@"Monsignor"Onwan; Thanks, I've been more enlightened about 9JAR but quite "happy and comfortable" where I am @ the mo,  LOL

I recommend your next ride should be a PORSCHE PANAMERA 4.8 V8 TURBO
[That's if the "Vatican" approves because its a sin @ approx £98,000 a pop!!]

@"Monsignor"Onwan [Peace Be With U]; Ur comment is spot on as usual BUT still suggest no one follow your "I have never done a VIN check" LOL

There are penalties for meddling with a car history (Odometer roll back, etc) so I'm more inclined to having one done before I venture besides there are also litigation issues when we buy on "green light" from the "yard sale" if there are variations in what we purchase and the VIN report.

@Onwan; you surely are on the money from your comments esp when you mentioned:

"Another thing is that people have different views when it comes to checking out a vehicle - I have never done a VIN check for instance and I have no regrets whatsoever, same way some people cannot stand going to a place like Berger where you will leave home with a budget for an ML and come back with an Acura MDS simply because you will see soooooo much that you will be confused."

You really are very lucky for never doing a VIN check on a ride but maybe because you're a "Vatican Chap" and I hope no one follow your rule!! LOL

Anyway, buying a ride "off the cuff" in places like Berger might be reason why some people complain about how "unreliable" some cars are because they haven't thought the purchase through [spare-part availability, tech know-how, fuel running cost, general maintenance cost/habit etc, etc, etc] 

At least when surfing online or on NL, you can do your research by asking as many questions as you can from mech engr gurus' like "sienna" et al, before you decide. Besides the market outreach one also gets from online adverts can't be compared as long as the website/forum has been/is adequately publicized.

@Onwan; I guess you right about the number of high-end/other vehicles available at Alausa and other Car Lots in Lagos when compared to online sources in 9jar and NL in particular but I reckon there is more scrutiny and "valued" dealer reputation on NL rather than making decisions on how well valeted "clean" the ride is when you view at Alausa with your mechanic that has no clue on the workings of these “high-end” rides. At least on NL we can ask sienna, et al for an independent opinion on what to look out for when viewing/inspecting before we buy. Irrespective, in my humble and honest opinion, NL may need some more "publicity" as I'm not sure I've seen, read or heard an advert about NL on the TV, newspaper or radio.
[Some folks I know in 9jar still haven’t heard about NL shocked sad ]
Autos / Re: GLEAMING NEW RANGE ROVER EVOQUE UNVEILED !!! by bruv(m): 9:37pm On Jul 19, 2010
@Onwan; grin You have schooled me and I've exposed my naivety about 9JAR once again embarassed LOL
However these "high-end vehicles" don't seem to be selling well/fast on NL as a number of Cayenne's, Infinity's, et al are "still available" not even mentioning most rides over N2m, Hmm, hopefully NL is not for the 10%? LOL [Erm that's a JOKE grin] But seriously, the issue is not only fake parts but technical know-how for these "high-end vehicles" Maybe 9JAR needs more mech engineers like "sienna" to come open shop [I can only imagine the patronage - NO JOKES] *Hint Hint*

@Onwan; Please spare my blushes; I aint putting the EVO and Impreza in the sports category BUT those cars got some meat,
Anyway, true talk "If it ain't PANADOL, Its not the same as PANADOL" I'm not surprised at the Chinese "clonifications" of anything, however these things have a market. Go to any spare part dealer in 9JAR and peeps are ready to PAY for products that they know are FAKE. "Analyse that" LOL
Autos / Re: GLEAMING NEW RANGE ROVER EVOQUE UNVEILED !!! by bruv(m): 3:22pm On Jul 19, 2010
Onwan:

But we still still know the real things though.

Just like in that film (2 Fast 2 Furious) - where Mitsubishi Evo was taking on Ferrari, etc - very fake BUT good marketing.

@Onwan; Erm, (2 Fast 2 Furious) Part 1 or 2?? Just kidding However, those Mitsubishi EVO's and Subaru Impreza aint no push overs either.
Hmm, sadly not sure there's a market for them type cars on NL or 9jar sad cos they ain't Honda or Toyota and most importantly no mechanic has the "gumpshun" or the foggiest idea on where to start from.
Autos / Re: GLEAMING NEW RANGE ROVER EVOQUE UNVEILED !!! by bruv(m): 1:56pm On Jul 19, 2010
@Onwan; LOL from your comments "Peugeot RCZ has a F1, Bugatti angle to it" shows you are really pushing it and having a laugh! LOL
No doubt the RCZ may be backed up by a strong chassis and powerful engine BUT it’s all about buyers perceptions and "Badge Snobbery".
Adverts and marketing also play major roles in deciding choice irrespective of a "strong chassis or powerful engine" This has plagued "decent" cars like the SEAT, SKODA, et al,  I still think the Nissan 370Z will out sell the Peugeot RCZ irrespective of its so called "clone concept" because it will be cheaper, widely available and have better marketing,. How many Peugeots' have you seen being driven in North America? I'm not even sure they know what it is, LOL (That's a joke) sophisticated as it may be the badge don't seem right on that ride

The Nissan 370Z and Peugeot RCZ are so similar, I wonder which came first: "The chicken or the egg" ?
However, I reckon the Nissan will have more patronage than the Peugeot (esp in Europe and North America) and quoting from Onwan's comments:
"Yeah, better engine, almost the same body BUT a better ground clearance (especially at the rear) - This is compared to the 350Z" it's an improvement from the previous model (Nissan 350Z)

Onwan:

@Sultaan
From my little experience with cars and ownership; I have come to realise that there is a reason why one brand new car costs $25,000.00 and another brand new car costs $90,000.00 - the difference in build material, build quality, handling, comfort and reliability is mind blowing.

When a car is expensive, its not because it has a high price tag; its because for instance, - we keep looking for cold pure water on thirdmainland bridge to cool our blown camry gasket while a bentley or a phantom has its engine lined in pure gold foils to avoid overheating

Its because for instance - you have to drop your side glasses a little bit in your honda when parked in the sun to avoid your fabric or inferior leather interior catching fire while in a maybach or a phantom there is an internal cooling that runs independent of the engine when parked

Its because for instance - you need to always look for a rewire to rent a battery each time your china alternator messes up in your Honda while at a push of a button in a Maybach or a Phantom, a reserved power jump-starts your car. These options come by default.

There was a Generator someone bought in the early 80s, It came with a Rolls Royce engine, it still runs till date - I can tell you how many Honda/Elemax/Tiger things I have had to give away, just to have peace of mind.

So you see, your 2012 Camry comes without a Navigation screen, while Viperman's 2003 Porsche Cayenne comes with GPS Navigation - dont even get me started on the kind of gadgets you will find in a Rolls Royce Phantom, OR in the Maybach, or even in the Benntley

@Onwan; CASE CLOSED, cool

@Sultaan; I reckon its the car and the brand. Hmm, there's loads of sense in your comments: "for those who like to drive down the road quietly screaming " I have money to burn" I will most defo drive the Bentley GT Coupe but @ approx £139,950 a pop its more like screaming (quietly of cos) "The money has been burnt, please deal with it, !" LOL
Autos / Re: GLEAMING NEW RANGE ROVER EVOQUE UNVEILED !!! by bruv(m): 1:33pm On Jul 18, 2010
@Onwan, I must confess, I'm actually drawn towards the Evoque (5 door version), maybe because i'm in the "yard sale" BUT since I'm a kid at heart, its the Bentley GT Coupe for me, LOL

@Onwan; I get the pic you're painting. However, I don't think a RR Phantom was built/designed to be driven by the owner. The driver's comforts may actually be for the chauffeur cos they look more like pilots with the amount of tech gear. They also earn as much as investment bankers! LOL
Anyway, I'd go for a Bentley Continental GT (A bit cliché fo the nouveau rich but rather that than any other cliché ride, )

Autos / Re: GLEAMING NEW RANGE ROVER EVOQUE UNVEILED !!! by bruv(m): 1:42pm On Jul 17, 2010
@Onwan; OMG I really had to think hard about that,  LOL
I reckon its the RR Phantom or the Bentley for me but swayed more towards the Bentley because I'll want to drive it rather than having to get a chauffeur for the RR Phantom [ Q.E.D. ]

Same question back to you, "IF you had no budget for this class of vehicles, would you take the Bentley, the RR Phantom or a Maybach?"
