The average life cycle of today’s cars comparing to old cars is just laughable! If your brand new car, which cost you an arm and leg, bumps into one of these so-called classic cars, I guess we all know which car will spend the weekend at the mechanic, while the other will keep rolling along.

We can’t fight it; old is gold no matter how advanced new cars become.

Below are 15 cars that earned the saying “Ya gabal mayhedak ri7”. We bet you’ve seen one of these still cruising the highway recently:

 1. Fiat 128
