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.

  • Far Cry: A journey over two decades (PART ONE)

    I first came across the first-ever Far Cry game in the now-popular series back in 2004, the year of its launch. I was eight and wandering around the “Toys & Games” section in a department store (I believe it was Takashimaya) and the cover caught my eye. I’ve always been drawn towards First-person Shooter (FPS) games, and I thought I’d give it a try. Thus, I got my parents to buy it for me, and the second we got home, I loaded it up. Back in the day, CDs were still very much the norm, an

    This should be the true Singaporean national dish

    Singapore is known to be a melting pot of different cultures, races, people and of course, cuisines from all over the world. You can probably find food from most places here in Singapore, but we also have some dishes that we like to think of as our national dish - okay, google says there isn't an officially declared national dish, but Chicken Rice is one of those that's often mentioned. Yes, we all love Chicken Rice, but it isn't really unique to Singapore.... Nasi Lem

    Musings about the Pomodoro Method

    In a hyper-connected mega-city, where time seems to tick at a relentlessly brisk pace and where distractions are aplenty, pondering the art of productivity and focus is inevitable. In fact, it’s almost become a necessity. No wonder so many listicles have been written to point us in the right directions. Different methods works for different folks, of course, and when I was in my final year of university, I was introduced to a method that I regularly return to still: The Pomodoro Method, a d

    Why I bought Fanta Orange and hand carried it back from Germany

    - The curious case of the European Fanta - I paid 5 Euros for a small 500ml bottle of Fanta Orange and brought it on my carry-on bag, on a 13+hours flight to bring it back to Singapore. You might be wondering why; after all we can get Fanta Orange in Singapore - it's a Chinese New Year staple! BUT NO! European Fanta is DIFFERENT! From its colour, to its taste, the European Fanta is unique and better, and I would say it tastes closer to Origina (which is like the best fizzy orange drink
