For me a die-hard Benz lover, it's pathetic to see that a 2017 508 which shud be in d same class as a Benz E-Class has only 6-Speed auto tranny!
A w203 Benz C-Class as far back as 2006/2007 has a 7-Speed auto tranny,.....and perhaps every other option/luxury niceties that 2017 508 has.
Up till 2015/2016, Accord at best has a 6-Speed auto tranny,......how can these cars compete with a Mercedes-Benz that is at least 7yrs older in year of manufacture?

Don't be idle. Make a wise decision today. Invest that spare money in Donation Hub and reap your dividends in no time. Invest wisely.

It uses 0W30 or 5W30 synthetic engine oil.


where can you get it. Definitely not total q9000 which is not complaint with the new generation peugeot cars. So if you dont patronise the dealers, where else can you get the oil?

Oil lubes in Nigeria currently do not have any 30 weight oil except say Mobil.

However, things are changing gradually and I think they would all soon.

But in the meantime the engine dies while waiting for the right oil. The right oil is available but only at the dealers. Peugeot recommends TOTAL and the oil is not in their stables. Do you know that TOTAL Classic has a 5w30 full synthetic oil but we are saddled with sae40? That is why it is only government agencies that patronise the brand.

It is also pathetic to compare a car worth more than N50m to a car worth less than N20m. When you compare, please do it holistically.

Holistically
Which car in this talk is worth more than N50m, and which is worth less dan N20m? I was comparing a brand new Benz wit a brand new Peugeot 508.
My basis for comparison is d fact dt technology u find in an entry level (as against high end cars like a 508 or Accord) Benz (eg C-Class) say 8yrs ago u may still not find in a 2017 Toyota or Accord/Honda.
Let's be practical here, is a 2016 Accord V6 more fuel efficient dan a w203 Benz C-Class (let's say a 2006 C230 V6)? Certainly d Benz is more rugged, more reliable, an more fuel efficient!

A technology that is worth N50m cannot be the same with that worth N20m. Before making such comments find out how much the Benz cost, at least the 508 from this thread cost less than 20m.

Do you know how much a brand new MBenz C class is in comparison to a peugeot 508? Thats where to start. Compare cars of the same class say MBenz C class and BMW 3 series which are on the same class. What you are doing is comparing Hussain Bolt to Blessing Okagbare. The question is, is 508 even in the same class with Accord or Camry? You like one car and you compare every thing to that car. Very soon you will compare Kia Picanto to G wagon just because you like Benz and Picanto seem to as boxy as G wagon!

Why in this world would you compare 2016 accord to a 2006 C class? Why for God's sake? Even Benz management will be angry at you. Let me break your bubble, 2016 Accord V6 is 3.5L same as Benz C350. But Accord has 26mpg combined and 278hp while 2006 C350 has 21mpg bombined and 268hp. That makes the accord better fuel efficient and better horsepower for the same size of engine.

As far as am concerned, its cheating to compare 2016 to 2006 so lets use the 2006 accord. Accord has a 3.0L engine, 21mpg combined and 244hp while C350 has a 3.5L engine, 21mpg combined and 268hp. Dont you see 2 cars of the same age and performance? Unfortunately, these 2 cars are still not in the same class as Benz is a Luxury sedan class car and Accord a full sized sedan class. So to be fair to the accord you have to drop to a C 280 which also has a 3.0L engine like the accord but a 228hp and 21mpg combined. Now even not in the same class, there is a serious competition here with Accord leading the C280 in terms of horsepower. Even with this advantage, the Benz is far mor expensive to the Accord.
