First of all, why do you want to venture into the business? For daily bread or just for fun? If for daily bread, then sell it and get a car suitable for the hustle, if for fun, then go ahead with the es330. opisco01: 5 Likes |

confusedworld17: I think for most people it is a conscious act, though a bit awkward. In case of a crash, and as a last minute decision to stop the car, which side do you think the driver will ram into an obstacle, his side or the passenger side? 1 Like |

joetem:You must have read through the early pages for you to know about ogunvic and you must have read through the latest ones to know he's no longer active here. It's highly unlikely that you will skip just the few pages containing the last days of ogunvic on this thread so come out clean. Are you a CID? SARS? EFCC? VIGILANTE? or a Victim looking for revenge By the way, the business is still profitable.. depends on your definition of "profitable" 3 Likes |

franksam2009:What have you been reading? Where did you get this information from? You people should stop confusing the “W” there for winter. It is “WEIGHT”. The 5w20 simply means the oil's viscosity at cold start is put at 5 for free flow of oil around the engine and the viscosity increases to 20 when engine reaches optimum temperature for added protection. What Dru23 is saying is right (dude has been acting normal for a while now). Some states in the US are hotter than Lagos is or even hotter than the northern part of Nigeria and most likely don't see snow falls. Car and oil manufacturers put all this things into consideration and put those cars through all manner of test (simulating all kinds of weather and driving conditions) before giving out recommendations. Have you considered the damage done on those cars with 20W50 oils when you start it in the morning? Or why do you think some cars have tapping sounds that goes away on cold starts? Most engine wears and tears happen in the morning and not necessarily from rigorous driving. I'm guilty of using 20W50 for my car (cos it's too late to switch back). I drive like a maniac and love using up all the horses in the engine, but on cold start, I don't rev the engine above 2,500 RPM until the engine reaches normal operating temperature. So bro, if you have a car that is sludge free and not abused, go with your manufacturers specified oil and coolant specs. Personally if I am on ehailing, I would use 10W40 for older high milage cars and not 20w50. It gives peace of mind on cold start, and perfect soundness when under stress. Caveat: You are only permitted to use 20W50 for rally cars with wider oil passage. The thicker oil viscosity (50) when hot is perfect for good protection (only for cars with wider oil passage channels). 5 Likes 2 Shares |

dru23:At bolded is not true. What do they use for some bikes, lawnmowers and 2 strokes engine? 20W50 is everywhere and not just Nigeria. I've even seen someone (can't remember the moniker)advertised a synthetic one here on Nairaland sef. 1 Like |

olusola2bello:I encountered them on that yaba axis last week Friday. My map lost GPS signal, started misbehaving and I ended up on a one way road. They intercepted me immediately and opened my car door before I had chance to lock it. The guy was talking to me like an angel. He asked if I ve being warned before for taking this one way and I told him no. He said then I don't have anything to be afraid of. I will just have to drive to their office with one of them to check if my no is in there system. If they don't find my no there, then I can go and I happily agreed. My riders( an old man and woman with their teenage daughter in front) begged them from now till eternity to let us go cos they are already very late for their engagement but they might as well be singing, so I agreed and drove off to their office like a good citizen to prove that my no is not in their system, but then an angel in the form of one guy around there who saw the whole thing happen frantically called my attention as i was about to drive off and told me in my native tongue(Igbo). He said "nwokem, isoro ndia ruo office ha, nwanne ha 'rie gi". Meaning "guy if you follow this ppl reach there office them go chop you die" immediately I heard that a tiny gunshot went off inside my head and my brain had to rest to Lagos Factory Settings. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

When we got to clinic road the guy asked me to divert to another road that probably leads to their office, I pretended to be deaf and continued on clinic road, he then reached for my car keys, turned off the engine and took my keys. He took out his phone immediately and started calling his ppl. Luckily for me, this happened in the middle of the road and my car was already causing a little traffic. Two police men around the corner rushed down to my car to know what was going on, I explained everything to them but it seemed that I might as well be talking to a barn door. They simply told me to take that car out of the center of the road, park it one side and settle with them(him), that was when I understood that I was strictly on my own. The guy gave me back my key to park my car properly. I then started my car and speed off immediately towards 3MB, the guy saw what was happening and went for my car keys again, this time I was ready for him, I gave him a heavy blow on wrist and it went limp fast, we started struggling for my car key till it broke with the ignition still on and one part of the key still inside the ignition. The guy saw what was happening and started looking for a way to jump out of the fast moving car, I had little mercy for him cause if he jumps at the speed am in, he may die so I slowed down a little and he jumped out immediately. Am sure he must have sustained some minor injuries. My riders who watched the whole thing go down started clapping for me as well other as road users who watched the whole show. I continued to VI, dropped off my riders and drove straight to my mechanic to remove the stuck key. Thankfully I have a spare which I always carry around with me in case of emergencies such as this.

stanuplane:Hmmmm, thank God for you. Me I am always fortunately fortunate, maybe because I am always at alert and on full time Ac. Last one was two days ago, was descending from TMB towards Ikoyi exit there was traffic. They maintained the two lane I did like I was going straight and bullied one car to join the lane and was about climbing only to see lasma men plenty there. One immediately jump in front of my car with that their chuku chuku I moved faster and he ran away because he thought I was gonna hit him, I now did zig zag from one lane to the other and they gave up. For my mind chaii, na so I for enter am. Wetin person eye dey see no be small 3 Likes |

^^^^Funny story As an uber driver, never joke with your central lock. NEVER If you approach a gathering of law enforcement thieves, wind up and use your lock, even if your AC isnt on If you park on the road for whatever reason, use your side mirror, wind up and use the DAMN BUTTON 8 Likes |
