I'm thinking of buying one for afew months and scrap it... course I need a car ownership cert to claim car allowance. you will probably get back zero dollars if you drive it til the end of coe intrinsic value is almost nil... you'd be lucky if you didn't have to pay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of buying one for afew months and scrap it... course I need a car ownership cert to claim car allowance. For your case, i would advise on calculating the cost of depreciation instead of getting back how much. Even if you get back $8k also means nothing, as you could have paid $20k for it. On the other hand, you may have gotten back just $300 for a car that you paid $1k for. How-ever, to answer your question, no export value. If the export value is higher than the price it can fetch here, all the dealers would have exported it to reduce their inventory. Why get their funds tied up. Personally, its a last ditch attempt to squeeze who ever that comes along. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon777 3rd Gear February 8, 2011 Share February 8, 2011 (edited) can anyone advise me what are the basic required stuffs for scraping? HU, spare tire etc? Just drive in to the LTA approved scrapyards. No HU, no spare tires, doesn't matters at all, they are stripping down to bare body or half-cut body and sell the parts to 3rd world countries. Since 1995, I think I have already sent 5 (10yrs old) and 1 (15yrs old car) out of my 12 cars that I had owned over the years to the yard. This coming May, I be going with my friend to the scrapyard to scrap his 10yrs old $101 COE paid Nissan Sunny. I told my friend that I make sure I go with him to the yard to scrap his run-down car and not let those dealers renew COE and con people into buying. Also help to recycle to the new COE pool 6 months later. But, pls make sure go to LTA to get your cash rebate if any immediately after that when the scrapyards issue you a letter of confirmation of scrappage I really hope to see those 1992/93 model Civic/Corolla out of the road to the yard when their COE expired in July/Aug this year, really a eye-sore, has been close to 20yrs on the road. No flaming pls coz I do see people renew another 10 yrs COE till 2019 when PQP was low at $2K to $3K+ but now want to ask $20K for their 20yrs old Civic/Corolla. Good luck to the next buyer of such cars Edited February 8, 2011 by Amazon777 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to the buyers man. Really blood suckers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
