Which Of These Cars That Ruled Nigeria In The Past Was Your Favourite? by autojosh: 3:48pm On Apr 10, 2018
Today, it is the Corollas, Civics, KIA brands, Lexus, Hyundai, etc.

It was not always like so. Prior to the current dispensation, in Nigeria, other car brands reigned supreme. They were the popular cars of choice.

While some of these car brands series evolved and stood the test of time, some others simply faded out of attention due to their inability to withstand competition or perhaps bad business management on the part of the manufacturers.

Autojosh presents some popular auto brands that were the brands of choice before the year 2000.

So, which of them was your favourite?



Land Rover (1958)


PEUGEOT404 (1969)


PEUGEOT 404 Station-wagon (1972)


Peugeot 504 (1977)


Peugeot 504 Stationwagon (1978)


BMW 320i (1980)


Range Rover (1980)












Volvo-244 GL (1982)

Peugeot 504 saloon

My dad is addicted to this motor car.
Maybe because he doesn't need a mechanic to fix it when it's faulty.

He knows the car and the car knows him . grin

That old 504 reminds me of my first car sex.
When my neighbour stole his daddy's key which was a Peugeot 504
then and asked me to come and see something. He got me inside
and locked the door and bleeped the shit out of me that day.
He changed me that very day even though.
I was quite young and It was such a messy experience.

I will go with the Beetle. We never had the luxury of cars when growing up, so its hard to choose when you've never even touched one of them before.

W126 S Class, Volkswagen Santana and Peugeot 505 Evolution.


(We also had a blue Peugeot 404 Station Wagon).

The Golf GTI should be on that list.
