- How to buy a car in Costa Rica (it's not what you think!)
Many of the cars in the market here are exported from the United States after 10-15 years of driving. After they are imported to Costa Rica, it's anybody's guess what happens to the car, because nobody uses Carfax! Buying a car in Costa Rica is a total crapshoot.

@@IAMDBCYeah, we all miss his content. It’s a shame he doesn’t make more. That said, if he’s enjoying life and having a blast then who am I to complain.
He is just a china Troll paid to talk crap.
Happy you’re back! Missed your videos. Can’t wait to see more $20 day travelling!

Are you planning on any more posts soon, loving the channel👍😁
In Japan, they would change out the factory cluster for a dummy cluster and drive the car. When time comes for shaken inspection, they would put back the original cluster and that would be the mileage recorded. Ofc, odometer rollbacks are also common there.
nice new whip brother! just bought a beat up CRV myself 👊
Thanks man, I mulled over one or two CRVs when I was car hunting
I'm glad you found a good car.
I forgot about you again, bro. Thanks for reminding me you're still around. ;-)
Ive lived in Costa Rica but also from the US. What ive learned is that they dont even look at the odometers. They look more at the overall look and how it rides
Great tips, thank you! How do you actually pay for the car/transfer money to purchase it when your $ is not in a Costa Rican bank?
Great buy 👍
Thanks man
Good job man follow you long time ago since China
Thank you
I remember watching your 20$ China travel videos. I’m going to China at the end of the year! Are you planning on going back to China anytime?
As a tourist, I want to drive a 2000's Toyota Sienna to Costa Rica to keep there when applying for temporary residency. I just don't have any idea of what the tarriff tax will be. If it can be done, at least I will have a reliable vehicle that should have a high resale value.
I think the taxe is about 50% of the car’s value…
More Vids please
Hey man, would you consider finding someone to help you get this information out there in Spanish for everyone in CR? I also didn't know about this, and we are obviously getting ripped off left and right.
Yeah maybe I can ask my gf to film something similar
brooooooooooooooooooooooooo your audio sux in this video. Good to see you again though thanks for the upload.
You're right. No microphone. Got one now so it'll be better next time
Do you ever plan to ever go back to china to visit or live again in the future?
RAV4’s are the best 😃
Thank you! I want to buy a car in mexico, a Suzuki Jimny
How much was the car ?
I miss videos of you and parvati together
She is with me here!
Where did this guy go?? I just discovered this channel and he's been mia for 5 months?
Hey Andrew thanks for your comment. I’m basically retired from TH-cam now. But I hope you enjoy my library of content
@@Monkeyabroad Thank you for the reply! Enjoy your retirement. Pura Vida!
@@Monkeyabroad r u bi or str8
Any new vlogs coming ?
Buy a new one if you don't want to deal with odometer issues, its the only way..... also everyone knows that all sellers change the mileage on the cars, but we don't pay much attention to it, as every car that comes into the country gets set up that way before getting license plates and annual revisions. Its a huge known SCAM haha . All people can do as this point is take the cars to a mechanic and get it checked before buying it... or buy a new one ... if the budget is low many people ratter buy a Chinese brand car with a warranty than an used one that may become a headache due to high mileage
Dude hopefully living the life and making the max use out of his chad powers 😂
Not sure why the views have disappeared - but my advice would be to get back to east and South Asia asap
nah i am happier living in central america more, but thanks
@@Monkeyabroad good luck man 👍🏻
What?? You really like Central America more than Asia? Wow, that’s not something you hear everyday.
How much did you buy it for?
About half the typical market value for this make, model, and year
How are you doing dude? Are tou alright?
I'm good bro
Going to make new vids?
Kevin just dropped off the face of the earth.

Very sketchy buying a car there. 😢

hi subscriber
Whats your job?
Depends who's asking
@@Monkeyabroad joe

George, you’ve taken it too far this time
You still off the ganja?
Yup. Nearly 300 days. Don't miss it a bit
@@Monkeyabroad what about ayahuasca? some nice retreats you got there
@@Monkeyabroad I have now been off it for 3 months after 17 years of daily use. I did have a few days where I caved and smoked, but I didn't feel good at all, rather an anxious mess. Life is a lot better without it

That long hair is Soooo Hot!!! :)
