i still remember my first 2nd hand car was a toyota starlet... reliable as it is, it was a 10 year old COE car and i spend close to $14k on repairs and replacement parts...

ofcourse the repairs and replacement cost is much lower (if u do in JB even lower).... one must be reminded that the more expensive 2nd hand car you purchase e.g. BMW Mercs MINI Audi all have very expensive parts replacement and repairs...

Diagnostics on those cars can easily cost up to $1k even before you start repairing.....

14k :eek:. Can redo the whole car until swee swee liao. Think engine change one also can. :s22:

The more mechanical car comes much cheaper in repair... usually. When electronics are involved, its usually quite ex. Thus so with alot of modern cars. And electronics tend not to last long. Think more so in local weather.

no, the 13% drop is already considered the 15% contribution to Cat E.
these r only estimation, it could b less than 13% if dereg for Jun is higher than Apr/May.
