Cat A may end up being cheaper than Open Cat, but it depends. Open Cat allows one to purchase both A & B cars.

 

The 10k rebate refers to the scenario whereby usually COE may be around the 12k range. If it falls below 10k for some reason, eg. 8k, then the price of the car will less by 2k.

 

Full payment of a car is always recommended. Don't let any SE tell u any other nonsense. They just want you to take on their loan packages which earns them commission. So most of us who can't afford to pay full, will get a loan. But if you can pay in full for a whole car, please do so.

 

Please feel free to contact me anytime with regards to car related matters and I'll try my best to either answer them or direct you to the right person here in the forum who can do so.

 

Take note that Cat E is normally the highest (by $100 or so), yes can be used to register any vehicle, but also be warned that it takes on the value of the vehicle category it is assigned to.

 

Eg: If cat A = $1,000, Cat B = $2,000 then cat E may be $2,100.

 

If use to register a Cat A car, the value reverts back to $1k when scrapping car....

 

There was a couple of cases of people being caught out by this in last COE crash, got $10k plus cat E which was used instead of a $200 cat B (or some such - I can't remember the details)

Hi,

 

 

 

I'm a student from Singapore Management University embarking on a project in course, Technology & World Change. My team is intending to build a device which will solve the tailgating issue in Singapore.

 

 

 

As we all know, tailgating is a major cause for most accidents. Our device works like this:

 

 

 

1. A sensor will be attached to the front of the vehicle to detect the distance between itself and the car in front.

 

 

 

2. Once the sensor detects tailgating, meaning a distance of less than 1metre between 2 cars, it will trigger an alarm to the driver. To notify him that he is tailgating the car in front.

 

 

 

The full mechanics and details of our device have yet to be finalized. However, we'd like to hear from you, your views and takes on our innovation.

 

 

 

We hope that you guys can give us feedback on our innovation!

 

 

Please revert to us at [email protected].

 

Thanks!!

Hallo all, I am a newbie in this Forum so can't start a new topic.

 

Just wana start one on how to maintain a new car, the DOs and DONTs. Have searched but there seemed to be no such topic?

 

Now that we have the checklist, would be nice to have the experts sharing maintenance tips.

 

Thanks, and cheers!

should think twice before jumping the ship.... based on the depreciating prices of vehicles lately.... no longer an asset.... more of an additional liability....
