BE CAREFUL: Extremely cheap cars affected by Hurricane Harvey and Irma are sold to Nigerians

A couple of months ago, the Hurricane Harvey and Irma natural disaster occurred in the United States of America, which led to the destruction of over one million cars.

Irrespective of this, the US has turned Nigeria into a dumping ground for the rejected cars, which will go beyond repairs after a few months of purchase.

These vehicles are selling fast on USA auction sites, and are already in Nigeria as you are reading this article. You need to be very careful when purchasing a Tokunbo car (Used car), so that you will not to be duped.

Disadvantages of buying a flooded rejected vehicle from USA:

• The floor rugs will be moist or partially wet
• The electrical systems will not function properly
• Under-body and engine will be rusty
• The car will have a unique awkward smell
• The seat will have visible watermarks

Buy cars from trusted car dealers, and if possible take a trusted mechanic to check the nooks and crannies of the car before you begin the payment process.

Be sure to perform a VIN check before you purchase a vehicle.
