Trade-in for buying new car

Recommended Posts

Sorry I'm new at this.

 

Let's say I want to buy a new car. The dealer offering a trade-in value for my current car at 60K

The new car itself cost 140k

Currently, MAS limitation is that car loan can only go for 60% (presuming that OMV is < 20K)

 

So with the above, is the loan amount I can take 60% of 140k? Or is the loan amount counted after the trade-in (60% of 140k-60k)

Can the trade-in value count as the up-front payment so I don't need to pay 40% (56k) of the car price up front?

Yes, you can take 60% of 140K for the loan.

 

You have to fork out 40% for downpayment which is 56K, your trade in value is more than enuff to cover the downpayment.

I think if trade in 60k means they will price car higher at 200k n then loan 60% of that n down 40% which is $80k. You still need to fork out $20k assuming no more o/s loan.

Sorry, side tracking.....

 

I own an Axio but it's too small for my family. Thinking of getting a 2nd hand SUV that seats 6 - 7 pax.

 

What would be a good choice? Budget ard 80k.

 

Would crossroad be a good pick?

For ferrying passengers, an SUV is no match for an MPV … even when its a 7 seater, unless your passengers are small children … [nod]

For existing car-

trade in value = 60k

outstanding loan = ??

Top up or get back money after full settlement = ?? (60K - O/S loan)

 

 

new car = 140k

Downpayment = 40% ~ 56K

Loan amount = 140K - (DP: 40% ~ 56K) - (funds from sale of car) = ??

Sry TS to hijack yr thread cos I hv qtns rather similar to yrs...

 

If we scrap it ourselves, would we be able to get a better deal than trading current car in? Do we call in scrap operators or how? For those who have done it or have the knowledge, could you plse share cos I've read up LTA procedures but still want to find out other options. TIA for advice.

Daihatsu Terios 7 is another good alternative. Similar runnning cost as your Axio.
