I never knew that you were among the public. I will mention you especially when I have Nissan issues to talk about. In case I might forget, please tell Sultan to remind you.

Incoherent gibberish again.

Owner is fixing it for his own security not that he has a connection to the car or enjoys driving it ..see .same as my assertion on the taxi drivers i.e driving it out of necessity.

I don't think fuel is a problem for BMWs except for the m versions which I'm not sure of .
You're right on looking for tees garage on the internet .people have made up thier minds about BMW in Nigeria .,south Africans like the brand .they are more open minded about the brand although BMW has a plant there and it's easier to get thier hands on new ones .I think that's the reason they don't take about that reliability bla bla bla

The major reason why most Nigerians may shy away from BMW is the availability of parts and professional hands to effect repairs,No body wants a sitting duck, moreover most Nigerians can't afford 2 or more cars.

E get. Person wey dey do Nissan, na motor be that? Op, there's no need to be comparing the BMW to the Japanese products. Thousands of miles apart. Invite Ben Okoh of Automedics so that he will tell a lot of people who want to learn about the BMW.

Antihelminth:


Don't be ridiculous. You can't see that happen because .cheap fake parts don't exist for BMWs..

Naaa!!!
There are cheap fake parts for all car brand

How many years was that?
Man is still triggered and rattling like an aimless submachine gun ���

Comparing a luxury sports with a midsized mid class family hauler is a new lowest level. Compare your shitty bmw with a Benz, Audi, Lexus, Acura, Infiniti Cadillac etc.

Fun fact, I was in 3 BMW WhatsApp group, and most comments were about how their cars broke down and always asking for prices of parts and also mechanics. It got to a stage where even the admin had to start using a toyota, I later discovered over 80% of the members of these group had toyota cars as daily drivers. Bmw fan my foot!
Bmw aficionado my ass!

Lol, obviously you were/are clueless. Stop insinuating what you know nothing about.

Well they just infested and killed the thread, best to focus and do away with the distractions.

When people start talking about BMW being unreliable ..they are people who would want to literally do this to their cars and expect seamless performance ...
Owner used cheap engine oil .and here we are

What engine is This?

sooperrescue:

Wrong assumption. The owner owns a Range Rover and he is fixing it because of Lagos traffic robbers so that they will not focus on him in traffic. The car is full options except for AC. It is going to cost over 200k to put back on the road. As for the BMW, it is a good car. My first ownership was 25 years ago, a 320 series and it was a gift but bringing it to Nigeria was not advisable then and still is. I had the privilege to service the BMW 5 series of the top echelon of the Nigerian Customs in Abuja years ago and it was not funny. Unfortunately for the brand, they have been forced out of the roads, no matter the performance. I only know Dr Ben of Automedics and the late Madmike who knows the car in and out. BMW, Audi, VW, Acura are building permanent structures in Mechanic workshops and Owode, Mercedes is following suit. Just move to Range Rovers. Nice too says lejeun is fixing the brand quietly without looking for tees garage on Nairaland, Instagram and Facebook. [b]Fuel is the major problem of the BMW [/b]and nothing else

This kalo kalo mechanic with false facts has come here again to expose his utter ignorance. Oga BMW has myriad of issues apart from fuel problem.

kingreign:


Only a maniac will buy this horrendous piece of sh*t for even 1m especially when it’s parked for long as I can tell. The owner wan transfer his frustration on one gullible greedy Nigerian.

you sound so bitter. Why?

kingreign:


Honda does white and blue mostly, VW does blue mostly, Toyota does White mostly

Na that stupid yeye South African spec Corolla and avensis Dey carry that orange gauge

every car manufacturer has its own identity and style. I really don't understand this hatred on this thread. Maybe there is more to it. What you find irritating may appeal to vast majority of people. Never seen any review that complained about those lights.

735i:


Note that I'm now on 217k miles. Got it at almost 200k miles.
This talk about reliability is really for people who do not know how to maintain their vehicles.
I can wake up at 3am and decide to hit Asaba without fears.
Some of your so called reliable cars will not dare.
How many Japanese cars in Nigeria are over 200kmiles without Christmas lights all over their dash?

impressive to see another BMW instrument cluster devoid of Christmas light. Below is mine.
