Cuban car sale rise after law change

Help

Car sales in Cuba have risen sharply since restrictions on buying and selling vehicles were lifted a couple of months ago.

Until recently Cubans could only trade in cars built before the 1959 revolution. But ordinary Cubans can now buy post-1959 cars from foreigners and those whose jobs allowed them to import Soviet-made cars.
