Try to update ur app and then upgrade your kyc. Tier 3 should alow you transfer max of 5m per day, but the merchant tier is limitless.

Congratulations to you OP civic 08 is generally a great car. I believe the guy that finally bought your car can still revive it with the right and trustworthy jobs (mechanics and car electrician aka rewire). As the saying goes, a vehicle will continue to ride unless burnt or recked in an accident.

After all the chunks of recommendations I got from this thread.

I first decided to sell as scrap and it was being priced cheaply. The highest offer I got was 700k which was pretty annoying.
The new Kareem I met advised I changed one sensor like that and for the first time in almost a year, the car moved fairly well.
Long and short, I sold it for 1.8M yesterday.
Quite below the amount I've spent but who cares?
Something that was being priced as scrap for 500k, 700k? grin
I feel so happy I'm finally over this depression.
I met a nairalander by the way who sold his Civic 08 for me and it's been an amazing experience ever since.
God bless Nairaland. grin

I just quickly went through your first thread and I must say I'm more scared now than I was few minutes ago.

Since last week friday 23 May, 3025, I've been moving from one car stand to another just looking at cars before making a choice as I'm about yto buy my first car.

My fear is I dont want to spend 15-17m on a packaged car cos it seem most car dealers now package locally used cars as tokunbo just to make more gain.

Right this minute, I'm with a mechanic I'm going to pay to inspect a car for me but oga is using style to other cars to me. It is obvious he's after how much he can make from my purchase than what he could make over time as a mechanic and for this, I'm not going to rely on whatever he says because just like the Kazeem you paid for inspection, he might end up making a deal with any dealer I decide to go with.

Conclusively, I'm glad you got a better deal on the sale and congrats on your new car.

What happened to that car may just be camshaft or crankshaft sensor, sometimes these sensors systems don't identify them during diagnoses, our problem in Nigeria automobile space are wrong mechanics. Your experienced doesn't mean Honda's are bad just like other cars the way Nigerian negativate one bad experienced to the entire brand, pray for a better luck next time and stay away from Engr Kazeem

Please, let's all be mentioning names of Niaraland car dealers that sold good cars for more recognition and patronage.
The ones that sell good cars should always be mentioned and promoted so others can know them more and benefit.
He's not a car dealer though.

He only sold his personal car to me.

OralB
is his moniker.

It's funny how people package a burden and drop it off on other people's head, then of on to be happy about it, that their burden has been lifted off their shoulders.

I bought the car 2M, spent above 700k on it.
I didn't sell the buyer a burden, I was very clear about the situations of the car and he's a car expert himself.
Infact he spotted the actual reason the car hasn't been going beyond 25KM/h right there.
So, no, unlike what was sold to me, I didn't sell him a packaged lemon.

If you actually did that, then I apologize for my earlier statement.

On a side note, didn't you think you could have given the car another shot, as the buyer had been able to spot the exact reason why the car wasn't going beyond that speed?

While that's true.
Saying 1.8M transaction isn't possible on pay is absolutely funny.
When I've done double of that amount countless times.

I thought of the latter but I was already burnt out. Infact while my brother posted it in a group on Facebook and stated the faults, most people with similar experiences were saying it was a small issue that could be fixed. I just wasn't ready for any more stress especially since I've already bought another one for my mum.
