The Senate recently passed through a bill – currently under review at both of the Chamber of Deputies committees – allowing for illegally imported vehicles to be legalised.
Mr Flores said that unless custom controls – when introducing used vehicles into Mexico – are stepped up, the local market will be flooded with ‘garbage’.
