1) Do not come to This City Blindly without any references. Everybody is a broker once you tell them you’ve come for a car. Your interests are not catered for in such situations. Utashikanishwa na any car at first sight. <\/span><\/p>\n

2) Never Carry Cash . All Transactions are to be done through the bank transfer <\/span><\/p>\n

3) The Best Showrooms are Pakistani owned. These Men are not greedy ! Their profit margins are reasonable compared to other showrooms. <\/span><\/p>\n

4) Be on the look out for Vehicles that have been in use by the showroom and put up for sale as new. Verify the mileage at the time of inspection with the current mileage in the Odometer. key in the chassis number in the link below . check the reading on the dash board & the oke at the time of inspection on the website <\/span>https:\/\/<\/span>qisjp.co.uk\/verify-certificate.php<\/span>\u2026<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

4) Act Interested But not Desperate Never show too much interest in a car ! As much as you may have fallen in love with it (Ladies) . This only convinces the showroom to place a higher price tag on the vehicle. Always act like you aren’t moved an inch by a vehicle’s looks <\/span><\/p>\n

5) Avoid Brokers who walk & stand in groups outside showrooms. Too many Interests combine for a single deal. 90% of the time your interests will not be at heart. <\/span><\/p>\n

6) Do not Sign sale agreements or Pay without having a comprehensive look at the vehicle. Demand a road test. listen to the suspension & strange sounds from the gear box & engine . Switch off the radio when doing a road test. Enables you to hear these sounds. <\/span><\/p>\n

7) Ask for auction sheets to check on the grading of the vehicle you are about to buy <\/span><\/p>\n

8) Service your Vehicle before Driving back to Upcountry . Change oil filters, air filters, spark plugs , worn out wipers etc. Do your identity and riveting of car parts before leaving Mombasa. Cars from showroom are a hotcake for theft. Fit Tracking devices too <\/span><\/p>\n

9) Hybrid cars with a mileage above 150,000 are a redflag <\/span> avoid at all cost ! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

10) Leave early in the morning to avoid Night Driving . <\/span><\/p>\n

11) In case you make a stop over at mtito andei , be on the look out for car thieves. Most cars disappear at this point. midway into their journey to Nairobi <\/span><\/p>\n

12) Shop for cars in Yards first before settling for showrooms. You may not know it but some dealers buy from open yards here before selling the same cars in Showrooms. The Best yards to buy from Are canon motors & Aisha Motors at railways. A fielder going for 2,000,000 at a showroom will go for 1,800,000 at a yard. Yards ship cars in huge numbers unlike showrooms who select cars. Showrooms too are burdened by rent so that too must be transferred to the buyer.<\/span><\/p>\n
