Backside itchy want to change car.

[Yuan]

my previous ride, 3.5 year hitting a 150,000 km mileage.

 

your ride is still relatively new....

 

Yup. Agreed. My current ride is in its 4th year and mileage is hitting 120k plus mileage.

 

I am not doing sales to clock such high mileage but vehicle is fully utilized.

[Yuan]

And the car is still reliable? I got the skeptical feeling of cars over 100k mileage. Like anytime will fall apart. So my threshold is 100k plus must change car liao.

 

Not sure about others but my car is still reliable after 100k mileage.

 

I had seen cars of my model past 200k mileage and still going strong.

 

It is about one's upkeeping and maintaining the vehicle and of course, keeping yourself off the temptation of backside itchy and wanting to change......

 

Rather than putting my money on a 4 wheel machine, I rather put my dollars into properties and have some passive income along the way.

one good prevention is -> don't go for test drive.

Actually 5.5yr 190k is 35k per year.

For normal family and work use is not overly high if you live far from work.

 

I think I will also keep my car until COE ends.

No point changing unless deal is sweet enough.

And for my next car , i will buy a low priced Jap SUV to bump around.

any1 who owned a beemer will know pml is here to rip off ur wallet just like audi, design is so outdated like 10yr ago, merc is a bit more value for $$, lexus is still nowhere near merc

 

just consider this

 

authorised

bmw 320 - 200k

c class - 169k

a4 - 190k

 

But you don't own a bimmer right? How come you know?

 

btw, the 320i is selling around 180k.

c180 kompressor is 169k but with old 1.6l supercharged engine and old 5 speed auto. The c180 CGI is around 179k.

Audi A4 1.8T ambition is selling around 179k before bargaining. Advertised 169k is with high loan and interest rate.

 

Prices are very competitive among the 3 brands. Or are u comparing to other cars?

[Crashburner]

The additional cost is holding me back, although it's comfortable for me now. Am I the only itchy backside here???

Agree, if you don't have intention to change car better stay away from showrooms and test drive. Keep yourself away from temptation.

[Roh96]
