Those are nice cars. They're actually newer than most cars on Bongo roads and are in good condition. They are also not the only cars on Kenyan roads. If I buy a new car and use it till its old yet still functioning, I won't just dispose it for the sake of it. The daladalas in Tanzania however are ALL old. like, there was no single daladala younger than 25 years. That's just weird.
FYI here are what typical cars on Bongo streets look like. Took the photo myself too.

Barabara zenu zimejaa Toyota and Nissan jalopies all over ,
Halafu unaongelea daladala? Hoyo madude yanaandikwa Saco how old are they ? And how do you guys commute on such things ? What about safety?
And why are they all Saco ? They look like they come from same manufacturer.
Hata buses za JKIA choka mbaya ,
Btw have you also wondered how JKIA ended up having more Massey Ferguson tractors than a typical large scale plantation field?
