[Imp75]

I always thought we are a tad cheaper than HK but I guess I haven’t been following the hard facts

i like how the gov do it this time!!!! tax the rich more.... tax more for those who drive expensive cars...... and the best part is tax less for those who drive small cars... :rahrah: :rahrah: :rahrah:

Tiered ARF Structure

The tiered ARF structure is as follows, in a statement released by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) on Monday:

Vehicle OMV

ARF Rate
First $20,000 of the OMV 100% of OMV
Next $30,000 of the OMV (i.e. $20,001 to $50,000) 140% of Incremental OMV
Remaining OMV Above $50,000 180% of Incremental OMV


this is how the gov should do :salute: .... tax more on the rich and subsidize the sandwich class...... :congrats: :thankyou:

Agree!! :celebrate:

Aiyo! Just buy a 5-6 year old car lah. Plenty to choose from that are less than $30k. Better yet, buy a 2nd hand off-peak car and pay as you use.


Nobody has yet to explain to me why a family \"who needs a car\" must buy a new car and pay $90k+ just for a COE.

If the interest is at, say, 2%, then it'll be almost $20k for a 10-yr tenure. Just the interest at $2k per year is already more than what many younger car owners pay for income tax....no wonder our gahman think we are rich!

If cannot afford to buy or maintain this one, I really recommend taking public transport.

Pirate, this Nissan march really cheap. I thought my car was quite a good bargain but I guess this one is better. Anyway don’t know much about cars. As long as it doesn’t breakdown right in the middle of expressway, I m happy enough.
