735i: If truly your ride was imported with above 200k miles and it’s been simple maintenance ever since for you then you’re luckily among the 10% of bmw high mileage owners who haven’t been touched by the devil within the beast Even online reviews about bmw from the ones who use them new before shipping to us down here say the exact same story |

Conner44:One can actually code it to operate that way. But naa... I love this way. |

Conner44: Got it at 197k miles. The maintenance history was 95%. Single owner who did a lot of interstate travel. You should read the reviews from European owners. 350k miles on BMW diesel engines without any major part replacement is very common. North Americans just don't have the temperament and skills to maintain BMW's. 1 Like |

9icetoo: Lool ..Toyota fan boys would bring up anything to disparage BMW .. Baba drive one for a week or two without thinking of what iffs ..just enjoy the drive ...then we can have an honest conversation,on why driving a soulless box is boring |

735i: I agree with the bolded above. They are the ones who give the most reviews online concerning that brand. But if yours truly came from America I’d say you’re one lucky sonfabish to have it so pristine and with a history of just one owner. |

Antihelminth: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. 2 Likes |

9icetoo: You don't need those ...just concentrate on the road and sheer power under the hood that's the only way you can truly enjoy the drive |
Re: Awesome Reasons You Should Buy A Bmw In Nigeria by sexyto(m): 3:20pm On Oct 09, 2022 |
Antihelminth:Just educate people on the awesome experience of owning a BMW, or have you ran out of ideas, ignore the nay Sayers. |

Antihelminth: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 |
Re: Awesome Reasons You Should Buy A Bmw In Nigeria by Antihelminth: 9:17am On Oct 10, 2022 |
sooperrescue: 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 |
