am not in ekiti, am in ib .....
am not saying I can't race you nor I won't, I just want you know all this bad mouth about Japanese cars is too much, you guys are just over hyping.
if I make Ibadan to Akure in 1hr 5mins on the average, Ibadan to ado under 1hr 20mins average...... mind you I stop at ife to buy akara and water to eat and I don't speed over potholes or bumps......I think a car that does that is not doing bad.

Well if you get me further annoyed I will downgrade the class of Mercedes to race you with to a w202 C Klasse from the W210 E klasse!

3 weeks ago purchase fuel worth 5,700 naira on Friday for my HL 2.4L AWD in this period of fuel scarcity, run round the city even in terrible traffic from Friday, Saturday, Sunday (Church then client and family visitation), Monday Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday till Saturday yet the fuel drops to to the 1st lower quarter mark.



Note, some folks in Corolla do weekly 3,000 as long as their cars are tuned to specs.

get annoyed as much as will satisfy you, you can even use Denn's Volkswagen beetles or the other beetle on restoration to race me, I don't care.

recall: you earlier said the comparison of my pencil to my colleagues Benz 190 was not Fair, do you now see what led to the race I had with him? of course I know if I come to post the out come of the race with you another Benz fanatic will say the race was not fair .... abi?

Please when arguing, never argue with praisenetwork and smartchoice, those two are acidic german fans, they don't wanna hear say you use another continent brand, infact if them see U for road, they are ready to race you until you just allow them win to have peace of mind.

Back to topic I have a sienna with 79litres I use a full tank for two weeks with all the traffic I encounter onroad. That's 7k for two weeks, I normally use #2500 for a week or 6days and my mpg has never gone below 16 which is the calculated city rating by toyota, I don't have a stable mechanic, the car has never dissapointed me on the road more than a year I have used it with AC on for more than 6hours journey, its so simple to fix minor issues it may develop. I can't say same for the V-boot my popsi used to use then E200 once it coughs, you need a mecho to look into it, and don't let me get started with its fuel consumption.

If it had been my dads regular benz E200, I would have said its kazeem but his V-boot was one of the most cared for vehicle he used am not saying its not rugged or reliable, but when it coughs, the mechanic must be called to look into it. My dads toyota crown I tthink second generation one manufactured around late 1980s was as luxurious as the S-class in vogue then and has never disappointed in time of need infact it had more rep then than the bogus S-class.

I have driven the 2008 E350 yet I couldn't really figure out if I am missing anything at all in my 2008 Camry V6 XLE. Maybe I am not a car enthusiast. But then which Nigerian goes to the sedan market to buy Benz because of hard-cornering and hard-braking or for stunts meant for sport cars? It's funny when people rubbish a car that performs like one that is more than twice the price at brand new. You bought yours at $80k min, and I bought mine at $35k max yet you feel elated to be thrown into comparison. How else do you want Mercedes Benz to justify the extra $45k you gave them if they don't add the rear wheel or the 4Matic and a few other things that you don't ever get to use here? By the way, I prefer the front wheel in my Camry because I detest the big hunch in front of the back seat of RWD cars. My kids will not seat comfortably. My Camry is not 4WD because I probably don't need one in a car that is 95% driven on a paved road. Three years going I am yet to get stuck. Of course I don't go to where I will. Again who buys a 350 4Matic simply because of the day he will get stuck? Even when they know such places they wouldn't go there same way I do not.

And for too many fake parts of Japanese cars, anything can be faked by anyone for whatever purpose, be it Japanese parts or Euro parts. It is purely driven by the demand for a particular product in the market. Even driver's license are faked. It's got nothing to do with the country that manufactures the original. In fact people love Toyota, use Toyota and by inference buy Toyota parts very well and that is why the parts will be faked.

Well sorry to disappoint you... Benz is usually more complicated to work on in comparison to the Toyota... Just like any European car...

You didn't disappoint me at all, it just shows some people prefer to buy headache and flaunt it than to buy peace of mind and cherish it.

Let benz hold on top its handling, luxury, speed and subsequently disappoint its owner (rust bucket) and let toyota hang on top reliability, ability, durability and never fail the owner (bland but mighty)

CityNG:
You don't buy any modern Landrover products unless it;s under full factory warranty or you're wealth. It will simply drain you financially.

However, when new they are the best thing rolling on the road. I miss my 04 Discovery (not even an LR3). It never ever let me down but would throw the "Three Amigos" randomly.

It consumes ridiculous amount of gas, I mean like 8 to 10 mpg. I practically salivated whenever I got 12mpg from careful driving.

It's not for the timid for sure but like I said if you have the means to feed it then go for it. It is unmixed in the SUV category.

+++++++++++++

Still looking for a 9ja used/registered Landrover Defender, please let me know if anyone knows of one for sale.

Shoot me a mail if you are still looking for a Nigerian used defender. Let me know your budget,I may know where to get one,especially the 110 defender

If there's one for sale let me know and I'm not saying a budget either.

Thanks.

Interesting thread..on nairaland its always naps versus the rest of the worl..
The range rover is an amazing auto bad like every auto it runs best on good quality parts and still like every auto best kept away fromthr kazeems..
Will I buy it used, YES! Will I buy it new, of course YES! Cars are like clothes, some folks like Versace,others tommy,etc. I don't do japs, only jap I can buy is the landcruiser 94-04, that is the model the UN still.uses and they still roll.some of the older.models.brand new for some embassies.
@op buy the range rover and hook up with sooper rescue,you won't regret it. A 4runner or even land cruiser 2099 can never be compared to a range of the same year,it will be comparing apples to years..
Good evening folks
