Hi guys.

Does anyone know whether Nihonsha Co,which is listed at tradecarview is a genuine exporter?

Guys who have been importing from tradecarview have their contacts in the company who confirm to them the availability of a car and the genuineness of the seller. Else u could be TTing your hard earned cash to a chap next to you right now.

Hi,Trust are genuine . Their customer care is superior. Shipping within one week of payment. Car arrives after 30 days. Have dealt with them for a year now.

Infact the buggers who are likely to scr*w you are some local dealers and some of their cousins in the clearing.

Do not use consolidation chaps who fall under an umbrella website. Once i made an enquiry at [edit]and the fellow who returned the call used a +255 prefix tel.

Use the direct exporter. The trouble with [edit] is fiddling with mileage this is even reflected in the JEVIC !!! but the chaps are the best in pricing and as for customer care,well,well...

and while at it do NOT cut corners with KRA,if you know what i mean.
>>incase you get stuck hollla!!

@ Kwanini
Thanks very much for this info. At least Trust Co. have a clean bill of health,I now remain with checking these other dudes called Central Jidousya Shouji Co.,Ltd. ,they have a good car I would like to buy but am not sure of their authenticity,they fall under Trade CarView umbrella. Anyone with info on them? kindly assist guys!!

Very good side bussiness.

But you need to know what you are doing and know what cars are selling. Apart from that = very good returns

@Dexco

I would like top venture into this as a side business. In December I imported a car for personal,but got a buyer.. Now,I want to import a Toyota Runx. How much is the duty - for a 2002,1.5cc. And how much is the market price,Is there demand for this car? PLs help.

Well a 1.5 2002 runx will have a duty of about 230K then u add registration,Shipping line,IDF,clearing agent ++++ to approx 275K.

But make sure the month of registration falls from Jan to Current month eg right now you can only import upto 2002 April for that duty.

@ moran,Papera is also a very good company hand have been in the biashara longer than IBC. But both give quite good quality.

@Dexco: if it was registered after April 02,then i pay higher duties i.e. depreciation is 60% instead of 70%. Is my understanding correct?
