Gotta give it to the car mechanics here in Algeria...they must be good judging by the age of some of the cars you see on the road with the engine actually running and propelling the car forwards!
The Renault 4 in the pic below was a 1967 model (older than me, LOL) and I snapped the pic just before it drove off. It was obviously a very successful model of car as I have seen older on the roads, I also saw an 1959 model I think.

lol they sound like the mechanics in Egypt. I have been in taxis that seemed like they were going to fall apart, let alone get us anywhere! Somehow they always manage to amaze me though.
Assalaamu alaikum sis!
Some of the cars you see really are amazing. They look like they are held together by rust, parts missing, but filled to the brim of people and doing the job of getting from A to B so alhamdu Lillah! LOL
Aslamu alakum ukti habibati
