Lexusgs430:Spot on boss. I live in Nigeria, I am a beneficiary of the gig economy (ride-sharing) and I sometimes wonder what prompts the ethnic bickering that I witness daily on Nairaland and other social media used by Nigerians in Nigeria. Only joblessness defines it! 5 Likes |

Dear All, (especially @Lexus430). First of all, my theory test was a one-time experience and it went well. I am happy. Secondly, (and most importantly), I would like to get a first car. A little thing. Used. Max £800). I have been looking at Gumtree and Facebook marketplace and recently e-bay. Autotrader seem expensive. I found 1 car auction company in Letchworth, Hertfordshire too. Please what is the best way I could get a little Banger? Something little. A good runner. Dazzol. I wish I could copy in @DaveChapelle in this request....���

Elderss: You clearly work in the health sector...... If you have no documentations of immunisation coverage..... A simple blood test can ascertain coverage...... Either your GP or OH department, can undertake such test.... Do you have a visible BCG scar?.... |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Elderss: 3:46pm On Jul 05, 2019 |
Thank you for the response sir. I have actually ticked 'No' for that. The major issue is that I don't have documentation for the vaccines/immunization. Will a blood test suffice? NB: I still dey Naija oo Lexusgs430: |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Lexusgs430: 3:48pm On Jul 05, 2019 |
Elderss: A blood test would show cover......... And if you have had no vaccinations, start stretching your arms out......... If you have had cover, the blood results print out, would show cover level....... |

One thing I'd advise is that before you conclude on a particular car, make sure to do a check on how much the insurance will cost. This may significantly influence your decision. RalphJean: 6 Likes 3 Shares |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by RalphJean: 6:47am On Jul 06, 2019 |
Lexusgs430: Thanks so much for the clue. Will definitely put that to good use. This toyota looks cool. With odometer at 180,000 miles. Will that translate to cheap or expensive insurance? Where may I see others like it, please? |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Lexusgs430: 7:50am On Jul 06, 2019 |
RalphJean: Check gumtree and preloved........ Odometer reading does not affect insurance premium. But would affect any eventual payout, incase vehicle is written off............ Make sure you conduct a HPI check on any vehicle + historical MOT checks............ 4 Likes 2 Shares |

sgtponzihater1: Whatever you do tick, you will have a blood test to check the level of antibodies to all the above. I apparently have had German measles in the past. |

I haven't bought a car yet, nether have I bought insurance. But I've been driving a company car for about 6 weeks now (with company insurance). Will this driving experience give me a discount when I eventually buy my own car insurance? I'm also 30+ years old. I recently used Quotezone to get a quote and the cheapest I got was £789.

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by RalphJean: 10:55pm On Jul 06, 2019 |
DisGuy: Hello & thanks. But before purchase, the only thing I can see is the licence plate and number |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by claremont(m): 11:18pm On Jul 06, 2019 |
spacyzuma: This is cheap. My first car insurance was circa £1500, the car itself cost me only £950. £789 for a first car insurance is very cheap, it should go do to circa £450 after your first year no claims is banked. 1 Like |

RalphJean: That's all you need in this UK . Quick info you can get before any online search, the plate number also denotes the year car was manufactured/registered eg DG11 Bleep is a 2011 car registered in Bleep location, while DG61 (50 added to any year from 2000) could either be 2011 or 2012 sometimes |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by DisGuy: 1:37am On Jul 07, 2019 |
RalphJean: Most car adverts will have the info needed like auto or manual Engine size Odometer/ current mileage make and model Diesel or petrol Factory spec or spruced up Then from you- estimate of annual.mileage you think you'll be driving, social or business use 1 Like 1 Share |
