Can a car be repossessed if it is located in another country you drove it down to Costa Rica and the engine blew you can't afford to get it repaired?

First,I am an American who did business in Costa Rica for 23 yrs. If the company who sold you the car wants to spend about$30,000 in legal fees, transportation costs, several months of "tramites" or red tape, yes they can repossess the car. The figure above is a conservative figure. fiber123@hotmail.com

Do people get kidnapped in Costa Rica?

when it happens it is usually by locals to locals or by local ethnic groups to one of their own

kidnapping foreigners for monetary gain is -thankfully- not a practice that Costa Rica is known for

of the kidnappings that I've followed in the news this year most involve some type of prior relationship between the victim and the perpetrator (gambling debts, drug debts, etc.)

chances that you'll personally be kidnapped here are slim to none (especially now that you Americans have NO money!)

Are scorpions in Costa Rica deadly?

Ancient Egyptians were forever assassinating their enemies with scorpions, but the Costa Rican species cannot be used in this manner - they have very weak venom. Like spiders, scorpions have a tendency to crawl into dark spaces. Hotel rooms, beds, and piles of clothing are where we generally make first contact.

A sudden sharp sting from somewhere in your pants can often be attributed to a small scorpion. They crawl in during the night and can react grumpily when they discover a human in their bed. Removing your pants in public is really the worst thing that can happen. If you do get stung, you may feel a bit of local numbness and a strange metallic taste in your mouth, but the symptoms subside within an hour or so.
