business isn't straight line graph. Last I checked, Berger guys don't make cars, where do they get their cars from, literally from auction sites like this. If the price is low its a great deal. It would always be cheaper to import yourself if you know what you doing that buying from Berger.

Key thing is to know what you are doing and do your research

Lets run a simple maths, fill in the blanks

Price of the Car in USD.…

Shipping fee + possible agency fee….

Clearing cost... 2m - 2.5m

Repair cost... 700 -1m

Then whats the average price of cars in Nigeria of similar year. But keep in mind lots of used foreign cars in Nigeria are accented and have rolled back mileage. In your case you know what you fixing and the exact mileage of the car.

Factor these and it would be very easy to make a decision to either import or just get it in Nigeria

Your point is valid
The car mileage is just 47k mile so it's still as new.
But those in dealers hand, they must have touched the mileage and even change gear box or engine.

So importing is still cheaper and better
