It's a beautiful car but you could try the 320, 350, 500 e.t.c... but if you want to go higher there are years with good reviews and in the 350 line there is a balance shaft issue(failure) within a certain number of them but you can check if the one you want to get falls withing the range of the affected ones thru your VIN.

They changed the transmission for some. from 5speed(722.6) to 7speed(722.9),the ones with the 7speed were problematic at the beginning but got better after some years.

Just use google and you will know the good ones and remember it's all about maintenance but i will advice you to go for CLK320(2003-2005) or CLK500(2003-2004) or CLK350(2008-2009){this years are safe from balance shaft failure and transmission issues}.

the CLK500(2003-2004) uses spring.

Pls I'm about to close a deal on a 2003 e class e320. Wat should I be aware of. How is the maintenance like. Are parts expensive? I have driven a Toyota Camry 2005 and it has been praises all through my year of ownership. Very very reliable car I must say. Can the same be said of the eclass? Most of the fault I saw when I visited online forum were all brake related. Engine n gearbox were pretty free from trouble. Thanks guys as I await your input.

Something called the SBC instead of the usual ABS is the only expensive fix to be made. I think aside from that it should be smooth sailing, I hope you're getting a clean history its an old car so they would be the normal wear and tear especially suspension parts.

Hi guys, is it possible for me to get a 98/2000 Mercedes Benz C 43 AMG at Cotonou or even Lagos. How much am I looking at cost wise and what's the maintenance like ? I'm not bothered about the age or aesthetics though, I just need a daily driver that performs well (I won't mind a clean Naija used)

I have never seen a G-Wagon going in for anything other than break-pad and oil change.

I haven't even seen where they sell the parts. How the thing want spoil when looking under the car from a service pit you wound think it was a trawler abi tipper sef with the type of thick suspension reinforcements.

And the oddest part is that most folks find it difficult to differentiate the model years, so ~95% of Nigerians that can't afford the car won't know it's the 2006 model ur driving. So bros, buy the G-Wagon and I promise you won't ever complaīn about car trouble again.

But on the flip side, ur wife won't enjoy the ride at all cause there is nothing effizy inside.

Mobil 1 in Abuja is 18,000 per gallon. You need approx 2gallons (8.5-9litres)
Star oil is 4,500-5,000 per litre. You need 9 litres (your techie should also replace the ATF in the TC via the TC drain plug)

You're not being scammed bro.

The price for the oil seems ok my problem is with the brake pad sensors they are a bit pricey and all 4 can't be bad at once, the tokunbo ones go for less than 1k sef some brakepads even come with them, secondly the gear filter is also pricey thought it was 5k.
Apparently the bill isn't complete Labour isn't included.
