Collected my new car

Collected my new car after a break of not having a car for 10 years. This car was actually ready for collection on last Friday evening but due to the car salesman negligence, I am not able to collected it in time for the weekend.

Monday morning I call up the saleman and even though it is his off day, he is willing to fetch me to the showroom to collect my car. I think he feels bad about it when I told him that it is ridiculous to take such a long time to prepare my car for collection.
He fetch me at about 5.45pm to the showroom and I collected my car after signing some documents.
The car is in very good condition with no problem at all and after sticking on the season parking coupon and did a final checking, I drive out of the car park at around 7.10pm.
Very please and happy with this car although it cost $2000 less than the price that I paid for my Yamaha FJR1300ABS motorcycle.
Diana and Wai Leng were very happy that we finally got a car and both of them went down to the car park to check it out and sat in the car for a while just to recall the time that we last had one.
They are looking forward to taking a drive in this car.

Booked my new car

After considering for many months, I finally visited the car showroom at Bukit Timah with Diana and book a small car.
This car is from Perodua, a Malaysian company, name "Kelisa" which is a 1,000cc small compact car. This is currently the cheapest car in Singapore.
I will be registering this car under "Off-Peak" use which means I will be getting a cash rebate of $17,000 from the sales price. I will be paying about S$18,900 for it on the road.
This car was considered mainly because of the little money involved and very low fuel consumption. This car features 3 inline cylinder, 12 valve, with fuel injection.
I have chosen a gold colour car and currently waiting for it to be register.
