I have noted TOMISHO company is popular in www.tradecarview.com/ . Anyone who has dealt with them? The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

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.

Relax. It will reach you with 250k Kms, the delay is as they fix all that and put all the other stuff like tires african coloner wrote:Talking of honesty. Tokyo whats happening with papera.

@Prime. Probably the 280KM was covered as they moved van to port on road!!! The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

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.

I'm with IBC and so far I sense no foul play. You have to pay more for a good service though! The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

I second IBC...Though pricey,their cars are in good condition-mostly auction grade 4's. Have recently bought a unit from them,very reliable so long as you nominate a good freight terminal in Mombasa(I used Boss Freight Terminal). The car arrived just as i saw it online with everything intact

Be very very careful while sending your hard earned Money . We have quite a good number of fraudulent people mostly from Pakistan. Recovering money is almost impossible as It’s Interpol police Jurisdiction. Kenya as one of the biggest used car importers is a prime target. Considering too how peculiar Kenyans are. Anyway, now is the best time to buy your dream guzzler. Prices historically low. work to prosper

Some sellers price seemingly good units at crazy low prices. Once your hooked they say the unit failed inspection and are seeking to replace it. This takes ages and it Dawn's on the buyer they are in shit. The circus starts when demand for refund arises and soon emails and calls are ignored. The Embassy in Tokyo does try in resolving these but trade disputes aren't their main forte.
Advise: source directly from auction for low priced units or reliable dealers.
