Is It Advisable? Nairaland Expertise Please Advise by 7pages(m): 8:14pm On May 21, 2020
After struggling and hustling to get a job all to no avail, a friend assisted me with 300k to start anything but what came to my mind first is transport.


I have survey on how to help these market women and men convey their goods to their various places and I discovered is more convenient with the service fee, so I asked my uncle, my mom's immediate bro who is a mechanics since 16yrs ago. He said he had one Nissan 1.6 that's owned by one late woman and the thing is in his shop, he said they want to sell it 250,000 but is negotiable. He said the car is faultless


Please is it advisable I go for the Nissan 1.6 as golf was what I've in mind. Please advise me

Go with a competent mechanic to inspect before paying whichever you settle for
The golf 3 is very good and strong, but a nissan primera/almera 90's series is also not bad. Just ensure you avoid buying a car with a rebuilt or smoking engine

Comes in both, but for that type of transport business you intend to do and amount available manual is better

Its a nissan primera, if the engine is still in good shape its not a bad car at all. But be aware that car was converted from the way the wiper is positioned and converted cars come with its own special type of problems because its not done well most times.

Poster below me has said it all

Wish you luck

First, I will advice not to buy from your 'trusted' uncle. No pun intended. My opinion though is based on a sad experience. Relationship doesn't go well with business.
Secondly, get to work and search for gulf 3, nissan sunny, almera, primera, mazda 323 all of 90's model. Get a mechanic, preferably a friend to assess it before payment. Remember, you are your most trusted mechanic. Shine your eyes well.
Thirdly, don't be in hurry.
Good luck.

If you are serious about that transportation business you should be aiming at buying Korope (Suzuki every) or a wagon not that Nissan hatchback.

so look for primera wagon, Kia Rio wagon 2005 below, Mazda etc

300k doesn't matter he would get a working unit of Suzuki 1.3 or daihatsu equivalent for far less if he knows where to look.
