Most cars that are available in the Indian market are available in the global market too including the Nano which has been launched in Europe and the likes. So there is nothing surprising if you find a figo elsewhere. Between I am not sure about the website you have posted. Is it authentic and which place is this website from?

The website is from South Africa, for vehicle trading new as well as used ones. True, that many indian made vehicles are sold in other developing/developed countries. I remember Tata Indica being one of them, Tata exported specially made Indicas to UK and some part of Europe in 2003 rebadged as CityRover.

What surprised me in above link is that lots of Figos are available into second hand markets that too in SA!

Nakum,

I am surprised too. Figo was specially made for Indian market & was launched in India 1st. How come its available so fast in the 2nd hand market in S.A ?
