Curahee 1st Gear August 16, 2011 Share August 16, 2011 My friend who is a car engineer tell me that in europe, US their servicing is not as frequent as spore, ours every 10k km, for them 50k km etc. He say spore car wear and tear very fast due to our driving style here (lots of breaking and accelerating) hence car parts get break down very easily and need to constantly service at every 10k km to change parts etc. For europe and US, no such case. Hence these car may not be suitable for city driving in a long run, not really a reliability issue. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence these car may not be suitable for city driving in a long run, not really a reliability issue. Well, the general driving condition in Europe and US is long distance driving. There's hardly any city traffic. But our climate also plays a part in how our engines here run as well. Actually 10k km is a bit kiasu. Can stretch to 15k km or even 20k km, but sadly, this may void some warranties here.....=( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula Turbocharged August 17, 2011 Share August 17, 2011 My guess is not much change, maybe fluctuate by 3-5% from last bidding.... Enough orders at hand but tempered by not so good news on the economic front Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTan 2nd Gear August 17, 2011 Share August 17, 2011 If car buyers slow down....then might drop. But looks like VW BMW Mercs all very hot sales. They are fighting for the top, they have ample profit margin to fight, compared to the Japs and Koreans cars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
