Dino Melaye Buys 2 Customised Bulletproof Cars Worth N726m & A Vintage Corvette (Video)

Dino Melaye has once again proven to the world that he won’t have to think twice in splashing his money where his passion lies—automobiles.

We seem to have lost count of the number of his exotic cars which saw yet another increase when the former Kogi lawmaker added one vintage car and two bulletproof cars to the list.

One of the things that is so special about this purchase is that the 46-year-old carefully gave some thought about how two of the cars should look like and told the manufacturers to produce him exactly to his specifications.

Truly money talks! We are told one of his new ‘lovers’—the black G-Wagon—came with a customised bar, a stool, and an incredible television set, not for a paltry sum, but a whopping 1.2 million dollars (N432 million).

The other lover—The Land Cruiser—boasts of a customised mini bar, a frame, and screens for the sum of N294 million. A little maths put the two at N726,000,000..

To put things into perspective, if you were to buy a car of N2 million, Dino’s huge sum would land you nothing less than 300 solid vehicles with considerable amount of change remaining, which you could use to get a plot of land for a parking space.

Now, the former Senator did not only part with that whopping sum, but he also acquired another car–a vintage 1977 corvette. Sorry, we don’t know the price but it sure costs a fortune.
