Honda Vezel

[Anzz]

Bro.. All the cables are hidden.

Local price about $350-$380. I see the review not bad. Cheaper than Blackvue.

Bros, i found that alot if not all of the PIs are not allowing test drive. I mean if you are a new company or the car is new I'll understand but the car has been out for 6 mths.

 

If a PI is in for the long haul (supporting Vezel buyers for 10 years), a test drive should be the very basic. If they can't, it feels like a hit and run kind of sale then how can you even trust them for 10 years? Even helpful bros like Nitram can offer a test drive. I have made up my mind to not buy from any PIs who don't offer a test drive. I cannot trust them if they don't commit to selling the car.

 

What are your views? Especially bros who bought without testing the car.

heard swinging around using cobwebs string,is more convenient then driving.

No offence bro, if PI allow you test drive (new car without reg), the car you are getting might be a test drive unit too. Understand the feeling you are buying a car without testing it too.

Should i be expect to see you crawling around in all fours eating raw fish then?

They can commit a unit then sell it as a pre-own or tell people its a showroom unit. All the proper organizations do, whether it furnitures or cars.

My personal thoughts would be. Unless a PI purchased a unit of that model specifically for to be test driven. I dont think any PIs would allow test drives on new units. It wouldnt make business sense to bring in a unit of every model for test driving. If they did they would be as big as the AD of that particular brand.

 

Also If those cars are to be sold at a later stage. Dont think any of us would like to own a test driven car which we paid for as a new unit. I personally wont buy from a PI which allows test drives on new units. Who knows if i were to buy from them, my car could be the one being test driven by someone else.

 

I was lucky enough to have a friendly neighbour whom allow me to test drive his car. Afterwhich i made the decision on the Vezel.

I called 4 PIs 2 weeks ago only 1 allowed test drive. When i went down they told me they will then market the test drive unit as a showroom unit (sell abit cheaper). I think that's pretty proper.

Thats what they tell you. What they actually do is another thing all together. Just my personal thoughts.

 

As what some bros here do. If you wanna have a feel of the car in question. Try to arrange to see if any bros here would allow you to do so.

Yes i agree they can do whatever they want. But new car can check a milege? If you get a new car with weird milege something is wrong i guess?

 

It's not so much the drive but the commitment by the PI to provide a basic service (which is just a basic guage for their service level for the next 10 years). It's like you don't go to a restaurant to buy a bottle of wine and the waiter tells you to go somewhere else to test the wine then come here to buy. They let you test there and then, otherwise why would you buy from them?

I believe mileage on the gauge can be tempered? I might be wrong.

 

Well each PI has different workshops they work with for their servicing. I guess its up to the buyer to find out more on this. For example. The PI i bought from ties in with Comfort Delgro for they servicing.

Bros... Just do what u are comfortable with 😊

No right or wrong...

Everything just luck

Yes. Can be tempered easily. Sold my car and saw it being advertised shortly online with 20k km lesser than the initial.

agree with you, bro. little give & take is required.

my two cents.... the Honda brand is renown and have driven Honda cars all my life, so not having to test drive was not as big an issue for me.

 

even if the PI provides test drive, i figure they will only do it in the car park or driveway (?) and not along roads like the ADs; just thinking.

I was uncomfortable with this at first, after all buying a car is not a trivial purchase. But if you look at the business model of the PIs then you can kind of understand the reasons.

 

PIs generally tend to operate on smaller scale than ADs. Many ADs have buildings and premises of their own. PIs operate from shops/units in a building or a car mart. The smaller scale allows them to reduce overheads and therefore provide slightly lower prices.

 

To provide a dedicated test drive car incurs many costs, for example, parking space, temporary license plates, petrol, insurance, and lost revenue from the sale of the car at a discounted price. These costs have to somehow be passed on to the consumer, and this may drive prices up closer to the ADs and make them lose their competitive edge.

 

On the other hand, allowing test drives using cars to be delivered to customers is a big no-no in my opinion. I would be very disturbed if I found out someone else had test driven my car without my knowledge.

 

To me its fair game - as a consumer, we have a choice whether or not to buy based on the package of considerations, of which price is one, and service is another. In my case I chose to buy despite not test driving, it was a calculated risk, but thankfully I have no regrets.

Agree that it's all calculated risk. Now i have the cash ready but i just can't find a PI i can trust! Interesting situation huh? I'm feel like giving up go whack the CRV at Kah motors.

 

I said earlier that I visited a PI who let me test drive a test car. An S series. But when I wanted to test a Hybrid at the corner, he said it's a new car waiting collection so cannot. That's fine so i left and went for lunch but when i past by the place again, he brought someone out using that exact "new" car. It's a maroon colour hybrid. To bros who just collected a maroon hybrid within past 2 weeks pm me I'll let you know which PI...

 

How to trust right?

[chinaman76]

Any bros tried 65daigou.com?
