As the comments there say, impressive that every detail on it appears broken (or missing) :grin:

The life of a 1995 Ford Escort in Africa:

Some cars die with dignity, some after prolonged torture.


Nice shape, compared with the undead wreck of a Peugeot 504 Break, I had my greatest taxi ride ever, in 2001 across Cairo.

Slightly better was the Peugeot 404 as taxi in 1993 in Hammamet/Tunisia.

But something totally different was the Mercedes 240 D [W123], I had a taxi ride in 1997 in Maspalomas/Gran Canaria - shiny mint condition.
When I asked the driver "Oh, just restored or a grampa-car?" he answered "No, original condition - 1.8 millon kilometers"

4.6 million is the current record, a Greek taxi driver ... https://www.autosieger.de/griechischer-taxifahrer-uebergibt-mercedes-mit-4-6-mio-kilometer-article3703.html

And he did receive a new C-Klasse for free.

(Probably could've gotten it much sooner)

27 persons in a tuktuk :

and people complain when they're 3 on the (small) backseat of my Peugeot 208 :grin:

tuktuk when stopped : " Oh no ! there is more ? " ..
then, when police makes them get out : " Finally... break time ! " ... :grin:

Thought I'd post this 1997 NYC video here.... Not exactly a car video, but I'm sure the Manhattan traffic seen is bound to make people here nostalgic... Not to mention the Twin Towers :sad:

(as a side note, I would've spent some time off and on the Eastern Seaboard a few years after this video was filmed; so a chunk of the cars seen here are something I would've seen in my childhood :grin: )

Submerged road in UK where people just dive in with their cars and look surprised at the engine failure... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAWPUUwtQck

Somewhat of a local tourist attraction. Lots of premium cars too because of a nearby golf club.

kind of long video but i think my cousin was right.. if we went there it would have been the first time we wouldn't make it to the closing time and almost get kicked out.. :lol:

I wish i did not took the decision to skip it.. a few rare birds in there that i might never get the chance to see again.. :ohwell:

Tesla Model X " dancing ".. don't know if Elon Musk plans to offer this feature in the option list but after seeing those rear doors going, i know why they're called "Gullwing " .. :grin:

Ooh, that's wonderful, antp! Especially the 100-year old "electrical vehicle exhibition/contest"! Rather cool too when viewing the site in it's French language, as well! :whistle: So good! I find it pretty cool to know a little bit of the history behind electric-powered vehicles from like, that time period! :grin:
