I purchased my first car in Ibadan in 1984 or so.

It was a Suzuki FJ something. I paid N150 I think and took it home, it had a burnt piston. I took the engine apart, learned how to replace the piston and took the head to a machine shop. It was a two stroke deal and I had lots of fun in that thing.

Sold it to an Hausa Man in Sabo, Ibadan and purchased a Honda Civic, I forgot how much I paid for it but sold it no an aspiring juju musician in Ibadan shortly there after.

I bought my first car at 32, a Honda Oddysey which cost 1m. 1 paid cash and i`m so much enjoying it. fortunately i have an official car so the pressure on my ride aint much.i`m contemplating giving it to my wife as soon as she can drive.
