Mazda Bongo / Nissan Vanette Review - Used Japanese Cars

Used Japanese Cars - A Review of the Mazda Bongo and the Nissan Vanette


Mazda Bongo
From personal experience,both in the marketing field and as a used Japanese car sales rep it seems as if the Mazda Bongo and the Nissan Vanette are in high demand especially from countries such as Zimbabwe,Zambia,Malawi and Botswana.With the rising demand of these types of used Japanese Cars,they have become increasingly hard to find on the market.A survey done on 12 Japanese Used Car Dealers has shown that only two garages have the Mazda Bongo mini-bus taxi and non of the 12 has any Nissan Vanette mini-bus taxi.However,there seems to be an overload of the Mazda Bongo trucks and a fair supply of the Nissan Vanette trucks.
Nissan Vanette

The Mazda Bongo has been sold in many different versions since it was first manufactured in 1966.It is also known as the Mazda E-series and Mazda Access.The third generation of the Bongo manufactured between 1983 and 1999 was also sold by Ford in Asia as the 'Spectron'.The same Bongo was also sold in Australia by Mazda as the E-series.As from 1994 onwards Nissan also started selling the bongo as the Nissan Vanette.

Mazda Bongo Friendee
As from 1995 [to 2005] the Mazda Bongo Friendee which is an eight seater MPV was launched and most of them are automatic and they also come in both two and four wheel Drive.As always Ford also started selling the same car in the Japanese home market as the Ford Freda.

Where Can I Buy A Used Bongo / Vanette In Durban South Africa?


Truth of the matter is you can find the Mazda Bongo or the Nissan Vanette in some selected garages in Durban South Africa,especially if you are looking for the trucks.However the mini-bus taxes or kombis are quite hard to find and this is the reason why most people are taking the route of buying on the internet.

What people need to know is that if there is a shortage of these types of vehicles in Durban,it is most likely that even if you were to buy online,its most likely that you wont receive anything and most people are loosing their money that way.Most used Japanese car dealers in Durban are placing their orders for the same type of cars yet they are also not receiving the vehicles.Always bear in mind that those guys in Japan prefer to sell to Car dealers [because they buy in bulk] rather than to individuals.So if they cannot meet the dealership  demand,what makes you think that they will meet your individual needs.

It is partly because of this reason that we exhort you to buy and pay for something you have seen.Avoid buying pictures on the internet because you will never know wether the car you want is available or not.

If you are looking for a Mazda Bongo or Nissan Vanette,be they trucks or mini-bus taxes you can find them in Durban South Africa.You can phone or send a text message to any of the following numbers  +27735476907 / +27837841046.

Zimbabweans,Malawians and Zambians Purchasing Used Japanese Cars In Durban...

Used Vehicles From Japan For Foreign Internationals In South Africa....


Are you planning on getting a used Japanese car for less?This is the root being used by many car buyers.As opposed to checking out new cars,they opt for second hand vehicles from Japan.This is mainly so because of both affordibility and the never ending need to save money.It is for this reason that people travel from as far as Zimbabwe,Malawi,Botswana,Zambia and other African countries to Durban South Africa.Most people also prefer to go to Durban simply because they know that they can get great deals as compared to buying from the boarder post or from car dealers in their home countries.Besides getting the best deals,they know that the latter car dealers will have put extra costs on top of the actual price of the car.For example they may intentionally double duty,transport as well as the actual price of the car.Technically,the consumer realises that by going to Durban to buy the car on their own they will not only save money but may end up buying even two cars with the same amount which would have bought them one car at home.

Generally speaking,some people have a phobia when it comes to Japanese used cars.Partly this is because of some unscrupulous car dealers who happen to reap consumers off.Some sale the same car to three different people whilst others do not live upto their clients' expectations.This has tainted the image of the industry.However,this is common [but its no excuse] in almost each and every country,type of niche as well as business community.All you need to do is to make sure that you do business with the people you trust.

Most Japanese used vehicles on the market place are in excellent condition.However,it is the duty of the new owner of the car to maintain and service the auto so as to keep it up and running on the road.It is a fact that the perfomance of any vehicle,be it Japanese second hand or a brand new one depends on the owners.If you play your role as the owner,your vehicle can be on the road for years to come without facing any major problem.

So where should you buy your second hand Japanese vehicle in Durban?There are absolutely as many options as is possible when it comes to Japanese used car dealers in Durban.Some are crooks and others will treat you like kings and queens because they value the fact that you could bring repeat business to them.With literally hundrends of car dealers in the city,this leaves many people confused as to who to do business with.The pressure from sales man,the need to save money and get the best possible deal in town could be a daunting task.

Other things you should possibly consider when buying your used car includes things like the need and future use of the car.Why do you need the car,do you need it as a symbol of status or simply to make your travelling from point A to B more easier.If its a family car,how big should it be.Moreso,most Zimbabweans and Zambians buying used Japanese cars should be fully aware of the terrain they will be driving in most of the time.If you plan to go to your rural home,is the car gona be suitable or you will have to borrow another one from friends or family members.These are just some of the issues you need to take into consideration when coming to Durban to buy your Japanese used car.
