I bought bmw 325i from a friend. After partial payment, I requested for the document so as to atleast drive around confidently, pending the transfer of ownership. I was told by this my friend (seller) that he bought the car from cotonou, beat the custom and had been using fake number plate. There is no single paper to show for it. Please, advice me on wht to do.

My friend, you are just about buying a stolen car. Get your money back asap before you find yourself where you don't like.

definitely, that a certain way to tell you dat its a stolen car. hope u have not paid him. at least u have to inspect car and documents b4 payment...
anyway, dont buy and drive that car. stay away from trouble.... best of luck...

My friend run fast as your legs can carry you from that friend (dealer) of yours.
