No government position vehicle should be changed until after 5 years of service. And when higher postitioned vehicles are replaced it should be passed down to others within the ministry for another 2 years after which it should be sold at auction to the public. As a country we are not getting value for taxpayers monies spent on government and ministry vehicles.

before they reduce fuel subsidy they should also do an audit of fuel usage by all state agencies
incl helicopters
many govt driver vehicles in ministries sit idling whole day with papers boy relaxing inside

Have to be a lineup that includes ultra luxury SUV's, such as porsche, lexus, BMW, Mercedes, or Audi or VW IMO. On ah real, I feel Volvo could make a comeback... Damn fine cars and would throw opponents for a loop. In some people's perception it would be easy to say look at a porsche and ask why they are spending so much money just to have a slick SUV, but people might think twice about commenting that A Volvo is excess as they are still regarded as durable, sensible vehicles and not in the upper echelon of "bling" as the other euros. Personally I always thought my first euro would be a volvo... then came the pug

In all honesty I have some hope that this new government will cut out all this nonsense of luxury vehicles and show the electorate that they are different from the previous regime and that they will start with making a real change and lead by example.

People voted for a change so here is hoping there is one. 90% of government places needs nothing more than budget Tida. Before they cut services for citizens, raise taxes etc they should start with government vehicles.

I would recommend 1000 foreign used B14 with the latest number plate.

I don't mind them getting luxury vehicles, once they are fit for purpose and it is a fleet package.

With regard to all the black Prados that the various government ministries seem to have lying about in droves, weren't these purchased for the hosting of the Summit of the Americas and CHOGM in 2009?
IIRC, this was the designated vehicles for transporting heads of states during both summits.

Correct Prados went to Ministries and Mazda 6's went to police

I didn't understand where tv6 was going with that tidbit. It's a 5 year old vehicle they inherited, one of few that didn't get write off, at least let us get value for money for it.

In terms of maintenance for a 5 year old vehicle with lots of mileage is it even worth keeping these vehicles much longer?

I just hope this government sets an example for future ministers. Spend wisely, get the job done for less. I have faith that they would, Dr Rowley spoke too much about managing the affairs of this country and wild spending. I do not believe he will go down the same road as the cabal and buy all these useless expensive vehicles for no good reason. He knows people voted for a change and I believe he will hold up his end of the bargain.
