[quote=Impunity][quote=CLK][quote=innovator][quote=Siringi]At the beginning of this thread there were guys beating debe for the hybrids. What is the experience with hybrids two years down the line in light of the article below?

Importing a hybrid car Ship in the mechanic as+well!

share experiences hata kama ni ya neighbour, 'friend' or 'a guy i know'

@siringi, My advice on hybrids, only listen to reviews from those people who use/own hybrids. I use it and the analysis by Baraza to me is mis-information. With some few tips about use, the car is GOOD. [/quote]
Only listen to someone who has owned a similar car, otherwise most Kenyans pass along lots of propaganda including huyo Baraza, he has not owned all the cars he reviews so his comments can be warped depending on where he read it from...[/quote]

I will talk about Prius hybrid, the car is good, a friend of mine owns one.
The only problem will come when that Battery power pack needs replacement...his batt has been losing power/storage quite faster and the cheapest quote he has been told for a second hand power pack is a cool Vitz-price; Kes. 400K!
And the batt is imnported from Dubai.

However doing 24km/l is not far fetched!

Someone may not need to exactly fit this script, but this is an example to a bigger picture. Take an example of taking a 9M mortgage where you pay 110K pm for 15 yrs(11.75 interest p.a) to own a 3BR in Kitengela. Some1 else will chose to buy a plot in Kitale and put up 6 rental units and make 60K pm, and chose to pay 25K rent p.m in Nai. I agree the people may not be too many, but the point is parking a serious car in a rented house is not always a stupid act.[/quote]

Totally Agree with you.I will NEVER EVER buy or build a house in Nairobi for staying...Unless its for commercial purposes.Building a residential house in nairobi is for the wealthy.[/quote]

This post is misplaced! It shouldn't be here

I am yet to see/ hear of an accident caused by Miraa drivers or presidential escort drivers, they thrive in two different worlds..we should organize a race and see whos smarter

My Miraa buddies win pants down...

Presidential Escort clear the road and brake all rules..
Miraa drivers only break 'speed barriers' and 'overtake from the right side' rules

Kumbe the Rush is good ole Daihatsu link : Daihatsu Terios : Toyota Rush ?

used to think these things were made for Kengen Kenya power meter readers na agricultural extension officers.

Am seeing enough of these in town anybody with experience? Methinks they way they are thin -proximity ya passengers reminds me of ile kitanda ya 3x6. My fundi told me eti large beds kills romance:-( on 3x6 gata kama mumekasirikiana at one point you have to turn and some parts of the anatomy will touch and chochote chaweza tokea unlike a 6x6 were a Berlin wall can be erected
