MrHeff:
boss make I no lie. Na the choice of car dey worry me. My mind is tilting towards a 07-09 corolla on hire purchase but I'm wondering if it will be feasible, plus maintenance costs and all. Last thing I want is to be regretting or ruining my integrity in the eyes of my sponsor. My fear is that the 2003/2005 corolla might become scrap by the end of the tenure.

You really need to consider the principal and interest involved, and also the repayment period

An 09 corolla would definitely cost more, and take longer to complete the payment.

An 05 corolla would cost lesser and faster to repay.

So which of the devils would you stick with?

MrHeff:
I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and stick with the 05.

That's good.

So what's the repayment plan like?

izzou:




That's good.

MrHeff:
we haven't discussed it yet. The sponsor actually is my sister. Told her I wanted to make findings first, then we'd talk specifics after. We'll talk about it tomorrow though.

Any advice on how much will be feasible to remit weekly and duration? Also the aim is to make some little change for myself on the side after fulfilling my official obligations. I'm not looking for a meal ticket and I want to earn the car with my own sweat.

izzou:


Relax bro....relax

How long do you anticipate to drive for you to own the car?

MrHeff:
two years maximum. A year and a half if I can help it. The sooner, the better for me. I know a year might be too short

izzou:


You'll need to work your ass off.

Do you think you can handle it?

Olayetan:
Pilots I get Samsung galaxy A30s for sale, very clean and working perfectly.

Quote me if you're interested...

MrHeff:
I most definitely can. That is why I was asking for what to expect so I can zero my mind. Once I know, I can mentally prepare myself

HP is synonymous with rentals. The only difference is that you bear the cost of repairs and maintenance in HP

As a newbie, you'll struggle and make mistakes, but just be patient and learn fast. You'll be fine.

Remember, the reward is the car. So don't be discouraged if you pay your rent any week and you have nothing on you.

I don't know what the car will cost, so I can't advice how much rent is okay...

Just keep reading here. Keep learning about the job, road networks, ups and downs

You'll be fine

Go and do rental for minimum of 6months, understand the job first, then know if HP will be good for you.

2003-2007 Corolla/Honda or any other car model is not going away anytime soon, it will still be around for another 10years. If Nigeria economy is growing expect it to go away soon, but naira keep loosing value, b4 the end of 2023 Buhari will take dollar to 1000.

Have it at the back of your mind that living or driving in Lagos would test your mental toughness. It is not easy rara, because by the time Benefit boys (LASTMA/VIO/CBD & AGBERO) squeeze some money out of the meagre you're making, it will shake your resilience.
See my bro (Eyinola ), benefit boys (Airport & LASTMA) wan wreck him pocket.
But inspite of this torments, you can still pull through, with God by your side and your street smartness on alert.

Crvrider, be aware too that you were billed 18k because the person that recommended him here has a share in that money. Maybe 10k or so.

So much for brotherhood.

MrHeff:
this is very encouraging, thanks a whole lot.

Do not park anyhow in Lagos. If you aren't sure about anywhere, ask people around. Don't make U-turns anyhow...Be very observant.

Obey traffic laws, signs and lights even if it's 12 midnight. Remember, all traffic personnels are out there to eat you...So protect your pocket with all thy might

Do not drag lanes with other road users,...at least not all the time. Learn to protect your car from scratches.

Learn to make friends with other drivers. Whenever you get to a gathering of the brethren, make friends. You'll be surprised how much you can learn from them in a short while

Also, when you go to your mechanic for a repair or anything, don't just drop the car and walk away. Observe what he's doing. With the right tools, you'll be able to repair that fault again and save money.

Sincerely, you'll be fine...Above all, pray to God oh..Na only am fit help us
