Sometimes, owning a personal car or automobile can be expensive and tasking, but Lagos Auto Auction has presented a platform for sellers and buyers.
Like most auto auction fairs, this one promises to be fulfulling and interesting as most automobiles would be sold and purchased at a knocked down price.
Abdul Hakeem Mustapha, Chairman of Lagos Auto Auction, believes this is the best and preferred options for people who are willing to buy automobiles in Nigeria.
According to him, the auto fair is popular in other parts of the world and this has made automobiles a necessity rather than luxury.
“The first Nigerian car auction will provide a medium where you can purchase cars and all types of vehicles at bargain prices and control how much you pay. You will see desperate sellers and organisations who want to sell at very cheap prices,†he said.
The fair will bring buyers in contact with sellers and people can also search for cars they intend to buy as well as search for automobile parts, certified auto mechanics, dealer ratings and apply for auto loan and insurance.
The fair, which is scheduled to hold on 18 December at the Lagos Airport Hotel, is opened to all interest sellers and buyers as well as everyone who deals in automobiles.
The auction will also be an hassle-free medium for automobile experts.
Mustapha told P.M. NEWS that individuals and companies will enjoy first grade cars that are not stolen or smuggled into the country, while proper scrutiny of sellers have already been done and sellers who intend to sell their products must have to register with the organisers via www.lagosautoauction.com.
He described the fair as the ultimate automotive market place in Nigeria that will enable more competition with the industry and encourage small dealers of automobiles the opportunity to advertise and sell.
