Benzine
Somebody should please quote me when this thread makes it... I don’t know of the older models you’re talking about but I have a friend who has ML320, end of the story is that he wants to sell it because his pocket is always crying after any repairs

Fritz007:
Please house can anyone help breakdown the maintenance cost of owning a 2005 c230k... parts replacement and other hidden charges during routine or corrective maintenance. since my budget never react for better ones.

Midoda:


Depends on the part of the country you stay budget 20k annually for changing four arms.
20k for fuel filter thats twice annually
Servicing is 50k at 25k twice a year(synthetic oil,oil filter and labour) plus miscellaneous
Ehen since you always allow your fuel guage to show llight before you refuel budget 25k for toks fuel pump.
Then your evaporator or compressor fit kaput 50k
0xygen sensor sef fit kamake 20k
Enjoy your ride.

Benz is not for the faint heart .The feeling is not comparable to any Japanese sha

I drove a 2010 Camry... It was tasteless sexless loveless and lifeless. I was screaming for my 2001 E320!

A friend got the same car free, it turn out to be a trojan horse. My guy no get peace of mind and the car no want truce.

He didn't want to sell it because he doesn't know how the gifter will feel but has decided to damn the consequences. He said, "this car wont kill me".

Ayodaygee:



Bros where you dey since sef....Nah this kind analysis we dey like...

The yearly cost still not bad when compared to the feeling....N155k - N205k per year.

With Jap motors...you might still spend the same

Ayodaygee:



By the way...hope u are not leaving the Benz family by selling your C240?

Waterbear:



Thank you brother... lol.. i sold it and got a c320..
But now im getting an ml350..

Hahaha!!! Me leave the Benz family?
Ive had over the years 3 Lexus and 2 Benz...
Benz beat them hands down if not for the silent ride the lexus have upperhand in.

For example.. you know that feeling when you're on the highway and your gear hard select for just a moment?
In a Benz you just smile, it would take you home and its probably nothing, worse to be you spend less than 100k total fixing, but you would get home... (never experienced gear issues...)

In a Lexus, heart beat racing... cost of fixing 300k to 500k at the least for es 330 and 350 , might not get you home.. (experienced that once...)
Trust me, not a good experience gear failing on the highway

HeavenlyBang:


Yeah, because you're in an old Benz. The 5 speed is very rugged.

Try that in a 7g-tronic or 7g-tronic Plus and tell us how it goes.
