SGMCF328 Turbocharged March 30, 2019 Share March 30, 2019 Used too... Still miss that car May I know any major issue with the car? It is worth getting one and renew 10 years COE? Thank you. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But quite regret, my picanto serve me well till the 9yrs plus before I trade in. If I renew for 5yrs the PQP is abt $25k fir 5yrs n parf only $2.6k, now is good timing to buy new car... BTW mine is manual car, can trade in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
teomingern 6th Gear March 31, 2019 Share March 31, 2019 May I know any major issue with the car? It is worth getting one and renew 10 years COE? Thank you.No major issues... it's a nice little runabout car for simple commutes to work and back and for errand runs... it's a good second car for going to work and switching to a larger car like an MPV for the weekends or drives up north for the whole family including grandparents...

BTW mine is manual car, can trade in The low scrap value and PQP make it attractive, at least to me now. But seems many dealer are advertising with 5 year COE, actually 10 years make more sense.

Thank you for your feedback. :) I am considering to get a relatively cheap car to drive around when needed, and this Picanto seems to fit my need and budget. Let see how things go. Still have a few months to decide. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have a few months to decide. During that time, the pqp is 54k.If now the pqp for 5yrs which is abt 13k, I sure renew. Even park at mscp most of the time also OK. Daily dep only less than $8. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
