Hello eveyone!
As a point of view, be very careful when buying a car anywhere in DR.
Most cars come from the US with high mileage, heavy repairs, etc....
back in 06 when i came back from the US visiting family all over, me and my dad decided to buy a decent car for me to go back to work, my pilot courses, etc....
I spent an entire month searching for a good car around Santiago, Moca and La Vega, and over 80% of the cars (i was looking for Honda or Toyota) had severe repairs done in the bodywork or engine, torn interiors, or heavy mileage that had been reduced illegally in DR.....
If you don't know much about cars, go with somebody that does....... it will be safer and a more satisfying buy....
I settled 2 years ago on a '01 accord with 143,000 original miles and perfect condition...... I researched ALL the cars that i reviewed on
CARFAX used car VIN number search, auto history check, vehicle history reports and promised never again to buy a used car anywhere without a search on carfax, highly recommended........
If you wanna know about the high mileage on my car...... you never get a car in optimum condition and low mileage in DR for a decent price. I wanted my car to not be tampered with the miles, but a lot of the cars around Moca and Santiago have their mileage tone down, so if they are in good condition, go for it. The mileage thing in DR is uncontrollable.....
I hope this helps, and good luck with your future buy...
regards
