STA kena CPIB probe for bribery

[Mustank]

maybe tree drop, monkey run away

[Alheych]

like that how to trust STA evaluation grade A pre-owned car?

[Nkps]

I dont understand why ppl like to mod thier cars.

 

Why dont they just buy that better car ?

becoz not everyone are so lich like u mar.... by adding mod, over a long period of time is more affordable than buying a better car

[Ichibawa]

those who dont understand why people mod their cars are probably not petrol heads themselves

 

Its not that we are not petrol heads but the fact is that if I own a Mitsu GLX, it doesn't make sense to buy parts and built and EVO out of it. It will be more cost efficient to just get the EVO than risking getting caught with illegal mods.

exactly

if the staff can take bribery for mod-cars, they can take bribery for any other resale cars - mod or original

the test report they issue for each resale car inspection is not trustworthy anymore if the accused staff are charged and found guilty

still want to charge $120

blardy hell

Will this means that those inspectors will now be super strict?

Anyone kena fail for small things like misaligned headlight?

 

 

[YellowFlash]

simply no $$$. so buy a Mitsu GLX...mod it till it look like a EVO race car.

also can buy a impreza, mod till it look like WRX.

 

if got $$, they will buy the real thing

 

wrong...even if they got money buy the real thing, they will still mod if not you won't see so many evos, wrxes at garages and garages like ST power, LTM, GR can close down already... its more of a hobby or passion.

[LoverofCar]

the driver can always say illegal modifications were added after inspection

 

or illegal modifications were removed before going for inspection and restored back again after inspection

 

so you cant really tell if the inspector did hide or not, cos it could have been a very different car during inspection

 

 

if the samething happened in the same inspection centre and the same group of inspectors?...isn't it fishy?

I'm sure also have some monkey business going on....

some dealers can also bribe them to give an A grade.

[Celicar]

Even before I bought my car, I was already told that some inspection centres' ratings are more 'credible' than others. I'm not surprised this centre is being probed.

[Alheych]

STA used to be the 'final say' in whether a car can be bought or not. now what?

[Little_prince]

accept bribe die.... give bribe also die...

 

some one is gonna get promoted from this mess

Ya, finally someone who understands....modding is a way of self-expression, some may mod more on aesthetics with all kind of bodykits, rims and stickers until cannot see wad is the original colour of the car, other focus on performance and thei engine bay look like accesories shop, some can spend $10k on ICE and louder than Zouk, others put so many bling inside their car they never need to on their headlights....at the end the owner mods it to his liking.....for them, a totally stock car seems to have no personality....

[Introz]

Modify legally might as well don't mod. Save the money lah!
