Questions
Good to know.
How much deposit do I need?
With bank finance you can start from a deposit of 10 to 30% of the price and repay the balance over up to 60 months. Hire purchase needs at least 50%. Through the Maridady SACCO you save 50% of the car's value and the SACCO lends the rest over up to 24 months.
How long does a car from Japan take?
Over 80% of our direct imports arrive within six weeks of the order. You can also ask about cars already on the ship.
Are the cars inspected?
Yes. Every car is checked before it reaches you, including engine performance, brakes, suspension and ownership history.
Can I trade in my current car?
Yes. We value it, sell it at the best value, and you top up to drive out a car from our showroom.
Do you help with the NTSA logbook transfer?
Yes. We take you through the transfer on eCitizen, including the ID, KRA PIN, logbook and bank release letter each side needs.
I'm self-employed. Can I still get finance?
Yes. We arrange financing for salaried people, businesses and the self-employed through our network of financiers.
