A video of late Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo's jaw-dropping fleet of luxury cars is making rounds on social media, offering a rare glimpse into his extravagant lifestyle. The footage, filmed on 4 October 2026 at his residential property during funeral proceedings, has sparked a wave of reactions online.

Presenter Latwell Nyangu of ZTN Prime, with Star FM branding also visible throughout the clip, guided viewers through the collection in a walking-tour style, moving between an outdoor driveway and multiple covered carports at the residence.

Wicknell Chivayo's Signature Fleet

The vehicles on display included a Mercedes-Benz Maybach, a Brabus, a Range Rover, a Lexus and a Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Each car bore a personalised "777" number plate, which Nyangu described as Chivayo's signature. Chivayo had reportedly referred to himself as "Se" or "Seweknew," with both names visible on some of the vehicles alongside the initials "WMC."

A separate carport dedicated to his wife featured a customised Bentley and a Lamborghini, which Nyangu noted were gifts from Chivayo to her. The presenter remarked that the businessman was not one to do things cheaply, whether for himself or for others.

Mzansi and Zim React to the Car Tour

Watch Latwell Nyangu's tour of Wicknell Chivayo's car collection at his residence:

Viewers were quick to weigh in, with many taking aim at the presenter's knowledge of the cars he was showcasing.

Gideonson Paavo wrote: "The least you could do as a 'presenter' is do a lil research about the cars you are presenting."

Strive-Prince Braddock agreed: "Bro knows nothing about cars. 'As you can see the signature.' 'These are the type of Cars.'"

Russo Da Navigator Chaparira added: "Why is he saying Mexedes?"

Mthulisi observed: "Now a man's home has turned to a museum."

Mazvita Earnmore Diana Mutsago attempted to downplay the collection: "In Dubai those car's are actually used as taxis."

Bokuthula Ncube was having none of it: "You don't even own a bicycle. These are most expensive SUV cars in the world. Which Dubai are you talking about? Don't lie to people."

Conrad Masendeke echoed that sentiment: "Mazvita Earnmore Diana Mutsago you want people to think that you were in Dubai??? But we are in Zim not in your Dubai so pliz sit down."

Swedias Chirenda pointed out an interesting absence: "No company has announced to date that their CEO is gone to heaven."

Knowledge H Manyadza had a different concern altogether: "Something fishy about the Signature. 'Mark of the beast.'"
