If you have never driven the VITZ or owned one..you will hate it,I personally hated the thought of it until the day I 'accidentally' bought one....
I drove a subaru impreza when fuel was about 72-74 range as a custom i fuel full tank but it would last me a 'week' that is monday to friday if i needed to run errands over the weekend that would be another kshs 1500 given that weekends you move alot more that weekdays....not to mention that during the week the journey would be home office office home.
Somethin happened last year...I sold the Sub,and because the car I anticipated to buy had a 'hitch' and i was desperate for a car...i ended up buying a...you said it ...VITZ from a friend.
Now here is the moral....
that time last year fuel was around 78 as a custom again full tank,this is in the range of 36 litres the car a manual consumes like 16.6 on average in this Nairobi traffic I do like 565KM's on the lower side with a full tank.
Whats more now fuel is about 106-108 thereabout full tank for me is about Kshs3500,3600 for the same two weeks,i get to drive around as i wish,mmmh i feel no pinch.
Its even cheaper logistically than a dude that uses a citi hopa...
Lakini I have taken a lot of tongue lashing from guys...but like a hard cookie,i have not cracked...i don't intend to leave this car..Besides i call it a WASP or DUDU if you like.
Granted i miss the thrill a sub offers,but again who really cares,rush from the airport to stay at nyayo stadium for 2 hrs in the traffic spend 500 while the guy in a wasp has barely sniffed any fuel.
On the other side,can anyone with A BMW 318 or 320i give a reveiw,especiall fuel and spares?
If you have to support yourself,you had bloody well better
find yourself some way that is going to be interesting.
