Did u feel inferior in any way driving s BMW?
I am indifferent sha to the Mercedes - BMW challenge...

In those days people preached MB or nothing but not now..... The glory is no more there as it used to be!

Mercedes Benz is for full comfort and convenience...soft and easy.... BMW is too high-strung....I hated it.

Tbh, I'm a big fan of Mercedes. Always have been. However, it's shocking that just about every single Merc model I looked at had a flaw I couldn't let go of.

W211: SBC, Air shocks for the V8 models , engine flaw on the early facelift models, poor design across the board.
W209: Unreliability of a W203.
W204: Too slow, EIS, etc.

For that same reason, I still have no idea if I'll move over to Mercedes for my next car, since the only good option would be the 2011/2012 C63.

Therein lies my problem with Mercedes. Good cars across the board but most have massive weaknesses.


Bars of life.

My W211 has airmatic and it's a v6. But currently on coil overs, local man cannot come and kill himself. As for the prices quoted by sooperrescue for the w212 air shocks, I'll say he was been lenient. Only Merc, I'll buy going forward is an S Klasse (if I perish, then I perish). If money no reach, I sabi person wer get connect for Infiniti Benz and Lexus Benz.

Airmatic is optional on the E320 and E350. Standard on the V8 models.


Na that airmatic just discourage from Mercedes, tbh. Limits choices to the C Class and other cars built on that platform.

Like you, I'd rather stay with Infiniti. Lexus hasn't exactly made an exciting car in a long time, except maybe the IS-F. Apart from that, going forward, it's American for me.

Charger and CTS-V are great sedans.

My brother, that charger is the way forward. Downside is having to always wait for parts if something breaks or fails. I've been in that situation before with a water pump for my mom's Jeep, was the first part I bought on ebay or is it Craigslist sef. That was more than 10 years ago for a liberty, and little has changed over the years.

American cars in Nigeria are all fun and games, until something as common as a specific relay or even ball joint fails.

True, true. I hadn't considered that. But there are more American cars than ever these days around. I see plenty of Dodge and Ram everyday, and parts are likely to be shared.

How much is the fund available?

400k to 0.5m

Kewtt:

Stick with your Range Rover cars.

I SWEAR ahahahahhahah

The 4 balloons of a 2010 e550 cost 1.2m. That is what makes it special. As common as w123 was, as per repairs, everybody were still buying engines for the car. Air filters for the vboot series in majority of the vehicles were mostly found in the boot, The car was struggling to breathe. I know a lot of people who took 6 months to raise money for balloons and afterwards sell off the damn shit for their peace of mind. It is the only car that you cannot change a balloon, you must change both. And the fuel is out of the country, 85% of the Benz in Nigeria are battling with sludge and the owners are easily misled by the Mobil 1 sticker and therefore use the petrol and diesel variant instead of the gasoline only. Mercedes Benz has no business being driven in Nigeria. All these yuppie guys buying them are working for our (Mechanics) benefit. It is on top of the car we will roof our houses. The parts sellers that will sell fake ATF as Star, sells any plugs so long they are Star not minding the fact that an S class cannot use the same plugs with a B class. So what makes Benz special to the owners? The cost of owning one and maintaining it to be on the road has removed the pleasure of enjoying the thrills of driving a Benz on cruise control at 200km per hour on a beautiful highway.
