i dont think you will get any constructive answers here since ppl here buy new car w/o loan. j/k.

It might be better to check with the dealer or banks for the actual loan period and interest rate they are offering. Good luck.

I have heard that for car that COE has renewed, the maximum loan tenure is 5 years.

Hence if the renewed COE car is left with 6 years for example, the loan can only be taken for one year (since max loan tenure for COE car is only 5 years).

 

if that true? 

I do not think its true. When I bought my previous car which was a COE car, left 4.5 years, the dealer wanted me to take a loan. I did not take the loan.

less than 40k can get you this car for about 4 years usage too and get some cash back on the last day.

100% loan and less than 10 years old car

I heard it use toyota engine.

Anyway to TS, since you will be servicing the monthly instalment do consider leasing? Newest car and free from maintenance headache.

Might be a better option for you.

Even for COE cars, officially still need to downpay 30% and the rest can be loaned. Interest rates are 3 plus percent minimum from banks. If you take Dealer  in house financing Usually from financing companies like xxx credit might be able to downpay less but your loan will be higher with even higher interest rates. 16 year old  car should only  try to consider Japanese/ Korean cars to minimize  potential maintainence issues.

Hi all,

I am planning to buy a COE renewed car (First registered on 2005). It was renewed for 10 years (until 2025) . Hence this COE car is left with 4 years.

The selling price of the car is 40K. My question is can I take full loan 40K with 48mths tenure?

Any legitimate advise for this?

Yes you may do so. Been there, done that. If you are cash strapped, you can even take "over loan" if you know where to find. Car dealers are your best friend for these. When you take a full loan, be prepared to pay these fees on top of your standard first instalment, transfer fee, road tax (if expired), insurance:

1. Football money aka admin fee (some claim to waive this)

2. GST on your car loan amount 

These amount can add up to 5k or more. Some people are cash strapped to the max such that taking out $1000 can have a major impact in their lives. The car dealers can add these miscellaneous fees into your car loan by inflating the car price, so that the 70% becomes (40K + miscellaneous fees). However, be prepared that the loan interest will be anything between 3.18% - 5.98%.

Effectively, it becomes $0 driveaway if your loan gets approved.

40k loan for a 16yr old car doesnt sound financially right

We all know it, but we do not know the circumstances of TS. He might need a car for his job, yet cash strapped. In MCF, 99% are full-cash-buy-cars. There is still the remaining 1% peasants.

If it's a bread & butter car, legally you can loan up 70% of the $40K with 4years tenure. Means still have to put $12K downpayment. But seriously, $40K left 4 years for a COE car is NOT a good buy, plus all the old parts wear tear replacements etc. My friend renewed his Vios for 10 years at just $30K. I'd recommend get a 6 year old 2nd car car instead. 

My 5 cents.

Buy a car that has less than a year remaining COE left. Pay full cash for it.

when it is due for renewal. You can take a loan of up to 7 years to renew the COE. Many finance company offer full COE renewal loan. Just google for it.

Interest for these loan are not high. Max about 3%.

a sample below

Firstly, congrats bro.

Must be a luxury car based on 40K for 4 years.

Ensure you have a good history of this car as no longer coe is allow after this 4 years.

The interest rate should be higher for full loan (est above 3% avg)

You can scout around the market for the best interest rate, cheers

 

Well... this didn't age well :D
