My brother, this is a very tall claim

Buynowautos:


I drive a C320 05 and I can confidently say my C class fuel consumption is better than same year Corolla.

weyreypey:

Read from the first page you'll find where we proved this.

Eddee:


Well, to each according to his own. I drive a 2009 Corolla on most week days, I've never bothered to look at the fuel guage, As for My Mercedes, the fuel consumption is well documented on this thread

Buynowautos:


What Mercedes Benz do you drive?

Eddee:


And old timer, '04 E320 4matic

Buynowautos:


I have an assumption that C class has better fuel economy than eclass.

I bought 2k fuel on an empty tank at akowonjo. Drove to ikeja then gbagada, from gbagada to festac with the horrible traffic, came back to gbagada before heading home (igondo) the reserve light came on around Alausa ikeja.

How heavy or light was your right leg, and also did you do all that trip with A/C on?
Also what time did you make that trip cos I know how the traffic situation looks like in those area.

Eddee:


You're enjoying, 2k on an empty tank for me will be in the reserve category. Car has a tank capacity slightly above 80 litres.

My AC was on all tru as I operate an online taxi business with my car. My tank was as good as empty as the reserve light has been on a while before topping up 2k. C320 4matic 05 that's the vehicle I use

jceesquare:

Interesting.
You're one of the few sensible ones that distinguish themselves in the ehailing business with your choice of car.

Condition pushed me to the streets, I love Benz from my teenage days. I learnt driving with Regular. Went out of paid employment over 8months applied to many companies no luck so I decided to hit the road since I love driving already.

Picture just before I top 2k fuel although the fuel meter was not will captured

HeavenlyBang:


A dead Corolla with bad O2 sensors, maybe.

alphaNomega:


Wait a minute, your car does not have an engine oil dipstick? What engine model is that?

No it doesn't 2005 C320 4matic.



...and leaky exhaust.

Benz and over sabi

sacramento1212:


I doubt that except the Corolla is in a very bad condition but under normal circumstances, the Corolla will definitely be more fuel economical than the w203 C320 2005 that you drive.

jceesquare:

His claims got me confused.
His car has an all wheel drive format and definitely heavier than a Corolla of same year.
If he's comparing the fuel consumption with a v6 Camry, then that I'll understand.

Eddee:


The acceleration was very smooth I must admit. Didn't even feel bumps or potholes, wetin dem dey take manufacture the shocks for these old cars? Drove an early 90's Audi 80, the suspension parts were very firm (mind you, this car is a taxi).

nwanneni:
come ph make we race na.
My Lexus vs your infiniti

We fight side by side till we die

Chelseafan1:


How much did u fix the w211 shocks. I can mail u if its a classified info

Eddee:


Nothing classified bro. Toks Shocks 85k for the front pair, 15k for the back, sway bar and stabiliser linkages took most of the money sef 90k. All with 3 months guarantee from Ojuelegba

Chelseafan1:


Thanks man, shocks alone is 85k, how much brand new go kon be na, abi d one I saw on Amazon na scam ni?

Sway bar nd stabilizers alone 4 90k? Or everything with shocks.

How was the car after the change when u enter potholes and bumps. Mine has gone really bad, I no like am.. I need to change it.
