I greet you my people. Hope we are good? This thread or group has given or exposed us to more knowledge about the kind of cars we drive. But of recent, we have had more of fights than attending to people who needs urgent help. You will all agree with me that, whatever we argue upon here adds no penny to anyone’s pocket. Whatever brand of car we defend, remember that the manufacturers don’t know you and won’t pay you for buying their cars. Those who wish to buy a car of 20 years is their business not ours. And those who drive a car of 2015 and above is their business not ours. We all have our priorities, our priorities can’t be same. All of us were not born same day and even twins never came out same time. That’s to tell you that some sort of argument is very insignificant in our lives. When God created us, he did not come looking for any of u here to consult. We must not buy a car to impress people. Even if people keep praising the car from today until the world ends, that won’t gain you anything not even a ticket to heaven. So what is the argument about? We put our ourselves into seriously problem bcus we want to impress people. Those who praise or sing how beautiful ur car is, how much have they given you to maybe buy fuel or replace a broken part in ur car? So you can see that is baseless. We don’t buy cars bcus of people, we buy car bcus we are in need of it. If anyone here perceived that older cars with age of 20 years shouldn’t be patronized, the person can quickly seek for the ban of such importation through the National Assembly. Now for those who think buying a car that is not more than five or seven years, let me tell you it is bcus u have the means or that’s ur priorities. You think bcus u drive a car of less than five or seven years u are exempted from road crashes? Or the FG will call you and pay you? Whatever car we go for is based on our income and priorities. We all started from the scratch, no one was born and became rich over night. A process was involved in this growth.
I still want to remind us that, whatever kind of car we drive can never win us a ticket to heaven. We shouldn’t buy cars to impress people. Anyone who mocks you about the age of ur car is on his own and doesn’t have work to do.
Lastly, I want to implore us to respect people’s option. For one to come and seek your advice means such an individual has made up his mind for the car brand. All he’s asking is, which model among the brand will fit him. Let us fight less and enjoy God’s given grace.
Regards.
Funny enough most of them bragging can't even buy a tyre... I learnt one is just an NYSC member...

The most annoying thing is detailing the thread and measuring dicks.... Does age of a car means the worth of a man....

In places like Onitsha you see millionaires with 4 storey building and hotels everywhere yet they drive cars like 505 or Benz flat booth (230)

I wonder why they do this...and funny enough they have a group of stupid folks that are notorious of this ! They are like a cartel as someone put it here...

Here kids after watching movies would come and brag here .. even an NYSC boy . ... I was wondering why a matured man would be trolling never knew these are kids


Thanks for telling them the import of their actions

In other news, some people are of the opinion that men drive benz while boys drive japs...

This is a benz group and it should mean the members or contributors here drive benz and should be men...
Now I'm wondering what it means to be a man if benz truly is for men.

Unfortunately many of them are trolls they come here and compare their Nissan and Corolla with Benz.... That's the challanges we have been battling

We just want to share experiences... While some other trolls said that those driving 2005 Benz are relics and not advisable yet they drive 2000 Japs... And those that drive 20005 Benz upwards aren't complaining

I just came in from the Nissan/Infiniti thread and I saw useful questions and responses. Now coming to a Benz thread all I see are insults.

the answer to your question lies in the last 3 or 4 pages of this thread, but only if you want to be objective and unbiased

this is supposed to be a Mercedes thread, yet people like amudinkpa love to troll other automakers, he cannot go a single day without mentioning Toyota this, Nissan that, on a so called Mercedes thread

he makes fun of them, so some others decided to serve him back a dose of his own medicine

the guy has been crying for days because of that

the funniest part is that just because someone said he drives a 1999 ML320, the guy just lost his mind

he has tried to call on other Mercedes owners to support him, but they won't because he is a weakling

if you want peace to reign on your thread, stick to Mercedes topics and leave Toyota or Nissan alone

otherwise you are going to be crying daily for a very long time

Eh but that should not be enough reasons to spark off any insults.

No be our Papa get the Benz, Toyota, Nissan or Honda companies na.

There is hardly any vehicle that is an all rounder.
The Mercedes Benz is better than those Japanese autos in certain areas and vice versa.
We just need to learn from each other so as to know which brand to go for when buying our next vehicle.

Well I understand how it feels bro.

I have been a regular on nairaland for a long time. I know how such things roll.

But we just need to exercise a little more level of tolerance amongst each other.

I have been driving the Hondas and Toyotas since I started buying autos. I only joined the Benz club last year. And I can tell you that each of Toyota, Honda and Benz have their bragging rights in their own best areas. So I won't be surprised to see a person that drives a Toyota or Nissan all his life coming here to troll Benz users. Yes, like I mentioned before it can be annoying but let's just exercise a little more level of tolerance.

Calm down, do you want to beat him or shoot him on nairaland? grin

Make una calm down na.

I like rice and you enjoy eating beans; does it make rice better than beans?

Rice get e work for body and beans does also.

That's how cars are. No car is better than another in terms of "every".

The automakers have decided it to be so. That's what makes the market competitive for them.

Some of you speaking ill about one brand here will buy same brand in the future.

Kingreign can attest to it.

Cars are like women; before you get her, she's everything to you. Finally, you don get her. You've taken her to bed and then, you tend to lose attraction for her. You look for another woman and the cycle goes on (that's peculiar for the single and I'm not encouraging such in any way).

Does that make the previous lady not good for another man?

If you get a sound E350 that hasnt been abused,you don't have anything to worry about mechanical issues.Use the right fluids and service every 6 months .You will be fine,Benz engines hardly kaput except abused and the abuse must be severe.

Hi guys, so i see my question stirred up the forum a bit.
Well i think people are misunderstanding the phrase "bad guy around". I dont need to drive a recent or expensive car to make that statement"

Also 150k as salary is tax free and rent free.

From the comments, i think the C 200/230 is the right option.
Thanks all.

A man I share same street with has about 5 Benz vehicles. Few years ago, he owned two W163. One was his and the 2nd was his wife's. I think he also at that time had about two W203 (black and Metallic colours) mostly driven by his teenage sons.

Recently, he added or replaced the W163 with W164 (not sure if the W163 are still in his compound). Since I knew him, He has never owned any other brand except Benz, and not just one Benz. I can't really tell how many Benz he has now, but more than 1, and that I know.

Logical adult males find life fulfilment in different things in life that differ from other men, including automobiles. Some men find it in specific brands of vehicles, probably because of the brand signature/designs in all their vehicles (both new & old). Some find theirs in things that are not car related. It's up to you to figure out things that fulfill your life in your own path. Listening to another man to lead your life for you is something I find it hard to understand. Your first car won't be your last car. Worst case, you switch to a different car or brand next time, if the Benz brand didn't give you the fulfilment you desired.

I am not into Benz, I but I have as lot of respect for the brand, based on my personal observations on their road handling capabilities whenever I am on long distance drive. I have relations and personally know some people that own W202 & W203 that have never complained to me about the ownerships of their Benz. There are people that earn less than you said you earn and they maintain these Benz comfortably for years. Don't let anyone distract or push you off your own life path.
