Good day guys I need advise on this 2008 E350 I'm thinking of purchasing. Is it reliable as a daily driver to and from work(Roughly an hour's drive per trip)? What's the maintenance like? Are the parts readily available in Abuja? What's the average cost of maintenance......say.... monthly

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by kingreign(m): 7:07pm On May 01, 2023 |
TeeSha: That is at most an 06 W211. It’s not an 08 model judging from the side mirrors, taillight, bumper, foglamp and grille. It’s a good car but since it’s an old Mercedes, be prepared to spend some money fixing stuffs when they fail. If it’s a locally used car, pls be extremely careful and ensure you carry out due diligence before purchase. 2 Likes |

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Djreloaded(m): 8:35am On May 02, 2023 |
kingreign:Dispute with facts? Old mercs are money pits. Granted the E-Klasse sedans are fairly reliable, but something tends to break down every now and often, which makes it A MONEY PIT. And to worsen the scenario, it's a Nigerian used car with Nigerians having a perchance for negligent maintenance culture. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by kingreign(m): 8:38am On May 02, 2023 |
Djreloaded: How did you arrived at it being a Nigerian used car? |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Djreloaded(m): 12:28pm On May 02, 2023 |
kingreign:Because he asked questions only a user with the mindset of getting a Nigerian used car will ask.. Revisit the OP'S initial post. |

Please how good is the class c320 or 330 kompressor, how is the fuel consumption level and parts availability and can I use it for bolt or Uber biz? Thanks 1102: |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Ymguitarz: 6:42am On May 23, 2023 |
Please bosses I have a 2007 last batch c230 with the 272 V6 engine. What's the recommended battery capacity to fit in. I'm having an issue of battery drain and I'm trying to pin point the actual cause if its the battery(75amp) or the alternator which tend to charge but once loads like lightning gets on it or its on idle for a long time the battery seem to drain. Please help |

Ymguitarz: Fix the drain before purchasing another battery |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by nakoks(m): 1:55pm On May 23, 2023 |
Ymguitarz:Recommended battery capacity should be 100AH but that has got nothing to do with the battery drain issue.Get a good electrician to solve that problem. Even with the 100AH it will still drain. |

Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Djreloaded(m): 3:50pm On May 23, 2023 |
nakoks:I haven't seen maintenance freaks? Lol. Okay... There's no amount of maintenance that you'll do on an aging car; a mercedes for an example. Worn out parts, too many electronics that are likely to fail with time. Toyota, Honda, yes... But never all these German cars with their over engineered systems... SOMETHING MUST ALWAYS FAIL NO MATTER HOW MAINTENANCE AWARE YOU ARE. |
Re: Mercedes Benz Thread by Ymguitarz: 4:30pm On May 23, 2023 |
nakoks: Where I'm confused is that it doesn't drain overnight.... Sometimes it's when I drive out and go to the filling station and I had to restart the vehicle that's when it will refuse to start... And some times when the car is on idle I will notice the rev will drop and the alternator battery sign will show up. I'll have to rev up for like 5 seconds till it charges up again and balance... I can leave the car for three days without starting it and the battery won't drain but the moment I start it and it is on idle I notice it drains, once I REV up it charges, and most of the times if I off the engine and try to start it up at that point it won't start, I'll have to jump start it |
