The new 4×4 Mercedes Sprinter camper van just made its way into the US market, but we might be seeing the same car on our roads very soon- thanks to tycoon Sudhir Ruparelia.
The van is estimated at about $110,000 (about Shs363m), before taxes and freight costs, and a tax expert at URA told us that the car would pay taxes of not less than Shs400m; adding that freight costs would depend on the mode of transportation. Sudhir is already ell-known for having a taste for classy things, and with the promise to his only son, who is also directly responsible for his father’s business empire, we can safely state that Rajiv will be ditching his VX for the new monster ride.
Sudhir yesterday posted a YouTube link with the 2016 Mercedes sprinter van and made it very clear to his son; “Rajiv, this is your next car!”
