Why can't you learn how to use google? Instead of asking ignorance. Mara subaru VS fielder,mara xtrail/prado.

Shame on you

C & P

Dear Applicant

Thank you for your interest in the new Mercedes A-class.

Mercedes SA acknowledges your dream of owning one. We however regret to inform you that after looking at your pay slip - even after your Bonus and sale of your existing stock options- your application was unsuccessful and we do not see you affording a Mercedes in the near future.

We appreciate your dreams and your desires but ours is not a plebian brand: it is most definitely not for the lowly paid. We would like our customer profile to match our cars and vice versa. We would be glad if you don't forward your pay slip to us again. In the meantime, I have taken the liberty forwarded your details to TATA and Ssang Yong motors for consideration and exploration whether they might have a generic that meets your automotive needs.


Regards,

General Manager:
Mercedes Brand Management
Don't limit your challenges, but challenge your limits

@faraa I think in wazua forum anyone has got anyright to ask any question any time he or she feels so.Google is meant for lazy and barbaric people like you who don't like to gather more information from various people.

Why is a "payslip" guy planing to buy a benz?A benz is not a car for people with payslips,unless you are Kibaki.Buy a Nissan Sunny--that's the car for payslip people.

Merc's are cheap to maintain contrary to popular belief.

NJUNG'E>>>I was not talking about maintenance.I was talking about buying one.Plus,the other day I went to Lavington area and saw some benzes in a yard for sale.To be honest,its cheaper to buy a benz than this toyota cars.A toyota car is over-valued because the sellers know that every idiot will be wanting to buy one.But a benz,yes,it costs more but its fairly valued.There were some benzes going for USD 12,000.And they looked very good.But a toyota tin costing ksh 500,000 ---is just a tin.

The germany machine is durable comapred to the japan machine.Compare a 1990 benz and a 1990 toyota then you will see what i am talking about.Toyota ni jiko .For those who love comfort , durability , personality, safety because of car jacks then roll in a germany machine(benz) coz it will never let you down.I have one and it's superperb.

Ditto @ Njung'e

90% (at least) of the Mercs I have sent ni za watu wa payslip. i.e. C,E & S class

Cars will ALWAYS let you down....

Kizungu ni ngumu lakini, ama ni kujaribu kuandika baaday ya kupiga maji.....if you have one, mbona unauliza, ama ni jinsi ya kujipigia debe??

Natimai haujawai ona toyota hilux pickup, ebu uliza ya mwaka 1990 ni pesa ngapi?

Durability is all about the driver it rarely has nothing to do with the car,if you are one of those people unapakaa gari hadi vaseline it will still look good after years of use...There are some toyota 100,s year of manufacture 94-95 which look good and drive extremely well,ama hata toyot EE90...If am not wrong in one of the episodes of top gear they drove an old school Merc E190 and it did very well infact they claimed it had a superb chassis.

MAKA & TUVOK: As for me,I was not arguing about durability of toyotas versus benzes.No.I was arguing about the value as in cost--while buying.If I have sh 500,000 and I'm buying a toyota,I will only get an over-valued,expensive tin.On the other hand,Ksh 1m will get me a reasonable benz.So,even if I pay Sh 1m,its a better deal than an over-valued toyota jalopy of sh 500k.

I agree with you Ali baba Toyotas in Kenya are so overrated pushing the prices up plus there are better models than just the Toyotas we know...
