MAS reviewing guidelines on car financing, Motoring News, Singapore Cars, Guides & Articles - STCars

I just realised, this is a repeat of 1995 !!!

Note the date of the article.

Whatever policy changes there are in place..one thing will never change...

"The most common practice is for motor traders to offer a higher value for a trade-in vehicle (if there isn't a trade-in, a scrap certificate is used in lieu). The 'overtrade', as it is called, is then imputed into the invoice, thereby facilitating a bigger loan for the buyer.

Most deals are struck discreetly

Re: MAS Imposes Financing Restrictions on Motor Vehicle Loans

Humblebrag: I paid for my Vespa with a stack of $50 notes, still warm from the ATM. That's the only definition of "paying in cash" :yummie:
 
Re: MAS Imposes Financing Restrictions on Motor Vehicle Loans

Wahhh... Owning cars now can only be in the dreams now to many Singaporeans...
I think when from now onwards I see BMW with carplates starting SKK++ I would salute them..
COE high+50% loan+ 5 years max... Icecream leaw~
Siao leaw... Even own a car now when COE expire also hard...
Mine is a BMW 325 E93 2009 with OMV 62000 if I'm not wrong.
10 years go "tai chai" get back 31000++
Buy back same model around 300000
cash upfront 150000-31000=119000cash..
If I come out 100k cash, IRAS will hamtam me or not??
or Renew COE if it really WILL fall to 30k???
Jialat leaw... Better enjoy my joy of driving these 6 years...
PS: Thank you to my friend whom "saiko" me to buy this car and dispose my old E36...

Note: Values are just estimated and no research is done... so dun flame me~

Moving the discussion forward... if MAS backtracks oops I mean tweaks its rules from 50%/5 years to say 30%/7 years, would policymakers then be:

a) listeners who are adaptable and sympathetic to the people's concerns; or
b) inconsistent flip-floppers who didn't do their homework in the first instance?

I vote B...

i am pretty sure.. 50%.. 5 years will be relaxed when all the central banks slow down their printing press...

Re: MAS Imposes Financing Restrictions on Motor Vehicle Loans

yesterday I was too free, so went to volvo and audi showroom walk walk...it is amazing how quiet the showrooms are.

Anyway, I honestly think the 50% loan might not affect many of the big car buyers. Coz some times back when paying for my downpayment in cash after office hour, my se just take and put in her handbag, like tissue paper like that. Seems they are very used to carrying a lot of cash around...
 
Re: MAS Imposes Financing Restrictions on Motor Vehicle Loans

Typo... from 50%/5 to 30%/7. Like the good old days!

Who cares! Immediately run to show room and change car before they change policy again....
