shev88 1st Gear August 6, 2016 Share August 6, 2016 Good to see u are are content with topup. Still better deal than later buyer whom pay at much higher premium. Not like some folk in hoping they can still secure their ride with even higher paper value gain by not topping up.Unless they believe coe will drop to 50k or below by 8th bid Actually I think there's nothing wrong with topping up or not. Everyone's situations are different e.g some got car to trade in, some need car urgently, some prefer to collect car at a later date, some may want to top up at a later stage. Most important you know your situation well and strategize what is the best for you. End of the day, still a gamble, some win some lose. But I agree with you, just be content and enjoy the car and do not regret your move after that. I came to the forum not to compare but just to learn and share info. I'm sure you agree we can't totally trust what the SE told us and that is why need help with the experienced here :) ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margaux Clutched August 6, 2016 Share August 6, 2016 (edited) Congrats in getting your car :) which round of cat e did they give you Was Given Cat B at 55k. Good to see u are are content with topup. Still better deal than later buyer whom pay at much higher premium. Not like some folk in hoping they can still secure their ride with even higher paper value gain by not topping up.Unless they believe coe will drop to 50k or below by 8th bid Sensing that COE will go up north, topping up to secure the COE was an easy decision to make. 3rd week since collecting my car. No regrets. Edited August 6, 2016 by Margaux Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuzFXT 2nd Gear August 6, 2016 Share August 6, 2016 (edited) Need some advise from bros here.. Thinking of changing my wife car from a sedan to a cheaper suv and lesser power ... Our FXT is really nice to drive. But wife don't need the power and hence thinking of a less powerful suv. Any suggestion beside FNA? Qashqai is @ $103800 now. Is qashqai drive similar to FNA?

Vinceng Turbocharged August 6, 2016 Share August 6, 2016 @JuzFXT If one is used to the high life, they may not adapt well to a Commoner's life Your wife may not adapt well to the Qashqai 1.2 turbo which has just half the horses under the Forester XT bonnet Better that you get her a 2l NA SUV like the Qashqai 2.0 or Forester 2.0 NA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get XV.. Ditch the QQ1.2 la CX5 interior is the cabin size of XV... Only boot is bigger, bigger than FXT. CX3.. Think smaller I was thinking XV but the ride height not as high as forester right? Vezel or vezel hybrid lor. The sheer numbers is driving me crazy.. Lol... Vezel.... like you say too many... so not really considering already hence left with either XV or Qashiqai...

mrhan1982 4th Gear August 7, 2016 Share August 7, 2016 Nissan mmmm... IMHO has the shitiest CVT..Their xtronic cvt is actually pretty good at fc. But it's pretty retarded and can get confused when going down slip where it will keep the rpm high and u get the undesirable engine groan. Subaru's cvt is a lot smarter and responsive.

They put all their hopes on their cvt technology which they r so proud of. It's pretty good already, but still fall short when compared to others. Sad...
