Using Japan as an example, They are one of the vehicle producing countries of the world. When these vehicles are newly released they are bought by citizens of their country and within 2-3 years they are sold as newer models are created. These vehicles are then arranged in car lots to be shipped off to other countries such as the Caribbean.

When a vehicle reaches an age that is too derelict to operate , they are sent to junk yards. Vehicles that were also in accidents, written off or unclaimed, together with those in the junk yards are fixed to working condition and sent to countries such as Africa, Gambia, Nigeria etc.

Yes, i heard some of the old half working derelict cars are sent to poor countries as they cannot afford new ones. It makes sense.

Yepp that's true!! Some of those cars can be even up to 95% off the original retail price!!

It's a great idea to reuse cars, they will never cease to be useful, especially if you give them enough care, love, attention and hard work!
