Conti cars are more likely to have service interval reminders that need resetting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think sadly, that's the reality of life. It also happens to renovation services. It often costs more to renovate a private house/condo than a HDB unit, despite both services applied to both being almost equal:( Conti cars are more likely to have service interval reminders that need resetting. ahhh..not really.. nowadays, Jap cars also have the same..

Prataboy 3rd Gear September 23, 2019 Share September 23, 2019 (edited) Any bros familiar with the mechanism of selling cars for export? I recently traded my old ride with less than 18 months remaining to C&C (~$17K - paper plus $2K) for a new ride. Quotz valuation was $15-20K. Went to the Republic Auto website and saw that the car was going at ~$28K under their export bidding list. And today saw that it was no longer on the list - sold? $28K is quite a big difference to $17K. Almost $10K difference/profit! Would I have gotten such a price if I deal directly with an exporter, or the actual transaction price with Republic Auto is at a negotiated price than the $28K bid price?

You agreed and got the price you wanted.. $17K what price they can sell depend on alot of factors.. such as their network which normally we don't. Just like stock/share.. you sold at the price you ok.. buyer bought and sold higher.. this is life.. not all can make money in any industry.. Republic Auto had been around and they will have the know how to buy and sell higher.. if there's no mkt for it.. they won't be bother to buy the car even at $15k. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinceng Turbocharged September 24, 2019 Share September 24, 2019 The price that the dealer is able to sell depends on the demand overseas. For a car left with 18 mths COE, you should be able to fetch a higher price if you sell it yourself to a private buyer. Simply place an ad in sgcarmart. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
