    Do you want to import your own car? In this video, I will share with you the step by step by step process that I personally used , that helped me save over KES 300,000
    Any one who has ever thought of having their own car, has always had this problem. You have a car that you wish to buy, but the budget just is not enough. That is why I advocate for people to import their own car from Japan.

      Because it actually is. Knowledge is power. I tried with my own car, got it for 600, when market value is about 900. Then did the same for my folks and saved them close to 400K as well. The only place u spend is now with the clearing company, coz u pay them to do the car registration for u and clearance.
