royallord1:when you change at intervals change all. and most importantly don't buy anything tokunbo parts or Chinese new... get the OEM...they last.. the Benz has a more sturdy build but has a lot of problems bedevilling it too when you encounter a smart key problem with SAM problems or fuel sender issues as well as a plethora of other things like harness wires for the engine... baba Benz Mechanics are not too full of joy |

NgcoboP:i really dont give any thoughts if u responded or not just dont support what is nt correct. @ BOLDED -royallord didnt argue majorly on d comparison of camry and e class even though the dude used the word response; all he is trying to say is that d dude should not equate c class and corolla as the are not the same -like royal said, it would have been fair comparing it to the avensis not corolla. kapish! mind you the c class is no small level entry... if that is wat u implied |

Jazzlite: You just even exposed your ignorance the more. You're calling kingreign; how many benz WhatsApp group is he in before he comes to defend you that are in 5 benz WhatsApp group ?- FYI, I am in one of those your "5 benz whatsapp group". I even happen to be one of the pioneers of that WhatsApp group. Smartchoice is in one but Shoppy, Bigmeat and Engr. Kells are in the other. Or should I call more names for you that you don't even know? It's either you don't know how to read or you lack basic understanding of English or you're blind (maybe you have cataract, glaucoma or something) which may have been the cause of you not reading and understanding this thread. Here are the basis for the comparison (in bold) from the topic: "[quote author=Philadelphia post=50905285]It's now a cliché to new entrants and old vehicle users that if you want a car that is cheap, easy to maintain and fuel economical that you should go for camry or anything Toyota. Everyday, we hear and see people's Toyota cars (especially camry) stolen. I created this thread to compare these cars in terms or reality and not "dem say" or my mechanic say. Let's compare these cars in terms of 1.) Price of shock absorbers. 2.) Price of break lads. 3.) Engine and gear prices. 4.) Fuel pumps price 5.) Anything else fuel consumption, how much to get a clean Nigerian used (tokunboh fit high because of exchange rates)." If you can't understand this from here, then I have to leave you to wallow and rot further in your dilapidated state of ignorance. |

Philadelphia:Hi Phil long time.... Of course where the Toyota will forgive you Benz won't. Moreover it is better to do a comparison of the new condition of the two brands... If you are looking at reliability of the two using brand new cars as example... The Toyota has the tendency to be more reliable going by online surveys..of users.. the reason might be due to the simplicity of the Toyota brand in comparison with the Mercedes Benz... But nothing compares to the feel of the Mercedes Benz on the road... I think that man is just equating or rather comparing based on the vehicle sizes On cost of maintenance using OEM non aftermarket parts both are costs almost same if not exactly same... Toyota parts don't come cheap.... Just like Benz... and unfortunately the Toyota has a higher demand compared to Benz hence higher prices..... But comparing the c klasse W202 aftermarket parts with corolla or Camry of same year in Nigeria.... The Benz costs about three times less to maintain than the Toyota.... And Benz parts last three times more 1 Like |

c klasse is an entry level executive sedan at least until 1997. Don't argue. abbacar: https://www.nairaland.com/1895540/paying-car-kindly-advice http://carsort.com/compare/Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-vs-Toyota-Corolla https://www.nairaland.com/1814489/benz-c180-vs-toyota-camry 1 Like |

NgcoboP: Not correct. Camry is not a mid-level executive sedan. It is entry level. Just like C-class and BMW 3 series. Mid-level executive sedans are E-class, Honda Legend, BMW 5 series, Jaguar XF, Nissan Maxima etc. Higher up you get the full luxury sedans which include Benz S-class, BMW 7 series, Jaguar XJ, Lexus LS 460 etc. Honda and Toyota do not have offerings in this sector, unless you call Lexus a Toyota. Of course there are pretences from the Koreans in the shape of Hyundai Genesis and Kia K9 but they can only realistically compete with the 5 series and E-class. 1 Like |
