Well, the description of the old car above very much depicts one celebrity’s vehicle well enough, Banky W. The musician and singer has a particular Range RoverRange Rover
that has a lot of history written into its every part.
Only recently, the car was a subject picked on by two trolls who abused Banky W and his wife for still still riding the car despite the fact that it was old. The ladies felt that it was not befitting enough for a celebrity to keep an old, cherished memory in form of a car.
As it appears, Banky W has announced that he is finally ready to dispose of this old car which contains a lot of memories, histories, and bits and pieces of his personality.

“This Range Rover has been so good to my Madam and I, but this Saturday Nov 24th we are auctioning it to raise money for The School for the Blind, and for @pinkoaktrust… If you’re looking for a used Car, buy this piece of Nigerian Pop Culture history instead. It has been in more videos and movies than any other option out there lol. It was also the subject of a stalker video some months ago.
Point being, it’s famous, and these charities need our help. So come through on Saturday and bid on this and many more cars…”
