It baffles me the type of profound inconsiderate attitude with which some ppl speak. Hw many Average nigerians can afford a brand new car? Most ppl buy used cars whose costs are normally less dan a mill. Finally, a good wine needs no bush if the cars are of good quality ppl will patronise, bone dt non-patronage of locally made goods mentality. Gone ar dose days ppl prefered foriegn goods to local ones it's now all abt quality and cost. Ppl don wise up o

Hey guys any word on the 70% policy yet? I'm getting some mixed messages from clearing agents.

wolebanks:
what messages are you getting?

txswat:
some are saying they've started charging the 70% rate some say they haven't.

femmy2010:


014 Cars and newer now attracts the 70% duty cum levy.

Fhemmmy:


But I heard it is 2012 and newer

femmy2010:


2012 not included
Physical examination would be done on 2013 by Customs to know if it would attract 35 or 70% but 2014 and newer definitely attracts the 70%.

Fhemmmy:


Thanks for the information

Oh I jst wish d govt can jst leave it at this and nt affect d 2012 and older. So dat it will simply mean dat if u want to buy a brand new car u'll have to buy a Nigerian assembled. I would rather buy a 5 million naira worth Tokunbo 2011 Venza than to buy a Nigerian assembled 2014 Hyundai SantaFe.

femmy2010:


This would have made sense my bruva.
Lets wait and see what 2015 has in stock for Nigeria and Nigerians

Fhemmmy:


Nigerians would have the opportunity to voice their mind during the election . . . . .

femmy2010:


I hope Nigerians wont get carried away by the "I had no shoes" rhetoric this time around.
Rooting for a GMB prez come 2015 though.

Fhemmmy:


I would rather see Nigerians vote with their head and dont allow religion and tribe play a part..... But i am sure i am asking for too much

femmy2010:


The reality on ground now is that Nigerian electorates are getting wiser and gradually not allowing tribal and religious sentiments be the deciding factor regards who they cast their precious vote for.
I use to be in that "Blinded" school of thought before but have ceased to be cowed by those cheap propaganda that a particular candidate is "Boko Haram" or " Lucifer".
The populace need to make their vote count by voting a candidate that has the major aspiration of serving them.

Fhemmmy:


Great, make we no derail the thread . . . . Let me stick to selling cars, Lol
