How to physco my mother to buy a car for me?
-
1. tell your mother you'll send her everywhere she needs to go.
2. you wont have a girlfriend to ferry around forever. only her
these two should be adequate. assuring enough! -

Then she has dragged for like 1-2 months now.
For goodness sake, have a spine! Don't drive if you can't afford to.

Hi there,
I bought my Carens in July 2007, bought for $68,999, COE at $17,602. That time sportage same price as my car (or 1K more expensive).
Heard that Toyota Picnic is more "drink petrol" than my Carens.. as it is much heavier and the vvt-i engine not helping either..
:D

hee today drove my mum and she was like WATCH OUT!! STOP STOP!! =X CANNOT drive auto man.. at least manual each gear got speed limit den i will know how fast im gg.
Hi there,
Other road users horn me cos my 100km/hr = normal 1.6 saloon car 80km/hr.. I drove a Toyota Vios before.. 80km/hr like flying liao... hahaha..
It all depends on usage.. Some people go for car leasing.. so you do not need to be tied down with 1 car for at least 5 years or longer (unless you can buy a car full cash lar, no need bank financing).
Car leasing you pay slightly more per month (about 1k per month on a long term basis), but you don't need to worry about road tax and insurance.. cos the car leasing company help you pay that.. Maintenance the company also help you pay.. Means you only pay the 1k per month plus petrol. COE is usually included in car price when you buy cars..
They won't make you pay COE for renting a car long term. COE is awarded to car owners, to make them eligible to buy cars. Since the car not yours to start with, why need to pay COE?
Most Importantly, you have the freedom to change cars every few months (cos not tied down by any loan.)
But you don't have a vehicle that you can call "your own baby".
:D

Do you know how much a car costs?

I agree..
I saw an 18-year old poly student drive GTI and even Maserati leh.. Wonder how they get those type of money??
Rich kids i would say.. T.T

GO EARN MONEY URSELF...
even if got take car later, then who's paying for the car loans, petrol, car insurance, season n coupon parking, ERP, road tax...etc.somemore, just passed only... p-plate...
n for under the age of 26 or new drivers, car insurance quotation is much higher in excess than a experienced driver with No-Claim-Accident bonus/ Traffic Police accident-free records ...I totally agree on that.
TS should try to buy a car himself/herself.
Your parents will feel stressed if they were to finance the loan for your EVO or GTR.
HAHAHA

Hi,
If you want to buy Geely,
Might as well buy Perodua?
At least it's light and fuel saving. (using Daihatsu platform with Toyota VVT-i engine)
China cars a lot of QC problem. You save upfront and suffer later.

Yes, you can rent cars for a start, like weekends when you feel like driving or have some places to go to.
It's relatively cheaper and you do not need to think of car instalments, road tax, insurance, petrol etc.
Btw, for your info, petrol prices are rising again.
Not a good time to own a car.

The only car my dad had was a 1984 Honda Accord, which scrapped liao -_-

Hi there,
I do not understand your question?
Are you trying to know how much a car will cost or are you actually asking TS whether he/she knows how much a car cost?

n whats more... COE has shot up to a new high for 2009 to above $11 000 liao... since after the government decided to reduce the cars COE quota number since March 2009...
therefore, with the reduced quota number of cars even when now is poor economic state, the COE price is beginning to mark up to be comparable to when the time the economy is in good years like in 2006, 2007...Shucks....I don't like that...

hi,
Yeah.. I agree it's cheap.. But i heard from quite a number of people who are having problems with their 1991 make of Honda Civic ESI.. Btw, Road tax for that ESI quite steep, 1.2k, being a 1595cc car..
On the other hand, I don't hear of any people with problems with their Toyota Starlet 1991..
I was quite tempted to buy 2nd hand starlet when i saw it in sgcarmart a few months ago.. only selling 7,200 w full bodykit, rear spoiler, GT kits, quad headlights etc.
Starlet road tax only $588/year cos it's a 999cc car.

Problem is.... I dun buy now.... I fear by the time I save up for one...
COE go back to $30,000....

Not that i am scaring you,
But i believe that will happen.. cos LTA is on hand cutting no. of COE issued. The quota is dropping steadily.. so it will definitely drive COE to a crazy level.
Don't worry lianamaster.. If you can't secure a new car, get a 2nd hand. They have readily available COE tagged to the 2nd hand car.. :P
-
if you need to beg your parents to buy you a car, you can't afford the car anyway. Move on.
