14 Things You’ll Find In Every Lebanese Car

From the iconic cedar air fresheners to the never-ending accumulation of empty water bottles in the backseat, Lebanese cars have a lot of bullshit going on in there. But not every car is born the same, and every Lebanese driver transmits their own character into their lucky car. So, put your seatbelt on and tell us if you’ve seen these 14 things in a Lebanese car. 1. A broken AC I swear I’ll fix it next week, wallah next week, yalla next week, next week mekheda, next week — gunshot. 2. The cedar-shaped air freshener that hasn’t freshened air in years Mom, please throw it out. 3. The oil change booklet that’s always lost I guess we’ll just vibe it. 4. Evidence of crimes You were at Barbar at 2 AM again weren’t you? 5. Empty water bottles galore Is this a form of recycling? 6. A trinket buried deep in the cup holder void A 250 LL coin? I haven’t seen you in so long. 7. Tissues all the time, except when you need them. Sneeze time! 8. A mysterious stain We don’t talk about it. 9. So many “sell me your car” cards At least put a price down on the card so I know my options… 10. An abandoned cigarette pack But never any lighters. 11. CDs no one knows anything about I inherited them from my great grandfather’s uncle, only 3 actually work. 12. A bag in the trunk One day it’ll come in handy… 13. A secret snack stash You have to press 4 buttons to get to it, and only the driver knows where it is. 14. A spare wheel? No, we don’t need that. 1
