That's not normal. I will advice you go to any church you know that God sure exist there for prayers.

[quote author=Rossy_Bentley]I'll advice you to either sell this car and get another one, a friend of mine has this car too, there was a day we went to drink, he took the car key and told us he's leaving, when getting to the car he was drunk and he mistakenly opened another man's car, (same car) and he then drove it home, when getting home he decide to check the save to pick some money, that was when he realised that wasn't his car, he quickly returned it, meanwhile the owner of this particular car is still at the same joint drinking and not knowing anything.[/quote]So because someone displayed his foolishness as a result of being drunk now means inverted hammer should sell his own car or did inverted hammer mention to you that he's a drunk like your friend?

Btruth: Wonders shall never end! what about 406 Prestige car? Hope those are safe oooo.

As far as am concern,any Japanese vehicle(top on the list is Toyota while Honda and Nissan follows) is a good market for armed robbers. But European,American,Chinese and Korean vehicles are bad market for them.

Bro forget about that car because my very close friend's own was stolen at gunpoint at Mafoluku. When he narrated the ordeal to me,he swore never to buy any Toyota vehicle again. The same armed robbers that robbed him also snatched 2 Toyota Corolla,1 Camry(his own which was over a year old),1 Toyota Highlander and 1 Toyota Rav4. His own was the worst because he lied to them that there's no security installed in the vehicle thinking they will just kick him out of the car but he never knew they will drive it with him but after like 30mins of driving,the vehicle was off and that was how they knew that it has a security installed. He said they beat the hell out of him and after he showed them,they threw him out only with his boxers.

So why buy a car that you won't be able to go out at anytime.

thug: which of the yr model is better in terms of less problem and cheap maintenance

My brother it all depends on how much money you have budgeted for purchasing your car. The pic you displayed is a 2007 C230 which is a 6Cylinder naturally aspirated engine while the 2003 C230 is a 4cylinder supercharged engine. The prices are different as the year increases. Your budget will determine the year you will be able to acquire. All are good.

inze: This (car pix) is not a 2003, going by the interior. It's an 06 upwards if am not mistaking.

Yes the car pic is not a 2003,it is a 2007 pic he displayed.

thug: thanks for the piece of advice but how rugged is the vehicle

Mercedes Benz has been known for ruggedness so the 2003 C230 Kompressor is also part of it.

thug: this is the model of mb i want to buy
so i need a frank advice about the cost of its maintenance and servicing plus fuel economy and common problem associated with it.

The vehicle is very ok and very economical if you have checked and confirmed that the electrical and mechanical aspect of the car is intact i.e certified OK. The maintenance cost is very reasonable provided you make use of genuine and recommended parts(coolant,engine oil,brake-pads,oil filter,etc) for your regular service as at when due. You will also need an experienced mercedes benz mechanic for your services to avoid any problems.

This ride has a good fuel economy better than some japanese cars and you will attest to this yourself when you buy. But like i said,just make sure that the condition of the ride is ok before you buy.

DailyNews: Sorry pls, for so many reasons I have stopped responding to PMs on nairaland...its not only urs...u can ask me the question here and I will answer u. Forgive me pls...its just we Nigerians aren't cool to be nice to at all.

No problem,atleast am cool that you saw the e-mail but due to decisions best known to you made you not to respond.

DailyNews: God bless u...he won't understand how it feels until he falls victim. But for Nigeria to grow literally and otherwise, we must fight against piracy, copying without reference and all forms of plagiarism cos it destroys a nation and discourages creative people from sharing their creative ideas. Wonder y I stopped opening helpful threads on nairaland and even made my blog hidden Its cos of people like this poster. I have fought with Linda Ikeji before, so don't think I can't take this up, its just that the poster is anonymous and not benefiting financially from this article u posted here if not, I would have showed the poster whatsup. Sighs

Daily news, abeg respond to my e-mail now

Old gist

Gold Circle Condom.

Eberex: well not actually on his hair, its on his mustach and thus he is always clean shaving. He misses those days when he leaves his bears which makes him look more good looking.

The one on his mustach is even nice too except it doesn't fit him. Let him appreciate his nature the way it is and not worry about it.

thegame: chai, which kind reply is this? this is sooooo UNTRUE. corolla sports is never full option op. as a matter of fact, LE is a higher trim than sports and XRS, if available is always the highest option. (thats like the XLE v6 of camry). dont let anyone misfeed you, corolla sports isnt faster in any way. only the sideskirts, spoiler and padded fender and bumper makes it different. if that counts as full options to you, then accept it as full option. but know this, LE trim is higher than sports in terms of options. and XRS is the full option

What makes my statement Untrue? I said the Sports is like a full-option and NEVER said is a full option so don't quote me wrong. As for the XRS i stated it clearly that it depends on the year of manufacture so read my message again before you comment. Also alloy rims are never standard on the LE but it is on Sports and the drive pleasure is never the same because have driven both on 8hrs journey prior to making further research on both trims. If your choice is LE,just say it and not that you will mention that LE is higher than Sports which i disagree.

thug: Hello house, I want to buy 2003 Model mercedes benz C class compressor, and i need an advice from people that have used it before base on common associated problem, fuel economy, cost of maintenance and the availablity of its parts plus it cost. thank you as you contribute base on your experience .

Brother you do not have an issue at all. Just go ahead and purchase that machine if that's really your choice of car. You can as well visit the Mercedes forum on nairaland for any other information you may require. Good luck

And what's wrong with your friend having white hairs or grey hairs in his early thirties? Something some people are looking for and he has it free of charge. Well for me i don't support the issue of applying dye.

Corolla Sports is like a full option corolla among all the trims available (CE,LE,Sports and XRS depending on the year of manufacture) Corolla sports is always more expensive than the LE version. Some LE doesn't come with an alloy wheel but it's standard on the Sports trim.

You can use the google search engine and check out the images for comparison with other year models but note that from 2003 to 2007 and some 2008 has same body but features differ.

But my advice is if you have the money and the environment you stay has good road you go for the sports edition because you will enjoy it but if you have bad roads,go for the LE. Reason is because the sports has some padded stuff around it and it's close to the ground level.

That's never going to work when we have very good painters both local or doing an oven baked work. Some armed robbers steal cars to re-sell while others steal cars to dismantle and sell parts. The only good idea to me is to buy a car that doesn't attract the thieves. Japanese cars in general has a very high risk to theft so it depends on what your friend is driving.

swiftycool: Hahaha I see what you mean, but I can asure you am not that kind of guy. Though your advice is true and precious so ill take it to heart too. Thanks

It's not written on the face oh swiftycool so don't do like that and kwaja another man's wife. The points made so far are enough for you to take a decision.

Giving the man the job is not the solution to the problem because the wife is already talking dirty with you despite her being in her matrimonial home. Imagine her saying she can carry your baby secretly. I will advice you ignore your EX and her family completely because i foresee danger on the long run.

Do you sell engines or you have someone that sells? I need to know the price of 2007 Toyota Camry LE engine.

Smart brazillian Bra

danadam: @Eyop & Gee2728

I bought her in may 2013 with 250,000 km and I have added over 20,000 km to her. She gets a clean bath every 2 days. I intend to keep her for at least 5 yrs. When the pay is available, I will get a smaller ride (golf mk4) for my local/city runs while the W203 will be strictly for highway travels.

wow! 5yrs I can bet you that when the pay arrives you will be think of something more recent. That ride was well maintained for it to have a mileage of over 250,000 and still looks very clean and sharp. Maintenance is the key my brother and so far you are doing a great job. Keep it up

aikerism: "The Kompressor (W202) and her big bro (W203) after a clean bath."



W202 and W203 who senior? Who dem 1st born?... Pls uncle Danadam rephrase that statement before your W202 go vex enter limp mode ...

Your rides are clean... Thumbs up Sir!

W202 will understand oh

Gee2728: wise choice bro. am also planning on doing a major shake down early next year too. i want a v6 or v8(am open to suggestion) merc for the long trips to maiduguri from kaduna then am gonna trade in my w202 for something small for the local running's.

That will be great Gee2728 so it means you are eyeing the W204 i guess . When you mean something small,does that mean you will be switching to the Japanese? I really do love the W204 a lot but all that depends on individual's choice but why V8?

Very true but what do we do? All i know is that God sees it all.

JulianBond007: I wish him all the best. There's no harm in trying.

And there's no harm in loosing

danadam: Lemme drive like a great grandpa (i doubt i will have the patience), maybe I can achieve more kilometers. The traffic gridlock is also a pain in the a** but i'm gonna give a try.

The Kompressor (W202) and her big bro (W203) after a clean bath.

Your W203 is cool bro. You've already done over 270,000 miles on it that's serious bro except you bought it with a high mileage. But all the same,sweet ride.

segzy14: do u have a floor plan for this? What level of work do u want the estimate for?

I don't have a floor plan yet for it but it will be from foundation level to roofing level i.e start to finish. There's a bungalow on it but will be demolished for a fresh construction.

How much will build a 2 storey building? The breakdown as thus:

Ground floor will be 3bedroom flat at the back side and the front is mini warehouse.

1st floor will be 3 Bedroom flat on the left and right but ensuite

2nd floor will be 3 Bedroom flat on the left and right also ensuite.

The building is for commercial purpose,what should be the estimated cost?

Location is Surulere,Lagos
