Those who bought car in 2013, lip lai!

[Zxcvb]

During 2013, COE was around 70-80k. Few times went over 90k. Have you decided to scrap current car and buy new one??

[Columbian78]

I bought in 2014, coe cat b $70k. Wasn't very happy with car so kept looking at other new cars. Heck I still looking at new cars  everyday now, latest desire is new V60. But never seriously going to do it. Just keep on modding slowly over the years until now very happy with car never think again.

I didn't buy in 2013 but i also come in to kepoh. Those who bought BnB car then at 90k coe , now can scrap the car , get back aboout 50k coe. Plus 75% of arf refund. the money is good enough to buy a new BnB car to drive for 10 more years with small to pup .

still holding on, to the car, car + coe = shit price..

your car is about 5+ years,  balanced COE worth about 40K. 70% ARF assuming about $14k . That means if you drive on, you lose about 11k per year depre. might as well scrap it to get back the money and buy a new car, which will get you same depre or lower depending on what you buy. Because now your COE write off is more than 8k per year, whereas if you buy a new car, COE write off is about 50% of your current write off only.

 

Now that i reference back the other thread of yours, I understand why you mentioned scraping of your current ride.  if the COE continue to stay low or even lower, it is a viable consideration for your case knowing your car has some problems.

It's not about how much lost if change car, it's about how much u topping up to get a new car that will last 5 more years. If sell a high coe car n need to top up 30k to buy a new car, it's spending 30k to drive for another 5 years. Why not?

Accident or fire?

Why don't sell to dealer? I believe selling price will be above paper value.

Ya must add in bank interest into the depreciation unless next car full cash

Dont know le. Suddenly his car disappeared and checked that his car de-registered liao.

Think I can start sniffing around next year, hopefully COE still remain low. Gonna fully paid up by end of this year, with 6 years to go for current COE not including this year.

The paper value of the car is about 11k annually just considering coe plus parf, no dealers will buy it at this price. One option is drive on, the other option is to scrap it. And scrapping it is a viable option at current coe price.

Which dealer so willing to take in high coe car in today's context??
