trip reading as indicated by the "Trip A." Press it twice and the actual mileage would be displayed.

Only xle trims have 2.5l , normal camry is 2.4, by normal, I mean CE and LE, not to sure for sport edition

Accord has greater horsepower and there for more speed, similar fuel economy but the camry can take a beating. Nor carry bad fuel near Honda o.....the engine nor go take am o

Toyota has a boring interior, well the xle i4 trim has some luxury features like heated seats, leather interior and a few others but aesthetics, Honda is better

The ball and socket t issue is not really common with the 2010 Honda accord

Your position on the engine variant is absolutely incorrect. Engine specs are the same across board and the 2.5mL engine was introduced in the 2010 models (07-09 models were fitted with the 2.4L engines except on V6s) also with 6 gears against 5.
The camry has a better resale value and can tolerate abuse better than the accord, however, the accord offers a better ride quality and offers better aesthetics.
If you are one that is keen on maintainance culture, and reselling is not a major consideration, I would suggest the highest trim of the Honda accord i.e EX-L ( with the i4 engine variant) but if you can't pay attention to required routine maintenance, settle for the camry. If you can get the XLE in i4, good.

Are there slightly cheaper alternatives?

Well yes, but not as durable as Panasonic in my opinion. LG, Midea and Hisense are alternatives I have short term experiences with.

rammyblog:
Hello guys.. I have been reading the thread and it's quite Insightful, but I have a question

Which AC will you recommend, 1.5hp(I am on band C rn, so power consumption is not a big deal)

Panasonic, if you can afford it. It is usually priced above other brands and known to draw light more. But the durabilility,efficiency and easy of maintenance is notable. If you chose to, settle for made in Malaysia models. Cheers

@ bolded is from the place of inferiority complex many of you embrace because of low self esteem.

Below is what happened just few days ago in England.

https://www.independent.co.uk/tv/news/labour-mp-mike-amesbury-punch-video-cheshire-b2636907.html


Same England you think their citizens are better and developed than you o. Smh.

Many of you need to get to that place that you will know that if someone has a white skin doesn't mean he or she is better than you.

That's someone you believe is better than you beating a member of his constituent in the full public glare o.

Woah! And you deduced all that from my comment. Lol. It is either you are overly assumptious or have an unresolved underlying personal issues with the Western populace?Maybe. Cos I fail to understand how you miraculously cooked that up when it was not on the menu. #sighs#
Well, I am not responsible for how you chose to interpret my comment.
As much as you tried to manipulate what i said, you did a good job of attempting to mask the salient points posited. I wonder what actually touched a soft spot that brought about inferiority complex, white skin et al.... I was very intentional when I chose to say "a developed country" and not mention England or the US? It was because I anticipated this exact line of misconstrued reaction.

Anyways, you clearly failed to grasp my point which is the emphasis on there being a need for CONSEQUENCES!!! And since you were so magnanimous to give an example, I will return the favour by referencing your example:

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/articles/c6244gk9d4po.amp

Yes it happened as you so much wanted to prove, but I find it suspiciouly convenient that you were silent on the fact that there were consequences and it didn't take forever to manifest. So I say it again "People do not exercise caution bacause they believe there are no consequences or they can escape the consequences. When consequences are dealt out, people act with decorum"

Cheers

Charge n bail lawyer.

Cybercrime act does not apply here because the complainant in this case made the idiot aware he was being recorded and stated why he was recording the idiot .

The idiot did not object to being recorded and gave his explicit approval of the recording.

The complainant made the recording as evidence to insulate himself of any wrong doing as the complainant's job performance and rating would have been negatively affected by a bad review. Secondly , the complainant felt the need to record the video fearing for his own personal safety and to provide evidential proof of no wrong doing on his part and to present video evidence of the idiot acting as an idiot that he is.

The said video is why the complainant is able to secure his release from police detention after being falsely accused and arrested by the idiot. Without that video evidence, the complainant will most likely still be in police detention or at worse charged to court on trumped up allegations initiated by the idiot. That same video evidence was what made the Police IG to swing into action to ensure the victim in this case gets justice - a very rare occurrence in Nigeria .

The idiot is a narcistic pompous brat who thought he can bully just about anybody that he feels is lower than him.

So save your bullshit argument. It's such foolish legal advise that is now seeing the idiot now being arraigned in court. I pray you are part of his legal team so that your client can get convicted for assault, death threats and deliberately filing a false allegation .

Don't be an overzealous dolt trying to appear intelligent by half!

Are you sure you read the whole comment or you just jumped to a baseless uninformed conclusion! Cos it seems you were just so eager respond and ended up displaying some sort of "factory default stupidity."
You repeated what I posited yet contradicting the same position. After blabbling, you now say elxactly what I emphasized on!

Just for the benefit of doubt that you lack comprehension skills, my point in simply and please this time read slowly, is that the recording evidence the bolt driver circulated is valid and tenable if prosecution is pursued because it meets the exceptions of the cyber crime act and the right to privacy as guaranteed by the constitution; and that the lawmaker cannot punch a hole in the evidence under the veil of having being unlawfully recorded because he actually proved he was aware he was being recorded and even dared the driver nothing will happen.

So your point axactly is I'm amused at the confidence at which you showed your foolishness. Go back and read, and this time slowly to the end.

Charge and bail ignoramus.....read they will not read and then come and be making a fool of themselves in public!

This should actually be a litmus test for those that often times feel they are above the law and can get away with anything.

FreeStuffsNG:
Pride and anger can ruin in a second what you have labored for in years. Smh.

I understand the gravity of his mistake but let us please temper justice with mercy since he has apologized and shown remorse. He is a relatively young guy and will learn a serous lesson from this his misadventure and misbehavior.

I pray that his victim(s) will find it in their hearts to forgive him. Sincerely, it's a very difficult place to be when you have ever experienced the humiliation and injustice similar to what that Bolt guy suffered in his hands and the mere thought that others may have previously suffered same or even worse form of injustice from him but got no justice.

I hope many others have learnt from how pride and arrogance brought this young man down and will not boast about in their wisdom, might and riches.

Even though we should pursue peace and forgiveness with all men, it is thinking such as this that has contributed to where we currently find ourselves as a nation.

People do not exercise caution bacause they believe there are no consequences or they can escape the consequences. When consequences are dealt out, people act with decorum. Would he have dared this if he was in a developed country like the ones we are dreaming of striving to become? The "do you know who I am" denigrating syndrome that has befallen many of the citizenry.

Give men power and watch their true nature reveal itself

Armaggedon:
you lie bro. Nothing warranted the recording the time he did. He was just abusing him verbally which is very uncharitable but also what everyman will do IN HIS HOUSE if he feels his guest is rude. Taking record of him at that point and making commentary in a relaxed voice at that point does not strike to me as a man who doesn't intended to provoke more actions. No one is exonerating the lawmakers pugnacious behaviour but the cap man isn't innocent either.

It is good to argue but it is better to argue what you are well versed on..

Kindly go back to my initial comment to be sure you even understood what I was talking about! Recording someone indiscriminately is a violation of their fundamental human rights.

The legal framework around video recording without consent in Nigeria is primarily governed by the Cybercrimes Act of 2015 and various provisions in the Nigerian Constitution and state laws.

When a person records a video of another in a public space and shares it, the video creator violates the other person’s right to privacy as protected by the Constitution.

Howbeit, there are exceptions which include- Personal Safety i.e recording may be justified if it is necessary to protect oneself or others from imminent harm or illegal activities, such as threats of violence or extortion.

Now to the crux if the matter as I had outlined earlier which you obviously failed to comprehend, bothers on the issibility of the recording as evidence. It has nothing to do with whether there was provocation or not ( and even if there was provocation, the law maker, in law, resulted to "self help" which has legal implications!). So on the contrary, you are very wrong, the bolt driver can reliably claim he did the recording because he had reasons to suspect threats to his safety and existence, and the Lawmaker did a very good job at establishing the drivers fears!

This is a public forum and people get educated and learn both consciously and subconsciously so do not assert knowledge you are not grounded on. While you are entitled to your opinions, you are not entitled to your facts!

And before you respond, which I believe you would in a bid to win an arguement rather than learn from it, I would advice you read a bit on;
1. The cybercrimes act of 2015
2. The evidence act of 2011 and
3. The constitutional right to privacy and its exceptions.

Cheers

Armaggedon:
your argument is trash. Recording someone in his house is illegal and being allowed to walk away with such recording proves the reps member is not troublesome. It doesn't work that way. In law, it's not just about what happened but the cause. The bolt driver might end up getting into more trouble.

You really don't understand how the law works. There would have been a slight controversy if the law maker was unaware of the recording and could actually attack it as evidence, but he goofed when he not only acknowledged the recording but dared the victim to do it and nothing would happen.
