Santiago Chile Day 3 Dec 11 13

 

Early start across the city by Meto sub….2 lines…then a 20 minute walk to the Dealer…..2 hours wasted my contact no longer employed there and they have no Euromots in stock. Another long walk back to the Metro and back to a Dealer on Lira St that we first talked to…well I should say Antonio as Yo no espanol which is making Antonio somewhat annoyed……He bargined a deal for cash with helmets,licence, insurance and all paper work for 1 million 20,000 pesos….bike was 930,000 of that.

It was a long tiring day for me as my back is still not up to scratch……or maybe I am showing my age….SUCKs. Hopefully tomorrow we will be able to get these funds from a bank with our debit cards as usually you are limited to so much a day. They don’t want to deal Visa at the Dealer.

Tomorrow the adventure continues as we try to get the cash for the motos….
