After a lot of DR1 help plus a lot of time on other forums, we have decided to try to buy a 2009 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. Thanks for all of the advice. There is literally only one for sale on supercarros and autoimportadores. Either they don't import them often or everyone keeps them because they are such a great car. Not sure which but I assume from everything I have heard, it is because of the build quality.
Seriously odd question: We are going to try to go to Santo Domingo on Friday to pick up our car that has been fixed and to try to look at this 2009 land cruiser prado with the hopes to buy. We currently do not have a car, we are not mechanics or have any great knowledge on cars, or have any great experience at "haggling" prices with car dealers here. As our options are limited and we would like to do it right the first time, Would anybody with good car knowledge and Dominican dealer experience be willing to pick us up in Jarabacoa, take us to pick up our car in Santo Domingo and go to look at this car? We would obviously pay you. We know it is an odd request but everyone we know is busy and can't do it until next week and we haven't had a car for about a week. My wife and I would be going so hopefully that would make it less weird. We expect it to take almost all day and hope that someone would be willing to help us out.
Note: this was posted at the end of another thread but we figured this was a better place for it.
