Mojoe Neutral Newbie October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 It is definitely a looker and a good car... The SA I spoke to mentioned that the higher road tax and poor FC are the 2 main reasons why people shunned away. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 Actually its the low OMV for the price, but now they have revised the pricing.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Neutral Newbie October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 What's the OMV? 28k +/-? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 Trend was around 22k.. But now that they have dropped the price to less than 95k (i think)..its not as bad.. A pity its not popular, cos its such a nice drivers' car Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samshio 2nd Gear October 22, 2008 Author Share October 22, 2008 according to salesperson, FC is same as my focus. I guess conti cars all eat fuel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Neutral Newbie October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 which Focus are you driving? He told me 7-8km/l ... worse than my 04 focus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 Actually disregarding the OMV, i dare say it drives better than a 159 Worth it for the composure, handling, comfort and steering. Seriously underrated in SG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribeca Neutral Newbie October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 "The SA I spoke to mentioned that the higher road tax and poor FC are the 2 main reasons why people shunned away." What higher road tax ? If in market to buy a 2.4, its the same road tax. Look at sticker price vs OMV, compare other 2.4 with mondi. Work out if worth it to bite the bullet. Its a nice car, handle well, drives great. (The price has tumbled quite a far bit since launched.) Some ppl buy car, with heart, less of mind. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Neutral Newbie October 22, 2008 Share October 22, 2008 when you sell it later, it will matter a lot... with the current economic situation, if you like it go arm twist them... I doubt they are selling many mondy even now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
