One of the biggest comedians to come out of Africa, Bright Okpocha, popularly known as Basketmouth has just taken delivery of the 2013 Opel Insignia car. I heard from a close source to the comedian that it's a bespoke car, meaning that everything was built to Basketmouth's specification. The car is actually not sold at any showroom in the world...you can only order it. And Basketmouth's car I hear, is the only one that has been ordered in Africa. That means no one else has this car in Africa. The car sells for about 42 thousand pounds. Now that's big! Wow! Congrats Basket!!!

Congrats Basketmouth, u sure deserve a nice ride after all your hardwork.But linda take am easy now...Insignia is available to in showrooms here in europe and you can have it customised if u want. to say its not available anywhere in the world is like saying that Jesus is an Ijesha man because of the way his name sounds....even you can buy it now if u have the money...no fall our hand like that now I respect you too much for that get your sources info confirmed, you can just google this car and see what comes up.....Basketmouth enjoy ur ride jare...

nice car but available in europe if you want it, unlike Linda's claim. Nice one Basketmouth....ENJOY
Real cul..*POKAA*
Congratz.
Hehe! Congratulations Basketmouth you guys should keep smiling to the bank,my own too shall come soonest God's willing.
"Custom made" is a bit far fetched.
You have a set of options you can choose for the car.
It's not like you can say "I want a fridge in it"
It's a defined list of options that anyone can add-on to their car depending on availability and time. You cannot choose anything not on that list
Most car web-sites have this feature if you are buying a new car and never require a face to face meeting.
Still it's custom made anyways.. & Basket is a top dude so good 4 him
Basket mouth #choppinglife#. Nw, no talent's a waste. Linda an ordinary amebo blogger nd nw basket mouth lasan lasan hmmmmn. I must get dere.
Happy girl

forget,,,,d dada lord get swaaaagggg,,,,,,,,,,,,,http://Earnyouth.com/?ref=106493,,,,,,,,jus got my first check its 4 real
basket mouth is my best comedian in the world, but opel insigna is sold in evry opel/vauxhaul showroom in europe, his might be bespoke but u can walk in and buy 1 normally, its not made to order.
congrats to basket mouth
Madam i understand the need to hype achievements but the Vauxhall (opel) Insignia is no where near 42k even if it was custom built. Nobody in their right senses spends 42k on any opel make. It's a bog standard euro box. What about all the people in South Africa (where the car is actually sold) that own insignias?
Go basket...
Congrat 2u basket mouth
This is so cool....congrats

Yah a silly Pant!!! Smelly one for that matter! Who asked you about how many children you overly rich father trained? So what if your father can buy it. What about you the UK trained airhead?? Won't you speak for yourself?
But your dad didn't so STFU and appreciate. Do you know if he trains his siblings too?
Hehe...you don post comment on here again. Ok let's see what linda will give you. Ode oshi
Ok...don't train ur own kids den, so u can buy 50 of it ...ode
Sometimes Linda, you should try not to hype certain things. Our incessant materialism as a people is what has landed us in the mess we are in as a country. You should know that and hold back on your comments. Whether you know it or not, you are encouraging young people to believe that flashy things are all that matter in life.
My Illuminati friend is doing it real big...lets take over naija
Congrats BM..hardwork sure pays.
Ode!u dey mourn goldie u dey talk poverty!vanity upon vanity=vanity.if person like mk I'm own 10/10 custom made tins.its only for a while...d rate @ which pple die dis days wat will one do with some exotic luxuries sef???
Gbaguaaaaan!!!
Excuse me Linda .. Vauxahall Insignia is an everyday car ..Add ons are optional.. There is nothing like custom built.. An average Vauxhall Insignia's starting price is about £21k . Rora pelu campaign jooo!!!
How did he stole it?? Really??? Go to school and maybe you'll be able to afford a bike one day. Dumbass
linda why the unnecessary hype na, that opel isnt 42m, u for try google am first, weda bespoke or not hian! when the car no be bmw, benz, aston martin, Landrover sef, mr bright is bright enuf to spend wisely, linda jst tell us say u dey trip..lol..congrats to Basket Mouth tho,

Basketmouth...... Ur name ain't in vain dude. U got M̶̲̅ε̲̣ screamin my name out loud. I ain't trippin for de money but for wat u did wit it. Dats history nigga. Africa is gonna recognise u for dis. U earned it my gawg, well-done. For those of u thinkin dis is not news worthy? Go fuck yourselves. #tongue-out
Dude how about yourself? Let's leave 'Daddy' out of this.
Congrats bruv am happy for you
I no say u go comment. Oloshi.
Darling Linda, it is surprising you would carry such a story. If you are buying a brand new car from the manufacturers, you are given the opportunity to build it to your spec. What that simply means is you are given the opportunity to choose the engine size, the body shape, external and internal features you would like your car to have. So its a little different from the normal range of that particular vehicle. All the added features or even removed features add or reduce from the starting price for the vehicle. I decided to comment so that Nigerians do not put eye on the poor boy (basketmouth). So in principle, its like going to subway and asking for what you want in the type of bread you select.
Ode wey miss road. Here rezembll Goldie's funeral. Mumu
Opel no b car na. I rememba lst year, an opel car was given 2 me as a birthday gift, omo mehn i sold it..d car no b am at all.

Enemies of progress! Can't you be happy 4 someone else? My dad, my dad, where ur own
Jealous much?
Chai Goldie is dead and here they are enjoying life. Everybody learn from goldies death.. All na vanity!!
Linda we are happy for Basket Mouth but this whip is not a rear car. In england its called a vauxhal insignia and it cost the same as a new corolla. Its a nice car all the same but get the facts rite
Handsome dude* would you love to fuck me? If yes lemme have any contact of yours!
you sure se no be DANA package for his endorsement *Ada Nnewi*
ABEG JOR...MY PAPA GET THIS CAR. CUSTOM BUILT 2014 MODEL. TALK ANOTHER THING
Gbagaun! Gbagaun! Gbagaun! Na london bell ring so!!linda pliz help us correct d ' unfortunate gunshot' as readers don't ve access...
Am sure he must av finishd training you guys..... Tell him to place his order jealous spirit
Jealous much? Hug a transformer 2dy mate!
What's the fuzz about??
42k dolls is just 7.2 million. And that's for a custom vehicle.
Linda has a conventional infinity that cost 8million.
This shouldn't be news. NEXT!!
Hahaha my thots exactlly. D fear of some lag boiz is d beginning of wisdom. If na abj now??
Anon dyu have to be harsh. If he comments here or else where how does that remove d hair on ur skin. You need jesus
If hunger almost killed him in d past,that means he didn't think wise. Iam very happy fir him on his success but £47,000,it is not a wise investment. And alsi;which riad? Naiha roads don better?
I got money money money...just wanna spend it..chim oh
What's the BIG deal about that?
I think poverty has really eaten deep into our fabric. What's there to celebrate in buying a car? People own the brand and are making billions from mere consumers like you. Every new car ordered is custom-built to the owner's taste because you have thousands of add-ins that you may or may-not need. Since when has that become a headline news? Olodo!
Ya madt! Ewu!
ASHAWO
Cmon it's just 10.5 million.. Nt a big deal. Happy 4 bright!
Ode! 42000 nt 42million
Y d hate? Pls leave him alone! He has d right 2 comment! I'm sure if u use ur name to comment we'll be tired of urs too.. Abel leave na guy alone!
Smh Linda at your hype, but dont deceive my fellow 9ja people,i live in the UK and this car is not expensive for him to be d 1st person in africa to own it. Please u too much pass all dis rubbish u won start. Congrats BM

@Anonymous February 25, 2013 at 12:17 PM, shut da hell up! talk about your achievements and not of ur dad. He probably might be among d politicians looting funds meant for d masses and sending u guys abroad to school. I can bet u ar one of those spoilt morons that would rant about "My Father My Father" all the days of their lives. Grow Up Idiot!!!!
What are you talking about, you don't know how much £45k is again ni? Oma se oo, nt up to 14million nairaa....
42k pounds not dollars and that's a freaking 10500000naira, how many pple can afford to splash all that money on a car. Here in d US, we don't drive opel so I guess its a big deal in Europe. Rejoice with him when Linda got hers, we rejoiced with her.
Oloriburuku somebody, kill yaslf!
Bro/sis, was thinking the same thing oo.. Immediately I heard she died, I just told someone, she must have gone shopping and all, all those things now are a big waste.. God have mercy..
Oloriburuku somebody, kill yaslf!
Tunji Solanke, is that you?
Anon 4:37pm its £42k (pounds) tnkmel8r
Do a little research this girl. European dealerships have been selling this car since October 2008 and over 500,000 of them have been produced. W1#D0wZ
You guys are just full of hate!!!! Seriously?? All these insults on a person like you? God help us.
Congrat basket
That's true. Its a taxi here in u.k. I wonder Why they re making a big deal out of this. Hissss
42,000 pounds ode...Nigerians can be ignorant sha
Sorry to burst the bubble , but this car cost way under the figure reported (14,999 pounds sterling)to be precise . Nothing to report about considering basketmouth is regarded as a " big boy "
pls stop misinforming ur readers. this is a very regular car and its even used as taxi in the uk. so you really think he went to their factory and ordered a custom job? pleeeease dont blog about peoples cars if you dont know anything about cars...........an opel/vauxhall,not sold in any car shop in d world......SERIOUSLY?
In this days of Internet you cannot be boboing us about false prices of cars. Opel ain't even regarded as a luxury car.
Anyway nice one basket mouth, congrats.
U guys are all funny, don't u ve other better things to do with ur time rather than insulting yourselves . LMAO
ls stop misinforming ur readers. this is a very regular car and its even used as taxi in the uk. so you really think he went to their factory and ordered a custom job? pleeeease. No it doesn't cost that much!! At most it will cost around £27k besides its OPEL!!
Call me a car snob but this is not announcement worthy.
42 thousand POUNDS not dollars. Do ur math again. You're welcome :)
What's the point of posting news on someone buying a car? albeit a top of the range one!? Linda, you do realise that you promoting materialism so much will only cause the average Nigerian to want to live above their means and may cause them to resort to all sorts to achieve that. Know that this isn't a 'fair' society where hard work as we know it necessarily pays off...plus between you and me it's also a bit tacky!;)
linda i thought you travel out of the country ,pls spare us your fake news ,stop scaring people that wants to purshase a vehicle pls,you are too cheap for my liking you need to stop deeiving people ,you can call up opel office they will give you the price ,what makes you think opel will cost up to that amount
This guy you be fool o, na only your papa send pikin go abroad for school? I am sure you are not up to 20 years. Your mate no dey this blog o!

@Anonymous, February 25, 2013 at 5:28 PM- what is your beef??? If Basketmouth is foolish enough to spend the money that he has worked hard for on a car, then that is his business- at least you can't accuse him of stealing money from the coffers of the nation. Basketmouth is a fool for spending so much on a car BUT i am happy that he is not ashamed to enjoy the money he has earned and trust me, there are far more expensive cars than this!!
At all times i will give basket mouth accolades, but madam, you take a picture from Europe and tell us first in africa....tht is bullshit
And so what if prince charming comments. Everyone is free to comment. Linda pls dis is internet bullying ohh and its not cool and unacceptable frm anyone. Pls prince charming don't let any one intimidate or bully u. Comment sa much as u like. Not rubbish
Who said its 7m? When you are in a hurry u won't read well b4 u comment cos u want to win 1st position. u end up disgracing yourself cos u want to beef somebody.
Obviously u don't know d diff bw dollars and pounds! Nxt time u read d story properly! Mr know all! *rolling my eyes*
Linda you are a very local girl,how can you say it's custom made,I won't drive that car for dash
What's the hype about a vauxhaul insignia car? He should have bought a better car jor.
No one else hv dis car in Africa? U must be phucking
hvin a laff Hahahaaaa Nigerians n bragging
Opel is a very weak and cheap brand.
Opel cars are cheap nothing to write home about
them,So for someone boasting he bought a new opel
can only happen in nigeria.
go check the resale value of Vauxhall/opel in uk
Haba, wen i heard the brand name of the ride, i
almost didnt border looking at the pix of d car, cos
to me omo opel na disposable car in my own opinion
sha. e no de last sef. If i don dey him level to do that
kind tin no be opel i go go de find na haba the guy
don fall my hand finish. that 42,000 pounds fit
arrnage am one correct machine na. Abegyyy
£20,000 not £40K. Infact, you can get a brand new
one from Doves Car for £13,500. Evans Halshaw
selss for £14, 500. Anold Clark sells for £15, 190. So,
there you have it.
Converting this money to Naira is actually a huge
amount, so, kudos to Basketmouth.
1. The car is a budget car and cheap
2. Arnold Clark sells a fully loaded brand New one
for £13,200(plus 20% VAT). That is about
N3,300,000.
3. If you export it, you reclaim VAT and the price
comes down to N2,640,000
4. Add shipping and clearing and you can purchase
the car without middle man(car dealer) fees for less
than N4M
Congrats to Basket man though, but lets stop all
this embarrassing hype.
Nonsense this car is in the show room
The top of the range Vauxhall insignia 2.8i V6 24v
Turbo VXR automatic SuperSport Navigation (known
as Buick Regal in the USA) sell for £35,285.00 cash
and you drive away from the show room.
These are all lies, the car doesnt cost 40,000 pounds
it around 20-30 pounds
