Do we go ahead and pay for this car???given the time ..will it be late???


If you can get a genuine honest exporter, its possible to get it late November or early Dec latest. there is a Vessel departing Nov 4. But under the current situation, you should be wary of 2006 models. But if you need the cheapest car, buy Nov 15 , Jevic and booking immediately and ship Nov22/23 vessel.



Talking of honesty. Tokyo whats happening with papera. I bought a hiace slightly over a month ago. The mileage was stated as 250,000 km. They have been giving me so many excuses on the delayed shipment. Today when I checked whether it has undergone jevic inspection details from www.jevic.com, I see that the inspection was done on 16th October and the jevic mileage is stated as 278,000 km. Meaning that from the time I bought it, the car has clocked more than 28,000 km while still under papera. Which means that The vehicle cannot be under the same condition I bought it under, be it tyres and general condition. What would guys say on this kind of dishonesty.

Ideally we ought to limit ourselves to 100,000 miles but can we afford?

Try getting a low mileage Hiace and report back. Thats a reasonable mileage for a grade 3.5 Hiace. Generally, commercial vehicles tend to have a higher mileage. Worse is large trucks. Most Zinaanzia 500k km. In my opinion, A grade 4 car that has done 200k km is much better than a grade 3 car that has done 100k km. In other words, I look at more than the kms.
Let me add that majority of the cars advertised around as having sub 100k km have had their odometer re-wound. Check behind their jevic sticker and the mileage will have been erased or covered with some insurance sticker. But the best is to just go to www.jevic.com and up there, next to the log in is a section for checking the e-cert. Just key in your chassis number and you will get a copy of the jevic certificate at the time of inspection, before the vehicle left japan. You will be surprised.

Latest on the saga. I lodged a complaint to papera. They mailed me today indicating that they would ship the car on 4th dec. 2 months since \i bought it. However, I have just noticed that they have put a totally different car on my account. Totally different chassis numbers, month of manufacture. same photos though. Mileage is now 169,000 km. They are yet to communicate on whats happening though. I really pray I will get a decent car. At the rate things are moving I cannot tell!! All other features are the same.
