One good thing about the north is that it has good and smooth roads.

You are right. I will keep in touch for the Lr3. We can get sponsors for Kebbi to Tripoli desert storm.

Boss at the top. Well done chief.
What should be my budget for land Rover discovery sir. I can't afford the Tokunbo but a good local used. But for maintenance I am ready at any amount. Any car from your recommendation is ok. My budget is N4m mac sir

Lr3, the unknown hero. I will help you look for one. We will be organising the 2nd off road competition this year between Elegushi shoreline to Eleko. A wonderful driving experience and the Lr3 is rugged for the terrain. Prepare

My oga dey fear to drive again sir.

Lai lai. I tried recently to go to Abuja and ended at Owo and returned back to Lagos. The roads are not friendly. The rains from heaven came down and the visibility was zero. My night vision in the sports came up and I was surprised 😮

Autojosh, long time. I thought you were in the abroad. As a of most of the vehicles listed, I will say that the writer is wrong. The Gl450 Mercedes balloons is 45k two years ago. So I don't understand where he got the information from. As for the Range Rovers, the LR3 has no such problems he described. In fact it's one of the best of the models. If the Sports is OK on his list, then the Lr3 should be very okay as they both share the same engine, gear and drive line. All the German cars mentioned here are fuel related issues and they cannot survive even with the current fuel sold by Dangote. The 2015 range rover is the sweetheart of all and the likely issues are created by managers fortunate to own the brand. Range rover owners are supposed to be directors and not the managers that drives it around. A common issue is the towing. Because of the full time 4x4, you can only truck it by a flat bed van but alas, you see it dragged on the road. That is the beginning of the end of the car until you spend millions for the driveline. Let the twitter update his knowledge as to the reasons for their failure.

Good day folks, there are too many fake Mobil 1 and Castrol extended performance in the market. Groundnut oil has better resistance than these oils. They're cheaper than the original ones. Go through Jumia and the price will determine its usefulness. Be careful before you find oil in your water coolant can

Unfortunately you know nothing of Igbuzor sons and daughters. Keep your mouth to the good and bad people of your community, that is if you know anything about your own people.

Are you denying Fred Ajudua, a long serving prominent Ibusa citizen whose wife was a member of the House of Assembly in Asaba. Who else is greater than him in the community? He has trained many people in his long serving activities. If you have achieved what he had done for himself and his community, come forward.

My friend returned back to Nigeria with his oyibo wife and children. Six months later, the wife was approached by smart guys who offered her to be the head teacher of their school. She accepted and automatically the school status changed and it became a foreign school and the fees increased and it was now a British international standard. And parents sent their children there. I believe that it is the parents who carried chairs on their heads to school that are paying for their children to be in that school and similar schools.

ElevationD:


No.

Ibusa is the same as Igbuzor. Ibusa corrupted form by the British from its original name Igbuzor.

Igbuzor has prominent sons namely: ex Senator, Barr. Peter FNwaoboshi the indefatigable Prof Patrick Utomi, founder of the Lagos business school, Professor Fidelis Oditah and Mr Peter Okocha a shipping magnate popularly known by his business name Crismatel, Obi (Prof) Chike Onwuachi, etc.

Igbuzor is an enjoyment town with great musicians like Ogbogu Okonji, Agility Okonji, Nwanze Nwabuwa (AKA Nwanze Nwagbodi) and Uche Nwalama. You go dance tire. Ogbogu Okonji by far remains the most prominent of them all, as one his songs has been played all over the nation for many years in clubs, restaurants, hotels, homes, etc.

What about football? They had Kingsley Obiekwe, a 1996 Atlanta Olympic Gold medalist in football; the late Peter Anieke of the Green Eagles; Emmanuel Olisadebe who naturalized and featured for Poland in 2002 and 2006 editions of the FIFA World Cup tournaments.

Igbuzor is a place for enjoyment every weekend. No end to enjoyment since I knew the town. Now they have grown covering both sides of the highway leading to Ogwashi uku. Land no cheap there o. iralty university by the Navy is situated in Igbuzor. There’s peace, safety and security in Igbuzor.

Igbuzor people, I hope say I don introduce una small here. Make una clap for me o.

The most prominent citizen of ibusa is Fred Ajudua. Someone who scammed the ex COAS millions in prison. That is a great man. Don't be ashamed to say the truth. No full clap for you 👏

You have started again, wetin Catholic Church, and Catholic priest do you?

Wetin the newly elected Pope Leo do you ooooooo

Where is Keneking ooooooo

I beg wetin pope dey do with pharmacy? All these people wey go tell us that Jesus is the healer and will sneak abroad for check up, God is watching them. One of them went out as our Doctors nor sabi anything only to be told that the drugs he needs to buy is sold less than 1k in Lagos. He flew to the USA to get checked up. He was ashamed of the labs in Nigeria.

The first question is why was he not informed that his vehicle documents will soon expire. Someone is collecting N200 for Sms notifications without doing the needful. Imagine all the ed vehicles charged that amount and doing nothing about it except sharing it among themselves. A lot of motorists are now getting new number plates in neighbouring states because of the failure to notify. I got an Sms notification from Osun State that my vehicle papers has expired. Lagos should do the needful.

Does that make Oba of Benin a deputy to Almighty God? Or does he make him superior to Emir of Kano?

The influence that Emir of Kano weighing today in Nigeria, Oba of Benin doesn't have 1/10 of it.

When the British deposed the Oba of Benin at the era that Nigeria was not in existence, no one could sit on his throne, not even his son until he died 17 years later. The Sultan of Sokoto and Emir of Kano has been deposed by Abacha and Ganduje easily and replaced by others. Benin Empire is the only kingdom where the next king is known on the day he is born. That they banished the Oba did not make his son to take over the throne, he waited till his father died 17 years later in the era of the British rule before he could be coronated. In the Bible, only Judah had papa and pikin kingship, Israel never had the privilege. So those of you that looked down on Benin should note that Judah was just one tribe and Israel had 11 tribes. Size nor be power. The Ark of God will soon be returned by the thieves in Britain and and our current Oba fought the government over the place to host his property and he defeated the governor. He is already very rich and will soon be richer than Elon Musk when the British return the artefacts that they stole from his fathers.

Seun:
Hello Guys,

I'm throwing this question to you because it's very important. Every time I ask, "how is Nairaland?" I'm told that it is fine. If I ask what are the challenges I'm told there are none.

So I need to talk to you guys directly about what you think is going on and what you want us to do. I have not had the confidence to make major changes on Nairaland. I have a little confidence now because of AI.

What are your complaints, your challenges, your issues. What are the things that can drive people away and need to be nipped?

Speak your mind, but don't be rude. Thanks.

Let the car talk section be for discussion. Not for selling cars

The era of good Force Pro are over. I recall when the police came to my office in Ikeja with a search warrant and I looked at the warrant and the address was no 30 instead of 36b. I told them that it was a wrong address and no 30 is further down the road. The leader of the team took biro and corrected the error and wrote 36b and I told him that it has been voided by his alterations and he should go back and get a fresh warrant. They were still at the door and they were 5 officers. I locked the door and they started hitting the door and called for back up. I called the Force Pro then Young Are a men of blessed memory that his boys want to raid a media. He asked for the station and I told him Area F. He told me to follow them when the back up arrive. I eventually followed them and he has already called them and when I got there, the DPO that sent 10 cops to my office was very courteous and jokingly asked who is that man that did not allow his boys to do their job and I told him that na his boy without a gun. We finally resolved the matter without any incentive given to them. This was in 2004, then we had Haz Iwendi, Isreal, Olakpe, Ighodalo and Mba. Finest of the best. I recall Jimoh Mooshood displayed 5 hausa boys as killers of Oshiomohole's secretary in Benin and that they will be charged to court. Till now, the accused have entered voice mail. It is a difficult task to defend the police but carefully is the word.

Please I need comparison between the Toyota venza 2013 and the Lexus RX 350 2010.

Reliability (Based on everyday use)
Performance (Driving experience/Driving Style)
Practicality (Ease of maintenance and repairs)
Fuel Economy/Mileage
Vehicle Endurance (Ability to take some abuse)

They are the same

Lies. They have been recovering cars before e-ECMR. The uned car has no ecmr

I tire for them.

after catching Amanda cheating, I begged her not to leave me because I was ready to forgive her. She didn't forgive me for catching her; she left me

The bolded got me rolling on the floor.


.Hahahahahahahahaha !!!

come and see funny story

Paul was persecuting the church and after conversion and with the holy ghost he was still persecuted. It is a life time consequence. Avoiding the crime is the only alternative.

Jonathan1994:
What do you think about the automatic transmission in the Range Rover?

It depends on what is the issue. The earlier models was a 6 speed type for which you can transmit to 6 at 145miles per hour and the 8 speed type on the newer models, I tried it on Kano Zaria road and I quickly realised that I am still young and my next new wife is still in her father's house, so I respected my self 😀 😄 😉

I currently drive a Honda Accord 2003. I'm looking for a place I can get car loan and swap to this VW at 2012 and pay back with enough time (1-2 years payment plan). Any idea anyone?

pointblank247:
thanks bro, but why are people putting fear into me.

Nothing to fear.

sultaan:
Not unless they reduce the tariff and levy down to around 15-20% combined the current 100% will not let the country advance.

Those who benefit complain of us using foreign reserve to import cars, but everything is down due to the overreaching tendencies of customs.

Customs should only inspect not dictate or collect duties, if anything is not inspected in 48 hours should be released, that takes away bureaucracy

Hmmm

sultaan:


x2 on that.

The NNPC fuel really destroyed a lot of fuel, only buy Dangote fuel

Can the car rise again?

This is the car season. Our fuel that has been destroying the car since 2005 has now been phased out. That fuel made them shut down in Nigeria. Dangote to the rescue

komekn:


Different folks and Different Strokes, l use my RR every day bad 🛣️ good road 🛣️ it goes non stop 🛑.

That's how it should be. Happy and merry new year to everyone. This year, we should be merry and eat and give thanks for that is our task on earth.

TT20:
Buy the 2006 to 2009 range rover sport (HSE) not SC. And upgrade it to a 2012. I drove one for 15 months. The only issue I had was overheating caused by a damaged thermostat. The first thermostat I bought was fake, until a guy from Ladipo brought the original, hit the thermostat slightly and installed it back. That was the end of the overheating issue. Very rugged car, no unnecessary sensors. I dropped my e70 (bmw) for it because of electric water pump issue.
Avoid all those 2014 upward, na wahala motor.

I nor gree accept the opinion. The 2014 upward follows the same pattern like the older version. Engine oil and cooling system. It will mess you up if you want to manage. If it says 5w30, it must be 5w30 of the top range. Range Rover is not for managers but Directors.

kingreign:




Even a Lexus GX470 cost way more than that. Get a Kia or honda or something similar. No go carry your money weave basket.

Haha.. Kia ke. Merry Christmas to you

temi4fash:


Boss,

Good afternoon,

Can you recommend a CVT oil for me? The addinol you recommended has been so wonderful but its no longer in the market.

Can you help recommend another one.

Thank you and looking forward to hearing from you

I will let you know after the holidays but if it's urgent, try to look for liqui moly cvt. Glad Addinol was good while it lasted.

ShegsA:
Hello @sooperrescue,

I just got a 2006 Range Rover Sport and noticed there's oil leakage when it is parked. I spoke to a technician and he mentioned that it's the gear oil leaking and the cause needs to be traced.

What do you advice?

Merry Christmas to all, the pump in the gear is most likely and the oil seal. If it is the pump, it will be resolved easily but the seal will bring down the gear

pointblank247:
Good day bro I have few questions and I hope you help me with answers.
1. which of the models of Range rover sport use V6 engine instead of V8.
2. My plan is to get model 2006-2009 to avoid complicated electrical things and costly maintenance.
Which do you suggest for me.
Thanks in advance

None except diesel version.

pointblank247:
Good day wonderful people. I plan to your club of Range rover owners. I need all the advice I can get on buying a Nigeria used Range rover. It's not my first car but it's my dream car.
Thank you in advance for your advice.

Welcome in advance to the exclusive club of beyond and above. We are not managers but directors and we strive to ensure that we give the brand what it needs for its performance. If you are buying below 2010 model, we have the right fuel for the brand thanks to Dangote. Oil is expensive or you get the imitation for cheap prices. Gear, engine and air suspension are the 3 components you need to check before you buy.

Saw something that was awesome. A 2011 Range Rover Sport bought brand new in Nigeria and rarely used for 13 years. The tear rubber scent is still there, we did the first oil change since 2011 yesterday and the oil filter was still as brand new. It's good to buy new cars..

Elzazzi:


It's true. The current Benin monarchy comes from Oduduwa. But Benin people dey always argue am.

Where did Oduduwa come from? Benin

Rangerover Sport 2014 rarely used in the country for sale. Just 52k kms. Price 25m negotiable. Everything is in order
