unless its a single owner and low mileage contiThis one is confirmed. COE cars already will cough. COE conti will cough and sneeze and fever.

Well the engines need to rev to get the power out, normally 3-4000 rpm then can feeling power starts coming in lolThis type of car is buy and loot 9696. So FC is on the high side. Simple logic!
Get a Lexus IS250. I got one with only 12000KM with only 1 Owner throughout the 10 years and well maintained. Very little maintenance required.
Petrol consumption if you pedal well and know the roads well, can read 11.5km/l .
Imagine a car with 2500cc that can reach this kind of fuel efficiency.
Car is a RWD so handling is excellent, power is more than enough as you will accelerate seamlessly.
Noise insulation consider quite good.
Sorry TS, don't mind me asking, anyone got any experience with a COE Toyota Rush? Thinking of getting one, will be driving it around quite a bit, maybe about 200+KM/day. How's the fuel consumption like for a 14 years old+ Rush?

Older audi's especially Coe renewed one now mostly come with multitronic (cvt) instead of dsg (s-tronic).
Avoid the multitronic/cvt ones - they r prone to failure and cost a lot to replace. Also provide a lazy driving experience typical of cvt gearbox.
Was looking at 12-13 year old a6. Guess have to drop the idea. The heart say yes but...Older audi's especially Coe renewed one now mostly come with multitronic (cvt) instead of dsg (s-tronic).

10 year Altis + COE for 60k (6k/year) considered good or bad deal?
Alternative is new Avante for 98k (9.4k/year).
Accelerating too hard when u-turn... good luck to RWD cars.RWD doesnt necessarily mean handling is good.
11 year onwards, every year must go inspection + road tax will increase up to a max of 50%. Conti parts don't come easy, you need a workshop that can find/source parts when you need. Importantly is you can still drive while waiting for parts.Was looking at 12-13 year old a6. Guess have to drop the idea. The heart say yes but...
I don't think CVT have issue. Drive a A4 B8 for 2 years until Coe end and did not encounter any gearbox issue. If you inside WhatsApp chat group for A4, generally you don't see CVT having issue.
Personal dislike of CVT does not meant CVT sucks leh..You're lucky to get a good unit . Did previous owner replace/repair his CVT?
I see many advices in MCF to avoid multitronic-equipped Audis because the CVT tend to get problems above 100k mileage.
I also drove a CVT car many years back and would not drive one again, because the gearbox feel very lazy (e.g rubber band effect). Not sure if Audi manage to eliminate this lazy feeling for multitronic
True, but for a Jap car is considered good without any mods.RWD doesnt necessarily mean handling is good.
Road tax is high but the trade off is good power + good reliabilityNever believe in the mileage for a 2nd hand car if you buy from a used car dealer. Almost all have been modified lower to boost the selling price. IS250 road tax for COE cars can be quite high.
