Work out your monthly
Flat rate estimate for guidance. A longer tenure lowers the monthly but costs more in total interest. Your actual rate depends on the bank and your approval, so message me for a firm quote. More on this in why the cheapest monthly is rarely the cheapest car.
Comparing with a cheaper car elsewhere?
A lower depreciation does not always mean a cheaper car. Some cars are priced lower but come with a higher loan rate, and the extra interest can cancel out the saving.
| Car A | Car B | |
| Price | $100,000 | $95,000 |
| Depreciation per year | $18,000 | $17,000 |
| Loan rate | 2.48% | 4.5% |
| Interest over 5 years | $8,680 | $14,963 |
| Cost per year with the loan | $19,736 | $19,993 |
Car B looks $1,000 a year cheaper but costs more once the loan is counted. Ask for the loan rate before you compare. Example uses a 70% loan over 5 years with a $10,000 PARF rebate.
Warranty on this car
Cover ends at the time or mileage limit, whichever comes first, and is confirmed in writing before you commit. Servicing packages are listed on the warranty and servicing page.
Viewings are by appointment. I am not always at the office, so book first and I will make sure the car and I are both there. How viewings work.
About this car
Three owners and 130,000km over six years, which is high both in total and per year, so budget for wear items from the start and price that into what you are comparing it against. 48 months of COE left. The 1.4 turbo runs a seven-speed dual clutch rather than a conventional automatic, so drive it in traffic on the test drive and see how the low-speed shifts feel, which matters more than usual on a car with this much distance behind it.
