Honda Vezel

[Throttle2]

The existing Tucson doesn't look that appealing I feel.

 

Its quite dated compared to vezel. Ever considered sportage ? I really like it.

 

 

 

Yes Kia sportage not bad but i recall i was put off by the chrome door sills?

 

Existing Tucson looks strong but yes its already a few years old so definitely not as updated a look as vezel. However, the bigger engine gives more power which is my preference.

 

I dont know, maybe end up with an ML350 or X3 or Q5 in the end......but the Vezel is a nice looking proportionate car and can save so much money.....hhhhhmmmmmm..

 

How about new qashqai? Anyway no hurry at all, my wife's car COE til late 2008

Hybrid is priced higher because it's Cat B COE. Same thing applies, if the CEVS rebate is increased from current levels, price will adjust accordingly from current listed.

Bro..PM me and we chat?

Waaa... cu2 also a family car leh

 

And its a totally different animal. I'm sure u will miss it

Actually family car for a start. It's more utilitarian and saves alot for running costs. Ran my numbers. Will save between 2.5-3k on petrol/rd tax/insurance per yr. For comparison basis with cu2,i add that to depre numbers. Gd outcome. Also planning for the next real family car..most prob MPV. Wife car slaughtering in 1yr time.gotta start saving. More of a financial decision too. CU2 is a lovely car. Next owner sure love it. Huge space! My weekly manually calculated mileage is 11-12km/l 50/50 city n expressway driving. Amazing for K24 engine

Just did the paint protection yesterday on my white Vezel. Was really impressed with thier service level... The boss explained in detail on the whole process and clarified all queries I have..

Whole process took about 4 hours during the time the boss also shared with me on how to maintain the car.

Thier after sales service was also impressive ... I saw some marks on my rim this morning and I texted him. He then called me immediately to find out more... N just awhile ago, he texted me asking for my home address... He's sending his team over to redo the rims !! Very impressed

Highly recommended !

The company name is Opti-shine located in Mackenzie Road

Hi all

 

collecting my black vezel this coming Monday....will update after collection if all is well. :)

Bro hows the power compared to civic? Can get used to it?

 

I drove the 2007 Civic before switching to Vezel. Personally, I feel that Vezel tends to sway to one side a bit more when cornering compared to Civic. Probably due to higher CG.

Mcmxii, I have not run in the engine yet, hence, I could not commend much about the power. Try not to push the RPM pass 2500. Nevertheless, my initial feel is that the car seems to drag a little at pick up. My wife felt it as well when she drove the car. From that observation, the 1.8 Civic fares better in this department. Having said that both car have different transmission gearbox. CVT on the vezel tends to drag at lower gears.

For those who preferred to buy from AD, just spoke to a Honda SE yesterday and was told HRV will be on display by end Jan 15 and shipment will arrived in March. Pricing range from 120-130k.

TAX STRUCTURE FOR CARS

This page provides information on taxes for private cars, company cars, rental cars and tuition cars.

For cars registered on or after 1 September 1998:

Registration Fee (RF)

S$140

Additional Registration Fee (ARF)

130% of OMV¹
110% of OMV²
100% of OMV³

Tiered Rate:⁴

Vehicle OMV ARF Rate First S$20,000 100% Next S$30,000
(i.e. S$20,001 to S$50,000) 140% Above S$50,000 180%

Example:
The ARF payable for a car with an OMV of S$75,000 will be calculated as follows:

Vehicle OMV
(S$75,000) ARF Rate ARF Payable First S$20,000 100% 100% x S$20,000 = S$20,000 Next S$30,000 140% 140% x S$30,000 = S$42,000 Above S$50,000 180% 180% x S$25,000 = S$45,000

Total ARF payable is (S$20,000 + S$42,000 + S$45,000) =S$107,000

Certificate of Entitlement (COE)

* For tuition cars registered in the name of non-individuals using COEs obtained from March 1998 tender exercises and onwards.

CARBON EMISSIONS-BASED VEHICLE SCHEME (CEVS)

The Carbon Emission-Based Vehicle Scheme (CEVS) takes into consideration a vehicle's carbon emissions and fuel efficiency to encourage consumers to shift to low emission models.

Cars with low carbon emissions will qualify for rebates, which are offset against the car's ARF payable. Cars with high carbon emissions will incur a corresponding registration surcharge. Cars are also subject to a minimum ARF payable of S$5,000 as models that have relatively low ARF payable and are in themselves fuel-efficient, do not need to be further incentivised.

The CEVS rebates will apply to all new cars and imported cars registered from 1 January 2013. The CEVS surcharges will be implemented from 1 July 2013.

The CEVS is valid till 30 June 2015.

Details of the CEVS bandings for cars are as follows:

CEVS BANDINGS

Again from LTA data basic car cost you can see for:

OMV of $19,154
gst of $5,440
Tiered ARF Payable $19,154 (because OMV is less then $20K - no additional tier charges)
At the moment Before yesterday CEV announcement change Vezel CEV is Band A3 ($10K)
Reg Fee $140
Excluding COE, Dealer Pay LTA $33,888

Total Car Cost X + Y + $33,888.
