The model of Mercedes SL that you mentioned from the 1960s is now worth over $100K USD which is over 100 million naira at today's exchange rate.

How nice , I used that road to Minna then from kaduna. I always visit my friends in FUTMINNA & I had 1 babe I was loving too . @ least I go there twice in a month with the benz regular . I remember following that bad & deadly roads & you see villagers using leaves to cover themselves .

That was then. That particular road is a dead trap now, crawling with Bandits. Sarkin pawa hills was Bandits major camps. That was where Bandits and their criminal activities started and spread to other parts of Kaduna and Niger.

Government refused to deal with them when they were only located in their camp around Sarkin Pawa. Now they have build up an Army for themselves. They have also spread to other parts of this Country.

Airforce would've thrown a Bomb on their Camp then, maybe Bandits would've been history in this Country.

GAZZUZZ:
I still own the cleanest 190 in Nigeria.

Argue with pics pls .

My ride that year. My love for this car na till infinity.
When I don blow...among the maybach and Bentleys, there will still be a pristine 190E.

Gazzuzz give us more views. Inside and back view.
I'm feeling nostalgic right now. My 190E and I created so many fun memories.

My dad owned a Peugeot 505 a Benz 230 e regular and a Benz 190e at different times though.

Rest on pops. You were the greatest. Love you till death

MS2471:
I love Shagari style Mercedes Benz soooo much

Spring seats

Back AC vent

Auto drive

Oh u mean there was back ac vent?

Beremx:
My father didn't own a car back in the 80s so I have nothing to say. His first car was Nissan. I can't remember the type of model.
Okay it was Nissan Sunny

U must be a yeruba man

Lol

Brother, like you know that route more than me , last time I followed there was 2014 & I left Minna in the evening getting to kaduna around 9p.m , during BH terror , it was still scary following there though , as roads were terrible & always lonely . Govt ignored those bandits too much thinking it was a child's play .

All of them are nice. After driving a Benz i ve never driven any other car, so far i have driven atleast 4 different models of Benz, not cheap to run but one of the best.

All the ones I have driven and ones that have not.

My favourite is the 230 E regular which was my pa's second and favourite after Volkswagen Beetle Model 1300.

I drove the C220 and that was something. I refuse to buy any model car since these years because of my addiction to Mercedes Benz. An idiot swindled me of my hard earned pension.

Well life stories that touch the heart.

There are two cars in the world: Mercedes Benz and others.

W123 all the way

Timagex:
Our landlord used that 230E and a Peugeot 504 back in the days. His son looks for every opportunity to remind us that, his dad owns the car and the house.

Time humbles everybody and everything.

Just couldn't stop laughing, life sha. How far with the landlord's children now.

The 1953 model is the one I took to My in-laws house on our wedding day in 1962

Yes. I know that side very well. All those Communities along Kaduna Abuja express Road. Pole waya, Which is the Village at the junction of Sarkin Pawa, from Laduna-Abuja express Road.

In 2014, those Bandits were always sighted by Farmers on Sarkin Pawa hills. Their Camp contain everything that is available for human habitatiin. From Water, drugs, food, power generating sets, plus Ashawo Girls. But Government kept treating them with kid gloves.

In 2014, that Road was very lonely. Travellers avoid the Road. Except Farmers. I used to visit that side between 2008 to 2011. Everything was okay then. No security threats at all. But today, no one can drive through that Road successfully without getting robed or kidnapped. Even Farmers and the Villagers are not spared. Most Villagers around Sarkin Pawa have fled their homes for so many years now.

In those days, one Farmer from that side can provide 2 Trailer load of Yams at a go. They produce Yam, Rice, Maize, Soya Beans, Sugar cane, Groundnut, White and Brown Beans, Milet and Honey in large quantities.

Sarkin Pawa market was in international market. Business men and women come from Niger Republic, Chad and Cameroon to do business there. But today, nothing is happening in that Town.

We left their house more than 20 years ago. 😁

Now Mercedes-Benz is no more reckoned to be among the reigning automobiles of today

Hmmm!!! Are you sure? From your assertion, i know that you are not in Abj. Here, Mercedes is in its own class. The latest C and E series are not for everyone ok.

Mercedes is still miles ahead of others.
