Between January 2003 and September 2004, President Mwai Kibaki's government spent at least Kshs 878 million in the purchase of luxury cars that were largely for the personal use of senior government officials such as ministers, assistant ministers and permanent secretaries.

The cars include:

Fifty seven Mercedes Benz (thirty eight E200K, Sixteen E240, one ML270, two C200K and one S350L ) all worth at least Kshs 401 million		Nine Nissan Patrols worth at least Ksh.38.8 million
	Forty two Land Cruisers ( A motley of Prados, GXs and VXs ) worth at least sh.253.6 million
Seventeen Mitsubishi Pajero’s worth at least Kshs. 86.2 million		Three Range Rovers, two Discoveries and a Freelander all worth at least Kshs 55.4 million
	Thirteen Nissan Terranos worth at least Kshs. 40.7 million

The shocking finding is that the amount spent on the luxury cars is just about the same amount that was allocated under the Constituency Development Fund in thirty one of the Country's poorest constituencies.
