In terms of presidential cars, there is change indeed. While GEJ was riding an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350, Muhammadu Buhari prefers much more expensive and luxury model – Mercedes-Maybach S600.

While both Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari prefer Mercedes-Benz, it seems that Jonathan’s taste in cars is much more simplistic than Buhari’s.

Jonathan attended the ceremony of Buhari’s presidential inauguration inside an ordinary Mercedes-Benz S 350.

Muhammadu Buhari enjoys rides in much more comfortable and luxury Mercedes model after stepping into the presidential office – Mercedes-Maybach S600.

This car represents the top notch in the latest sixth generation of luxury Mercedes-Benz special class cars, labelled by company as the W222, while GEJ’s car belongs to the previous fifth generation –the W221.

Mercedes-Benz representatives describe Mercedes-Maybach S600 as “an extra highlight in the luxury segment.”

Available luxury appointments over and above what was offered in the W221 include a choice of massage type for each seat occupant, while the W221 offered various intensities of a single massage type.

Mercedes-Maybach S600 in base-line configuration costs around $258,000 or N51.6 million, while the price for the new Mercedes-Benz S 350 is only $135,000 or N27 million.

Upgraded versions of these cars for world leaders cost tens of thousands dollars more than their base-line configuration, but include the capability to withstand small arms fire and explosive devices, and a self-sealing fuel tank.
There have been huge scandals related to expensive car purchases under Jonathan’s rule.

Members of a committee handpicked by President Goodluck Jonathan to investigate the purchase of two BMW armored cars at a whopping cost of $1.6 million were intensely pressured by the former president to deliver a watery recommendation that exonerates Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah.
The committee set up to probe the N255m bulletproof car scandal in the aviation ministry has indicted the Minister, Ms. Stella Oduah.

This one na correct change

and that is now a problem?

Mr., that car has been in the President's fleet before Buhari won the election!

what do expect from preacher's of change...
una never see anything.na buhari wife stil dey do party for naw,by the time buhari finish travelling around,thats when him own appreciation party go start.
in wasting public fund...apc<pdp

OP, you can deceive your fellow saTANoids, but not me. None of those S-class is the new s600 maybach. The fact is that, from the exterior, all the new s-class of 2015 look the same, though the Maybach edition is a little longer.

Buhari done one-chance una oooo

What a CAR !!!!!!!


PMB Loan the Car; the same way he loan his Presidential Ticket Form

Similar resemblance to The Beast

Don't joke with cars near an Hausa man.

The Buhari magic is yet to come. We know what happened in 1983 was as a result of Idiagbon, not Buhari. Buhari needs an action man like Pastor Tunde Bakare as his VP to kick them into action, not Osinbajo; another slow coach like himself.

Well. Hehen. Sooo. Doh

The OP is either dull or he's blind.


Since BUHARI assumed office, have you heard of any budget for presidency? When did BUHARI buy those cars? With whose money?




NB: you can't bring BUHARI down with your lies.

I usually don't like to comment on this kind of thread but this nonsense would soon find its way to every other blog.

sheddybest, Buhari actually uses a Mercedes-Benz S550 pictured below at the Central mosque. The regular spec for that model goes for about $95,0000, i don't know where you got your own figures from.

Jonathan bought those cars thinking of second term in office.

So far President Buhari has only spent $21mn being pledge to MNJTF against Boko Haram. In fact, he has not received a month salary since inauguration.

people will go an extent to rubbish to PMB... you are so much consumed with hate ... that you can tell the difference btw a maybach and s500...

Ask God for forgiveness.


whether you like it or not ...PMB is here to stay till 2019.

What a dull poster. Did you investigate the price of the S350 the year it was purchased?

Of course the newer model will be more expensive in its production year, but with better technology comes higher fuel efficiency which means...

PMB's Benz will be cheaper to maintain than Jonathan's.

My dear, the source only compared the prices and models of their cars, not who bought it. Nigeria has a 2015 budget (which includes the presidency) which the government of GEJ did not pause. You could have made your comment without the abuse. It is well...

and what has budget that was presented under gej got to do with BUHARI? Was he part of the team that drafted budget for the presidency, and also made his choice of cars part of it?

Which one be GEJ's car and Buharis's car again....

U are being lenient to these haters of good.
PMB is likely gonner stay till 2023.They ain't seen nothing yet.

Buhari has not bought any car since he assumed office hence your propaganda will not fly.
