My Love For Vintage Cars. by Nobody: 1:24am On Feb 26, 2015
I've always admired how Snoop glides on his classic hydraulics. Then I ran into a glistening wonder not too long ago. I couldn't help but take a snap then the people around informed me it's for sale. Now I'm tempted to go take a second look since they informed me it's working and they could start the engine.

I'm hoping there's someone here who is equally into these old beauties. cheesy

Vintage cars are awesome! Even stronger than the latest. However, they come with a huge price- sometimes. I'm a petrol head. I wish to have one or even four in the nearest approaching future. I'm still balling hard. May God bless our hustle till we give more testimonies.

Bro! You don't know how much I love them. I wonder if one won't look awkward driving one of those.
Yeah! They are more expensive but worth it.
I love the way it glistens in the sunlight after waxing. Damn!

Would you believe I pleaded so much for a classic benzie not to get scrapped. The owner almost sold it to scrap metal dealers for 50k. Couldn't believe someone was about to butcher that elegant beauty.
My cousin saved her and now drives it. grin

The Benz had a good luck. Gonna rate up for a vintage soon, like the Land Rover Defender.

My cauz is not the best when it comes to squeaky clean. grin



I'm actually contemplating if it should visit a pimping garage. I don't know anyone around. cheesy

The Land Rover Defender is actually one of my all time best Vintage. Looks like the G Wagon was modeled after it.

Lol, just wondering if any man on this thread, has seen this car being placed for sale at the Auto Section.

Did you spot the LR Defender in one of the pics?
Can you compare the price tag to that of others you see around?
What can you say about the owner?
I need Mentions...

There are lots of defenders around but not so sure if they're for sale. They'd definitely need to be worked on too. Their body'ks mostly in good condition but can't say much about the engine.

Vintage cars are rare to come by here iin Lagos but the one I came across was inn Maryland and I only took a pic of the behind cuz it was glistening in the sun.

I'd have to go back there to get a full picture and ask the price. The car looks like a cadillac too.

Thought u said u took a snap, upload the snap na..
The link i posted earlier is that to a pristine looking MB 200 for sale. The LR was one of the items the seller has.
If the vintage u saw is a cadillac, then i place my bet on Seville.

I saw the MB 200 and the interior looks decent. The exterior is also clean. Price now depends on the engine's condition.
I would envy whoever takes that aunty home. grin

I can't access the pic of the vinatage cardie ATM. I'd like to see images off the defender the OP is offering.


Are you interested in that one I saw? I'm afraid fiixing it would be a problem cuz thhe spare parts might be scarce. Except maybe it's just kept somewhere to be taken out occasionally.

I'll see if I can get it....it's a real vintage though.. Not so sure if I will be passing through the Maryland axis anytime soon but I promised myself I would check on the car again and have then start the engine.

Keep your fingers crossed bro! Maybe you we need to follow each other for PM and updates too.
