eddiense:


Please do you have any 318 with 4 cylinder. I urgently need it.

erico2k2:

Ok well I have driven BMWs since 2004 till date I own a 320D

erico2k2:

I have driven from Lagos to PH, that's the furthest I will go. Well just as you said, just because you had a bad experience with you 4cylinder engines does no mean all 4 plugs are bad engines, do not forget, we are not talking Toyota here, cars like BMW ,Audi, Mercedes and VW are in a different league when it comes to automobiles. The best engines are the Diesel Engines, you cant beat those.

erico2k2:

1st assumption is wrong as I did drive a 318 in Nigeria from 2007 to 2010, I was in Nigeria for that duration. There is almost no road in Nigeria where you can get the pleasure of your HP from a car cos B4 10mins of putting your foot down bad road shows up. Unless you are driving a car with dynamic suspension like the range rover then Yeh. My BMW then came with 120miles I bought it from Germany.DO not just judge a 4cylinder engine as less power then you should just look into the xdrives and the VW Golf with a 4x4.

erico2k2:

What's wrong with the Bolded? have you used a BMW318 B4? I used a 318i for 4 years none of them problems you listed up there. what yah fail to understand is this, the vast majority of drivers i n Nigeria pour groundnut oil in their engine in the name of servicing.
Talking about the 318i have you seen the 2022 318i

eddiense:


Forget it. I have been there before, I can take care of myself. Just give it to me

erico2k2:

sexyto:

I heard it is one of the best engines for it to be this bad must mean a lot of neglect or abuse.

sexyto:

What engine is This?

InvertedHammer:
/
BMW 750i 2007?

I hope you know that this is only the beginning of your problems.

If I were you , I will sell it now that you still can and buy something reliable.

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.

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. Fuel is the major problem of the BMW and nothing else

sexyto:

Ogbeni, so I thought you will talk about things like,how to maintain the car, how to source parts, the best engine to buy etc
Well it's OK do your stuff man must wak.

sooperrescue:

This one still dey road o

sexyto:

Just educate people on the awesome experience of owning a BMW, or have you ran out of ideas, ignore the nay Sayers.

9icetoo:
Just saying

CzarBillion:
Which off road BMW would you recommend u knw as our roads deh for here.

9icetoo:

1. I don't drive a Toyota.
2. I had access to and drove an e90 for an extended period of time. E46 too from same owner.
Something was always broken at one time or another.
3. I don't drive a Toyota currently but I'd still buy one today.
4. I drive an Acura currently and it's more than capable. In it's day, it was head and shoulders above anything the Germans had to offer in the same engine capacity and vehicle class (in terms of handling, speed etc).
5. Reliability ratings on the internet do not lie.
I can get up and go just about anywhere at anytime with my Acura. No one that I know of who owns a BMW can do that without needing major repairs for one or two issues.

BMW make good cars (I'd own one if I had all the time to entertain mechanics) but to praise them to high heavens on reliability is folly.

Like I told you earlier, hype your brand. Leave the useless comparison alone.

Lejeun works on Range Rovers and does so quietly.

Sooperrescue attempted what you are doing now and it didn't end well.

Last response.

Das Beste oder nichts

735i:

She's too loyal to agree to follow you. If you are in Lagos, we should arrange a meet up.
You can drive her to Epe and back. Let's see if you tame the animal under the hood.

kingreign:
If bmw are truly worth the hype, why don’t commercial vehicle operators and fleet management use them like the way Japanese vehicles are used. Try using a BMW for bolt or Uber for 4months if it survives it, come tell me how much you spent on maintenance and let a bolt or Uber operator using a Corolla bring his own maintenance log book too!

OfficialDJ:
this is the only post I agree with you.

Truly disgusting interior dashboard styling...


Looks like Shrek if he went near the sun.
