17 CONCLUSION
GETTING AFRICA INTO GEAR Overcome the overreliance on second-hand vehicle imports Address insufficient vehicle finance options for new vehicles. Design and implement an automotive policy that enables competitive operating environment. Import tariffs or age restrictions on used vehicles aimed at stimulating demand for new vehicles. Africa vision designed and implemented in partnership with industry stakeholders. Encourage SADC member states to participate in the SADC FTA. Duty-free access to large export markets is beneficial to the consumer. Regulation of grey market in partnership with industry stakeholders v Africa Growth is inconsistent, uncertain and timing is also unknown. v This makes investment decisions more difficult. 18
