Is that a positive or a negative? Cos manufacturers generally want lighter cars. Weight is a disadvantage but I guess you are trying to paint it as an advantage.
Some are heavier, some are not li.ke mikereign posted above.

Subjective

Nobody fit tell me that here ahaha/Nah so I bought almost brand new car for my DAD, I came back 18 months year later Engine change sound


Sadly, the mechanics are not any better than the half baked illiterates that own the vehicles. Like ikenna351 used to say, you can't save every man.

Lol.. I know the car you saw for N1.9m. It's a 118i and it has a 1.6L turbocharged engine which is actually small for a real enhusiast. It's in the same level as a MB A-class.

If the seller were in Lagos, I may have bought it as second car.

BMW'S are not difficult to maintain. Get a BMW engineer to service it and throw in the right parts at the right time then you have no issues.

As a BMW owner, I'll tell you for free; the experience of owning and driving a BMW is not comparable to any Japanese out there.

Do you know any specialist in Lagos please?

My guy most of the comments above are personal opinions and not based on facts. I'm a proud owner of BMW 2014 model. BMW car parts are unbelievably cheap compared to Japanese car parts.
Fuel consumption ? You honestly have no problem. Do you know that complete engine of 2014 model of BMW E46 is currently #110.000.00 ? How much is tiny light Camry engine. I strongly recommend BMW car for you. All parts are available with good mechanics.

Are you in Lagos pls?

I have two Bimmer, 3seriesa and an X5, I can never driver a Japanese car. I have good mechanics that handle my cars. He was asking a Japanese mechanic about a Bimmer, he will offcourse discourage you because he will not be working on your car again. Look for a very good Bimmer mechanic and you will get the righ advise. Drive a Bimmer and you will never go back to any Japanese again.

Please do you know a very good mechanic in Lagos?

I saw a 2014 over-sharp Nigerian used BMW car going for 1.9 million.. 2014!!! Is the seller mad? He's defo not a scam but is he crazy

a 2014 Benzo costs 5 times that price Nigerian used or not!

I am pained..

Before I settled for my mumu all for everyone camry 2011, I had a BMW in mind.. na mechanic tell me say NO NO..

No tangible reason ooo but I con dey fear..

7 years and counting.

BMWs only. Easy to maintain once you know how to take care of it. You don't feel safe sitting in a Japanese once you get used to BMWs
Re: Why Are BMW Cars Unbelievably Cheap? by bukkytroni: 2:07pm On Nov 29, 2022
Haven't changed mechanic in 7 years. Everytime somebody else touched any of them, trouble.
