Now times are bad, you can see new or used car can even loan almost 100% now or zero down. so the strongest one will survived.   th ose who lose their money to this dealers  will need to file civil suit.

Just curious, if you loaned a good portion of the car price (even 100 percent, even though you're not supposed to) and the dealer doesn't deliver, who's on the hook for the money? 

You've signed the hire purchase agreement with the bank or finance company but they have a lien on the car and they've disbursed the money to the dealer. Whom do they go after? Buyer or dealer?

Using the loan calculator to calculate, the 1.99% interest will be
$50,000 @ 1.99% over 10 years = near $60,000 with monthly installment of $500.

I also recall that there is a loop hole where if there is zero % downpayment, the bank has no recourse to get you to pay if u defaulted. Not sure if this is plug

Banks or FI will only disbursed the loan when the vehicle is transferred. 

So no issues if the vehicle is not transferred, no liability for the new owner if its on full loan.

This actually makes a compelling argument for 100 percent loan with riskier transactions lol. I know I'm in the full cash capital of the Internet. 😂

If, as the other poster says, the loan isn't even disbursed, it's not fair or (more to the point) profitable for the bank to come after the buyer for anything other than fairly nominal admin fees.

Instead of addressing the main problem of not transferring ownership, the boss still dare to ask CASE to apologize to him. LOL!! Maybe the buyers should bend the knee kow tow to the boss ala Jover Chew case.

"On customers’ claims that Karz Automobile had failed to transfer vehicle ownership records to them, Mr Yeo said that he was unable to comment on the status of the transfers as these were handled by another employee."

After big cases with publication in the news, the Director still had not figured out what happened.  This is rather amazing 🙄

Till now ACRA, MAS, IRAS, LTA, CASE still being lead by the nose by these fly by nights ah bengs setting up 2nd hand car businesses with intention to cheat? 

While normal abiding citizens and businesses are being hounded and toeing the line. 

Amazing...... This just give credence to the saying that public servants just go for the lowest hanging fruits.
