Fatjon Braha and behind him the Mercedes-Benz car and the Albanian flag |
Fatjon Braha is passionate about retro cars. He has even won the retro car competition in Denmark, where he has triumphed among over 2 thousand participants.
In a Skype connection to Albanian media, the Albanian from Kukësi told how he managed to buy the Benz 240, a car so rare for the times in which we live.
Fatjon even revealed that it took him three months to convince the owner to buy the car, who had left the car in the dust and did not appreciate it.
"This car has remained motionless for 38 years. It is incredible in fact that this type of car is not found in this condition. I found it near Denmark, it was dusty and a friend of mine told me that a friend of his has some old cars. I saw this and asked him about the price, he said he did not sell it. I do not go without buying it I told him, especially when I saw it from the inside. So I went every Monday for three months until I got it. I offered Albanian brandy.
The value of this car can cost over 150 thousand euros and up.
