Speaking of automobile industry, the past recorded cars manufactured at different countries holding some interesting memories about the shape, design and nick name tag to these cars.

In Nigeria today, some of these cars are still seen on the road even though it's almost extinct but most time such cars are being driven by old men.

Such cars are as follows;

1. Beetle

This is a German car manufactured few years after WW2. It's one of the all time most rugged car designed by volkswagen company as it is nick named "Ijapa" in yoruba dialect. Such cars nowadays are driven by old men within the age range of 55 to death do us apart.

2. Peugeot 504

This car reigned in Nigeria for decades due to its strong body metal and compatibility to our bad roads. It is only old men you see driving this car nowadays with huge "agbada" attire.

3. Pick-up

This is a haulage vehicle manufactured by peugeot company in the 50-70's. Despite the fact that it is almost off the road, you will still see old men driving it for business purpose.

4. Benz 80-98 model

In the olden days, anybody that is using Mercedes benz is automatically tag a big man even up till now. It is only old men most especially "baale or babalawo" you still see driving the model 80-98 series. Atimes you see the car plate number customised with their local name.

5. Nissan 120Y

This brand of car reigned between the 80's to late 90's in cities like Abeokuta, Ibadan, etc for commercial use (taxi). It comes with different model but the one common is "salake" as seen used by old men recently.

6. Molue

Those in lagos can bear me witness that this brand of bus is still driven by old men in routes like oshodi, iyana paja, abule-egba, etc. The engine smoke, insult from conductor and passengers make this vehicle a dramatic experience when you board it.

7. Tipa

This is a haulage mini truck designed by Bedford to carry loads most especially sands and rock peddles. This is still seen nowadays on roads driven by old men.

8. Citron

This is an Italian model bus car used for travel purpose in the olden days. Commuter users like Izuchukwu, Jide ofor, fear woman motors, etc used it for long distance journey to convey passengers. You can hardly see this vehicle on road nowadays and if you do, only old men drive it.
