In Singapore, the purchase of any type of car is a major undertaking because of the great expense compared to other countries, particularly the UK and the US A Olda A car that, in local terms is equivalent to a little more ten yearsâ is in the same category is true, there is considerable depreciation in the real value of the car, but there are also potential pitfalls of wrecks and radiation being liquidated as solid supposedly kit parts However, just to confirm a point, yes, you can buy a car that is more than ten years â finding with guaranteed hard that's because someone buy a car in Singapore has to pay for a large number of 10-year certificate of EOC law in Singapore add acronyms to get the car first and then pay the same huge amount almost always tens of thousands and now hovering around 40K s-30 s after ten years is up There is a limited quota of Centers of Excellence awarded each month by the Land Transport Authority of Singapore and the MLT almost lways demand exceeds supply, pushing the price until a case can also be hit relatively â and Missa, with economic changes affecting the price by tens of thousands per month, much like stocks and shares You can find a more detailed explanation of the WCC as well as current guide prices for cars here WCC are 10 years, it is advisable to ensure that the car has a center of excellence for 10 years as a car with a 5-year center of excellence that has expired can not be renewed.
Why is it difficult to find a car more than 10 years with a guarantee.
After ten years of driving their car for the restart, many people simply opt to buy another car through trade in the older model rather than trying to get a ten yearâ life out, as may be the case elsewhere old cars are often sold to other countries for parts and for this reason people have suggested that the inner parts are built with 10 instead of 20 years of life in mind, because the owner is likely to get rid of the car at that time.
Road tax is another consideration Although smaller, the sum will also always be in the thousands, and again people, once the car reached the magic age of 10, it becomes increasing more expensive Tax exponentially from the 10th year onwards, 110 in Grade 11, 120 in the 12th and so on up to 150 meters of the 15th year from the LTA provide facts and figures for you to work the cost for private vehicles based on engine capacity here.
To make sure you are not buying a  Duda car that was abused in an accident, or deal with any misadventure, it's best to get any potential vehicle you want to purchase verified by experts â which the Automobile Association of Singapore ASA appears to be the best option their homepage is here and click here for more details on the evaluation of vehicle.
As for car insurance, again, AA S seems to be a reliable option Details of the two insurance plans they offer can be found here Otherwise, a suggestion would be to ask a few friends or colleagues with a car insurance company they use and get an idea of preference by word of mouth.
