Slayer88 1st Gear August 26, 2019 Share August 26, 2019 Honestly, im very unhappy with the whole treatment that they are treating me. Let me run through the full story. So bear with me for the long text. i sign the agreement on 30th july by trading in my family car peugeot 308 left about 3.5 years at 70k sgd and the price of the jaguar se is 175k with the conditions of 6 ng bids. But i can back out if 4th bid is still not secured. But during that period, the agent keep ask me to top up 3k so that i can get the car immediately, i told him bro, i already sign the agreement, why did you ask me to top-up. This is not something that i like after i sign. So he counter offer me to topup 2k. Again, i am fking tulan, i told him, if you wan lets do 1k since my peugeot also due for road tax renewal at that time. He say cant, then i told him forget about it. Towards the date of first rd of bidding in August, i ask the agent if he had done the first bidding for me, he say loan haven approve so cant bid. But on the very same day, ocbc called to say that wearnes just submitted the loan application and they will be approving on the same day. But still agent say cant bid and this will not be considered as 1 bid. So i suck thumb. On the second round, i asked the agent if he is bidding, he say ya, just submitted to management. I asked him how much is he bidding and if he is bidding under my nric? Cos i check my nric, i dont see any bidding at all. So i checked if he is bidding under open cat for me? f**king hell, keep need to ask him for updates. In the end after the bidding end, he never even tell me that he is bidding under my name or company name and he told me that they bid at 36k. He say maybe can ask management for open cat. But also never get back to me on this. So i told him off that based on july 2nd rd coe bid when i sign the agreement, the coe is hovering at 39k. So technically, you should be bidding at 37k as you wanted me to top up that 2k difference at the beginning for me to get the car earlier. So why are you bidding at 36k. He say he will work on it with the management. Knn make my blood boil man. So now i bo bian suck thumb, just need to pray hard coe keep go out, so either he suck thumb give me a higher coe cat b without topping up, or i will get back my deposit after the 4th ng bid. Should i head down to their office to kao bei? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they wanna sell u the open cat coe (which they have on hand) at a higher cost. When u top up, they immediately can give u the coe and register to you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should i head down to their office to kao bei? 1st, from sales volume point of view, Jaguar is not even a 2nd tier main stream car in SGP, they are not even in the league of sales volume of Audi or VW etc, but they make it like people are so hard up for it. 2nd, their margin is so insane that they make at least 40k to 50k per car, yet they dare to asked you for 2k or 3k top up after sealing the sales agreement with you! They are shamelessly greedy , unethical and exploitative. With that kind of miserable sales volume, I thought they should be very keen to deliver every car that they could possibly closed, but it looks like they are driving their confirmed customer away. Unfortunately now you are bound by their sales agreement, otherwise, might as well walk off, frankly, 170k gives you lots and lots of other better options, there is no need to show them you cannot live without this brand. If I will you , either ask to cancel the contract, or, tell them to bid slowly, you are not keen anymore, once lapsed, go next door buy another brand and go back to show them your sales agreement. Meantime, continue driving your family Peugeot. All the best. Edited August 26, 2019 by Ct3833 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over-trade easily $20k more than market price... probably not a real `loss' but much lower margin hence trying to fish some $$ back as you mentioned. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should just put on poker face and play waiting game with them. If they don't want your biz then just take back your booking fee go buy another car. No big deal 😁 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering 8k depreciation and 10k PARF, your 308 is only worth 38k, and that is being super generous. if I am in your shoes, paying $2k, collect new Jaguar and move on with your life is not a bad option. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
