Cars


Classic American-made cars account for about half the traffic in Cuba, at least in the area of Varadero and Havana.  Most of them are taxis.  I saw a few classic VW bugs, but didn't manage to snap a pic.

The rest are old Ladas and small Chinese, Japanese and Korean imports, horse & buggies, Coco-cabs (little round cabs that seat 2 passengers + driver), and modern Chinese buses.  Most people don't have cars and get around by foot, bicycle, bus, train, or hitch-hiking.

Coco-cabs

Horse-drawn carriage (for tourists). 5 CUC per person.
I really don't know anything about old cars, except that they are lovely, so below is eye candy for car enthusiasts.
