Stock car no scare! Sin Ming Vicom! 🤣

Ok my field report.
As compare to all my experience in this test center, this time round abit more detailed.. maybe is this uncle HIGH standard.. he check car body like he collected a NEW car.. wah biang.. open every doors and inspect the door frame with touch light.. very throughout in his job 👍

the rest of the mechanics are friendly.. younger too..

and now GO Green! Never print result n paste the “u paste i remove immediately” vicom sticker liao 🤣

so if u got a naughty car.. skip this center.. 

Sadly this be this car last inspection.. next year hand over cert liao...

Coke can aluminum. This one is iron. Reborn as rebar. 😂

but Suzuki parts are more ex than toyota. But somehow the lower depreciation vs toyota and Honda helps some.

Time flies, both mine are 3+years too. Now cannot find COE car at this kind of depre anymore. i wont hesitate to do the same if COE will to go back to 20+k to 30+k level😁😁. But worry about it 6year later. By then i would have retired, maybe buy a new car to accelerate my retirement spending.🤣🤣

many led are cheaply & poorly made so the risk of blowing, flickering & short circuit is there.

This is exactly why we want to avoid this kind of inspection centres with siao on testers, even if the car is stock!

15 year old.. don think can afford another car.. now is in survival mode.. not the car; but my wallet! whahahahahha..

The original intention for this Swift is a bumper car to let my son and daughter learn to survive on Singapore road. Daughter passed Jan this year.. so another 1 year or so to let her practice! whahahahahahaha..
