Renault Fluence - Good or not?

[Fook Seng]

Bro, must it be a brand new car? Don't you feel heart pain when kena scratch here and there or kena dent? 100k budget can get you some good 2nd hand cars. When I was younger, everything must be new. Nowadays different. Bought a 2nd hand E200 then sold it off and yet didn't lose a single cent. Made some money.

Agree with you. Need be a new car. A one or two year old car can save you 25 to 30% on the cost of ownership. Anyway most people are driving a car that is like 3 year old, whether they had bought it new or old. So what is the difference,

Age lah bro. When I was much younger, same same. MUST have new car. Owned 5 new cars before. Always very careful when driving. Other cars come close, very nervous. Park car must find corner lot. Kena dent heart very painful. Those were the days.

Now I suka suka park anywhere. Backlanes in Geylang also bo hew. Cars come near also don't bother. Dents doesn't bother me anymore.

Pls lah, my 1st choice car cant even sian a woman, I need a car to bring my family around, especially my mum, she cant walk long distance.

My budget is 100k, i dun like to buy common cars.... something different is nice, so i looking at other brands like Kia, Renault and Citroen etc etc....

If it is for chasing char bo, there is a cheap two-seated, mid-engine looking (but not mid-engine), sports car design Kia. Don't know the exact model but should be reasonably cheap.

Please do not shatter my dream leh. I was eagerly anticipating the hotel appointment.

Then be the invisible man. Cover yourself head to toes in white.

Thats the Cerato Forte Koup, not what I wanted lah. For 100k, there's not much to choose for a Sedan car, Renault Fluence and Megane, Kia Cerato Forte, Honda Civic, Toyota Altis and Vios, Hyundai Elantra, Chevrolet Cruze and Mitsubishi Lancer

What do you want us to comment? Price or reliability?

Sunroof top

The one I am referring to, foldable top.

Not practical in S'pore. Daytime too hot and humid. Night time security and privacy at risk when doing night performance in car.

Like that, now only left one choice, Proton. Still not as common as Toyota and Honda in SG.

Faints.....

 

[laksaboy]

Proton is actually a decent car that many Sinkies despise because the looks are not fantastic, or they look down on it because it's made in Mudland.

It gets you from point A to point B, doesn't break down often, handles well and has an okay fuel mileage.

What more do you want?

Keep the money and come to ROC. For the same amount, you can get a very uncommon car like this:

 

[Alamaking]

What car are you driving now?

Colt Plus, but sold it last July. If its a 2nd hand car, then I will budget it to at most $70k, dun think its worth it to buy 2nd hand car for 100k? -.-"

 

[Froggy]

Hell where the f did I go missing this thread about Toyotas. LOL. Must be my slow brewing of my fish maw soup that made me miss this.

Anyway Alamaking "I really don't know what to say" 100k and so little choice in Singapore, please la I not suan you but I really don't know what to say about buying cars in Singapore now a days. I think better go for a reliable car la. Korean car looks very nice like the Hyundai Sonata or even Elantra. I was told reliability is right up there on the top.

I was never a Toyota guy always Nissan and then Lexus in between conti and once biten twice shy no more conti for me ever that's how I discovered Lexus. But Lexus here in Thailand more expensive than Singapore so could only have an RX now. Next month they are launching the new GS damn itchy already but got to jai-yen-yen buy a pickup truck first mid-year then think of the GS later.

Even Corolla and Camry in Taiwan is much cheaper than in Thailand and these are made in Thailand, fucking car companies in Thailand making lots of money.

But in ROC parking lots are a premium. When you buy condo in ROC, parking lots are sold separately. The going rate is TWD One Mill.
