Living in a four bedroom house in the newly built Komarock Sector one estate. Having a family car (KPP 002) and my mother having a chips cafe was the best description of how good our life was in the 90s.
Life back then was very nice and cheap. My Dad had just landed a job as a chief account after 12 years studying CPA from Kabianga to Kaimosi and finally Strathmore. ( Man CPA then was hard: this infact made me hate account s. His salary shot from 12k to 100k in one month. Kayole existed but there were very few house and crime was unheard of. In fact it was controlled development. Thamaka!!!
My Dad All-over sudden developed a habit of buying old vehicles and parking them in front of our home. We had a total of four stationary vehicles in the compound and a resident mechanic who was nearly given a room at our home.
After like 10 years the NGO my dad used to work was swindled by a group of young Bcom champs with CPA 2. It had to close down rendering my Dad jobless. Life changed All-over sudden forcing us to relocate to Reserve. A reserve that did not have a house thus we lived with relatives untill I matured and started hustling.
Since my Dad was an accountant, he started finding jobs as an auditor before he registered his company with ICPAK and jobs stared flowing again. Sasa juzi mzae amenicall akanitumia hii picha

Ati I look for some spares in Nairobi. There is a fundi from Kisumu living in my newly built house probably even fucking kwa bed yangu waiting to repair it. The list that came with it was two pages.

Peugeots had torque. Us we had a 305… analogue steering, fuses were loose and lights used to zimika randomly…but I learnt to drive in that car…good times.
we once had a red 405. that car’s steering wheel ilikuwa kama kubeba mitungi ya maji.

I always thought the phrase Limited Slip Differential meant this thing had some supernatural powers “haiezi kwama kwa matope”
