Was hoping for significant reduction in COE price rather than a major crash, so that car prices will adjusted down low enough to entice commitment to a new ride. :D

LTA has reduce the bid deposit to $5k, so does it mean that if the COE on Wed is $18k, do you have to top-up $13k to LTA within a certain time period?

Or the $5k is used to offset your car price when you register the car?

You are bidding yourself?

 

Yes if you got the COE than you just need to top up, if not the 5k will be refunded to you.

 

But no difference if it's your agent bidding for you. You just pay him as what is agreed upon in your sales contract.

You will only need to pay up the differenced (18-5=$13k) at the time when you are about to register the car with LTA.

No certain time period, maybe before the COE expire lah. I am not sure will LTA ask you to pay up the difference of $13k if you let the COE expired after 6 months.

 

If the successful COE price is $1000, then LTA will offset the $4000 differences in the various ARF and taxes.

Basically, use the $5k to book the COE and then pay the rest of the $13k when registering the car...

Which must happen before the 6th month else the $5k deposit got eaten...

This wed one bidding, next wed another bidding... Quite tight time-frame for 2 biddings...

 

Typically, getting a car from AD with self-bid COE doesn't save much or end up have to pay a bit more right?

Other than saving on guaranteed bids and get visibility compared to 6 bids... Not much benefits for AD cars...
