RogerNg_185295 6th Gear April 30, 2019 Share April 30, 2019 I book my Blue Horizon SX Aug 2018. And I got my Cerato mid of Oct 2018. I paid 86,999 non-guarantee COE. Once COE secured, my SE informed me swiftly when I will pickup my Cerato. I'm switching from SPC 98 back to 95 cos no different I think. And I find my Cerato pickup ok. Plus, this car road holding and corning very much better than my old 2008 Forte. In addition, my Cerato has service in Panada and Leng Kee. The service at LK not that bad. The people at LK never scratch your car? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same same, I’ve compared between Caltex 98 and 95 on my SX, not much difference in performance. Just use 95 and save money 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeanNg 1st Gear April 30, 2019 Share April 30, 2019 Please check with your SE.Oh ok, on paper they stated latest by June, what can I do if they exceed the timeline they stated?

Tscar44 1st Gear April 30, 2019 Share April 30, 2019 (edited) Oh ok, on paper they stated latest by June, what can I do if they exceed the timeline they stated? Can I forgo the deal and get back my deposit? I also secured my code In early April. On paper also wrote latest by June. Checked with SE and he told me that he was unable to guarantee for June collection. Shipment by the Koreans and not within his control. Just have to wait I guess. I don’t think you can get back your deposit if you forgo the deal. There must be some T&C protecting them. I think unless we are unable to collect the car by October then perhaps deposit can be refunded? But then, the bidder COE how I’m also not sure. But I think by October sure can get car.

Will4081 2nd Gear April 30, 2019 Share April 30, 2019 Guys, base on your experience can I check I gotten the COE (April) for my new car (Kia cerato sx) likely when can I get the car?It would be quite a trouble for them if your right to COE lapse. I had the same question and my SE told me they will always allocate you a car in that case - you’ll jump the queue if needed. For the June timeline, when did you book ? They are usually conservative in their estimates and give an estimated delivery 4 months later. Your SE cannot guarantee but if they miss it you can negotiate. Get more accessories, more service credits, etc...I’ve heard a few SX orders were badly delayed and they’ve been upgraded to GT line free of charge - there is one on this forum. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sian 1/2@KeanNg Take it as a blessing. You just saved $5,000 : ) The GT Line is just some cosmetic enhancement, which you can do after market for much less. So don't feel sianz. You didn't lose out much. Resale value isn't going on be much higher than the SX. Edited May 2, 2019 by Vinceng Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
