jeuda SG Hi guys, Intend to purchase a car. But I need to do my maths for financing one. Anyone has any template like excel file to share? Perhaps can elaborate the fees, maintenance I need as per month/year. I also appreciate if anyone can share his/her experiences when purchasing his or her car.... TIA!
T.Ryousuke SG Road tax $950 Insurance $1200-$1700 Car park 90x12=1080 Petrol est $200 x 12 $2400 Basic $ 6k on usuage alone. excl ERP,coupon.
rmyfrm SG Once I was at Shell, and the counter-girl told me my petrol bill was $174. I The last time I pump I paid $98 for full tank - I was so shocked that I asked her what happened i.e. how come petrol price doubled in one week! Turns out that she selected the wrong pump .. guess what car? BMW 7-series ~ I'm not familiar with cars (no idea which model) - but boy can that car drink ! The owner was behind me, and he had a good laugh at my reaction. felt so country-bumpkin-ish
Rock^Star SG How abt dents, scratches, parking fees in city and outside city, servicing costs. These can cost another few hundred. Then also if wana zhng the car, buy car polish, wax, tyre spray?
Rock^Star SG don't worry dude. If i were u, same reaction too and i would know that it's not possible on 2nd thoughts. Where got car pump until $174? Unless it's 7 series or s-class or euro sports cars etc.
hobochua SG i have a very simple way of calculating the cost just make sure u have double the amount of the car u going to buy in the bank.E.g. 30 k cost so save until 60 k Life is always full of dreams..Grab it Don lose it, Have faith
