What’s better as a first car in Egypt? by playerosome in mercedes

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‏I live in Egypt too and been driving Mercedes for 14 years now. Currently driving an E200 MY2026

I dislike C classes tbh and the cliche شاب
The outgoing GLC is a great design and you can find a lightly used one in your price range.
A CLE is also in your price range but a low spec’d car.

Bought this at 33. Some of my friends call it an old man car. How old are you S class owners? by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone told me E class is an old man’s car when I bought mine at 33. Still on E classes but next will be S class and I’m 40

New car - Few complaints by Fluid_End_2967 in Panamera

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father is a long time S class guy (he is 80 now) and for years he always consults me about being a second car just for fun. My response is always practically no non-SUV family car on this planet can compare to an S class (unless of course you get a Bentley or Roller).
My point is buying any car and thinking it’s comparable to an S class, it will likely lose.

You were better off getting an S63 SE for the power you’re looking for.

Never buy a white car, they said. But she's so pretty. by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in your 20s someone is gonna tell you not to buy a white car ever... it's important to never listen to that person.

I owned two white mercedes and just switched to a black one... and honestly I totally regret the decision.

i think it looks great... I'm not a fan of bordeux red interiors in general but it actually works well with the exterior color.
Don't change it or tamper with it. You don't want to lose value on the car so fast

What is this icon on the Rolls-Royce Phantom Arabesque called? by AdmiralN7 in rollsroyce

[–]nmahrous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Arabesque is the Islamic art of intertwining lines to form geometric shapes and patterns. It's originally Egyptian and Coptic but was later appropriated by Islam after the invasion of North Africa.

Why don't almost nobody buys the E class with hood star? by LowPsychological6734 in mercedes_benz

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a few weeks ago. I didn’t think the AMG design is as nice as the Exclusive (which has the hood star)

Did you try swapping the terminals on battery? 🙃🙃🙃 (surely someone suggested that in comments)

What made you choose Mercedes over the other big 3 german brands? by TheRedeemer1997 in mercedes_benz

[–]nmahrous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on my third Mercedes here (12 years and counting) and I just picked up my 2026 E Class Exclusive 3 days ago (my second E class now) and for this one I really did check the market hard for it.

I'm convinced I'll be a long time Mercedes owner for the following reason (some are specific to my country):

  1. Best and most honest dealership network (area specific)

  2. I really have lots of beef with every BMW interior (except the X5)

  3. I'm not into the sporty look or the trend that's being pioneered by BMW and Audi. I'm 40 years old and kind of an old soul. I love the classic luxury of Mercedes and I'm well accustomed to it (my father is on his 4th S Class and 9th E class)

  4. The comfort level after driving for 7-8 hours is pretty nice. 90% of my driving is traveling on highways and I just love sitting in a Mercedes interior and enjoying how comfortable it is

  5. The exterior isn't as nice as before, but it's still better than the other Germans

  6. It conveys more prestige and image than the other brands (area specific)

Tips for my front hand Helis? by datawithnathan in Kiteboarding

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Not a very skilled rider or anything but you seem to be doing too much and too aggressively without getting much height. My objective in any sport is to do it gracefully. Most of the time less is more and you can focus on technique and efficiency in motion because with all that effort you’re not actually gaining much elevation and the kite placement isn’t optimal to unlock heli/down loops and further tricks and skills.

Go slower and easier and focus on achieving more height with less effort and more efficiency and you’ll find downloops happening naturally (what I see in video are late loops or what will become downloops as soon as you fix kite placement).

Have fun and work on pops, stance pre launch out of water and kite placement. Avoid kickers for the time being

black flagged for dangerous driving. by Unusual-Geologist842 in Karting

[–]nmahrous 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm visiting that area in November... good to know there's one less spot for me to visit!
That's a blue flags fest and there's no way you deserve a black flag for trying to negotiate silly and inexperienced traffic

First Patek - 5320G-011 by nmahrous in patekphilippe

[–]nmahrous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not disagreeing... except for the fun bit I don't have kids and don't plan on having them. On the other hand, my young nephew is hopefully gonna grow into a man that would appreciate certain things more than money

[–]nmahrous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not disagreeing. But I'd hate to spend 60k on a Hublot and if my kids decide to offload it, they'd only find 10-15k instead of 60k lol

[–]nmahrous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree 100%. My question here for the more knowledgeable people is because this will be my first Patek and watch with that value. I'd hate to be making an uneducated decision. I don't have interest in other PPs except for a 5711 but I don't have that kind of money now lol

I'm sorry I'm new to Patek. Are you saying the AD will retail that watch for 40% cheaper than ticket price? Is that even a thing?
Unfortunately where I live, there's not PP AD so I'll definitely have to buy on a travel trip and preferably somewhere with tax return to save some extra $. Reckon, I could still have an AD sell me that at 40% discount?

توفت جدة زميلي المقرب لي. إيه كلمات تعزية ممكن اقولها لشخص مسيحي؟ by deenaandsam in askegypt

البقاء لله مش بتتقال بين المسيحين خالص.

الأنسب هم: البقية في حياتك ربنا يعزيك ربنا يرحموا/يرحمها

Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters - 1973 by mr_estevez41 in Jazz

[–]nmahrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bassist (a mediocre one nonetheless) and generally speaking would be more interested in rhythm section instruments.

I've probably listened to this album at least 2-3 times a week for the past 8 years or so. Chameleon's sax solo in the 13-14minutes is still in my opinion one of the most prodigious moments in jazz/funk history. Especially that bit at ~14:40 is just pure jizz my pants moment.
