Hello Author

 

I personally own an OPC C-Class. I didnt win it in a lucky draw.

 

I have an OPC C-class because first of all,

I have more than 1 car and a motorbike which I drive to work.

I have no need to drive it on weekdays. Furthermore due to the nature of my work, I cant drive it to my workplace even if i wanted to.

 

Thats why

Could also be due to work nature? Maybe the person works from 9pm to 5am so he only drives at night. So y not save that bit on road tax and insurance also.

Errm coz some of us own more than one car so a lack of convenience isn't a factor??? Might as well make use of that 17k for something else to improve our quality of life.

Sorry to intrude, actually they do that not because of the monthly installments, but its actually the 'road tax'. OPC Road tax are much more cheaper than normal plate cars road taxes.

 

Just imagine an evo normal plate road tax is $1210.00

OPC evo road tax is $710.00 only

 

The diff is $500.00

sadly most people who find $200 000 opc cars silly and cannot stand them are the people that can't afford $200 000 cars.

I dont see anything wrong. Yes the price difference is 10% per month. BUT its STILL 17k.

 

17000 is 17000 no matter how you look at it.

 

17000 can buy a nice watch.

 

17000 can pay for a first class ticket. (I think. lol.)

 

Doesnt mean you got money means you should carelessly spend it.

 

If you think OPC is sufficient for your needs and driving habits, why not?

 

If you need a regular plate car but if you cant afford a regular plate luxury car so buy a OPC one, then you probably didnt make the best decision.

17K is not just all the rebate you get. not forgetting the cheaper insurance, road tax.

  • Tennis: Beautiful game that doesn't know how to count

    Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).  There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is

    Motorcycle riding is a sensory experience beyond the exhaust

    Riding a motorcycle is like taking your nose on a wild adventure. You're cruising down the road, expecting to smell nothing except exhaust fumes and perhaps rubbish, when suddenly - bam! - you're hit with the mouthwatering aroma of sizzling char kway teow from a nearby coffeeshop. Heck, you might even catch a whiff of someone's fancy perfume as you zip by. It's like your bike has magical powers, transforming an ordinary ride into a sensory rollercoaster. It's these unexpected olfactory deli
