aberyomi09: Undercarriage could be a loose muffler or punctured oil pan, you never can tell unless you order a comprehensive inspection before buying. There are sometimes hidden gems in BIN, some sellers don't just have time setting up auctions, reserve, counter offers.....

HeavenlyBang: Had a fun afternoon.
Awka is built around an interstate highway (Enugu-Anambra), so I have clean stretch of road to blaze around every day.
A favorite past time of mine is racing cars on that stretch of road. ES350's, RX350's, W204 C300's, and even a W205 C300 on time. Fun.
Anyway, I saw an FX at my back, so I moved over to the other lane with the intention to race. For some reason, they usually take up the challenge. I moved over and the FX pulled up beside me. And pulled ahead a bit.
FX45. Not FX35
Abort mission. The FX has a 15 HP/60 ft-lb advantage. It is heavier, of course, and I'd beat it 10/10 over short distances. At the top end, though?? I think I'd lose quite comfortably.
I guess I'm just a bully.  Bro, i need to ask u a few relevant questions because i’ve been a bit worrried. I sent my cuz some money yo get me a car on aunction sales. It’s been 2 months now and he hasn’t even come up with any car to show. Am not saying he wants to scam me neither am I worried that i could loose my money but he keeps saying the amount i sent him is making things difficult for him to buy thhe eithe of the choice cars i requested. From what i read in your post, it didn’t take long before you made your purchase with the help of Deltel. Is there anyway i can bid by myself or find a car at IAA or copart and send him the link to make the purchase? Please educate me |

IkpuMmadu: Bros Camry would not save him money in long run but Benz ...trust I know the reason j ran away from Japanese
My c class for the past 4 years I haven't even opened the engine ...the only thing I do is change oil and brakes
But Japanese it's tyrod today, bow joints tomorrow or jumping timing belt ( while Benz uses timing chain ) or leaking oil or stabilizer linkage or lower amp or engine sitting
Give worst us the blue smoke ! Japanese engines are not strong and their piston and rings weak ! Small time blue smoke
When was the last time you saw a Benz with a blue smoke....just keep watching
When was the last time you saw Benz in suspension failure
Japanese would not save you money at long run but it would save you money in the short run
Trust me
The engine of that camery is over 140k and it's not string the engine of c class or even the ML 320 I dey eye isn't upto 90k
Bros na true ... Benz or nothing now Copy that. Facts stated and i can’t help but agree with you. Is ok to buy a c class with mileage of over 180000km? |
Car Talk › Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Alfred2000: 12:54am On May 25, 2019 |
IkpuMmadu: Handling is ambiguous...to be honest, I have driven a c class for 4 years and I haven't even opened the engine or changes the plugs apart from normal services the only thing I did to the engine was engine sitting and air flow that's all
Well , they have to get a great Benz mechanic Got that. What model of kompressor do you drive. The year? |
Car Talk › Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Alfred2000: 1:59pm On May 24, 2019 |
IkpuMmadu: I have driven both...I do a C200 Kompressor and I have a driven a friend's Camry. I would go with Benz any time in terms of fuel consumption and handling ..Camry is just a paper in wheels Copied. I have always wanted going for the MB. My only challenge would be in the issue of handling or manitenance by the people i intend leaving the car for. Reasons being that am not based in Nigeria but would be visiting Nigeria soon and would stay for a few weeks. I was looking at a car my people can properly handle in my absence tthough. Because las las na still my car e be even if say i no dey to dey drive am steady. Haha. Someone suggested i go for the camry since I won’t be around to maintain it myself properly. What do you think? |

atiku07: My brother stay away from kompressor in my own humble opinion it is too complicated i will say it is not really good in our climes since u r not acting fast and de furious we kuku do not have good roads, and it is also prone to over heating my opinion on kompressor. However for the 4matic it is no big deal just a name to tell u it is a 4 wheel drive however the parts are damn expensive the shaft alone cost alot both new and toks we r talking in hundreds of thousand for brand new and a few tens of thousand if not a hundred thousand for the toks, we also have the arms to which are super expensive but if u get the financial muscle go for it it is a sweet ride but as a guy who owns c240 4matic 04 baba go for ordinary c240 or c320 with those u will never go wrong and most of it all always scan b4 they work on it as per no be Nissan Primera u dey drive the ride is all about Modules and Sams or simply call it a moving micro processor. Thanks for taking out time to school me, however i must confess that afraid is catching in going ahead to but eith of the models of the MZ. I might have to opt for the 08/09 Camry and stay away from unnecessary pressure. I hope this choice is also a good one. After all it’s just a car i want to use for my 2 months stay in naija before i fall back to base. I won’t also to cause financial stress to my spouse or my parents that am most likely to leave the car for. |
Car Talk › Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Alfred2000: 5:48pm On May 14, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang: 4matic is Mercedes' all-wheel drive. Drivetrain and suspension parts are very expensive. Buy a regular RWD C240. Thanks boss. Salute |
Car Talk › Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Alfred2000: 5:39pm On May 14, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang: If you're buying a higher mileage vehicle, go with the C240. It has a way more reliable engine than the C230. I'd aim for one under 150k miles, though. One last question. It there a problem with the c240 4matic? Because i read a post earlier when some adviced against buying the 4matic. Would you rather advice that i opt in for just the c240 without the said 4matic? |

timifakay: First strike out the Lexus... What’s your reason? |
Car Talk › Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by Alfred2000: 5:08pm On May 14, 2019 |
HeavenlyBang: The 2005 C240 has a reliable powertrain but is grossly underpowered. One of the most unimpressive V6's I've ever seen, and will honestly leave you disappointed. The ES330 has a 3.3L doing about 225 HP and 240lbs of torque. It's a more powerful car than the Benz.
The C240 is RWD while the ES is FWD. Handling of the C240 is much better than on the ES.
Maintenance and reliability is all for the ES. Part prices are about on par with Benz, but the ES will be way more reliable than the C.
Luxury is also for the ES. The interior is quite simply a better place to be in. Go have a sit in both cars, you'll understand. Interior build will also hold up much better than with the C Class–in my opinion all W203 interiors start to fall apart at high mileage and when they do, it's not pretty.
Mehn, buy the ES. It's a better car, pretty much.
Another cars you may want to look into is the ES350. I'm pretty sure you can get a 2007/2008 model with 3M these days if you search hard enough. Maybe a 2006 GS300? 2007/2008 Acura TL. 2007/2008 Infiniti G35. 2007 Mercedes E350. These are all better cars than the C240 and ES330.
Considering your criteria, I'd go for an ES350.
Feel free to ask any other questions about the C240 and ES330. I have extensive hands-on knowledge on one, and currently own the other. This information has been helpful to me considering that i had either of these vehicles in mind to purchase soonest. But perhaps I insist on going the 2005 MB c230 or c240, what range of mileage should i not exceed when purchasing? Most often i see miles ranging from 140-170km and i also see some from 190-210km and are even cheaper. Is there a problem with buying the c class with mileage that has 190km ? |
