Kids Petrol-Powered Ride-on cars from China

Business
1

Fellow Business minds,
During a recent visit to shaina, I came across petrol-powered toys with an engine of 150cc. I found these to be ideal for kids 5-14 yrs, and wished my parents could have bought me such. I plan to buy my children one, and if possible, start importing them for business. The CIF Mombasa is approx 20K, so with all duties, it would be like 35K. My questions:
[ol]
[li]Are there any restrictions regarding importing such to kenya? If not, what taxes/duties apply?[/li][li]Would you buy such for your kid for 50K?[/li][/ol]

Nice views.
So you would buy a quad-bike for 50K @nairobilay ?
@ol monk, would you buy your kid a ball, ama utamnunulia polythene na uzi atengeneze yake?

hehe hizo condoms we used to take them out of the wrapings and roll them to their maximum length and get shocked at the kind of arsenal older guyz were carrying between their legs

And most likely he will wreck the toy within a month

Brand new, i would. Considering that those battery powered cars you see at nakumatt go for around 30k, i think 50k for a quadbike is fair.

Well, from my assessment of the toy, it is not easy to wreck it, unless the kid is very determined. For one, the maximum speed is like 20kph, and second, the bumper is rubber, which bounces once you hit a hard surface. Unless the kid spoils the radio/mp3 player inside the drivers cabin.

I wouldn’t put my kid alone in anything going 20kph to be honest. But what do I know.
