Buying a Car in Quito Ecuador as an Expat
In this video I explain how to buy a car as an expat in Ecuador, what to expect, what to watch out for, and what sort of expectations you should have. Before anyone comments asking why I don't just import a car, be aware it's almost impossible to import a car to Ecuador and even if you can, by the time you pay duties and shipping it's not worth it. Also, my comment about SOAT being the required insurance appears to be wrong. It used to be required but I'm told that has recently changed.
The biggest shock when buying a car in Ecuador is the price. Cars are far more expensive here, but they hold their value well and they are less expensive to repair. The other important things to keep in mind are the matricula (annual registration) and pica placa (traffic reduction scheme for Quito). Also, don't expect the cars you look at to be well maintained or even roadworthy.
