American FLOOD and ACCIDENT Cars Find Second Life In Nigeria by mowapa(m): 5:02am On Jul 24, 2011 |
i came across this very intresting article written by an American writer and would like share it with NL, about the dump Nigeria has become with Cars from USA, buyers beware of most imported vehicle. On March 29th, near Duxbury, Massachusetts - a small town of about 3,000 people 35 minutes outside of Boston - a 2005 Toyota Corolla was flooded by water, ruining the vehicle's electronics and littering it's beige interior with bits of grass and dead leaves. Soon after, the flooded car was sold at auction, but it didn't end up in a scrap yard, and it wasn't dismantled for spare parts. instead, the ‘05 Corolla came to Lagos, where it sits on a side street in Surulere, awaiting repairs and a second life carrying its new Lagosian owner. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/Home/5734936-146/american_cars_find_second_life_in.csp |
