It is supposed to be covered with car insurance similar to test drive car. Past one page and no one answered the TS' question - whether there is such an insurance clause limiting the distance That's all he is asking and by knowing the answer he can assess whether the dealer is an honest person. My thinking is the same as yours. When the car is still with the dealer where got insurance one? Insurance is only arranged when the buyer takes possession of the car. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seller ok to send to vicom/sta nearby, but because I got a personal workshop at tuas so ask whether can send there which was declined by seller, citing reasons that the insurance for the car does not cover such long distance away from the shop at ubi. Personally I don't mind reimburse the petrol for the distance la, but just wondering really got such thing as insurance for the pre-owned car does not cover such long distance away from the shop? Possible why not? New car got a few fixed test drive route, out of route insurance dun cover Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, I've only met one honest used car dealer and he's not our resident dealer who also specialise in massage, jippun tour, how to kill the beloved mil etc 😁 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen proper repairs done according to the manufacturer by Borneo appointed workshop. The quality of the work was very good. Very tough to tell that the front support bumper brace was torn off and replaced. Even the panel seals were done as per factory. I saw it done midway and the final product. I was impressed. unless you know where to look. It was very difficult to spot, especially once the engine bay and supports gets dusty with use. Agree but as i said ," major " accidents, minor bang and repair not so much a concern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even if the car is driven to Tuas, most would the pre-purchase checks are also done visually without using any tools. Anyway, its a second hand car. One has to be realistic. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
