Even b4 I got the permit, dey didn't.

I'm very pissed. I took off the tint on my car because it wasn't factory tint. Now I wish I didn't.

So, basically, you tinted it yourself? How much for the permit? And is it legit?

I spent around 6-7k to tint mine completely, the permit will cost between 15-25k, as for legitimacy

HeavenlyBang we will end the trial here, these are the latest figures. And i don't intend to replicate them in the near future, the extra savings aren't worth the attention to details I've been paying minute things like braking and acceleration. Come to think of it, this is slightly better than the M35's cruising figures.

Lemme go back to my 1L per 5km, it was fun that way.

Forgive me friends and foes alike - Lemme derail small, still available for sale

Basically 7km/L, or around 16mpg. Not bad, but not great either, tbh. I can wring out 21mpg from my car by doing what you've done.

Omo, just drive how e dey sweet you. I don't even bother about these things when driving. If I wanted fuel economy, I'd have bought a Civic.

We're enthusiasts, we don't give a fook about fuel economy.

Yeah, but it's just annoying that the car came entirely tinted, then I took it off. Should have left it, in hindsight.

It's basically an E350, I believe. Check if balance shaft and timing chain/gear have been fixed.

My major problem with the CLS is the airmatic suspension when it fails. It's very expensive to replace when it goes bad.
