Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
This and mu-x by isuzu are the kind of suv i want. But after taking into acccount taxes and AP fees, it becomes too expensive to be fully imported from our asean neighbour. Asean cars should be treated as local as we signed asean free trade agreement but did not honour it. Only by making asean one huge market can we attract even more investors to the region.
Even Fortuner, being CKD, is almost 200k start.
Love this Pajero Sport (Dakar). More powerful than Fortuner. Used to rent it here in Indonesia for Business Trips around the province. Mostly sold vehicle in its class in Indonesia.
