But wait, have you checked if the car has any unpaid traffic summons attached to it? Surprisingly, this is a step that most used car buyers would miss on. Excited car buyers will find themselves facing a roadblock when they realise that JPJ will not transfer the car to them as the previous owner has outstanding traffic summons that has yet to

The actual cost of owning a car is a lot higher than just your monthly instalments, and we’re not talking about insurance or maintenance, itself already a big chunk of a car’s total ownership cost. Beyond maintenance, depreciation is the biggest ‘cost’ for a car owner. However, very few see it that way because it’s not something that you feel until you have to sell your car. It’s like losing money on stocks; it’s paper loss until you actually sell it, which you have to at some point. Remember th

Forget your Bugatti Chiron or 740 PS Volkswagen Golf, the Ford Focus is in fact the fastest car in the world. That’s exactly what an Italian woman woke up to when she was sent a speeding fine claiming she zipped past a speed trap at 703 km/h in a 70 km/h zone. That’s almost the cruising speed of a Boeing 747 and probably broke a couple of rules, so she was fined EUR 864 and docked 10 points off her licence. Putting two and two together we know that it’s caused by a faulty camera, but bureaucracy

As Malaysians, we like to squeeze as much money out of everything we own as possible. Cars generally depreciate 20 percent of its value in the first year of ownership. After that, the value of the car would drop 15 percent every subsequent year until the 10th year. By the 10th year, the car would be worth 10 percent of what it originally cost when you bought it. But depreciation value also varies according to car brands and models, as well as the geographical location, i.e, if you’re living in S

While some warning lights may seem unimportant, it’s good to know what they mean and how to react next. Usually, warning lights illuminate whenever there is a problem with one or more of your

Sales of new cars and spare parts for motor vehicles are the single largest contributor in import and excise duties collection, eclipsing tobacco and alcohol products. How much taxes do car sales contribute to the Malaysian government?
