rapper12:You are just ranting disjointedly. Satchet water sells more than bottled water,does that make satchet water better than bottled water? You talk of rolls Royce,how many do you see on the road even in the richest countries compared to Mercedes ? Are rolls Royce regular cars?How many rolls Royce have you sighted on the road since this year? I can authoritatively tell you a 1986 flat booth built 30 yrs or more ago has better stability on the highway compared to a 2010 corrola, having used both of them. People talk about reliability, it follows that a house with central heating,Jacuzzi, central airconditioning, swimming pool,toilet facilities in every room etc will need more maintenance than a house that doesn't have all these. B4 you reply to rant and abuse,tell me the Benz you have owned,if not,You don't have d right to reply or open this thread in the 1st place. 48 Likes 2 Shares |

Rubbish. I can say this is absolutely not correct. I have owned 3 mercs from brand new. Never gave me any issues. 1 even saved my life - had a write off accident. Not only did I not have any scratch it actually alerted the emergency services to my location. I have owned a 3 series BMW as well previously and I can tell you like for like 3 series is no match for the C Class. 16 Likes |

Philadelphia:Yes na. Anyone. BTW don't mind those baseless Benz or Nothing fans. That's how they rant. They keep saying that their electric fault-ridden German garbage is best, this that. Challenge them to pinpoint one aspect where there yoosless German nonsense is better than other cars they begin they twist about. Thats how the other one asked me to bring out any model of Mercedes and Toyota for comparison. When I did, he searched Google and seeing the coast is not clear, he changed topic and started yarning baselessly. Na their way be that 16 Likes |

rapper12: I'm not yarning baselessly. You're shouting reliability upandan so is it RELIABILITY alone that makes a good car? Talk of design, handling, technology, chasis rigidity, speed and other things that determine a good car. In your previous post you said VIP's don't use Mercedes, you know you're wrong with that you only said it for ranting sake. Tell me the government agency that uses Toyota as their official ride worldwide. Even in Nigeria now your Prado is used to escort S-class, you said Mercedes does not have a competitor for Rolls Royce have you heard of Mercedes Maybach 6? 21 Likes 2 Shares |

Hustlersdiary:Hey little kid, I bet you don't know that while Mercedes was busy copying BMW dashboard, Nissan Leaf became the best-selling electric car in some countries and won so many innovative awards. But who am I to advise a Benz or nothing kid, the other one said that Landcruiser Prado is escorting Mercedes S class. He didn't know PA to the owner of that Sclass(Buhari) was backing it up with a Toyota just in case it breaks down on the road Under his very own eyes he didn't even realize that for one VIP that accidentally buys a refurbished Mercedes CLA called the Sclass, 1000 more use Landcruiser and Lexus. He even admitted mistakenly that you must own a Prado even if you unfortunately buy an S class just to make sure you have a real car to drive once the German matchbox starts misbehaving. 7 Likes |

rapper12: Keep daydreaming. I can't keep arguing with a one way traffic headed human like you. Shouting reliable upandan. Don't bother replying me I wouldn't reply not cos you were able to prove that Benz are overrated but because you're not worth arguing with. Peace, Have a nice life. 12 Likes |

Sometimes a reality check is all we need. The average Nigerian would pick reliability over performance any day, any time. Besides, where are the roads to enjoy that performance? Reliability should be the most important deciding factor when getting a car in Nigeria. We want a low cost maintenance ride that gives an average level comfort without breaking a sweat. My younger brother whom has a GL450 2008 model enjoyed the car after the first few years of purchase but after 5 years of usage, the whole drama begins and you begin to feel the expensive repairs. A Lexus or Toyota would cost less to repair and will maintain their reliability even after 10years with little hassles. My Pathfinder 1998 model rocks as solid as a rock with daily AC usage and I spend less to maintain it. It has never let me down on the road and I never break a sweat to fix it. It all comes down to choice. 23 Likes 2 Shares |

pafestula: People like you cannot read and comprehend. The op clearly pointed out that Benz is overrated. He did not say that you should not buy it. Benz is good for people who like flashy luxury cars. But if it is reliability you want, Benz is not the best luxury car for that. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

rapper12:I don't think the car is an overrated car, I think their pedigree is what speaks for them. They have since the 40's perfect car design and comfort in automobile and at these time , Toyota was still struggling to make a car. Most of the Asian car were developed from copying a thing or two from Benz. You can imagine a 1978 Benz having ABS in it. So on these ground I think Benz have earned their respect long before Toyota and lexus or whatever u can think of 15 Likes |

Hustlersdiary: @rapper12, has raised many issues bordering on Benz. Why are you masturbating on "reliability" alone? The op has raised alot of strong, genuine and compelling points. I'm yet to see anyone engage him constructively. Most of these guys claiming to have owned "Benz" car only had in dreams. At Best, they might have driven their uncle Benz for errands. For them, all about Benz is the it's logo and white color. I strongly believe that op knows it's onions. Peace!! 15 Likes 4 Shares |

I drive a C class and I also drive a Nissan that You guys don't get it and wouldn't get it until you drive a German machine especially Benz! All these Japanese cars are crap and scrab! Who compares Benz with Lexus I drive a Benz C Class Kompressor) and also a Nissan trust me since this year I haven't touched that car ! The Nissan is gathering dust and I am even looking for whom to sell it to. Benz gives me safety , great handling and amazing comfort! Unlike Japanese that are like paper , I drove a muscle Toyota Camry ! Men that car is nonesense! It moves like millipede when I compare it with Benz! It is not solid and it's just light ! How do people drive that trash ? Now I am going for ML 350 that is the next target now ! Benz is addictive ! Benz is the real deal 17 Likes 1 Share |

Mercedes is worth every hype you cannot just compare it with the likes of Toyota Honda Lexus it is even an insult to place a comparison between them Buy a brand new Mercedes Benz maintain it properly and trust me it wouldn’t see the mechanic for at least two years I don’t own any one but my dad owns a small 4matic and it has not been taken to a mechanic Mercedes is reliant,comparing Mercedes with the likes of Lexus Honda Toyota it’s like comparing an iPhone with itel 6 Likes |

In North America, when benz or bmw bought brand new hits 3 years old, the owner quickly sell them off die to expiry of warranty. Repair and maintenance cost becomes very expensive once the warranty expires. I am surprised at the way Nigerians are rushing toks benz, are there even auto mechanics shops to maintain them properly 10 Likes 1 Share |

I was hoping to see a factual analysis of the subject matter but the emotion behind the delivery of this piece muddled up the subject matter. It's a little incomprehensible how one harbours this much distaste for a car brand like a rival salesman with a morbid sense of competitive spirit 11 Likes |
