Twincustom Nigeria Limited, has unveiled 3 cars CX Series range of customised bespoke car models in Lagos.
The cars, originally Volvo, were remade by hand to suit the high automotive tastes of the targeted users by the indigenous customiser and auto shop, at an event held at the Silverbird Galleria, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The three models, namely CX 5, CX 6 and CX 7, fondly known by their collective alias Africa’s Rolls-Royce, were customised and richly equipped with an impressive range of modern luxury convenience features by the Ibadan-based Twincustom.
Managing Director/CEO of Twincustom Nigeria Limited, Twinkle James Oruwariye, said the CX series took his company years of hardwork to finish, stressing that most of the top quality materials were sourced locally.
The event which was witnessed by some high profile car enthusiasts, including a real estate investor, Dennis Nwokedi; Dr. Bayo Kuku of EKO Hospital; and Honorary Australian Council, Alan Davies, draw attention to the vast local input in the cars and the ingenuity of Oruwariye and the Twincustom technical team.
The unveiling process was kicked off when the representative of the Lagos State Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mrs. Temitope Akintunde, lifted the cover off the theme of the event which was: Boosting Local Content in the Nigerian Automobile Industry.
Oruwariye whose Twincustom has been in the business of making head-turning models out of models out of luxury cars since 1986, disclosed that unlike many years ago when his company accepted customisation jobs from customers who came with cars of various brands and models, the focus now is on customising original Volvo XC90 models (between 2004-2013) which Twincustom imports directly from the USA.
One of the highpoints of the event was the unveiling of the Automated Ventilation Control System (AVCS), which the company says, is currently undergoing the process of International Patent.
