  1. That is dirt cheap. I doubt it could be done now at that price. The cheapest I ever got by was 20,000 pesos on a 2013 model yr motorcycle in 2021. And that was only the cost at the border not including, travel there and back, hotels, food, and registration/plates acquired in Jalisco. Due diligence is your friend.
  2. Yep, that usually works, "Con dinero baila el perro."
  3. The importation process at the border is the first step of the process, the second step will be the inspection and plates to be obtained in Guadalajara. If you use a local facilitator, I would suggest you obtain his fee in writing. Those fees can double or triple if he sends a runner to Guadalajara who is not registered as required at the inspection site. In my case I had to go to complete this step after the runner made several mistakes could not get it done. YMMV
  4. I have imported 2 vehicles and would never attempt to do it on my own. I would not hire a local facilitator to do it for me. I would never hire a local attorney to get my plates after the border importation process has been completed. Puro desmadre. Drive the car to Carmax in San Antonio, Tx and sell it or sell it on Craigslist San Antonio then fly back. Buy Mexican from a friend or on this webboard. Lots of options. Buena suerte.
  5. Same here but with fewer docs. Copies Passport page, Visa, CFE bill, Curp, and my RFC. No Constancia SituaciĆ³n Fiscal required or asked for. YMMV
  6. Chida foto. If I can kick start a Honda XR650R with a race cam and no decompressor I can kick start that Brit no problem. No soy puto. You got my number or pm me.
  7. To quote my own post, LOL, if you need some help to mod a quad (hey that rhymes), Estoy a sus ordenes cuando disponsible.ā€Ž This is not "virtue signaliing". This is what fellow motocyclists do. šŸ––
  8. FWIW I did see a Kawasaki quad for sale near the pemex on the libramiento a couple of days ago on the East side going north.
  9. "Ay Jalisco, no te rajes." (Don't give up.)
  10. I do not know when you were there. My neighbor was there 3 weeks ago and her bill for 7 nights was 800,000 MXN. It is not just Puerta Hierro del Sur either. All of the hospitals have jumped in fees a lot in the past few months.
  11. Mexico's version of "Death with Dignity" is managed by your local vet. just messin with you, I don't take life too seriously
  12. In my experience, properties in close proximity to Ajijic tend to hold value better, In your case, I would go with San Juan Cosala. On a side bar, one bit of good advice an agent gave me many years ago was to buy a property with few if any stairs. I have had 5 properties here, 4 at lakeside, and I agree with the stairs issue. Buena suerte.
  13. Will you pm me his address please?
  14. He told me I had to pay out of pocket for meds and GNP would reimburse me. It was a time critical situation. GNP did not reimburse me because the protocol is that the agent is required to order the meds thru GNP. Someone in his office was in training, like "Fake it until you make it." Speaking about healthcare costs here, Puerta Hierro del Sur is 5000 USD per night for a room. Best to have a Plan B.
  15. For the benefit of others here, if you drop GNP and then later want to acquire a new policy, GNP will not accept you after the age of 65. Excellent insurance although a local agent here dropped the ball on my one claim. His error cost me $5000 USD.
  16. Safety concerns on HWY 200, like much of Mexico, is fluid. You buy your ticket and take your chances. Probably safer than Mazamitla today. Who knows tomorrow?
  17. Not a challenge to your comments, but I am curious how was it determined that the trucks were CJNG? I was in Zamora a couple of years ago and they came into el centro with 20 trucks and CJNG decals on the doors and murdered some police officers. Bunch of meth head baby killers. I assume it was determined they were CJNG because they own the plaza here in lakeside towns.
  18. His history, from bankrupt at 59 to millionaire in a few short years. I remember Rob as humble and kind. You won't find a nicer person than Patsi. Rob Krakoff
