virgin post in cars.
im planning to buy a car be it 2nd hand or not.
based on the market now, what car is decent for an 18 yr old poly student earning 600 a month?
no need to get the flashy kind even though i like those convertibles.
a decent car will do.
any qns please post.
im turning 18 next april. -
get the starlet featuring in Mocca ad.. i think will be quite cheap for u to pay with 600 a month..
-
yaris
or fit -
600 bucks a month can't support yourself. or barely make it only. unless your parents gonna support u with down payment, insurance, maintenance fees, petrol bla bla bla.
if u really want cheap, get the old lancer, around 50k. or maybe a chinese car? tend to be cheaper. -
Buy a pick up truck...

onli earning $600 wan get car? wait for a few yrs when u get a decent job la... insurance, road tax, fuel, parking is enuff to trouble u... better spend tat amt on cab... -
wow.. earning 600 buy car?...
my friend earning 2k plus also hard to get a car....
unless of cos.. ur parents sponsoring much of it -
$600 how to support a car?
you still need to pay
1) insurance.. around 2K+++/yr,
2) road tax (depend on the capacity of the car),
3) petrol ($200 to 300 per mth)
the above 3 is coming to $600 already....
if u really want a car, at least have to set aside at least $1K & above.... -
okay thanks. unless anyone has any suggestions.
i can use this excuse to get a bike instead.
dont get me wrong. i love my cars girls and money. but i think a bike is more practical for me. mum thinks otherwise.
"danger la boy! later you kena accident then how?!"
still love those cars though. my dream when i was a small boy was to own a convertible. -

pls for christ sake there is no way you can maintain a car with 600/mth, even if you spend all your earned money on it.
i suggest you start with a 125cc bike lah brother... -
Well I think you need to set aside roughly 1.2k a month for a car including all the insurance rd tax etc.
Maybe you can invest in some finance saving plans first ? den get ur car when u get a job after u complete your studies? -
600 monthly? lets be very realistic, u cant even fully afford the car at all each month. u will probably go into debt, even for COE cars.
a bike would be a better idea in ur case -
YES YES YES!
hahaa i have managed to convince my ma that i cannt afford a car nxt year. so like it or not im goin to take a bike.
do we have a bike forum here? recc. me a bike to buy
no rxk please. not those old kind. yamaha was it? hmm... -
600 a month u can NEVER afford a car...
Installment, insurance, petrol, parking, erp, fines, servicings blah blah blah...
But.... u should get ur licence first.
and 18 is too young for a car.
Don't get urself into debts. -
Reverse psychology on his mom. xD

forget about owning a car wif 600 bucks per mth. unless u dun need to eat everyday drink from water cooler. -
To Ts,
i did some calculate before...
but not worth it.
ETc 1 car 1.6A cost 70k
1st thing is getting car loan first (without it no talk 10yrs)
2nd thing is to pay 10% downpayment on the car
3rd if u are 18 year old ur insurance sure high one.
set aside
Road tax about 400-500 per 6 months
insurance 3k per year
maintance about 200-500 per 10- 50k km
petrol (15km/1 L average 200-300 per month)
season parking 100 at multi storey carpark
dont talk about fine, take as shopping parking 100 per month
the one i hightlighted in red is the most difficult part
setting about 8k first then monthly i set $800 still very very hard
