Thanks all for your responses.

Ok, I will stick to v power/98 fuel for the time being. Anyway, with shell escape card + UOB one card, I get ~20% fuel discount which is really great!!

 

The stock 16â wheels really do not do justice to the car. It looks like someone wearing an expensive tuxedo/suit with a cheap pair of shoes. Iâm going to change it to 18â next weekend! ð I see they are a lot of replica Taiwanese Audi rims out there and they are priced just around $900 ish. Anyone here is using them? Can trust or not not?

Your car is on the higher price side, so just go for original rims.

 

U can go to Ray-S for Breyton, South East Tyre for BBS etc. They have many for Audi. Got a lot of other brands. They r located nearby

 

Rims are the contact point so to be safe, better not get sub standard ones.

U can go for 18 or 19". Even some golf use 18" now

 

Try southest or leong seng, they have many eur brands rims. Generally their finishing are better

 

Some replica rims can look a bit cheap

Some shops will carry original Audi rims are good price coz original owners upgraded. I got my original 18” from hurry’s at a good price of 700.

Better not ba. Audi leh, don't use replica rims.

 

The BBS SR cost like $450 per rim?

 

Or OZ Leggera.. light and good. $480?

 

After trade I think 2k plus nia with good tyres.

Prob 200 flip for tyre shop.

Lowball upgrader 400-500, sell 700.

Still ok price I feel.

Compare the stock 16" rim and a BBS 19" rim. The former ride is smoother and more quiet.

True but 16 is just too tiny imo.

Agreed, 16 inch looked too small for A4. If A3 still slightly acceptable.

Hi, is it wise to purchase an Audi A4 with a new 5 year COE? Car registration is 2009. Will there be major repairs needed?

 

Do advice. Thanks

Most people will sell their Audi after 3 yrs or after warranty period.. For COEed Audi , think u standby min 10k for repairs n top up accordingly..

In general u taking a higher depreciation for a 5 years COE compare to 10 years.

 

If not renew yet do consider 10 years instead as when the car reach 13 or 14 years old it may not make economical sense to do any major repair as COE cannot be extended further. This will result in even higher depreciation.

Wonder wots Audi strategy.

A4 pricing like see saw.

If u wan maintain certain level of prestige, u need to draw the line somewhere.

They have been like this since I first looked at the A4 in 2007. 160+ k can discount to 110k. Bad for owners if you purchased at the retail price instead of the discounted price.

 

Buying cars is based on your feel, if you like it, comfortable with the price, nego hard for your targeted price, bite the bullet and enjoy your ride. thinking too much would cloud your judgement and you might end up with something you do not like instead.

Even a 10 year old Toyota will need fixing. But Audi parts cost more so do put money aside to get that car up to shape. Or buy a brand new car and get trouble free motoring sans the “prestige”.

my friend did consider these 2.

 

on paper, doesn't seem like any difference in space. If im not wrong, both are using same platform.

 

Of cos, passat has that GTI engine. If branding doesn't bother u, ya passat looks like the better deal

Passat 1.8L. GTI 2L. How can it be the same?
