The appellant was bound by an implied contract to keep the respondent’s vehicle safely for a reasonable time. The respondent’s lack of follow-up did not constitute legal abandonment. The appellant’s sale of the vehicle was improper, and compensation must reflect the vehicle’s proven value. The trial court erred in finding negligence but was correct in awarding compensation, though the amount should be TZS 80,000,000, not TZS 25,000,000.
