Why would anyone in Africa go thru such stressful and wasteful venture just to get better fuel economy?
Isnt it better to sell off the C280 and get a C180 or C200 or C220?
Hian
It's more like penny wise pounds foolish.


Well, to each his own!!!

he should have just buy a Toyota yaris or Kia picanto.... If he wants fuel economy

He can't be driving benz and bent on fuel economy its like driving a BMW and saying fuel economy... He still have corolla mentality

He either sacrifice fuel economy for comfort, safety, cornering and handling

Lol, I've driven quite alot of cars, that saying is nothing short of fables. Totally untrue.

Driving pleasure depends on you as an individual. What tickles your fantasy. Are you an adrenaline junkie, speed demon, you're just a point A to B or someone who love sheer luxury pampering?

If you're into sports and speeds, a BMW an Aston Martin, A ferrari, a Lamborghini, even an Infiniti will trump an average benz.
If you want a boring ride from A to B with utmost reliability, a Toyota and a Honda will do just that for you.
If you want pure undiluted whisper quiet luxury, a Genesis and a Lexus on the average is more quieter than a benz of same era, has more softer suspension with much more softer supple leather interior than similarly priced benz. But a Bentley, a Rolls Royce will do extremely excellently well compared to a benz in those regards.

A benz is good, very very good, but there are equally very very excellent brands out there and a benz isn't the number 1 when it comes to these.

Saying a lexus is quieter, has more softer suspension with much more supple leather interior is a sign of brain junk.

Spot on Chief. Send me your address make I send you fruit wine. You are one in a Million. We have never met before and The Two times we spoke over the phone prove your quality, experience level, maturity and professionalism(not biased) You are the type that mothers will say to, please “marry my daughter” no wonder your name Kingreign. To be honest there is no truth about the saying that if you drive Benz you no go wan drive another car again.This is unfounded school boy statement for those wey never drive other car brand. I have two ML SUV’s and I have driven couple of other car brand. To be honest there is no single truth in that statement. Omo BMW, Audi, Acura, Lexus and even Toyota XLE sweet die. Anyway, to cut the long story short me like my Benz die. Long live Kingreign

Guys, a Mercedes Benz c300 fan is not turning. I was playing with the fuse box because the pop up screen was not displaying. Then suddenly the fan just came on, without the ignition in it. After a while it stopped. But once I start the car, the fan doesn't start. Did I mess with the fan fuse? Who can help me highlight the fan fuse or maybe bypass the fuse then I can change on Monday

Park car and book Uber till you find an electrician to fix it dont go and DIY and spoil things further.
Though I believe it's a minor issue shall.

I believe every car owner should have;

1) A competent mechanic they trust that can always rescue them in a desperate situation and that knows and can get good parts for your car.

2) An electrician who knows his onions and understands your car like the back of his palm

3) An AC technician who understands your car and knows what works best.

4) 2 or 3 part sellers that can assist with genuine parts when need arises.

All of these don't come easy and most times you would have spent money, quarell and time to gain the loyalty of these people because they call their office[b] WORK-CHOP[/b] and not Workshop.

Someone like me now, I've them plenty as contact, if I need good tires I know who to call, good mechanic I know where to go be it the educated one or the kazeem, Rewire and part seller I have them and their loyalty all because ive paid my dues and above all I'm still always loyal to them.

Some times I can just branch, park at their workshop and buy them drink, gist and off i go.

This has made car ownership very easy going for me.
