justbeckss: RT @Donhangani: Vitz owners always buy extra size D batts. 1 set goes into a flashlight & the other goes into the car #AVitzIsNotACar gainsaid: Toyota recalls all Vitz's. Returned units will replace paperweights  at Toyota HQ #avitzisnotacar donhangani: Knock, knock! Who's there? A Vitz.

Hi Al Kags, Its interesting that the comments here leave one to believe that the Vitz is imported directly by Toyota East Africa [TEAL]. At TEAL we sell the Toyota Yaris; An equally compact vehicle, that is much more technologically advanced than the Vitz; great fuel efficiency, great safety features and lots of room; with a tropicalised chassis for Kenyan Roads. we have a unit for 1.3 M. if anyone is interested in a brand new off the showroom Toyota Yaris…  Am thrilled by the comments on your blog, and am interested to know what people think of the other Models of vehicles under the Toyota Brand.To start us off, how about comments on the Hilux Pickups range, Toyota Corolla – 10th Generation; or the Camry for that matter? – Benda Kithaka; Toyota EA  A vitz is not a car…it’s an experience…How can brands leverage “word of mouse” or social buzz…- MbuguaNjihia

Editor's Notes

  1. “People who do surf the Internet for fun at work – within a reasonable limit of less than 20% of their total time in the office – are more productive by about 9% than those who don’t,” Dr Brent Coker, from the Department of Management and Marketing at The University of Melbourne. “Employers reserve the right to monitor employee use of social media regardless of location
