A Nigerian man has shown off his 1999 Mercedes-Benz W202 in a video and was so proud of the ride. The car looked spotless.
A TikTok clip of the ride, which has gone viral, showed that some exterior care had been carried out on the car. Its rims looked classy.
Old but very clean Benz
The shiny body of the Benz had many praising him. Seconds into the clip, the young man (@realibraheem6) came down from the ride and closed it with ease.
Many people who reacted to his video said they loved that he was using what he could afford and was content with it.
Speaking with Legit.ng on the viral 1999 Mercedes-Benz W202, Ogundele Waliu Akindolapo, a car enthusiast, said he would not go for a retro car when picking vehicles to buy. His reason is that they do not hold value during re-sale. In his words:
"For me, a car is not an asset. And if I were to buy a car, a very old model would be a no-no. Though I appreciate what the guy did with the Benz, I prefer my cars recent and not far back."

The video has gathered over 100 comments with more than 5,000 likes.
