Correct Guy, lol on the short guy thing
Seems youre pretty much inclined towards the SUV market based on your reasons. I seriously wish I have driven an x3 prior to now. I myself saw one 750 il the other day and was like if my hand touch this motor I swear na Kaduna and back even if na test drive.

Can I ask what made you consider the Eclass at all sir?

Lol like the basis of this discussion I'll be truthful to you I have never been privy to driving the x3. The E class however...mehn!

The x5 that was one mean machine I drove that beast along the lekki express once like that through the roundabouts and didn't have to slow down for nada...the beautiful part? The handling was superb, you know how youre doing something seemingly dangerous but the car feels and behaves as if it's a dance with the road?
Unfortunately conditions haven't been so favourable to the x5 over time they get outta shape rather quickly.

In your choice between both cars I can tell youre a man who enjoys life and is not really bothered about second hand value. No worry my brother as a man thinketh so is he...money dey!

Consider this though one is an suv the other a sedan. Whats your basic route like? If you would driving mostly on bad roads the x3 would be a wiser option.

Then seriously how much you love to drive comes to play...alot! If you're like me who likes loves to see how far you can go. Ikeja to vi on third mainland every Sunday the sedan in this case the Eclass has far better stability between the two I tell you. Then you will see all those Japanese cars will start trying to show themselves...Guy like i always say first experience it I swear you will...no worry just try it first.

So really you have to consider what suits you but off the top of my head I see the Eclass as a better option Drive one now. Getting another soon but if God bless me pass as I plan ol boy If you see anybody with cls 55 on top bridge on Sunday e fit be me I abeg clear road Well

Port Harcourt – About 50 heavily armed soldiers mounted heavy blockade around the family residence of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Barr Nyesom Wike as early as 6am today.

Vehicles were thoroughly searched before being allowed to drive through Wipey Junction, a very busy intersection close to the family residence.
At about 6:40 am the soldiers were seen emptying sand bags from one of their trucks.

Effort by Vanguard to take shots was rebuffed by one of the soldiers who appeared like the head of the troop.

Pedestrians were seen raising their hands as they walked pass the soldiers who took strategic positions with their riffles

I'm certain even you would agree that driving a car is quite different from visiting a photo studio.
What is a car?
Is it the dashboard interior and layout?

I've told you all I should drive the car,experience the car and see how far it moves your senses or do you see the guys at top gear or any other car show going on and on about the interior of a car without actually experiencing the thrill of driving? I have driven both cars on different occasions and I've told you which is better. Accepted some people are not driving enthusiasts maybe what they want is a monolith that occupies space and announced their presence fine but for people who truly enjoy driving it takes a whole lot more than looking at interiors to get them to say I'm comparing one car to another. I won't come here and argue about an Aston Martin for instance and compare it with probably a maseratti just because I've seen their interiors sir. Id drive both cars sir. In fact Id fire both cars till the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and then I'll make a choice. The Lexus jeep is nothing I repeat nothing compared to the s class in terms of performance. Please experience both cars...wait..how do you come off comparing both? Let me ask you, what is your basis for this my good sir?

So if someone gives you an option to select between the s class or Lexus you would go for the Lexus?

yungboss:
Nice thread.

abatically:
U are getting him wrong. He didn't in anyway say the lexus is better, what he said is both can go head to head even though the merc is the better all round ride. But the fact remains the difference between a Lexus Ls460 and Benz s600 is not too far off as u guys put it. For the fact that the Lexus goes for about $90,000 while the merc is above $150,000 says a lot about what Toyota has done with the Lexus. The Mercedes Benz badge alone is an additional $20,000 on the merc. FACT.

Japanese car owners no dey gree. Seriously I was once like that and I know how they see things. So talk like this from now till the second coming, dem no go gree.

I used to own a v6 camry (voltron) full option of course being v6 what more would you expect? when it first came out after much tiny lighting and stuff. In my mind then ehn nothing you could tell me about German cars I would tell you my voltron was the defender of the universe. Till one sunday like that on third mainland when one Eclass like that effortlessly out me in my place. I still did not gree o. Time now came to upgrade was hoping to switch to the new model camry. When they released it, I was rather disappointed in the body shape, I don't know it just didn't work for me.still doesn't. That was how one car dealer asked me to come and check out one c class he felt would be a great deal for me. God knows I went there just cos of the respect I had for the man cos I was like whats wrong with this man? Which kain c class?
Long story short when I was to test drive the car the door of that car alone when I tried to close it, ol boy! Princess Diana's death is a bigger mystery to me now. Then I drove the car. God! See suspension along that aguda road before it was tarred. I repented immediately. So when I tell you to first drive a merc before passing comparisons it's not cos I want to burn data. Me o as of today o I can't see myself buying anything outside mercs again let alone those Japanese toys...seriously the balance I get when speeding with the E class I finally settled for is uncanny. I now be'z the one overtaking japs on Sunday drives on the bridge.

Seriously if you love the act of driving, you have absolutely no business in the Japanese aisle. Why do you think they have all those alphabets for their models? In waiting for Lexus zz. sef Mercedes already has an answer for them 4Years prior.

lomomike:
They've been here even before you came, but they wanted you to keep talking

segxi1960:
A friend was disposed of 250K, around Aya a couple of years ago too.

The guys in the back seat strangled him from behind, till he produced everything in his pocket and the money in his bag before dropping him off on the road.

MSItachi:
They attacked a colleague last year November. In abuja. Took all that she had on her. Took her to atm collected 260k from 3 atm accounts. Asked her to call people. She know to transfer more money. That the amount is too small or they rape her instead. After much begging they let her go and gave her 1k for taxi say she is bad market. Mind you this was drop O 'taxi' someone hid in the boot.

For a moment please lets leave the reviews we read on the internet.
One question...

...Just one question.

Have you ever driven as s class? Please don't think I'm trying to insult you or anything like that but seriously have you driven as s class before? I mean really driven one. On the highway? The day I drove one, I knew the Germans were not ordinary humans. Lexus? Please ehn even the oga of Lexus in his mind Cant be happy with you talking like this. Pls just try a test drive in an s class first then come and let us know the truth about the experience. You think it's joke when world leaders ensure they buy the s class abi? You don't think they are Lexus too when they're buying?
Chai Benz don suffer. Lexus!?

jacabi:
Eeh!
Not all accicdents are caused by over speeding but please whenever you board okada and you notice the speed is becoming abnormal and if you tell him to reduce the speed but won't listen. Use style to drop your shoe and tell him to stop in order to pick your shoe. When you come down, bid him bye-bye and tell him the reason.

Me I sha know without Ibos, Lagos will not develop. Look at the important fields of interest they are well known for.

Prostitution, selling of fake video game discs, fake cds and dvds, fake drugs, peddling of hard drugs, piracy, selling of gala on the highway, selling of okrika clothing items, selling fake vehicle spare parts, importing substandard china goods, importing and exporting aba made clones etc.

This activities are very vital to the economical success of Lagos.

We cannot do without them

They are very vital to us . Pls oba Akiolu, don't kill them for us. We also love their girls with their flat bald heads, moustache, yam legs, and hairy limbs

since u want a car, DAT salary is OK, I wonder y alot of people think you have to earn 200k and above to own a car.
if you can save to get a toks or good naija used car, all you need do is just to fuel and do routine maintenance NUREY has given you breakdown, dat is on the high side.
using a car is beta n saves alot of stress, though I don't stay in Lagos, 2500 fuel will last me a week BT if I consider public transport will b spending @least 2000, now think of d stress from one taxi to d oda, no privacy, sum ppl will just talk to u any aw, d stress n discomfort, I bliv if am paying 500 for DAT, it Worth's it.
bro go 4 d car n u won't regret.

cocoduck:
sorry the website is alldatadiy.com
good automotive technicians are hard to find in Nigeria, you have to be computer literate which I believe you are which I know you hardly find among thos road side and shade tree technicians

once again YouTube and alldatadiy.com and various car repair forums are your very best friends

MizMyColi:
Have you been a one chance operative?

Homguy:
I give up.

MizMyColi:

Thank God!

Reminds me of my experience.

That's how I entered one last month at Isaac John Ikeja.
It was a cab going to Maryland.
I had to hop in because it was raining.

I became unsettled immediately I got in. 1 guy and 1 lady at the back.....muttering in undertones.
The guy on the passenger seat, big head, muscular body, weird short dreads. Okay na.
There was this weird smell in the car.....that, I could manage.
Next thing I knew, they switched on AC o and wound up the glasses
On Top 50 naira Transport fare kwa!
I was suspicious.

***Modified***
I forgot to add I suddenly became veeery sleepy!

A few blocks after the Visafone office, the driver started their usual format
"Omo, I no know as I want tak do this thing nau...
Immediately I heard that, in my mind I be like "aahh, this one na gobe"

The car was in traffic and on slow motion, and immediately, I pulled the door lever.....
I was going to jump out!

They became somewhat frantic and were like "Watapun?"
I told them I want to get down.

Then they asked in Unison; "Why?!"

"I forget sontin"...I replied

I even offered the driver 50 naira sef, he told me not to bother.
and then he bade me goodbye

I'm alive and well to tell this story, roughly 1 month later.
Somebody Shout Hallelujahhhh!

Whenever ure in the mood, drug him and send him to dreamland; not before adding a little something that will get the part of him you really need most at an attention. Tie his hands to the bed post. Legs too. Just in case the drug wears off. Pls dont overdose. We don't want you becoming a widow. Then hop on and ride yourself to glory land. By the time he wakes up sore and confused, be kind enough to tell him what u did. And let him know that you intend to do it again n again n again unless he offers it freely. Pls at this point, the expression on ur face should be as that of a child who has done something bad but still looks innocent. Then watch him comply. Thank me later.
