If you don’t have millions to buy big cars in Kenya, you can go for a small car that is cost effective but serves the same purpose as a big car.
If you don’t have more than Sh 500,000 to purchase cars like Toyota VX, Porsche, Range Rover, you can use the little money you have to purchase small but elegant cars from local bazaar or import used cars from Japan.
If you are residing in Nairobi for instance, a small car that costs Sh 350,000 can consume fuel of as little as Sh 150 per day. Meaning that in a week you can only spend Sh 600 on fuel. This is much cheaper compared to public transport where most stages nowadays charge not less than Sh 50
Ensure that you purchase a car that does not have more than 1500 cc.You will be sure this car won’t cost much to maintain.
If you want such car, please consider buying one of the following models.
- Honda Partner
