CIF MSA and taxes will do. Selling prices for KDH201V at the auctions currently averaging JPY 1.3M, add sales tax 8%, Freight, auction fees and bidders profit and you are looking at about USD 14500 cif. But I have seen some dealers doing 11500 not sure which market they are buying from. NB auction grade 3.5 Thanks @matatuman. $14,500 is circa 1,334,000/=. Import duty, Excise duty, port charges should be around 800,000/= which when added gives 2,134,000/=. That's a high figure. This makes my KDH200 valuable since similar ones are no longer being imported! You will not sell the car if it is still parked at home. People in the business only buy cars that are on the road unless they are buying from a dealer. You should have gotten it compliant by now. It's actually on the road though not compliant due to some silly mistakes/acts by my driver and SACCO officials. My SACCO withheld some info from me and my driver was slow in "surrendering" papers/docs to the SACCO. Haiya!!  Yes, TLB bado. It was inspected and I believe under the current rules, the SACCO also has a duty in making it "compliant". Remember that if one van is not compliant it's like all are not! It's the SACCO's duty to present application for route licence to TLB. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

@Jerry: You are playing Russian roulette. The Sacco has no such obligation. It is your responsibility.
It is people like you who make it hard for the rest of us to operate. If you were operating with us I would personally make sure you are kicked out for operating a non compliant vehicle. No hard feelings it is just that the sooner you learn that this is an unforgiving business the better for you.

Hi jerry,
You mean the vehicle you brought in at the beginning of last year is yet to obtain a TLB? Jerry I honestly think you now need to start taking things in your own hands. The sacco is just a body. If they own a vehicle and it is grounded for a few days, the pain will never belong to an individual. Similarly if they drag their feet in getting you a TLB, trust me they dont feel the pain. There are so many KCBs that acquired their RSLs towards the end of the year. I also brought in a second unit that arrived on 10th nov and by dec 14th it was on the road. I think you need to now do sth by yourself. The overall responsibility for having the vehicle on the road sorely lies on you.

I'm however getting tied of the whole idea of running matatu biz. I don't have all that time of monitoring and pushing pple. I had applied for 600k in my SACCO which was approved (450k)on Sarturday but the cheque will be ready after a month. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

With that attitude, I would advice you to either sell the car before it turns you into a pauper or pray really hard every day. Shit happens sometimes.

The vehicle belongs to you, not the SACCO. about time you took matters into your own hands. Kama unahisi umechoka, uza tu roho safi and invest in an alternative type of business. Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
