The latest ‘luxury’ car purchased by the controversial Kogi Senator, Dino Melaye is said to be a cheap MG-TD replica car as an expensive Rolls Royce car purportedly worth N180 million. SaharaReporters confirmed that Mr. Melaye is pandering his cheap replica as a Rolls Royce after consulting several experts with deep knowledge of both Rolls Royce and MG-TD cars.
It was learnt that an associate of Mr. Melaye has been circulating a press release claiming that he “bought a classic Rolls Royce estimated at $400,000 (N180 million).” The same statement continued saying, “that the Rolls Royce is a rare collectible item that is not only scarce but very expensive.”
The press statement, now known to be totally misleading, erroneously claimed that “the Rolls Royce which is a 1923 model is 93 years old, and is used by only a few persons in a special grade.”
Three antique car experts located in the United States confirmed to Sahara Reporters that the car in the photos circulated by Mr. Melaye’s associate is not a Rolls Royce. All three experts said that the car in the photographs is a British-made MG-TD, two of whom said it was a replica with parts from a Volkswagen Beetle.
