This is a timely subject for me because I had my car, 309 Peugeot inspected here in Mahajanga on Friday Nov 10th. My car is 21 years old and as usual the inspectors can find something wrong with the car. I always send my driver to take my car in for inspection and I gave him 230.000 fmg. As usual they found the high beams did not work and the brakes were weak. My driver said that the other car is in the repair shop so please pass this one.
The inspector said how much do you have in you pocket and my driver showed all 230,000fmg. That was the cost to have my car stamped for inspection for another year. 130,000fmg for the cost of the inspection, same as last year, and 100,000 fmg to the inspector.
I think it is best to have my driver take the car in for if I did I would be charged a higher price. Having a driver also saves me in other areas as in police stops, my driver has no money in his pocket. Also daily washing and weekly maintenance tuneups and dealing with other pick up and drop off services.
