Popular Nigerian skit maker and content creator Zicsaloma has opened up about what he described as one of the worst financial decisions he has ever made, buying a Range Rover Sport.
Speaking in a recent interview, the comedian revealed that he purchased the luxury vehicle for N30 million, hoping it would be a worthwhile investment. However, things quickly went downhill.
According to Zicsaloma, within just three to four months of owning the car, he had already spent about N10 million on repairs and maintenance due to recurring mechanical issues. Despite the heavy spending, the problems persisted, forcing him to sell the vehicle.
Shockingly, he said he was only able to sell the Range Rover for N11 million. When the numbers were added up, the comedian explained that after subtracting the cost of repairs, he effectively got back just N1 million from the entire transaction.
His revelation sparked massive reactions online, with many social media users sharing similar experiences and agreeing that luxury cars can quickly become financial traps if not properly researched.
Leo Dasilva said, “Range Rover is the car you buy when your mother stops praying for you.”
Rose said, “You buy a car brand new and fix within 3-4months? There should be a warranty on the car.”
Akpo said, “Any range rover sold for 30 million is a box with a damaged engine just rover logo! If you bought it for 90-120 million, you for enjoy what it means to own a range rover ! See as.i dey talk like say I get one.”
Temidayo said, “Range rover isnt as bad as people think , you just gotta buy the one with a very low mileage and also nit so old and also be ready to do the maintenance at the right time.”
Nimi said, “When the devil tried to attack your finances, he sends you a Range Rover!!!”
