Why do you guys talk like this haba my mother is 67yrs old and was driving her c class Benz past 140km/h at her age young man grow your liver please. When my mother was your age I can remember her exhausting the speedometer on her beetle and still complaining car was not fast enough in the 80's . Stop all this talk. Go and learn how to drive properly. Imagine in a Benz eclass your at 140km/h and complaining about your liver not allowing you to drive past that in the year 2019. Better you said road was bad or your just learning how to drive. Even if the car is not for you can't you try. Talk like a man ooo. Am sure your the kind of man that can't take her from behind so that she does not fall off the bed and die and you go to prison for manslaughter!

Did a short trip of about 135 kms today.So i decided to play a little bit on my way back, couldn't sniff near HeavenlyBang and Nwanneni dem record, liver no gree me pass 140km.

I can categorically confirm the on board computer is padding my fuel consumption stats, by my own estimation i used 25-27 litres of fuel for that movement.

I even do more than that sometimes depending on the nature of the road i am driving and the condition of the car. But that doesn't mean i will be consistent in it.

It depends on the model of the engine. All Mercedes don't carry same engine so the price of a w202 engine will be different from w203. Same with transmission and other suspension parts. But when replaced, it will last longer than some other brands even when it's expensive.

I think suspension parts are the most expensive because it happens almost all the time.
Especially front suspension parts.that is the price we pay for all that turning advantage. grin
For engine replacement,most mercs engine and transmission hardly fail but when they do,it is usually expensive,especially forced induction,small displacement but high bhp output ones.
Most of Merc big engines(except AMGs) are often relatively affordable since it hasn't got demand(they hardly fail/get destroyed beyond repair)
However for the seven gear auto Merc transmissions,when they fail,it cost a lot to replace them as compared to the 5 speed counterparts and are more prone to failure!
That's my 2 cents.
