If that's the only reason for selling, then I think you shouldn't drop the Benz for Camry unless it's not profitable on the long run.
That Benz go create a niche for you and stand you out from the rest if you really wanna do the job full time.
My thoughts though, happy sales.

You have a valid point. However my initial intention was to be on uber black now called uber select which is premium and attracts premium riders and higher fare. However the service was stopped in Nigeria for reasons best known to them now all cars are in the same category. To service my Benz I spend nothing less than 25k mean while the camry with 8k I don service am.

How possible is it to use 8k to service a Camry? Engine oil and filter alone is more than that unless you have other options wey me no know.

And that Camry sabi burn oil. Using a fake or low quality oil and filter is inviting village people on top the matter.

What type of Engine Oil for 4600? Is it Palm oil or Groundnut oil?

Remember 5w30 is what is required for that Camry so which brand sells for #4,600?

And what type of Oil filter for #1,500?

Onado engine oil. May I'm wrong but this is the recommendation from the mechanic. Please state you quotation

I don't sell vehicle parts but was only stating the obvious as a user like you. You cannot get a 5w30 Oando Engine Oil for that price except you are using a viscosity not recommended for your car which will definitely kill your engine sooner or later.

I bought a Mobil Extended Performance 5W30 for #17,500, Oil filter to match was #3,500. Labour was charged at #1,500 because of my many years relationship established with the workshop owner. So do your calculation.

Even if you choose not to purchase a Mobil brand, other good brands cannot be gotten for less than #10,000. I challenge you to counter this sir.

And FYI, your mechanic is quack to recommend a #4,600 Engine Oil which of course isn't the right oil for you. If i were you, i will stick to the Benz if servicing is your only worries.

Bros nor be fight oh.

Not just servicing that worries me. The upper arm the auxiliary are expensive components in a 4matic and considering what I want to use the car for it wont be economical in the long run. A very basic car like a toyota will suit the purpose. If Uber black still existed it would have been a better venture for luxury car users like myself

grin @ no be fight oh. I never meant fight lol but just for you to do your home work and counter my post if i am wrong.

Okay, i believe the Toyota will be more economical for the Uber but i wouldn't advise using substandard vehicle maintenance parts such as Engine Oil and Oil filter. That's why we have a lot of engine failure due to the wrong oil and filter. Oyibo will use their with high mileage but immediately the vehicle reaches here and all those Palm oil is poured inside, the wahala starts.

Yes i can understand because it's not common to see an Uber driver use Benz when compared to Toyota mostly the Corolla.
