 Cars have become a very important part of our everyday modern lives, mainly for transportation and for a few, a display of wealth, a show of luxury. Cars are a way to keep history, a nostalgic reminder of our past lives and this is what this classic car show, which recently held in Lagos, achieved. Cars love us from different parts of the country attended and owners show of their vintage cars. Some of the car owners tell us of how their love for vintage cars began. This is a 1966 Mustang Shelby Cobra and I've had it for about 7 years now. So it was handed over, so I had a family who had it for 50 plus years, so they wanted to sell it so I got it from them. When you drive these cars, you have to be attentive to what you're doing. When you drive a car that you can put a cruise control, you tend to get reckless. Now you have to be very attentive because you have to be sure what you're doing. You have to be in control to drive a car versus you have to push a button and the car drives by itself. But I've always been into them, I mean I drive the newer ones but I've always wanted something like this, I've always had them, I can walk on them myself if I wanted to, like change the oils, something very, change the oil, change the plugs, I can do that because they're a little bit easy to do. That's cars from the day my father taught me how to drive and in fact that's one of the inspirations for my own car, which is the classic Mercedes 2.6-litre 190E, so that's really, from learning how to drive and spending time with my father on Father's Day. I think it's important as any woman, if a car breaks down you must know your water levels, you must know the engine noises by heating, you must know your tire pressures, you must know weather, what kind of fuel you are having, the type of oil as well. So those things are quite important as you listen to the engine, car, things like that. Generally light cars as a whole from when I was young and I think there's something about classic cars that's just of a particular look, of a particular date for me in particular that is so attractive. Well you know that we have a lot of people who have an interest in vintage cars and this is why we have the club. So essentially it is Nigeria but look at the turnout today and we have members that didn't come today with their cars, so there's quite a following, there are quite people passionate about classic cars. The first car I ever drove was my dad's Volvo from the 70s, a P1800 Volvo and I'm still hoping I can buy one one day but that's the first car I ever drove. When I say drove, the car wouldn't start one morning, we're living in Europe, the car wouldn't start, so he had me sitting there, so he had my elder brother who had more muscles to push and he just showed me how to work the legs to jump started once we had some momentum. So I always tell people that's the first car I ever drove. Apart from the classic car owners, we met a Nigerian car designer who built his own Nigerian brand car called Twim Custom Cars Nigeria. We started Twimping Cars since 1984, we were concentrating on the Santanas, the VW Santana cars and we did a lot of those until they took the factory to China then we had to stop. That was the last car we customized or that we launched was 30 years ago, the Twintana Z1. Well it's not easy to own your own car brand, our cars are based on the Volvo XC90. The organisers emphasised the importance of the event. We'll be seeing people coming all the way, it's a family event, kids have brought their fathers out to celebrate Father's Day with them, I have a friend who brought her dad, he's an elderly statesman at this point, she brought him out to come and enjoy this event with us. If you look at it, classic cars are a way to keep history, especially as every car has a story. I think you're spot on, otherwise none of these cars, you have people still chopping cars up and shipping them out as scrap metal, you know, but if you preserve them, you have cars from the 19, this is a 1953 week, there's a Chevy from 1955, a Morris from 1964, my MG is from 1977, 46 years old now, so we are preserving history. We hope classic cars shows like this evolve to educational forums for families and schools, and who knows, it might just lead eventually to Nigeria's first car museum.
