Get your 1st car FREE
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
For those who want to own their 1st car, it is a wise move to buy a 2nd hand car.
Example:
Buy a 15 years old proton saga 1.5i ( automatic , power sterling)
Cost: RM5000 (pay CASH)
Insurance: RM277.50 ( comprehensive), can even buy 3rd party insurance - cheaper
Old CAR?? Believe me, the maintenance cost is much lower than the interest payment if we get a new car!
Use the car for 3-5 years, and then only buy your dream car:
Example:
Buy a new Honda Civic 1.8 iVtec
Cost: RM113,800
Insurance: RM3225.90 , after No-claim Discount (NCD) 55% - we only need to pay RM1451.65
That means we save RM1774.25 every year onward of car insurance premium!
RM1774.25 x 3 = RM5322.75
So, can we consider our 1st car FREE?
