A Kenyan motorist is living the ‘Fake it till you make it!’ slogan. This is after he converted his Nissan Teana into a Mercedes S350.
Photos of the ‘Mercedes Teana’ car have surfaced online.
The Mercedes S350 was spotted on a Kenyan road by a Mercedes Benz driver who snapped it and shared online.
The Mercedes Benz models are highly associated with luxury. It therefore went unsaid that the owner of the vehicle had decided to live the dream of owning a Benz through a creative shortcut.
In Kenya, some motorists are known to modify their cars in a bid to produce more desirable vehicles. John Kimani, a mechanical engineer, a few years ago designed and built Limousine from his Nissan Sunny B14. The 25-foot stretch black limo comes with all the features found in the original machine minus the logo, headlamps and other specs.
Kimani says that he bought well-maintained Nissan Sunny B14s and started the process of interlocking them for more than five months before the limo was used by the first couple. “Initially, I thought it will not take much time or cost a lot, but around 25 men had to come in under my instruction and close supervision all the time,” explained Kimani.
